Vesa-guy is horrified at the quality of some DP cables, but isn't mentioning any names (which would really help a LOT) Damn near anything can cause DP-flicker (someone says gas-hydraulic chairs) I researched and all I got was tired. https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-DisplayPort-Gold-Plated-7680x4320-Resolution/dp/B07R6G9P58/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=DisplayPort+1.4+Cable&qid=1576360265&rnid=2528832011&s=electronics&sr=1-6 seems decent, but reviewers say the connector is too fat. I'm tempted to just get HDMI but then I'd miss out on recovering from all those years of DP-snobby users flaunting their cables. I'm tempted to get a 10-foot cable (My gargantuan behemoth needs to sit very close to me.) I'm tempted to save the money and live with the flickering, now that I know what it is. And if, by some urge to be masochistic, I asked in a forum which to buy, the pontificating ("get a horse") would be horrific. I'll buy the above cable, because, (I don't know) and hope the reviewers were fat-fingered and clumsy. Seems pretty decent.. I can't get over the ad pictures though. Spoiler He's so upset about that draft! Lap 2 and in 4th place? Bullshit!

That is fault of her family and the teachers/media pushing a narrative that even actual scientists cannot agree on. (It gets into who got paid by whom; and no, the science does not unequivocally back it up. YES, humans have had an effect on the climate, however the magnitude of that effect is highly debatable.) Also, the planet can pretty well fix itself, nature isn't as fragile as some peoples' egos seem to think. When the planet fixes itself it's pretty much genocide. Has been that way, will be that way until the sun swallows the earth or a giant space rock will shatter us. Nature isn't a benevolent mother, it's a merciless bitch. I've mentioned it several times here already I think, 99.9% of all species that ever existed on earth are extinct, and this was before mankind emerged to take its place at the very top of the food chain. Humans are spread all across the globe, so climate change won't just mean slightly hotter summers or slightly warmer winters, it means that places that are pretty inhospitable now will become outright deadly and some areas that are pretty nice to live in will become inhospitable. In the end it doesn't matter much if humans are responsible or not but it wouldn't hurt to try to make it better, the worst that could happen is that you make your environment slightly better to live in if the science is wrong about it. However, the worst that could happen if the science is right is a planet wide extinction event.

I spent my Junior and Senior years in High School living in Nebraska cos my parents moved for work reasons and in the winter I would just shock myself constantly on everything. Grabbing shit out of my locker? ZAP! Doing a presentation on Smartboard? ZAP! Taking my jacket off I'd feel the zappies coming and I'd smack my hand into the locker to make it go away faster.

The problem isn't that it isn't happening, it's that it's slow enough that the average idiot human can't figure it out and/or doesn't care because it won't affect them in their lifetime (probably). Then you have the scientists, who know this stuff is going on, pushing idiotically fast time tables in an effort to get the average Joe to care. Welp, newsflash: the average Joe doesn't give two shits. Monopolies. Just posted a question about phone cases. Did not specifically specify which phone I bought. ALL of the answers so far relate to a certain well known, very popular, all-but-monopoly brand in the phone/tablet market. I did not buy their phone, therefore, almost all of the information posted thus far in an effort to assist me is useless. Not the posters' faults by any means.

It is the most bloated non-canon bullshit you would find that can only be liked by people who were born with a dead brain between their ears. As for zapping, i don't think i've ever had such an intense problem with static. The most i remember was this sweater i had to wear back one winter (hated the feel of it too) and every time i had moved i would feel zaps on my upper back and underarms. And that's why i don't ever wear sweaters (well i don't like the look of it on me so there's that too). This made me think, what if someone charged a plastic dildo with static and used it on their clit? Extra stimulation?? For science!

I do have one thing that bothers me though, when jocks are like "lol nerd ur getin' riled up 'bout some like.. vidya gaim tournament? hahahahah fuckin gay retard" but they go on to get plastered watching sports. It's the same fucking thing but with less concussions... unless you go to a Smash tournament. Variable brain cell loss due to contaminants from lack of hygiene.

All those eco-cultists have a choice - they can either go and bother the actual perpetrator OR they can go fuck themselves with a rusty pipe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_dioxide_emissions The top 5 are: 1. China: 29.34%, an increase of 353.8% over the last 27 years 2. USA: 13.77%, pretty much stable over the last 27 years 3. EU: 9.57%, decrease of -19.5% over the last 27 years 4. India: 6.62%, increase of 305.1% over the last 27 years 5. Russia: 4.76%, decrease of -25.8% over the last 27 years So you're correct about China at least. The problem however is that when countries go from developing to developed status, the emissions increase significantly. Some people burning coal, wood or dung in their huts to keep warm or cook food don't matter that much, it's the industrialized countries that make up most of the pollution. When it comes to overpopulation, general wealth decreases the amount of children most significantly. Example Bangladesh, which was a pretty horrible place to live in which is now expected to pass the threshold from developing to developed country in 2024, which went from roughly 7 children in the 1950's per woman down to 1.7 children in 2015 per woman. When it comes to the eco cultists, well, it's mostly the media doing it. Actual scientists rarely get interviewed because science is boring, that's why you have all the alarmist language about climate change. Science didn't predict the world ending in the 2000's, but it did predict a rise in median temperature, which we now have. Media needs to sell itself and some OMG WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE TOMORROW READ THIS NOW clickbait sells better than a science nerd talking about data, how that data is collected and what that data is able to tell us. This of course leads to suspicion of the media and science directly because people conflate the two, they see the media lying and since the media claims to be scientific, it's obvious that people will also think that science is just clickbait. Science itself isn't entirely without fault, either, because even scientists need to sell themselves in order to be recognized and further their careers, that's why we have the replication crisis, especially in the social sciences and psychology - only about 30% of all the studies examined so far in these fields are able to deliver consistent results, 70% are pretty much bogus. When it comes to ideology, you'll always have to ask yourself the following two things: 1.: Am I affected by it? Do I want certain things to be true and certain things to be false because my ideology demands it? 2.: Is the person I am talking to honest about the data or are the results skewed because only some of it agrees with their worldview? Edit: On second thought, you're not really correct about China, considering China's population is around 1.38 billion while the US has around 327 million people.
megamantaray Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 Saw some fucking boomer on TV complaining about how they saw a study on how the biggest portion of the workforce this day and age is people over 50, with most of them being over 70 because "young people" don't have any drive or any ambition. They don't see potential to grow and better themselves! He went on to complain that at his local clinic he only ever kept 1 doctor besides himself and nurses because the other 8 that he interviewed wouldn't take 24 hour shifts constantly and expected to be paid for when they did. PREPOSTEROUS! It's like some faggot on twitter asking for super high detail descriptive art for exposure. Nigga what the fuck are you smoking? You expect people who threw $300k down a hole to study for 8 years to work for NOTHING!? Work retarded hours because you refuse to hire more people no less. Fuck you. Where are your sources on these numbers anyway? I hope you break something important and the last 5 years of your shitty retarded ass boomer life fucking suck and the last thing your oldest son says to you is "I'm gay" because you hate the gays too, don't you? "InSuRanCe CoMpAniEs PAy Us SO LiTtLE ThOuGH, We AcTUaLlY HaVe TO HaGgLe WiTh ThEm!" You CHARGE $10 PER FUCKING COUGH DROP YOU MOTHERFUCKER! Edit: shut up I'm not angry. Only slightly livid.
