Somebody has fed you lies. PCIe 2 vs 3 isn’t even an issue until you get into 1080 territory, and even then it’s a <10% penalty on a card that’s probably 2-3x the throughput of whatever you’re running now. Holding back because you’re only going to get 270% improvement instead of 300% is kinda nonsensical.

GTX 770 was released 5 years ago. Even stodgy offices recapitalize their fleet at 5 years. In no way should developers in 2018 be targeting that ancient of a card.

Get a bigger TV.

It’s really telling they didn’t mention Cambridge, isn’t it? That’s spin 101: don’t mention your opponent or challenge. It’s all more carefully calculated bullshit. I’m sure they spent a million bucks just writing and focus grouping that one, using the best spin doctors in America.

Nope. The belt worked just fine to break up the blueness without looking like some anachronistic strongman outfit so out of date most people don’t even grasp the reference.

The underwear was and remains anachronistic. Batman ditched them years ago. It was a move in the right direction.

Assuming everyone agrees that cults, racists, and plain ol’ ignorance is bad while concepts like facts and reason are good is why our 2018 season of reality is taking place in the mirror universe.

Yup. And they’re deliberately off the reservation and in the same waters as the big sharks. Goldman. would. fuck. them. up.

Formaldehyde is all natural. In fact, your body is producing some as you read this.

If we’re being pedantic, it’s the government that backs your bank account.

Fine. Keep running. I know you have nothing to back up your nonsense.

Oh? There’s people out there willing to pay me to remind people that e-coins are a bad idea? Where do I sign up? Do they offer gifts for new signups?

So you take issue with my wording, but not the actual statement that just having a wallet doesn’t mean you’re hosting kiddie pron.

All miners, yes. A wallet just contains your coins, not the whole block chain, so no.

Did you even RTFA? If you did RTFA, did it occur to you that any e-coins with a transaction comment field would be susceptible to this issue?

The distinction is that you don’t download the entire internet to use it. That’s not true of e-coins. When your mining client updates its block chain, it’s grabbing everything and once it’s done you’re now hosting kiddie pron on your local system. It’s in your possession.

Yup. A skydiver has a terminal velocity of 100-200 mph, or about mach 0.15. A bomb peaks at anywhere between mach 0.8 (most bombs) and low supersonic (bunker busters).

99% of jobs only care about whether or not you’re a deadbeat. Your middling 650-700 score isn’t going to raise any flags, even for finance or work requiring a security clearance (#1 reason why people are denied clearance is due to debt or a history of breaking contracts). Even then, if you had a medical bankruptcy,…

Actually, yes, you have impunity to say whatever you want about the dead. Dead people have no reputation to damage and no legal standing in the courts. All you can do is damage other people’s memory of the dead, but ruining memories is not actionable.

The guy with a gut watching TV might also be exhausted from pulling a double shift that doesn’t even have health insurance, and has only enough time and energy to watch a couple hours of primetime before turning in.
