I finally got around to rebuilding my gaming rig last year. I didn't go for super high end, just a Piledriver 6300, GTX 970, and 8 GB ram (2 slots still open but haven't seen the need for 16 GB). Those specs hardly scream enthusiast. With case (old case was way too cramped and worn after 15 years of service), power supply, mobo, everything came in under $500. I think that's the least I can remembering spending on a major overhaul of the gaming rig to date. Could probably use water cooling but otherwise works fine.
I don't think the PC market is going anywhere. If I'm going to be priced out of anything, it's things like eating meat on a daily basis. Computer hardware just keeps getting cheaper.
Another good one is Discovery Freelancer, a mod of Freelancer that's still running long after Microsoft's servers shut down. Freelancer itself is pretty mod-able, and we've run private servers of the vanilla game at LAN parties pretty easily. (Back when people used to do LAN parties.)
I assume sibling was being hopeful that they do have a warrant, but I'm more pessimistic.
How long until enough people have one of these things that not having one is a sign that you're up to no good?
"Your honor, we find that there is are no log entires in MannaMegaCorp's holographic memory as to the whereabouts of the defendent at 9:54 PM on Caturday, Smarch 32nd. This proves that the defendant was willfully evading the Eyes. Only a guilty man would elude the Eyes."
....Hmm... now might be a good time to buy up a country place nobody would know about, perhaps a farm...
Not only that, but remember the flapping about how these poor things are victimized by sexual harassment?
Every time an assigned male says anything that, when taken out of context, even remotely resembles something that could be construed as sexual harassment, he's going to get demerits. You better bet those are going to have economic consequences. Maybe once Amazon is the only place left to buy staple foods and other day-to-day necessities, your price will be jacked up depending on how many demerits you have.
Think you can beat the system by learning how to speak using a female voice (resonance, word choices, intonation, etc--very important for any advanced infiltrator to know and you don't even need to be a trap to learn these things)? That'll just jack up your demerits. Goomazon knows what your assigned gender at birth was no matter how many humans you might fool, and the Beast won't forget.
I'm sure that assigned males who are SJWs will have some kind of exemption so that no matter how sexist, bigoted, or vile something they say is, it'll never add to their demerits. For example, the AI will look the other way if they take a piece of Nazi propaganda about how Jews are like poisoned truffles and repurpose it to say that men are like poisoned M&Ms. (Note to peanut gallery: M&Ms!!!!eleven!one!!!! Not fucking Skittles! M&Ms! Only Skittles are racist!)
Then all assigned males who aren't good little sex objects, including all trans women, will starve to death in a land of automated plenty. Mission accomplished!
May you develop a disease that can be fatal which is also widely misunderstood.
Or, hmm. It appears you're the only person here who can't figure out why sending an image like this to somebody who suffers from photosensitive seizures does not constitute speech. Let me try my curse again.
May you develop a disease that can be fatal which is understood by most lay people, however may you also fall under the care of somebody who has some obtuse objection to properly caring for that disease.
There. I hope you're quaking in your boots now!!!!.... if that doesn't work, I'll follow up with a strongly-worded letter!
Ok, so Twitter was ordered by the 44th District Court, Dallas County, TX pursuant to the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure to... doxx somebody. Whatever you want to call it. See for yourself.
It was a shame that the Constitutional Convention was so overrun with naggers and Moooooooooooooooslims that they were forced by those Islamist transSEXuals to put the 3/5ths compromise in.
The Confederacy was a great egalitarian nation that had slavery forced upon it by the transSEXuals from the Transylvania Galaxy in the War of Northern Aggression!
They came to lower the page ranks of every few remaining sites outside the walled gardens of a few mega-corporations allied with a global Nanny State with vested interests in controlling what people could read,
and then I got as mad as hell! I wasn't going to take this anymore! So I opened up my window and stuck my head out and...
This is a good reason to consider an alternative to Google as your main search engine. I understand StartPage has become popular. Personally I use DuckDuckGo.
Or maybe all the millennials who are screaming censorship because of what TwitFace and Google do on their platforms are just stupid little snowflakes who are too coddled to remember when we used to have to dig through 4 or 5 different search engines before finding a good result.
I was going to bitch about linking that fucking goddamned WaPo article complaining about all the darned country bumpkins who are too stupid to understand AGW, but then I saw that mi was writing. I wasn't sure mi was capable of sarcasm but stranger things have happened.
And yet, ritual infant male genital mutilation, even though it removes more tissue is a-ok. (You should review the American Academy of Pediatrics' recommendation that we begin performing infant female genital mutilation in US hospitals to get a better idea what exactly it is.)
