This is cargo cult statistics. He's seen the words used before and has a surface-level idea of the context, but no understanding of how they function or the concepts behind them.

For Trump to have "34 times" the felonies, Obama would need one. But if that were the case it would still be 0.756 per-capita for white presidents and 1.0 per-capita for black because there have been 45 white presidents. Now if you said, "since 2008" it would still be wrong, but then we could at least say funny things like "on average, white presidents since 2008 have had 17 felony convictions per-capita," implying that half are Biden's.

Yup. Trump's a showman first and foremost. Anyone who doesn't get that is doomed to lose to him in anything where charisma can carry.

I don't think he had a chance in hell of winning the office, but I would have loved to see a Trump vs. Ramaswamy debate. I think he was the only one of the Republican candidates who may have had the spine to understand that the way you beat Trump in a debate is to be Trump but smarter. You call him some names, you shout over him, you assert your dominance just as strongly but you aim your shots at his weaknesses.

Make a dumb face, mock his "I had the greatest. The world's best" and follow it up with an attack on his history of surrounding himself by yes men who tell him he's the greatest while he fumbles around in the dark. Or give an explicit plan for something, wait for his vague reply, then jump down his throat.

I really don't understand how none of the other candidates have figured it out. That's actually why I consider Newsom the biggest threat. He's a complete and total sleezeball, but he has a showman (well, a used car salesman) side too and he lies as well as Trump. Fucker holds up his time as mayor of San Francisco as if it were a positive thing while lying through his teeth. He's in his 50s, he speaks well, women will vote for him because he's attractive, he's well-connected, and his policies are the worst of the worst. He's a huge threat.

A Jew living in the West is often just as loyal to his country as a white person.

What is "his country" in this context...

Trump just lied without being corrected all the time.

Half the time. But they themselves up for that. With equal time and no interruptions,. just hit Biden with a different accusation every 10 seconds during your time. He'll try to respond to one of them, poorly, in his time and look like he didn't want to discuss the others.

There's no debate format where he doesn't lose except maybe where you have Trump vs. a panel of moderators while they keep the camera off Biden - which is what the left is used to.

David Spade (Whoever that is)

The guy who played Joe Dirt. Another SNL comedian. Also kind of based. Back in 2008 Phoenix PD was complaining they were having cartel problems and Spade gave them $100k to buy a bunch of AR-15s.

Well, certainly not in Europe.

Europe doesn't have a large native-born black population skewing the stats.

but the system is also run by people equally stupid

That's where you're wrong. They need a continuous trickle of "creep caught with tons of child porn" stories to justify the ever-increasing surveillance state. If they scooped them all off the street in one go, what other boogeyman solicits enough emotional response from the public to get them to accept having their personal communication scanned, cameras at every corner, 24/7 tracking and monitoring, etc?

Damn. My money was on plain old Public Indecency or maybe Lewd and Lascivious Conduct for going at it in a public facility of some sort.

Depressing nihilism.

For magical girls, better to go with Nanoha and teach her that all you need for to form strong friendships is overwhelming firepower and the resolve to use it.

Bullshit, nicotine is one of the few things to increase T.

It's not about testosterone. Nicotine and cotinine cross the blood-testis barrier and have mutagenic properties. Your T can be off the charts and you can still be damaging the DNA of the sperm.

All I know about this is WeWork famously made it huge in this space and then imploded under a bunch of metoo and diversity grievances (and some actual mismanagement). Then lost 99% of its market cap and got delisted.

DJ DOC - Run To You

Oh wow. Now there's something I forgot existed. But they were always considered hip-hop and not "K-pop." OP complaint is the Korean version of "ALL pop music is being infested with rap and hip-hop," not claiming that some of those elements never existed.

Like looking at Western music today and trying to find any non-degenerate pop act left.

you don't have to use it unless you care about RGB

Allow me to change your world: https://openrgb.org/devices_0.9.html?search=deathadder

One program to do all the RGB shit instead of having to deal with the trash from Razer, Asus, Corsair, etc. Can be a little less feature-complete, but is muuuuuch more lightweight and won't constantly try to sell you things or make an account.

My understanding is AMD generally supports open source initiatives directly (OpenGL, Mesa). Nvidia hands you a proprietary binary and says "this is for Linux, good luck." AMD is more philosophically open source. You kind of get the feeling that Nvidia's Linux support is maybe more a side effect of the data center / AI business where Linux is industry standard.

That's beyond me and you're probably at least partially right about kernel architecture coming in to play.

You might find this interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReactOS

For non-driver stuff if you were going to ask, "what if we just put a layer between the application and kernel and convert all the calls?" That's basically what WINE is.

Edit: This is a bit closer to what you were asking for, but I'd never heard of it before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longene

tl;dr: It's been tried but either died off or isn't fully functional after decades.

Not my area of expertise, but I'm pretty sure you're talking out of your ass. The application is looking for certain resources. If those resources are provided by something in userland or the kernel isn't really the application's problem.

Your main issue in running things like games is going to be GPU drivers. Since those aren't very open, you are going to be at the mercy of whatever OS Nvidia/AMD/Intel feel like supporting.

I can't tell what this is trying to satirize. The left, the right, sitcoms, some sort of meta satire about what boomers would make as satire?
