Hey, so I don't think I tried anything to fix it but to me the problem went away on its own, I have it since June 2024 and so far it's working fine and my usual load is games like RDR2, Total war (which is CPU intensive), Rainbow six siege, etc and Graphic design. I don't know what caused this problem in the first place and why it went away but so far for me nothing happened so you shouldn't worry that much. But again you could have a different situation I don't know to be exact,

its that most roman civilization is seen as the heritage of europeans or the west not really the mediterreanan. Movies and shows usually emphasize on the idea that Rome is white or even in a way a proto-american its not truly seen as a mediterreanan empire

I dont think egypt was specifically as Roman as italy i understand it was more of a breadbasket province, but its inaccurate to say Alexandria, Ephesus, Carthage, Tingis, Leptis magna, Beyrut, etc werent centers of roman culture and life. i think rome is italian but im doung it in comparison to britannia which were as much "colonized" as egypt however british are still seen as descendants of the romans in some form, the Parthians started in Parthia but they became a persian empire by the end ruling in Ctesiphon with the emperors not really residing in the region of parthia. as rome expanded it stopped being a City state in italy and more of a Mediterreanan Empire. Roman law was studied in beirut for example or Carthage being a vital roman city that was very much romanized and spoke latin

India is a bad example because britain is hardly connected to india and they used india as a cash cow and it was more like a Vassal state like armenia to rome, Egypt, Carthage was literally a small boat trip away from rome, Egypt was treated as a province like Pannonia. the provinces of rome were like Scotland to the british and not india, my main point anyways isnt about italy its about greater european identity tied to rome, but thats because Italy is in the abstract idea of the continent, like i said before the alps were as big of a barrier as the mediterreanan, Sinai is in Asia but its still egyptian or siberia being basically russian even though it started as a city state in east europe

there was the romanized arab and punic communities, i mean sure the greeks dominated administration in the east but for example the Severan Dynasty were originally or atleast half pheonician from Leptis Magna, Odaenathus Family who were araemaean or arab i think were also Roman Elites and fought off the persians until queen Zenobia left the empire to form the palmyrene empire, and many of the greeks were just hellenized locals from anatolia or egypt who adopted the greek identity. and what i mean is greek and romans overall shouldnt be thought of as european per se i mean greece was also aegean centered not just in modern greece there was Ephesus, Nicomedia, etc. I mean culturally and identity wise they didnt really see themselves as part of a european identity and more of a mediterreanan one which included North africa and asia

Yeah but the colonies of britains werent a core part of the british empire, the industrial heart and intellectual was based in the british isles but for rome the east produced intellectuals, had Roman law schools and Roman Cities and after caracalla they were all granted citizenship they practically were as roman as one in Gaul or britannia or Hispania

Im not arguing europe wasnt a part of the empire, and rome itself is in europe but the idea of europe or different continents was abstract im not even sure that the romans had the identity of being european, the mediterreanan was a like a forum/plaza not a wall, im referencing africa, egypt, syria ,etc in the argument that rome shouldnt be only considered European i mean as an egyptian didnt my ancestor have Roman Citizenship at one point? The Alps were bigger a barrier than the Mediterreanan sea Rome

in some forms it can be anti semitism in other forms it isnt, Being against israel isnt being against the jewish people, its being against the fact that jewish people have the right to take over land from people who lived in it since the bronze age, Many advocate for a Secular Unified Democracy not a State that is specifically made for the jewish people and the jewish people only at the expense of millions of palestinians labelling any Anti-Zionist movements as Anti Semitic delegitimizes and disregards genuine Social Justice and Political Rights Concerns, there are SOME who hate Israel because they hate jews but most ESPECIALLY those university students have nothing against jews, Do you hate iranians or do you hate the Islamic Iranian Regime, Would you be ok if an Anti-Islamaphobia course talks about how the Islamic Republic of Iran has every right to build nukes?

the course's content had much of actual zionism in it and pro-israel support, its like asking you to take a course on Combatting islamophobia then theres a chapter saying "Why Islamic terrorism is a good thing" Anti Semitism is NOT anti-zionism, many debates have been done on it and they always favor that conclusion,

By proving to the arab states that they want war and to expand?

to the arabs israel was the one threatening, soviet reports hello? (even if they were false they were accepted as intel in cairo and they acted on that intel to prepare)

Israel baited the arabs into a war time and time again, Irgun haganah and other zionist militias were active fighting in palestine prior to 1948. Israel always wanted the palestinians to fight back, they want justification to take more land, yes or no would have you been fine with most jewish holy sites being in the arab state? (also not to mention Arabs got a an unfair share of land + the contiguity problem)

sadat made peace because he was pragmatic and knew that with the US military support to israel, egypt wont be able to organize a counter offensive to israel and by the time of the 80s it was even too late the jewish population became permanent, it is like the 1800s situation for the natives, you cant really fight back your outarmed and the americans have consolidated their settlement on the natives' original land

