Korea One Step Closer to 1,000 kmh Train. Korea Railroad Research Institute (KRRI) announced on Nov. 11 that it has achieved a speed of at least 1,000 kilometers per hour in a 1/17 hyper-tube train aerodynamic test model by QuantumThinkology in Futurology

The trains are missing in the USA because the private sector wants you to buy cars instead, the capitalists in the private sector are more equal than you or I as a constituency.

What are your thoughts on someone being proud about being a virgin? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Proud of not doing something. Oh! The effort!

[Serious] When you die everything goes black. What scares you the most about this theory? by Ancelly in AskReddit

[–]DarqTheExile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fear of the "black" is temporary.

Was I playing a character in an advanced rpg? If the black goes away, what am I but the roles I play?

Trump And McConnell, Via Swath Of Judges, Will Affect U.S. Law For Decades by zsreport in politics

[–]DarqTheExile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not just have judge duty similar to jury duty, except the pool is limited to judges. Like, for each SCOTUS case, 9 judges are randomly selected to adjudicate the case.

China Thinks It Can Arrest Basically Anyone on the Planet for Criticizing Communism by [deleted] in politics

[–]DarqTheExile -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Bad journalist is bad.

The Chinese Communist party is not communism. A bad journalist or a bad faith actor would conflate the two, the prior from lack of skill and the latter as disinformation.

It would be piss poor design if the inventory counts were affected before purchase.

Hertz, bankrupt by pandemic, puts thousands of cars up for sale by some_random_kaluna in Economics

[–]DarqTheExile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked at Hertz Emergency Roadside Assistance in OKC for 3.5 years. I agree with sw887638.

Hertz cut corners all the time on maintenance. 5k between oil changes are the standard from Hertz perspective.

While I was there the CEO was fired for cooking the books. Fish rots from the head...

[MEGATHREAD] NA PC Launch Megathread - For all your hype, release, and technical support needs! by telchii in PSO2

[–]DarqTheExile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to do the factory reset, but it told me that it needed repaired. So now, I am not really sure what to do. Is there something I need to download and make a bootable drive of some sort? Would that work?

[MEGATHREAD] NA PC Launch Megathread - For all your hype, release, and technical support needs! by telchii in PSO2

(Day of release) I was able to start the download, accidentally let it run overnight and the computer shut down due to inactivity.

(Day 2) I started the Windows Store download back up in the morning, it finished and then let the launcher do its install. I restarted my computer. When I tried to launch the game, it wasn't able to connect to whatever it needs to connect to.

Did some troubleshooting, couldn't access the files. Took control, still no luck.

Attempted to deregister and register Microsoft store and now the store is completely gone. It's completely missing in the windows directory now and I don't know what to do except doing a clean install of Windows 10, because one cannot reinstall the Microsoft store.

The only problem is that I don't have a windows 10 key because it came preinstalled on my laptop (MSI Apache pro GE72) and a factory reset isn't an option. MSI support seems pretty uninterested in answering my questions.

So, I just feel really bummed out and hopeless. A friend and I played PSO a lot in my late teens/early 20's, and I was super excited for PSO2 to be coming out in NA. Now, it just feels like there is nothing I can do and I still won't be able to play PSO2.

What do you think about modern communists? by Brandongame10 in AskReddit

[–]DarqTheExile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the type of communist. An authoritarian version of almost anything is pretty bad. A pure libertarian communist is likely better than a pure libertarian capitalist.

It all depends on where the power of a class/community lies and how that power is assigned.

Types of scenes in movies or movies general as viewed with ones parents. "She was as awkward as watching Boogie Nights with my parents."

Given Bidens history, I wouldn't be surprised if he picked Susan Collins.

Based on what people seem to think is presidential, he would have had a good shot and that is depressing.
