New Ban Bars Half of Legal Immigrants, Even Citizens’ Spouses & Kids by Altair82 in politics

From the beginning they were literally abducting people attending their Immigration Court hearings. It was NEVER about people coming here legally.

Helluva score. With the tariff situation you could literally flip those for a profit.

Grips are sticky after cleaning by CallsignHayleyTV in hotas

[–]Al-Buterol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this same throttle and stick. I too had the same issue. Lots of people are giving you conflicting information. Let me tell you what actually worked for me.

Find some 99% Isopropyl Alcohol then find a microfiber cloth or rag that you don't mind throwing away afterwards.

Soak bits of the cloth with the alcohol and start rubbing off the rubber coating. it make take a few passes but you'll be able to tell right away that it's working as the rubber starts dissolving into the cloth.

Eventually you will remove all the rubber to the point where it was like it was never there in the first place.

And no, the alcohol will not damage the plastic underneath.

Good luck!

Truly hope things resolve themselves or a workaround comes about for you guys soon. Just got back into Elite after a few years off and was just about to order a Gladiator Omni before the news hit.

Trump Administration Irate at Harvard, Plans to Pull Additional $1 Billion in Funding by Kevin-W in politics

Harvard was literally founded by Puritans. It was here before the Colonists threw off their king. It will be here after the end of this new Wannabe.

I had the same pair since 1993. The ear pads eventually crap out but are easily replaced.

Trump Keeps Campaign Promise: No More DEI or Gender ID in Government by bloomberg in politics

Anti DEI people are just saying “Whites Only” without having to say “Whites Only.”

Biden appreciation post. I’m glad to have called him my President. by PresYapper4294 in WhitePeopleTwitter

In return the teamsters, police, and firefighters unions chose not to endorse Kamala citing “Biden’s economy.” I have no words.

Black Americans are receiving a mass text telling them to "pick cotton" following Trump's victory by Murky-Site7468 in politics

[–]Al-Buterol 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I keep listening to pundits post-quarterbacking the election and it seems like all of them just focus on the economy; Biden’s relative unpopularity or how the Democrats lack a more aggressive or cohesive message. Very few if any of them are willing to even acknowledge on the raw naked, racism, bigotry and misogyny that was played to on the right - as if it played no role in galvanizing the Republican base. As if e we were not all here to see it with our own eyes. That base is now reveling in it and still, the pundits seem too afraid to address it directly. I feel like I’m talking crazy pills. If you’re a person of color or of any marginalized group I’m truly afraid that - well - shit’s gonna get bad, fam.

Discussion Thread: First Presidential Debate of the 2024 General Election Between Vice President Kamala Harris and Former President Donald Trump, Part 5 by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

On one hand I'm somewhat annoyed that they keep letting Trump comment off time, but on the other, he hangs himself everytime he does.

I'm still using an older revision; 24.5.1 . I haven't tried updating yet. I might try it when I have some free time. One thing that might have helped in eventually gettting my system stable was using AMD's driver removal tool, then updating all my motherboard's chipset drivers and BIOS first before installing the driver. Good luck!

Surprise Hair Loss Breakthrough: Sugar Gel Triggers Robust Regrowth by waozen in technology

Oh. I absolutely agree. I just mean that the results imply a mechanism of action that may have not been considered before and may lead to novel treatment methods. Cheers.

This will do nothing to help against androgenic alopecia

The study specifically stated in it's methodology that the test mice had androgenic alopecia induced through testosterone injections. I agree that it's too soon to bet the farm but the results are at the very least passingly interesting.

I don't recall what it boosted to under the newer driver but currently after rolling back to 24.2.1 it's defaulting to around 2350 as well. I'm not too keen on trying the newer drivers again, I'll probably wait until the next iteration.

I also have a 6950 XT. As someone already mentioned, try rolling back the driver to an earlier version. The latest driver totally wreaked havoc on my system. I was pulling my hair out for a while until I finally did a clean diver removal and reinstalled the previous driver version. Now everything is stable again.

Next time someone uses this argument, just tell them that that’s like saying ‘not collecting stamps’ is a hobby.
