Cool that the same court in Texas always gets to decide policy for the entire fucking country.

Hottest year on record so far.

will eventually

You’re looking for “may eventually”. We’re not anywhere near this so using it as a current argument is rather silly.

Are the donors really going to stick around if the Dems get plastered every election (if there is another one) and never win anything? One of three things will happen, to wit.

  1. nothing changes and the Democratic Party is toothless, useless and abandoned.
  2. The working populace starts a new leftist party and the Democratic Party is dead.
  3. the DNC pushes further left and wins back some votes

I think #3 is the least likely to happen. Although in the near future I think it doesn’t matter at all, because we’ve sunk into the mid to late 1930’s Germany. I hope our allies in Europe is prepared to move forward without our support.

You might be talking about me here, but I drive a lot of sales and keep us going.

Tell me where to send the donuts, I got you guys covered.

the bowel is wider than your asshole

imagining a nurse using the word “asshole” to explain it to a regular person is just hilarious to me.

You kind of have to accept it, the teachers write the tests.

I’ve been in your exact situation, and I’ll tell you what was once told to me by someone older and wiser than myself. When you determine that your plate is full, you ask your manager to help you prioritize the tasks you’re being assigned. You lay out all the shit that’s been dumped on you, and ask for the order in which they want it done.

If they understand, they’ll stop piling on and you’ll get some relief.

If they don’t understand or say something like “you’ll figure it out” look for the door and find another job as quickly as possible.

Hey, since you mentioned gout (and I read the rest so I know you don’t have it) that’s definitely something totally preventable and treatable, and also definitely something you don’t want to leave untreated.

But hey, fellow ~~Clevelander~~ beehawer, welcome aboard!

So currently I’m running a 5800x and a regular 2060. I’ve got a 650w gold PSU that’s about 4 years old, no problems with it at all. I’m thinking about upgrading to a RX 7800 XT because GeForce prices are perpetually absurd. It seems like it would be enough power, but the few things I’ve read say that I need at least a 750w if I go with the AMD (because they’re power hungry?), but 650w would be fine for a 4070ti. If I have to buy a new PSU, I feel like it would wipe out any savings I might get by buying AMD over Nvidia. How can I definitively know if I need more power?

Full disclosure, I understand the concept of undervolting, but I’m not nearly confident enough to mess with the settings.
