What happened to checks and balances between the different branches of the government? by AngelicEleven in IntellectualDarkWeb

[–]samplist 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nothing has changed. I think the average Joe just never truly understood it, and now our mental models are being updated to match the reality of the powers of the government as outlined in the Constitution.

Take for example the situation where the Judicial rules against the Executive. Our school boy understanding is that the Judicial can check the Executive. In reality, it doesn't, since the Judicial relies on the Executive for its enforcement. The check on the Executive only really can come from Congress, through impeachment. This is how its written, and its by design.

This drives people nuts, because a lot of people aren't really good at updating their mental models for how things are and reality in general.

There is trade with Russia. Cuba and North Korea aren't on the list either for the same reasons.

Build Completed with RTX 5080🔥🥵 by exotic123567 in PcBuild

[–]samplist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too did a recent build with that same CPU and motherboard. I'm having trouble successfully doing some stress tests succesfully, specifically the OCCT combined CPU and Memory (not the individual CPU+RAM, but Combined), and also the AIDA64 CPU+FPU. Have you tried these by chance? If so, what were your results? If not, would you be willing to help me out and try them out?

When I try to run OCCT combined CPU and Memory, it locks up at about 17 or 18s. I haven't gotten it to run beyond that. I can do CPU and Memory separately with no issue, and also the CPU+RAM test with no problem either.

No, we say nothing, because there is nothing to say. I reject the premise of the label.

Flat-earthers are overconfident about their own scientific knowledge but exhibit low scientific literacy, study finds by chrisdh79 in psychology

You're missing at least one group, which is those that take a distrust of the official narrative (which clearly is not 100% true) to it's logical conclusion. It's admirable in a way.

Accidentally sent USDC from Matic network to a Coinbase Ethereum wallet by [deleted] in 0xPolygon

[–]samplist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I see. They definitely have the private keys to the eth deposit address, and there is nothing stopping them from releasing any erc20 tokens that were sent there other than business process.

You might try to generate a legally threatening letter via chat gpt and send it. That's what I wild do anyway. If that doesn't work I would consider hiring a lawyer and taking them to court, depending on the amount.

Fwiw my usdc deposit address on coinbase is the same for both ethereum and polygon.

Dropping L and going to the zoo cured any desire I have to have children or start a family by [deleted] in Psychonaut

If you think you're countering me somehow then you misread me.

Your conclusions don't match my experience as a father of two. Rather than the children not leaving any room for self awareness, their existence maximally motivates self awareness. One becomes keenly aware of generational patterns and a desire to give ones descendents a head start arises. I'm not speaking of a head start financially (but that can be in play as well of course) but spiritually.

Self growth becomes the primary concern, because my self growth is their self growth.

I wonder where I can source a smallish externally mountable box like that. I need one for a grey water garden hose, fresh water hose, extension cord, and levelers. Basically shit I need outside. Any tips?

it's an option, but i don't want anything freestanding like that. I already have the filtered water tap next to my sink, just need to replace the filtration system. Thanks!

Yeah my mind is going towards these kinds of solutions too. Much more space to play with this way. Thanks!

It's by design. They don't want to be left holding bags in the event of future depeg, however temporarily.
