And if all the ants in the world suddenly decided to work together to take over the world, they just could. Unfortunately, humanity isn't a person who can "just learn" something. It's a complicated interaction of biology and ecology. For better and worse, "we" can't all "just learn" something, only a person can. A person is smart, people are stupid.
The founding fathers were strong people borne of hard times, and given an opportunity to create good times.
Long term I'm still optimistic. Most people don't want this, they're just not paying attention/being lied to.
We're on the other side of, "Good times make weak people", we're somewhere between "Weak people make hard times", and "Hard times make strong people", and we all want to hurry up and get to "Strong people make good times" ASAP. But these things....they take time.
Classic "both weak and strong" tactic. So weak they need the feds to protect them. So strong that it's a crime that they're not protecting the feds.
That sounds about right. I would ballpark the number of MAGA die hards who will believe absolutely everything he says at around 30% of the US. So that's actually the best I would ever hope for on that front. The part that's most disappointing to me is the 31% blaming both equally.
I was going to say you'll probably be fine, but if you're considering Mint you'll definitely be fine.
Terminology you don't need to know: Mint is still using x11, which Nvidia works fine with. I assume mint won't switch to Wayland until it works smoothly on Nvidia too.
My partner is using mint on a 3080. I think she had one graphical bug in one game one time after an update. Mint has a program specifically used to roll back to a past Nvidia driver. She chose the driver from before the update, rebooted, and the bug was gone. Just gotta remember to switch back to using latest later when a new driver comes out.
What part are you struggling with? Not enough content? I get it, but also that's a feature. If you dislike centralized platforms more than you want to rot your brain, it takes zero effort.
Their strategy is always to play the victim. Never be the cause for a crisis, just the one resolving it.
But yeah, if nothing else, they'll just stick to the story that Chicago and Portland are bloody, war ravaged crime dens, and the military is there to help in spite of the democrats.
Enforcement is the line between a political disagreement and a civil war. As soon as a state tries to physically defend itself, the gloves are off. Trump is desperately trying to provoke that moment before midterms.
Ah, i gotcha. The video at hand, and this whole thread is about the lifespan of consumer electronics, not really business refresh cycles.
Eh, back when Moore's Law was alive, it was easily every 2-3 years. Around 2010 we hit a wall with transistor sizes and CPU speeds, which saw the time between upgrades rise considerably. A gaming PC from 2015 was very capable 5-7y later. Vendors have been spending all the time since coming up with ways to get that back down to 2-3, especially EOLing perfectly good hw artificially quickly.
Lol I definitely read the same thing twice. Assumed they were just repeating for emphasis. You're right, my bad.
You're attributing to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity. The greedy always exist. (I'm not religious so i don't like the term "evil", but) the "evil" always exist. But the reason those people have any power right now (and did going into the great depression, and going into the civil war, etc., etc.) is because a weak society allowed them to.
On the other end of this, the goal is to come out with a new culture that prioritizes humanity over greed. We spent so long high on good times that we forgot that was a priority (temporarily embarrassed millionaires). But in hard times, people don't just decide to make this cultural shift, they literally have to in order to survive.