Oddly, the rest of that list is in both Christianity and Islam by way of the Old Testament, even including ritual infant male genital mutilation. Female genital mutilation is not a mandatory part of Islam.
If you're not certain, I'd invite this fellow called MikeeUSA to help out your understanding of the Old Testament. He does seem to know what he's talking about when you peel back the insanity.
Yep, just like the misunderstanding you might get that Dearborn, MI isn't under Sharia law by actually going there! Don't trust real life! It's fake! Dearborn, MI is under Sharia law in real reality!
That act they put on whenever you drive through town where they don't jihad on you is just "damage control!" When you have lunch or dinner at one of the restaurants and they don't behead you for being a gay faggot, it's all just "damage control!" All just an act to hide SHARIA LAW!
Now, when you go to Holland on the other side of Michigan, on the other hand, and they harass you for being a gay faggot and run you out of town, that's Christian so it's ok.
Correct, it is a net loss and it is a modern version of Communism and to implement this full scale will require negation of property rights and nationalization of production.
mmff... *barely avoids a spit take* Bwahahahahaha!
Let's take a look at who's responsible for TransParent. Created by: Jill Soloway who seems like she should fucking know better. Executive producers: Jill Soloway and Andrea Sperling.
Now, while I'm still digesting the reality that there is such a thing as a gay lifestyle, it's pretty clear that what's presented are the views of womyn-born-womyn.
I don't know about you personally, but having an advanced infiltrator class woman suit myself, it really does scare the shit out of people, both womyn-born-womyn and their white knights. They absolutely do not want to acknowledge that they're unable to ID somebody like me as an assigned male on sight.
You've tried to convince me that TERFs are just fringe wingnuts. But how the hell else does somebody like the man-in-a-dress star of TransParent win "the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Television Series -- Musical or Comedy and the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series" (Wikipedia)? I mean, that's a fucking insult. They're scared as shit. They're trying to console themselves that they're up against T-600s and they want to convince everybody out there that T-900 advanced infiltrators don't exist. Harisoo--doesn't exist! Nope! Estrogen HRT! No effects lol! Just all men in dresses wanting to invade the women's room! (Cue that New Braunfels, TX autotuned music video) Hide your kids, hide your wife, hide your kids, hide your wife!
I mean, fuck 'em. It's their heart attack when they find out that they've been hitting on an advanced infiltrator or almost invited an advanced infiltrator somewhere for womyn-born-womyn only.
(Meta: Posting in a discussion about psychiatric meds using a style that's more crazy than usual. Sure! Why not!)
But we know that you're a transSEXual from the Transylvania Galaxy here to make Christmas illegal! That's the only reason! That's why you hate God Emperor Trump! You're in cahoots with the lizard people! Get over it! She lost, you leftist transSEXual!
Don't cry about gender being innate you transSEXual freak! We've heard all the excuses we should accept raping little girls in the women's room! Everybody knows that gender is a social construct, and it's YOUR failure to assimilate to your assigned gender you transSEXual rapist!
She lost! Get over it! Trump! Trump! Trump! Lock her up! Lock her up! Lock her up! Now sieg heil to Santa you heathen leftist politically correct transSEXual rapist!
Damn it! Foiled! You heard it here first from SuperKendall himself! He's figured out that all the raw data that's just a Google search away is all lies. TransSEXuals are raping the real data in the bathroom! Lizard people! We can't trust anything! IT'S ALL FAKE NEWS!eleven!1!!
I hope you and the people who modded up you are the next people to get killed by autopilot because you were too fucking stupid to realize that "autopilot" != self-driving or driverless.
Slashdot Mirror
They've already done three genders and post-gender so why the fuck not 71 genders.
Win.
We need more women programmers! We need computer languages that are accessible to women instead of being designed only for cis+het males! We need...
Oh...
That might be bad for women's health? Halp! I don't know how to proceed! Wait, yes I do.
This study is obviously FAKE NEWS~! How dare those evil cis+het white males try to scare women out of tech careers with this nonsense!

So, trying to break from the misogynist mold, the newest AI is finally something like the butler I wanted. EXCEPT IT'S A HYPHENATED-AMERICAN!!!
So great, I can either FEEL GUILTY of male privilege with Alexa, Siri, etc or now I can FEEL GUILTY of white privilege with Jarvis.
Or infringement on Marvel's copyright.
One or the other two.
Ok, so Twitter was ordered by the 44th District Court, Dallas County, TX pursuant to the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure to... doxx somebody. Whatever you want to call it. See for yourself.
Ah, that explains why treatment was only $2,000.
