After reviewing the source, I find it safe to say that they are somewhat of a cult of pseudointellectualism. The Forbes contributor works for The Heartland Institute, and is involved in Republican organizations for the limitation of taxation and decrease of entitlements.

In fact, none of the scientists who believe the earth is warming that The Heartland Institute invited even attended the conference.
Likely as not to lend an air of legitimacy to the conference, which unfortunately only further serves to secluded this group.

Ultimately, I feel that climate change is really not a very important issue anyway. Man has had a very profound effect on the world, its ecology, and its climate since long before industrialization. Just as the ancient peoples of South America cultivated widespread change to the Amazon rainforest, and in large part helped to create it as we know it now, and as the ancient people of Mexico caused drought through extreme deforestation, modern man will have an impact on the world that our descendants will one day be able to study. It's pure vanity though, to think that the Earth itself won't move on, and that any impact we have will be anything even resembling "permanent".

If you're still worried about trying to control the weather, you may have a God complex.

Gaming / Xbox One External Hard Drive not recognized - solution
« on: December 14, 2018, 01:11:50 PM »
Hey, so I don't post anywhere else except discord really, so I was hoping someone else who is more prolific on other sites could spread this info around, as I was unable to find this suggestion anywhere when trying to troubleshoot this drive detection problem.

I recently upgraded an Xbox One S's internal storage, and sold him his old hard drive back in an enclosure so it could be used via usb 3.0

The trouble was, the drive would not show up on the Xbox as either media storage or as game storage. Even formatting the drive did not resolve the issue. I decided to take a crack at something as a shot in the dark and it worked.

I initialize all drives with GUID Partition Tables, and indeed this disk was already GPT when I removed it from the Xbox. Most off the shelf drives use the older Master Boot Record standard though. I converted this drive from to an MBR disk, and ouala, the Xbox now recognizes it as game storage.

To convert a disk to MBR, if anyone has this problem themselves, open up the Disk Management utility in Windows, or on Linux you can download GParted. On Windows, delete all partitions on the drive, right click on the drive at the lefthand side of the window, and select "Convert to MBR disk". On Linux the process just entails selecting the drive and going to the toolbar and selecting "Create Master Boot Record"

When you're done, create a new partition in the NTFS format, as the Xbox will not recognize the drive without a partition.

Transgenderism is a non-centralized cult preying on young boys, designed by no person in particular to shame and convert young people who are insecure or lonely.

Members unconsciously participate in targeting and evangelizing to children, in whom they sow the seeds of mental illness with the ultimate goal of culling these individuals from the gene pool.

Cells grow across developed nations, wherein cultists self-segregate and immerse themselves  in hedonism and reckless self-indulgence. Anyone unfortunate enough to be captured by the magnetic rhetoric of the sociopaths who become the defacto leaders of these cells become slowly reprogrammed to believe that beauty, strength, or whatever else their sex lacks naturally would be the solution to their unhappiness and inability to accept themselves or connect with others.

For the Cult of Transgenderism, fear and regret are powerful weapons, as they advocate conversion therapy to the youngest available, and enforce the idea that transitioning during middle school and early high school is the only way to ensure becoming normal and desirable.

The Flood / Re: Marvel Studios' Avengers - Official Trailer
« on: December 08, 2018, 09:39:56 AM »
>Make a fantastic movie with an absolutely kino ending
>Ruin it with a sequel

I mean, I know that we all knew they were gonna come back from the film release schedule chart, but having the Avengers end on that note would've been brilliant.
No, it wouldn't have. The ending works only in the context that our collective protagonists have finally tasted defeat, and what made it so brilliant is exactly what made Empire so brilliant. It forces the hero(es), and by proxy the audience, to take a step back, and look within themselves to learn from defeat, and grow as a person.

A lot of characters go through this of course, but what makes it resonate so much in Infinity War and Empire is that in the end we're left with that defeat, and truly get to meditate on it. If there's nowhere left to go, and the series ends there, then nobody is going to care enough to do that, because they know it's over forever and there is no coming back from this.

Basically, without a sequel, nobody is going to connect with the defeat, and the ending wouldn't have resonated with anyone. We would all just be bummed out and mad.

Why would they suddenly decide to sanitize their platform of something that isn't inherently wrong when they never had an issue with it before?
because they're now being pulled from the app store for it
weird because twitter has porn on it and so does reddit

They weren’t removed for porn, according to apple they were hosting actual child porn.
You still use this account, Cheat?

if someone challenges you you gotta beat them in order to call yourself better. If a kid challenges the world champ in boxing and the champ says no the kid can proudly say that the champ ran away from his challenge.
Or you can ignore them and win automatically because you place them beneath yourself.

Reading around it, Tumblr was having child porn and other stuff getting posted on there and despite reports by its users, nothing was done.

Then Apple got word and pulled the app because cp is bad for business.

So it's Tumblr doing the least effort possible to get back on the app frontpage, which ironically will render it useless. People will just go elsewhere.
Tumblr violated the NAP, huh?

Good luck 👍
Hope it goes well
Congrats, I hope it goes well. I could use some computer repair services myself as I've been having some serious issues with mine.
Thanks for the well wishes all.

As for Flee, I hope you can find a solution. Most of the time serious component competency issues are more costly to repair than replace, excluding Apple products, due to the eternal shortage of new replacement parts. I recently repaired a 2011 MacBook pro, and though I was able to restore it to working order, I had to inform the customer that the model was notorious for poor thermal management in the discrete graphics chip, resulting in logic board failure. If the system was ever put under a serious work load again the issue would only resurface, even with a 'factory refurbished' board. Luckily he had already found a new gaming machine and only planned to use the laptop for surfing the web, email, and Microsoft Word.

Not all shops are so honest, so be weary if they tell you something isn't going to function as it should without refurbishment, as you may be better off replacing it with something new.

For a while, I've marketed computer repair services by word of mouth. I've also been doing internal storage upgrades for current gen consoles.

Recently I acquired a domain and I'm setting up an online shop right now to sell pre-built PCs and custom system integrations. I'm calling my company TRCX.

For custom integrations (for which we've already had oir first customer!), we investigate the use case the customer has in mind and design a solution that's tailored to their needs.

I've just finished designing our first pre-built, the Arizona Q119, which will go on sale along with a variety of other systems in January.

The Arizona is a fairly typical top-of-the-line gaming pc, which I retail at $3,000 (literally fuck rtx cards why are they so expensive).

Arizona Q119 Specs
Intel i7 8700K (liquid cooled)
RTX 2080ti
32GB DDR4-3000
500GB M.2 SSD & 1TB SSHD; 1.5 TB total storage
Blu-ray RW optical drive
Windows 10 Home
Wi-Fi Connectivity

There is a fairly major boon to UK and EU customers in this model. If you took the parts list and built an Arizona Q119 yourself at home, you would spend £3,767.40. Buying from TRCX, you spend only £2342.

I'll keep sep7afrens updated for when the store goes online, and I hope any of you who are shopping computers in the new year will check us out.

When the site goes live, you can find us at https://www.tr-cx.com

give him some tough love and tell him he needs to just do it

lying to him and saying some bull so he'll feel better (which wouldn't work anyway) would only weigh on your own conscience

before you can get out of a rut, you need a sense of direction and the drive to go in that direction

« on: November 19, 2018, 11:10:39 PM »
I personally believe it is the duty of every citizen to determine whether or not issues are important to them, whether or not they can fully understand issues, and finally know which side of the issue Israel is on.

Failing any of these criteria, I leave that part of the ballot blank.
