Like I said, I was agreeing with your title. Thought we were going to have an interesting conversation on AI generated rage bait. Here we are instead.

Technically, I didn’t read the post, but agreed with your title. Then all of your comments after I’ve accused of baiting, but yeah maybe the post was just to bait too.

Stop trying to bait us.

No. No it was not. None of them have been.

Let’s take your first question.

Honest question, are you good just passively watching all this MAGA shit spread?

There was nothing honest about this. I said I didn’t want to read the Facebook post. An honest question would have been:

I know there are many reasons why not you but why don’t you want to go on Facebook?

That’s an honest question.

You had a very obvious agenda. You are obviously trying to bait me into some argument, which I am not getting into with you. Your question was completely dishonest, because it both did not ask me about anything relevant to what I said, and there was also no way for me to answer you without you having a fully planned response.

We aren’t taking the rage bait. That’s for Facebook. Stop trying to bait us.

Why do you turn everything into an inflammatory question?

Me watching it isn’t going to help anything.

Not going to look at the link, but I see it’s Facebook, and from my last experience over a year ago it was well over 90% AI generated rage bait

Yeah I tried tabby too and they had like a mandatory "we share your code " line and I hoped out. Like if you’re going to do that I might as well just use claude

It’s nothing new that we are forced to deal with their problems

It is true, and I counter that with if you choose to live far away from people then you will be prioritized less. Things get fixed faster when there are more people affected, so when you choose to live miles away from anyone, when your power goes out it’s not a high priority. I argue that that’s their choice, and that it’s deserved when it also costs much more for that one person to have power compared to thousands of people getting power for relatively the same cost in an urban area. Harsh I know, but that’s how the money flows. They can always move to an urban area if they choose that services are more important than living rurally. More or less I agree with you, but I would tell them “you chose that”.

Same! They’re absolutely terrified of my city and to me it’s like, what the place where I walked to get my bagel this morning?

God people in rural communities are so stupid when they vote. I live in a very lopsided state. Just for ease of understanding, about 80% of the state is rural, but also 80% of the people live in the cities. Rural folks often forget just how many more people live in cities.

So they get resentful and say “why are MAH tax dollars going to all them city folks”! I’ve had this talk so many times with them, why should they pay (like pennies or their salary) to my city improvements just because they’re state taxes?

Well, rural guy, because in actuality “us city folk” subsidize all of the rural state. They think they’re paying for our stuff but turns out density is way cheaper and way more economically viable than rural. So we subsidize them all the time. I always remind them who do they think pays for the roads, the infrastructure, their state parks? It’s not them and their low tax income. Their life depends on the city people

And then they vote to hurt us by cutting programs… And forget that we were paying for them to be on those programs.

From OPs anger I think we can assume he may live 1000km further north

It means extremes for sure. It’s why the hurr durr it’s cold out people are morons, our climates are changing. Warming causes global changes.

Some areas get drier like California. Some places get colder. Midwest of the US gets more intense and frequent tornadoes and extreme storms. My area is getting more rain.

Take what you already get in terms of extreme weather, dial it up to 11.

Thanks for letting us know, in fact it may be worth a today I learned style post because I don’t think people know this

Rule 1. Go pick any of the politics communities.

Yeah, last time I went there was over a year ago and had a similar experience to op, now I go to my local shop. Same price now as mcds, but I get almost 2x the food and it’s better quality.

Agreed. Luckily with RAM, you know pretty quickly if a stick is dead. Yeah the test can run for hours, but in my experience if a stick is dead, memtest will go red almost immediately, most of the time not even making it 2 minutes.

In fact they should try. Due to dual/quad mode the only thing testing multiple sticks at once will tell you is if any of the sticks have failed. Only going one by one will tell you which ones or how many, otherwise you’ll have red herrings

Yeah two sticks at once to me says mobo issue, IF you tested each stick individually and they both failed separately. Maybe not fried, I’d be hesitant to try them in a better mobo to not fry a slot too, but they might still be fine.

Did you test each stick individually to confirm both are dead? If two sticks are in there and it fails all that means is “at least one failed”. That’s just an indicator to go one stick at a time to determine which one.
