I never had contact with one of these. I'm a millennial that had a computer kinda late. So you're welcomed to correct me. It's just what I understood from videos explaining old PCs. My understanding was that at the time a new CPU came out that had higher clock speed, but old software/games was locked to the old CPU clock speed. So the Turbo button downclocked the newer CPU to old clock speeds for that software.

@graf @Aether Wasn't it kinda the other way around? You needed the "turbo" function to downclock the CPU for backwards compatibility reasons?

And people wonder why so many people on the right wing call trans people insane. When someone tries to chop their hands off by themselves, we send them to the psychiatry hospital. I bet nobody gave a crap about this.

I am quite tolerant and accepting of trans people. I don't care if adults seek medical professionals for whatever hormone treatment or cosmetic surgery. But this?! For his own good, this person needs to be locked up in a mental asylum.

@beardalaxy I mean... the people who created BLM used the money donated to them to buy a million dollar mansion. I'm not that surprised that people tried to scam and profit from a guy's death. Honestly, it's amazing that things like this don't happen more often (or they do, and we don't notice).

@beardalaxy What was the campaign for? If it was for medical expenses, and he died, maybe it wouldn't be valid to keep the campaign going.
Also... who set up the campaign? Cause if it wasn't the victim, or the family of the victim, if it was a third party, it might very well be the family that is threatening to sue cause they don't want attention being drawn to them.

At least it looks like the future AI overlord will have a sense of humor.

I'm not surprised they arrested him. I'm surprised that they arrested only one journalist for possession of CP.

@icedquinn As long as you don't drive all the way to your parents-in-law and kill them, it's fine.

@lottev There are few things in the world more cringe than Anakin's rizz game.

@icedquinn What about ice cream after bed? Or even ice cream during bed?

Have you ever thought why Muslims are forbidden to eat pork? It's probably because a goat fucker got tape worms. Those fuckers supposedly give you crazy stomach aches and cramps.
So Muslims go violent over not eating pork because someone wasn't smart enough to cook their food.

@beardalaxy Yeah, I haven't used it since way back. I knew about the ad program, and their own crypto wallet. I even remember something about a system they advertised, that they'd share the ad money with sites/creators you whitelisted. But I have no idea if that ever actually worked, as in, if they actually ever payed any creators for you viewing ads on their stuff.
Didn't know about premium features though. I might have another look at modern Brave out of curiosity. Last time I used it, I ultimately left because it had a slow start-up time, and I didn't really find it justified to be that slow. Vivaldi feels pretty slow too tbh, but again, this thing is ridiculous in what it includes. It has a mail, calendar, and RSS client included in it for some reason.

I really believe, that the one thing that separates the left and the right is, that vast majority of lefties are literally too retarded to understand the tolerance paradox.

Ironically enough, they quote it quite often too.

@beardalaxy You mean the Brave browser? Haven't used that thing since it first popped up. I have no idea what it's doing these days. Is this it?

@beardalaxy Oh no, I wasn't calling the guy antisemite because of Iran shit. He was just spouting the usual "muh Jews, muh white race" and whatnot.

Imagine being the person that legitimately thinks that the extremist Islamic regime, that funded multiple terrorist organizations, doesn't lie.

I just.... sigh... It's my fault tbh. When I talk to people, I generally assume everyone involved is on my level of just average 100 IQ. Every once in a while, I'll see someone who I'll even think is way smarter than me, but maybe they lack a specific context or niche information. Honestly, even when I call someone stupid, I do actually think they're average IQ. And I usually blame ideology, misinterpretation of information, or general ignorance of information, for the big disagreements.

My mistake is that I forget 50% of humanity is below average IQ, by definition. Two figures IQ is a real thing. And I should actually take that possibility into consideration.

A new height in antisemite stupidity: Iran was definitely not making a nuke, because Iran said they don't want nukes.
