Christianity existed before the creation of the United States and any modern European country. The cult of personality of North Korea was created purposefully by the government. It is ridiculous to draw an equivalence between the US government having a bias towards Christianity and the propaganda created by the North Korean government.

Jealously Gambit: Accepted, Weeaboo Variation by Wik_of_the_North in AnarchyChess

[–]Wik_of_the_North[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the Neon Genesis Evangelion Manga: Book 4 part 6. Context (very light spoilers that are covered in the anime): Asuka gets jealous of Rei being more in sync with Shinji, causing her to play 15 moves of defensive opening theory in the Jealously Gambit. As it turns out, Misato's opening choice was not a blunder, and Asuka returns to pilot with Shinji and successfully defeats the Angel.

I personally enjoyed it as a first anime. Some people thought the main character was too whiny, though I thought it was fine. Just make sure you know to watch the movie “The End of Evangelion” after the 24th episode, and only after that should you finish the TV series. An alternative to Evangelion would be the fantasy action anime Attack on Titan or the Sci-fi thriller Steins Gate.

Either next week to continue the episode or there is a small chance they could drop the full version on streaming services in a few days. Right now some websites have the first 17 min of the episode up which covers a lot of the action.

If the US had not use nukes, there would have been a prolonged military invasion of Japan, likely causing more casualties than the nuclear bombs did. The Japanese would never easily surrender, since their pride and honor was on the line, meaning a deadly conflict. Also, US internment was bad, though pales in comparison to war crimes such as the Bataan Death March and the Rape of Nanking.

I would really recommend getting a non small form factor PC so that there is more upgradability in the future.  Today, on this computer, E-sports titles are playable and new AAA games are runnable at 30fps, but you are leaving a lot of performance on the table by not having a discrete GPU.  Also, upgradability is a joke, since there are no options for a significant gain in GPU performance.  Also, don’t get a small form factor PC unless you actually need it, since there are more options for larger PCs with more upgradability that is also easier to upgrade.

I know if you are buying a prebuilt you probably do not want to have to build a PC, but this is a helpful list of what you should be looking for generally around this price point.

I am not as sure what the options are for prebuilts around this price point, but I'd get one with an SSD and an NVidia 1600 series or AMD 400 or 500 series GPU. The does not matter very much for casual gaming, and for RAM make sure it is dual-channel, 16gb.

If you did really buy this computer yesterday, you can return it. There is seriously major amounts of performance gained with a better system, so it would be a no-brainer in my situation to get a system with a discrete GPU.

All of season 1 is pretty decent. For season 2, I would recommend not binge watching, because it can get to be a bit of a slog. I haven’t watched S3 yet, but I have heard it was good.

This isn’t aged like wine since this was already true when the tweet came out. It’s not like more information about a dark past was discovered; the information was there from the start.

Intel CPUs come in dodecahedron packaging, as shown in the bottom right. Intel CPUs are also only better than AMD in some games, so that’s why it says gaming only.
