    Having children demonstrates one of two things: wealth, or intelligence.

    On one hand, if you can afford to overcome the obstacles, children seem like a good idea, usually from family wealth, since nobody is going to become wealthy. You’re either born into it, or you’re extremely lucky and you win the lotto or something, which is so unlikely it’s hardly worth mentioning.

    On the other hand, if you’re too dumb to know how fucked we all are, or you’re too dumb to use protection in some form… Well. Yay kids? Idk.

    Everyone with somewhere close to an “average” IQ, or better, who isn’t part of the upper class with family wealth, is basically represented here.











  • I’m not saying I have a better solution or a better setup at home. I’m doing something extremely similar. I would 100% say that my solution sucks… But it works.

    There’s plenty of ways to do it.

    I wanted to get an x16 to dual oculink 8x connector card with a matching dock, so I wouldn’t have to give up any bandwidth while getting high end graphics going, but I can’t find anything that fits that bill. So I have a riser cable bodged together with the case of my system perpetually open.

    It works. I don’t love it, but I don’t have the time/money to find/buy what I feel would be more ideal. So this is what I’ve done.

    I don’t want to give up half the PCIe lanes and I can’t find a way to do that with anything that’s not a riser cable.

    So here I am.



  • Gas stoves have a place, and I’m not about to take away anyone’s choice on the matter. With all that being said, to the title of this article, I say “duh”… Honestly, who thought that cooking using an open flame inside your home was somehow safer than the alternative?

    I use electric, I’ve pretty much always used electric. I will continue to use some form of electric stove. I want to have complete control over the heat going into my cookware, and while it may not be as flashy or as quick to use electric, I can’t see any situation where electric would not be safer.

    Jesus. I’ve administrated a bunch of Adobe accounts in various ways and it’s not always straight forward to tell what licenses are in use and by whom. These pencil necked fucktards thought they somehow knew better than the government IT guys, what’s in use and what isn’t…

    Incredible.

    In any case, I’m glad their eating their own chow. They made this bed and now hopefully, they’re about to get fucked in it.

    I somehow doubt it, but I can dream Harold.



  • Ontarian here. Every time I hear of a USA manufacturer going under because Canada stopped buying their stuff, I find myself smiling.

    To the Americans in the crowd that don’t agree with the child in charge, do something about it. Please. There’s nothing I want more than to stop worrying about how much it will cost to ship something over the border.

    Most of you are cool, except Jeff, fuck that guy. You know what you did.
