People like to pick on German companies for this, but the truth of the matter is that finding a company not involved in an era of ultra-nationalism is going to be rare. That's kind of a big part of how ultra-nationalism works.

the creature washed up on a beach near Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, she said: “[He] ran down to the beach with a chainsaw, cut off the whale’s head and then bungee-corded it to the roof of the family minivan for the five-hour haul back to Mount Kisco, New York.

All the while it gets further and further from the requirements. So you open five more conversations, give them the same prompt, and try pick which one is least wrong.

All the while realising you did this to save time but at this point coding from scratch would have been faster.

I mean, it appears to have a respectable amount of engine bay... Maybe a supercharged 6 or LS could squeeze in there and it'd be fine. Still thirsty, but fine.

If I recall correctly, that man is exactly the kind of person they appear to be.

A city I used to live in had a bridge like this in a major inner-city commercial area just outside the CBD. Would cause havoc for commuters because the bridge was for the southern train lines entering the CBD and was on a busy road entering an major arterial.

All the traffic got held up and diverted, the trains couldn't run until engineers inspected the bridge.

I didn't call you a troll. I'm not arguing. So, what admission?

You keep making up these things in your head based on stuff that's been said and going off to some other field to build a bunch of strawmen. It's clearly not working. Subsequently, the original comment remains entirely unrelated to anything you are rambling about. It's delusion at this point.

You wouldn't. It will be quite gutless, even if re-geared, and the steering incredibly washy. Slight uphill will be your nemesis.

Who said I lived in SK? Oh, that's right, I did. I meant Belgium.

But again, now you see why it never mattered to the point I was making which you seem to have literally never understood since you became obsessed with "here" for some reason.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Sorry, you'd given the impression you really wanted to know. My dog's diet has been quite obsessive to you up to this point. It's a little odd, but harmless.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (4 children)

You are loony.

I can only assume, you are wanting to know where I'm from? Even though it's already been explained and you think you've asked but haven't.

South Korea, New Zealand, England, Australia, and Canada. But, again, has nothing to do with anything as these are just places I have lived while there are many more I have been and I won't bother listing them all. That's been explained quite clearly for to correct your erroneous assumptions and get you back on topic. Seems to be pointless, though.

And of course, if that's not it, then I have no idea. At this point, it seems you're either simple or a troll.

Actually, if I recall correctly a friend changed my birthday on the account when they "borrowed" my phone one night.

It's an interesting diet this breed needs. Basically small frozen scraps, but very rich in content. Their digestive systems evolved as nomads north of the Arctic Circle and know nothing else, so a bit of care needs to be taken. His body will do a lot with the vital scraps of tundra animals, and doesn't know how to handle big foreign diets which make him unenergetic and unwell after a few meals.

Tonight's menu is sheep and beef tripe—their organs go well, but their meat and fat doesn't.

Frozen salmon cuts—these dogs know fish as well as reindeer and love frozen meet. They extract all the goods from them.

And a rabbit foot—Fur and bone is common in their diet and helps clean. They can start to poop bad without fur fibre.

One of the more tame dishes considering the other weird off cuts of bits and pieces he gets. Thought some may find it interesting for a bit of an unusual breed outside of Finland.

Edit: And yeah, the photo makes the meal look big and him small. But he's 20kg and that dish is about 3/4 a banana in diameter.

 

Just in case you're like me and forget to pay attention for a moment and three more albums slide on by without realising. It's also excellent, as usual. Probably a top 3 of their disco for my personal taste.

 

Because some genius in Japan wanted to know what would happen if you put a 4×4 drivetrain into a van.

 
 

The elevation change and subsequent plank scrape made eau rouge look like it had a shit stain.

And no, you cannot find the original post anymore. At least it's missing for me, the OP, unless I locate it through inbox history.

Coincidentally, the meme was about mods on shitposts lol. I'll be banned soon 🫡

Seeing him wave to the Lance Stroll Grandstand, I got wondering on his popularity with F1 fans from his home country.

 
 

Gaming

  • Mostly a huge array of co-op games, performance doesn't matter much, just good 1440 frame rate with high settings.
  • HOWEVER, sim racing is my exception and I'm wanting to upgrade from a single 27" to something more immersive. Considering I'm on the most minimal, a TV, triple 24s, or VR are all big immersion upgrades, but each with their pros and cons. But all demanding more of the GPU,ideally keeping rates at 120, even 90 maybe... 1080 for triples, but ideally 1440 all-round to make use of FSR better.

Data Science

  • I need my PC to be a workhorse. Many hours of my week are ETL of big datasets and complex models. Lots of calculation time and lots of loading tables/arrays into memory for queries and transforms.
  • Ive recently gone up to 32GB DDR4 3600 (going to go to 64) and an R9 5900X. It's done nothing huge for gaming, but it's increased my data crunching tasks significantly.

What I have right now...

Guts

  • Asus PRIME X570-P ATX AM4 Motherboard
  • AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 3.7 GHz 12-Core Processor
  • MSI MECH 2X Radeon RX 6700 XT 12 GB Video Card
  • Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory

Storage (This is way behind)

  • Samsung 860 Evo 500 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
  • Silicon Power UD90 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
  • And some ancient 2TB 7200 HDD that's a dying archive only drive

Primary display

  • Acer Nitro XZ272U Pbmiiphx 27.0" 2560 x 1440 165 Hz Curved Monitor

Cooling

  • Lian Li Lancool II Mesh ATX Mid Tower Case
  • Deepcool LT520 85.85 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

Where I'm stuck...

  • Should I go up to AM5 even though I just got the 5900X?
  • Do I then go DDR5 instead of 64GB DDR4 or am I getting too many year's ahead of myself?
  • The 6700XT is not overclocking friendly, for sim racing I may need to bump up if going for more display.
  • For storage, what's the best way to go for a bunch of games installed, but also not having stuff get in the way of data crunching applications and calculations? Should I reserve a drive purely for data? Can I dedicate anything to it on top of the 64GM RAM coming in?
  • Lastly, the display conundrum for sim racing; VR, TV, triples... 49" UW on top of any above upgrades is just way over budget.

I'm basically just after ideas of what to prioritise next, what can wait a while, and what path I should be starting on for future-proofing without spending the budget on future gear too soon while it's all expensive.

Advice much appreciated.
