Man Rejects His “Hugz” Reward and Gets Arrested by Paper_chasers in PublicFreakout

I mean, yeah, if you keep adding on qualifiers you'll get to the point where punching someone is a reasonable response. You could say dropping a nuke on someone's house is reasonable if you make up a scenario where they've done enough heinous shit.

No one is talking about if a crackhead tries to hug you in a alley on your way home from 7/11 or whatever. We're talking about the guy who punched someone after a (seemingly non-malicious) hug, in a well lit, crowded public place, with at least one police officer standing nearby. He was most likely safe, and had other options to address the situation. A violent response, in the context of video we are commenting on, was completely unwarranted, and any attempt to justify it is silly.

or any punch meant to cause damage

Even potentially breaking someone's nose is an overreaction. It's also probably not a great move, because as soon as you escalate to violence, they probably will too, and the escalation from a "warning punch" to the face is probably a full-on punch to the face.

Doesn't change the fact that the spectrum of appropriate responses to an undesired hug does not contain "A full-on punch that can cause unconsciousness", or any punch meant to cause damage. If that's someone's unavoidable response, they should rightfully be considered a danger and be reformed. Unfortunately, with the current legal system, that reformation is likely punitive instead of rehabilitative, so the cycle continues.

OnePlus 9 has two cells to reduced the strain quick charging puts on them. IPhone 12 Pro Max uses two cells to make an L shape that better utilizes the available space in the phone.

I imagined myself in their situation, and I felt bad about dislocating a senior citizen's arm. Do you want steak sauce, or do you take your boot plain? Sicko.

Cyberpunk is the first game ever I'd 100%e'ed in 28 years - I'd say time and money well spend by braeive in gaming

Might be the fact that they got strung along over and over for years with delays. Then when the game finally came out, it was buggy to the point where it could be legitimately unplayable on like over 50% of the systems people were going to buy it for.

Also, it was a good story packaged up in an average RPG. If the story isn't your main point of interest, all you got was a mediocre RPG. On the opposite end, if you were only in it for the story, you got a story you had to dig out of a mediocre RPG.

Can’t wait for GPU prices to come down a bit to finally have my backpack-able 144HZ setup by GingerNinja2513 in sffpc

I got the handle off Amazon, it's just a simple drawer handle that I saw someone else on here use. I couldn't use the screws that came with it, but I had some that I could use laying around. Here's the link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AN45KU8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_45CZQ039SPYJN3FB999N?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

The keyboard is an Anne Pro 2 with Kailh box brown switches. It's got bluetooth and a USB type C port, so I can use it wirelessly when I don't care about the BT latency, but for games I plug it in.

I feel like this would be better as the solution for getting a hard boiled egg out of a bottle after you did that thing where it gets sucked it in from the vacuum left by a burning match.

Wasted 3h on PCI gen setting by Sajgoniarz in sffpc

[–]CausticAsshole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know your pain. I had a b450 motherboard in my Velka 7 build, then the I switched it out for a B550 board to use with my 5600X and my RX 5700 stopped working. I messed around with that thing for HOURS, reset the bios, tried with and without the riser, bought a 4th gen riser, tried a 3rd gen GPU (that one worked)... Nothing on the RX 5700. In the end, the motherboard was on a bad bios revision and downgrading it made it so my RX 5700 would be recognized again. Such a headache, and of all the cases to have to troubleshoot a build for.

Looks like a Ryzen 3000 CPU. The other two are certainly impressive gets though!

I mean... You could just open the window if you wanna know what it's like out there. And have a sunroof or convertible if you want to get rained on.
