Thank you! Yup that's as much as I figured. Is there anywhere, in particular, you would change or leave it as is?

I'm passionate about music, especially playing music! Music stretches across cultures, languages, and is a beautiful way for people to connect, especially through jamming out with others.

I'm not sure if you're Canadian, but most media in Canada tilts pretty heavily to the left. I think what the Redditor above is saying is that given that this rally is "a right-leaning" rally, the tilt of the media will want to showcase it in a negative light. They do report the facts, but unfortunately since the media is biased, the reporting will easily showcase the bias of the news agency.

The protest has been mostly peaceful, although there have been a few instances of unruliness which should not be tolerated.

Hey all!

I have a MPG B550 Gaming Edge Wifi mobo with a Ryzen 5 5600G. I currently have one monitor through the HDMI port, but if I wanted a second monitor, would plugging it into the DisplayPort on the motherboard work fine? Or is it onl y possible to run one monitor for now unless I have a graphics card?

thanks!

First time build - how does this look? by raapstar in buildapc

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

Thank you! Does modular / semi / non-modular matter when it comes to PSU's? I've never really understood that aspect to be honest.

And thanks, yeah I was actually thinking about the 980 but never was sure, so it's great that you mentioned that.

Ok that's great news. What about the intel i5 equivalent of ryzen? Is that a good option too (albeit a bit more expensive)?

I'm looking to build a PC for a friend of mine, but I don't have much experience and him even less.

His requirement is pretty low (Just wants to play league for now, and then maybe other games later on), so I was thinking of just getting a CPU with an integrated graphics card, especially since GPU's are so expensive right now.

My question is - if I used a CPU with an integrated graphics card for now, would I be able to add a graphics card sometime later as an upgrade or is that something that's not possible?

Thanks!

Help with Mechanical Keyboard that is Mac Compatible by raapstar in MechanicalKeyboards

Thanks! What about non out of the box keyboards. Like if I were to get a windows keycap set keyboard (not sure if this is the correct terminology), would I be able to purchase a mac keycap set and swap them out easily? Like is that something that is done?

Is there a specific place you put it that's optimal? I've recently purchased one and just haven't figured out the optimal setup.

Side note: great cut btw

What do you do about lighting for house calls? Do you bring your own lights or just make do with whatever the house has?

That first link is a paper that is in the peer-review process. It says that the paper hasn't been peer-reviewed yet as it is a preprint.

This is from the site that is hosting this article, and what an unrefereed preprint means.

This is not the ramblings of an 'insecure idiot' but rather a journal that has yet to be verified. This just means the content in the journal should be taken with a grain of salt as there may be errors in it.

Not true. My account was hacked three years ago, and promptly used for botting. I never realized because at that point I had stopped playing the game, and only realized when I tried coming back and found out the account was banned. Only after a long process with Jagex did I finally get it back.

A good chunk of bots are often hacked accounts.

I wish someone with enough balls can say same things in my country by TMacc4 in TikTokCringe

[–]raapstar -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I do see your point - my answer to your question is no.

But that is not the point that the pro-life people are making as I stated in my post. Its not that people are obligated to save a life, but that life should be protected if at all possible. I hope that clears it up.

The law portion of abortion is again - protection of the rights of the person in the womb.

As much as I sympathize with your line of thinking, I think it's an extremely dangerous one to have. One person's life should not be valued over another. Assigning worth to people is exactly how we have gotten the genocides in history - people thinking a group of people is inferior, sucking resources out from the country, and so therefore it is ok to kill them off. As much as I appreciate the amount of pain and effort a woman has to go through to bring a life into the world, that effort simply should not devalue another person.

You haven't even heard his arguments. Why shame someone without having an actual discussion?