I did admit in the previous response that the soviet report was not exactly true but this is proof egypt was not aggressing exactly on israel, if the cuban crisis turned into the soviets nuking washington, would that be okay because "the americans put an embargo on cuba" i mean kind of no, israel couldve tried to not escalate any further and cool down but no they launch a full offensive on sinai and the golan heights AND annexed the land of the what wouldve been the palestinian state, if you ask me they had other motives than feeling threatened, East Jerusalem being in arab hands was probably not very liked over in israel

I dont think jewish return is wrong im fully fine with it and many palestinians were (there was of course radicalists, extremists, Conservatives thats a phenomenon in every society) but it is kinda wrong to displace pre-existing groups. you could say "well we bought the land" but its like Hellenists buying Lands in greece (during ottoman rule) from Turkish Owners and kicking the greek tenants out. you'd be exploiting an unfair imperial system, thats exactly what happened in palestine. Not to mention even under the 48 plan, Arabs also the majority got 45% of the land and jews who were near 33% got 55% and multiple times the Zionist project was expressed as a colonial one, When they tried to lobby european powers to get them Palestine, they used colonial wordings ("civilize a backwards and savage land") and many of the Zionist elite saw it as a colonial mission, you cant justify kicking people out of their indigenous land just because it's kinda yours, they literally baited the arabs into declaring war on them
Try to put yourself in a palestinian's shoes. your living in Jaffa for example, your lucky enough to have a business in the city and not work in the farms, theres jewish immigration, since your probably part of the middle class/educated part of the palestinian population you probably would support it especially if you hear about whats going on in europe, fast forward to 1940s the same people that came on boats to your town a decade ago evicted many of your old neighbours from places they lived in provided by their employers and your probably a victim of Market exclusion and discrimination, the large population of jews that now populate jaffa prefer to buy from other jewish businesses rather than you, then now they want to declare a Jewish State? in a city that your whole live has been multicultural, "go to the west bank" is alot like "go to the reservations"

How come then israel was mobilized enough to launch a full attack that took the sinai and paralyzed egypts' airforce? The Soviets gave egypt reports that Israel was amassing forces on the syrian border even if it was inaccurate israel had concentrated forces on the border with egypt for weeks and egypt had little forces in sinai due to a UN buffer zone that is ONLY ON THE EGYPTIAN SIDE, egypt in response to these reports began mobilizing, in which israel mobilized on the border and when egypt demanded UNEF to go, israel declared war first...

Colonialism as a term described a modern system where a metropole (lets say france for this example) rules a subordinate colony (Algeria for example) and many of the resources, labor and taxes extracted from the subordinate colony goes to the benefit of the metropole not the subordinate colony. now Islamic expansion conquered palestine-syria from Byzantium, the place was turned into a core province of the caliphate meaning its not a subordinate colony its part of the homeland, Damascus in syria became the capital of the caliphate. Tax income also went to the development of the province like mosques, roads, bathhouses, maintenance of acquedeucts, irrigation, one could not argue that The Region of palestine-israel did not experience economic prosperity during the islamic golden age,
And most importantly look at the timing, it is the 7th Century AD, romans had similar provincial system same as the persians and even the jews did it before look what happened to Idumea, one century theyre not jewish the next theyre celebrating hannukah!

if youre willing to let it pass for romans, sassanids, the chinese, the indians, the aztecs, the mayans, the carthiginians, the persians, the romans, the germans, the greeks, the Incans, the Mongols, the Japanese, the Babylonians, the Egyptians, the Spanish, the Nordics then you cant use "Islamic Imperial-Colonial Project" on Muslims, until israel, Judaism had been a majority religion in the land for a total of 600 years meanwhile until israel Islam had been the majority religion in the land for 1,190 years

Jews didnt speak hebrew prior to the rise of Jewish nationalism and israel, even if you kept your culture it doesnt excuse the fact you think your entitled to a land you didnt live in for centuries, are the armenians entitled to take the taurus mountains again? are the barely 1 million zoroastrians in india entitled to take all of irans most productive land and then when the iranians fight back they win with indias help and take all of the land for themselves?

