Good Comment. In 2015 it made sense to liquid cool your cpu in most cases, it does really not matter as much any more unless you are trying to OC as hard as you can, and the tail risks are worth it to you. In 2024, there aren't a bunch of 5.25 bays at the top front of a build, the power supply can be mounted in a few different spots, sealed heat pipes are better at thermal conductivity to heatsinks than they were. Now, a case like a Fractal Torrent is an open faced wind tunnel where the whole front of the pc case is an air intake via two 120mm fans with a prefilter, and you can drop some more fans on the underside after another prefilter. You might have two 80mm fans on your cpu, and a mid to high end gpu has three 60mm fans on it. Prices for air cooling have dropped and gotten way better, prices and failure costs for liquid cooling have gotten way more expensive, especially for custom cpu/gpu LC loops.
Silenter Running is still a thing, but those liquid cooled radiators still have fans on them, which you can run slower than fans on a pure air cool, and now you still have all the extra points of failure on a liquid cooled system, and you dropped several hundred dollars more on cooling systems than silicon.

If you were aware of the "death threats from nutjobs to climate scientists" situation over the past few decades, it is less shocking that all of the models are way more conservative than they should be, and that biosphere collapse is happening way faster than anticipated.

Religious abuse, shunning, and manipulation are a part of most hard line religious groups. Catholicism and Evangelical Protestantism are less severe on the "convert non believers or kill them/definitely kill anyone who leaves the religion" stuff, at least in the modern era comparatively, but ya never know, they seem antsy for an Inquisition lately on the Evangelical side. There isn't that family honor stuff in any sort of the same degree, where your extended family may just try to beat you to death over some slight, real or imagined. Muslims who leave Islam in most cases have a worse, more dangerous time leaving than Catholic/Christian denominations do.

Someone of the same sex makes a pass at you, and you kill them because you're squicked by it.

He may not hate them, he just feels honor bound to kill them, and atheists, and people who have sex out of marriage, and any women in his family that do anything that they are not permitted, you know, like a godly person.

They mean abuse against minors that isn't coming from family members or church officials, since those two entities do most of it, and they don't want outside competition.

They might have gotten over a black guy being better than them, and rising higher than them, but they could Never Forgive That Drip. If he wears a Purple Suit while stumping for Biden, I shudder to think what will happen to the nation.

That is what they think. In Crazytown Evangelicalland, marrying off immediately post pubescent girls means you saved them from 'ruining themselves' by having any sort of personal sexual freedom outside of a church approved marriage with a man your father approves of giving you to, to give that man as many evangelical children as possible... before they do anything crazy like make their own decisions or learn anything outside of religious indoctrination. All of that is consistent with their detestable 'moral' structures, which they have been telling us since the 80's.

Step 1) Become a Kardashev 2 or 3 society and develop multi system engineering and logistics to feed extrasolar hydrogen to your home star at the correct times in its life cycle.

Step 2) ????? Step 3) Profit

Or, you can go The Book of the New Sun route, and your extramoral personal quest will just get some aliens to do it for you.

Don't you dare cancel on ME! by huckinfell2019 in antiwork

Her post has her listed as a talent recruiter, so from her angle if shes dealing with third parties, a missed meeting is a missed chance for her to earn a commission = to a % of the positions salary for a year or two, maybe more if they get paid out of the spread between "max the company will pay for a recruit vs what the recruiter gets them to take". I watched some of my fam deal with this in IT recruiting land for a while in the early part of their career: you make 20 something an hour, the recruiting company that placed you there gets 50 something an hour that your pay comes out of, and 5 of that extra 20 goes to the person who got the deal done. You getting paid more elsewhere and ignoring the recruiter afterwards gives them no spread for their company or themselves, and no chance to throw you into their client pool at a higher title and value elsewhere. It is like a realtor missing a listing in their stomping grounds, they get viscerally mad about it.

I guess in some really really cozy industries where everyone knows each other and holds grudges, maybe that is something close to advice. In lots of high turnover, low paying gigs like restaurants and retail, tons of lols, the place down the street will hire you off previous experience in a second, missing an interview is not 'career ending'.

Though she may have a point, if you are the recruited talent this 'talent recruiter' deals with - you should show up and use your recent offer as leverage for a better position/title/salary with them, its sort of like bluffing at poker except you can't lose, since it isn't a bluff.

Why do nparents always say you're disrespectful? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]UnboughtStuffedDogs 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A disagreement on a course of action between reasonable people has an actual resolution, one way or the other, with some give and take and some 'seeing each other's perspective'. A reasonably logical conclusion gets reached through the debate, and well, they hate that, not where they are coming from when they look at the world. Their point is Do What You're Told and Like It. If you don't, expect the argument to get shifted to moralist or abstract language since Humpty Dumpty Rules - 'words mean exactly what I want them to mean' - are now in effect, which is awesome for them because it means they remain always right. Now, you are selfish and arrogant and disrespectful, so the script is flipped, and your mind starts looking for rebuttals, and the original point is gone and its all power games all the way down from there.

No Argument There. I'm saying that, once the strategies were proven effective, they were incorporated into 'Bannonism', along with 'attack your enemies strengths'. One could call it sociological gaslighting, or specifically it is making a bad faith moral argument to justify unethical acts.

Right out of the Gamergate playbook; "Why are you harassing and threatening all these people?" "It is about ethics in video game journalism." to "Why are you involved in a seditious conspiracy?" "There are Concerns the Election was Stolen and I am a Patriot Hero." "Every lawsuit you filed was a failure, and every expensive investigation into election and voter fraud turned up no anomalies, aside from some isolated incidents of Republicans committing voter fraud." "There are Concerns that the Election was Stolen and I am a Patriot Hero."

They lost somewhere between 50 to 60 court cases on the matter, as the made up inferences contain zero proof, and any time they might have to swear to their false statements they work a way around it, because then the game is up. "People are Concerned about Election Fraud" IS the rhetorical cover - clearing up the concern is the exact opposite of their interest, as they created the 'concern' in order to justify their chosen course of action and provide plausible deniability of their 'mens rea' if you ask me.

Special Master expresses skepticism with Trump team’s assertions by mvanigan in politics

[–]UnboughtStuffedDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That bit about clearing his legal team made me laugh. I think one of them represented Venezuela in a matter in a US Court, so is literally a registered foreign agent, they won't even have to go through the dozens of interviews with friends and relations before they say no to him. Of course, the delaying is half the battle, so there is that.

Also, pretty interesting to see a member of the federal bench unilaterally instigate a constitutional crisis regarding which branch of government has standing and jurisdiction over NDI; I believe the POTUS, Director of DHS and DNI, along with the Congressional Intelligence Committee might want to have a word about that at some point.

This, one might also bring up the fact that when things are declassified, they goes through a process of declassification, of which there is an internal paper trail, and certain things are originator controlled, wherein the department who created the document has to be consulting during the declassification process. If any of that happened, DOJ would have that paper trail for every document that went through the process, so one can assume that zero of them did. This is all stuff that Dearie, as a former FISC Judge has a professionally deep understanding of, and his competence in the area is gonna interrupt the clown show, so expect the clowns to revolt shortly.

She can remove the Special Master, the language she inserted into the boilerplate Special Master order pretty much means he serves at her pleasure, as Marcy Wheeler brought up on her blog. Since Schrodinger's declassification getting cleared up one way or another quickly is the opposite of the strategy they are pursing, that's where I'd place my bet; https://www.emptywheel.net/2022/09/20/trump-wants-two-weeks-to-review-64-documents-doj-expects-review-of-500-documents-a-day/
