  2. Devnull no! Please, don't put yourself down like this! You're honest to heck probably the most widely recognized person on these forums! That's something to hold onto, I promise <333 I see that you're not comfortable talking about yourself. That's okay, I'll tell you a little bit about me, and hopefully that will help you feel more comfortable, and if not, well, we can still just chat. Okay? :) So for the past few years, I've been really into board games. Stuff like Settlers of Catan and Bang!, though I can certainly appreciate a classic game of Boggle too :3 You ever play any board games? Anything you like? I'm always looking for recommendations :)

    I mean, it's definitely the latter part, yes, but there absolutely are environmental/economic considerations that go into them too...

    How about we stop completely subsidizing the corn industry so that we can stop stuffing everything with high fructose corn syrup and maybe 600,000 people won't die of heart disease every year God, Central-Western Nebraska would just disappear. Like, there's only 6 people living there as is, what would they do if farming were suddenly not profitable? I thought we were paying a substantial amount in farm subsidies so farmers do not grow as much corn and other food intentionally. Or do I somehow have it backwards? That's a separate thing. As I understand it, the US government subsidizes crops so that corn tends to be more valuable to grow than, say, wheat, which is why the rural midwest is basically just cornfields. They also subsidize a certain number of fallow fields to manufacture a reasonable supply:demand ratio and to prevent overfarming leading to things like the Dust Bowl. Disclaimer: I'm not a farmer, I just live here. I definitely don't know the specifics.

    Well, if it takes you 60 seconds to reboot into and out of a different OS every time you play, then you only need to play 1,201 times from now on to have a benefit! That's only 3 1/2 years if you play every day! :P

    This is a false statement and no amount of evidence to the contrary will prove otherwise

    God damn, people are gonna have to stop bringing up ways that Trump can be beaten in the election/denied by the college/impeached/etc because it just makes me more depressed every time it doesn't happen. *sigh*

    I mean, technically Murphy's Law also says all the good things happen too. Like, it's more about "lots of people will use it and all the edge cases will be hit" than about "Everything's gonna go wrong!"
  12. Honestly, who cares. Like, do we need to always ban people? Does that not become passe, at some point? This thread has run for over 2000 pages. What can we say that's new and interesting as a way to ban people? It doesn't matter. Just like. Let's chat. How are you Devnull? I honestly feel like I barely even know you, even though you've been such a big personality on this forum for so long. I wanna get to know *you*, not just the persona you've made.

    The question is, should I report the original tip.it admin for posting an advertisement outside of the "all advertisements go here" thread... Hmm...
  14. Talk is cheap. I'm still postin' here, so obviously you aren't really takin' action.

    Counterpoint: Wasting 2 vacation days to non-voluntarily go to the hospital and have cameras shoved up your ass is probably a lot worse.

    Agreed. When it comes to non-citizens, you open a whole other can of worms as well. For example, the US is currently waging a completely illegal war in Syria at Obama's behest (it was never sanctioned by congress); not to mention drone strikes in other countries. As I understand it, America hasn't been in a war since ww2. Everything since has been executive actions, even after the maximum 6 weeks or whatever that the president is supposed to use to seek approval from Congress. Source: my high school Poli sci class Interesting. I'm pretty sure congress authorized the Iraq War, though (not that they should have). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_Resolution That's also where I went as soon as I got home and could do some actual research :P From that wiki article, it looks like my polisci teacher was correct: America hasn't "declared war" by the legal process since WW2. Authorization being a different process, if only by legal semantics. I mean, honestly, I'd probably count everything on that page as a war, and would probably also say that congress supported all of them, if they provided funding for them. For good or bad. I hate how much America's military matters. Ugh. Ahh, I see. Still, I guess Syria remains an anomaly since to my knowledge congress has yet to vote on it in any form... Oh wait, that was a different link than I thought it was lol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_war_by_the_United_States But yeah, there's a few instances where the president made an executive action, and either things were too quick to require approval from Congress, or it just never happened for whatever reason. I remember talking about them, once upon a time. I'm...less versed now though.

    We're really far off from a "one trial proves innocence or guilt" system. I'm not entirely convinced that's going to be possible ever, tbh.

    How long is an appropriate amount of time before you decide you don't like anything about a job and start looking for a new one? A year? 6 months? Because I'm super ready to move on...

    Assuming that's -20 celcius, it's been about the same here, and I'm 250% tired of it. It's even cold in my apartment, and I've got the heat at 75 f/23.88889 c. I just wanna be warm, dammit :(

    It wouldn't be so bad if Facebook didn't send push notifications for every live video that someone starts/shares.

    Officially gotten to the point in this build where I'm just plugging shit in where I can make it fit. There's a case fan that is connected up to a dial on the top to change the fan speed, and as a result the actual fan's connector is wrapped up in the weird connector which I'm pretty sure is supposed to go to the power supply instead of the motherboard, but heck if I know how. So I unplugged it and connected the fan to the motherboard. Got some dangling cables now >.>
