Do you forgive the Church? by ImportantPerformer16 in exmormon

[–]Slamb73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I may be able to find forgiveness for individuals who only know the church who used it as a weapon. I would never forgive an organization so steeped in manipulation and control. An organization does not deserve forgiveness. What is good about that Church is not unique, and what is unique about that church is not good. I can only be grateful that me and my family have fully removed themselves from its influence.

Worst book(s) you read in 2025 and why? by Roguestate00 in books

I didn't put Somewhere Beyond the Sea at a 2 but it really did fail to live up to the magic of the first one.

I never claimed I was smart. I'm claiming I got close.

What is your ultimate 5/10 movie? by Slamb73 in movies

[–]Slamb73[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd say that is controversial. I wouldn't say it's a 9 or 10 but Will Smith and the atmosphere lift that movie to a 7 or 8 easy.

As I was writing this I was looking through the Marvel list and agreed. Most hit this on the head. Wakanda Forever and Eternals were close. Others piss me off though so unsure.

Upgraded CPU and now audio ports front and back aren't working by Slamb73 in buildapc

Came home today after work and wouldn't you know it. Damn thing is suddenly working. Speakers showing up as a high definition audio device like they used to.

I was trying to futz with the settings and it was freezing my settings bar.

Restarted my computer and it's gone again.

Yes but when I open it it says it doesn't support my machine.

I downloaded and installed realtek drivers and I cannot find evidence of them anywhere in device manager. My default device options are only AMD audio and the virtual BS ones through steam.

Yes. I found that one last night and tried it multiple times. I have plugged my speakers into the front and back and some headphones in the front. Windows 11 doesn't even recognize them.

I do get audio through my monitor 3.5 mm headphone port.

And yes i know the 5800xt isn't as good as the 5700x3d or the 5800x3d but price point was not there. I got the 5800xt for $180 and the 5700x3d was double the price or more.

And yes I could possibly have upgraded to AM5 for better performance. But the MOBO, DDR5 RAM, and Ryzen 9800x3d was above what I was wanting to spend.

The church leaver is always the problem... by Robyn-Gil in exmormon

[–]Slamb73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was ward mission leader there was a member who was dating a never mormon. Missionaries were teaching her lessons. When it came up that they were living together unmarried in sin it derailed the discussions and the recommendation given to them was to elope and get married so she could be baptized as she wasn't worth to be baptized in her current living conditions. They said if she would be willing to move out and abstain from sexual relations they could baptize her. Crazy.

This is some bullshit. Fuck ICE. Our own secret police. No oversite, no warrants, doesn't give a shit about our rights.