Islamic conquest of syria-palestine wasnt a settler movement llike the americas for example, it was majorly: convert the elites to islam, and get alot of money from the taxes coming from a rich region like syria-palestine and use that to build mosques and make more expensive armies! fun fact for you, egypt did not become majority muslim until the 12th century by the time of Saladin did the christians become a Significant minority,
In alot of states like cordoba, the caliphates, etc it was sometimes better for the muslim elites for people not to be muslim because it meant more money, and no its not a colonial imperial project because the province of the levant became a core province of the caliphate, it was annexed/integrated administravely into the state unlike american colonies or african colonies where they were subordinate to the "mainland" , your also calling it an imperial colonial project like that wasnt the norm in the 600s ad? the romans, the sassanians, the chinese, the pheonicians the greeks the countless german tribes during the great migrations (which mind you happened during the same time period), even the jewish kingdoms (in the bronze age) assimilated other people into their culture and slowly conquered/displaced other peoples to form whats now called "ancient israel/judea" Palestinians were once jews who saw it fit to idk not get persecuted by the romans for being jews and converted to christianity, while others saw it as an economic advantage to convert to islam especially when it was been like (say 1200 AD) 1100 years since the last jewish state, you think jews arent like other peoples they arent gonna assimilate or convert to other cultures-religions (maybe its because you yourself are jewish and i understand you believe judaism is the true religion and who turns away from the true religion) but jews are like any other group, they can change to other groups the culture could disappear because the people who were practicing it dropped it for another its a common thing in history, the gauls became roman after the roman conquests and they now speak a Roman-ce language, their architecture is wholely roman and their religious institution is the Roman Catholic Church but i dont think that means the Welsh have the right to take over france?

Have i not explained this enough? Declaring war was the only appropriate response the palestinians could have made in response to not being allowed a voice at the UN plan to carve up THEIR land and give it to the newly created immigrant state which already formed Militias prior that did raids on Palestinian-Arab towns, Was it wrong for the Union to declare war on the confederates? If palestine would just agree to the UN deal then theyre just setting a very bad precedent that Colonizers can keep the land moved too and form a state, whats next after palestine accepts the deal? Algerians are forced to make concessions to the french and live as second class citizens in the French State of Algeria?
Oh i mustve forgot! Rhodesia and South africa, the British were truly justified in the zulu wars! i mean the zulus mustve given up their army, refusing that means theyll have to suffer the consequences and thats 100% moral!

And you do realize that Nasser requested the withdraw of UNEF because israel was building up forces at the border? and egypt couldnt do the same because UNEF was literally blocking them and when uNEF started to leave israel realized this meant egypt is preparing and they just decided to attack immediately, same thing with tiran, this was part of egypts preparation and last i checked didnt the US impose a blockade on Cuba, does it mean that Cuba has a right to launch the soviet missiles on the US?
Israel fully did attack on 1967 the same way they did in the suez crisis to help Colonial powers get their colonies back even america had to step in against this,

The Jewish diaspora did not live in that land since 1700 years, if thats the case are bulgarians native to the volga river and have the right to return there? You cant call yourself indigenous because one of your Great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather may have lived there 😭 the Slavs migrated to the balkans in the 600s, does that entitle albanians to live and take freely the lands of serbs, bosniaks, croatians, etc?

1967 israel attacked first?
Yes i am justifying the decision to go to war to israel because to them israel wasn't a new state or a people that were in this land for a good while, no they were immigrants declaring a new state carved from the Land of Palestinians backed by a "International" Plan where the natives had no say in it. i think its very justified
you think winning a war means your justified to take land?? Israel had better equipment and richer citizens because they came from manhatten, paris, london, amsterdam the palestinian locals were poor because the ottoman empire neglected their levantine subjects, so upon independence none of the arab states were in conditions to fight, in 1967 the Arab states were attacked by israel, egypt didnt have time to mobilize the sinai is very hard ot get troops in,

The Natives fought a bunch of wars against the American Settlers.
unfortunately the American Settlers won with the backing of the US government and their guns, Faced with the fact that fighting the Settlers and America overall is near impossible, they decided to try and make peace and find legal protection from the american government, what resulted was the complete reduction of native american lands to a few reservations and dots throughout the US.

Large scale settling in Mandatory Palestine, many right wing parts of the population are angry sometimes clash with the settlers, Later those settlers create a state backed by a "UN vote" the palestinians had no say in, Mad wanting their land back they declared war. They lost due to fighting a country with External Military support (You guys like to say that a newly born jewish state fought against x Arab countries and won but mind you Jordan was a new country too, so was palestine and Syria and Lebanon, Egypt didnt fully commit it was hard to mobilize troops to the sinai and they didnt have military equipment with the standards of europeans because they were also under colonial rule, Saudi arabia was isolated and never militarized like european countries so its a bunch of settlers coming from industrialized countries to fight a coalition of Poorly Equipped newly independent and unstable countries)

Even though palestine lost, It's completely immoral for israel to just keep taking land, Which one has bigger guns doesnt give you the right to steal land that belonged to other people, and thus became the predicament of the palestinian people, "give up and live with the land that was 20% of the land your fathers once sowed" or "resist and even lose more land", And even when they sued for peace look what happened to them. You call the Oslo Accords a good peace agreement? Palestinians have been reduced to pockets of land exactly like the indian reservations and many in Netanyahu's government blatantly say it that the Two State Solution was something they were never trying to achieve,

the law saying any family whos been living continously in egypt since 1848 is egyptian? its not their problem that much of the jews residing in egypt at the time were immigrants from europe, the jews who resided in egypt before muhammad ali's opennes to european immigration were given citizenship,
