The Official Thread of Systemic Racism
Ghost_MH replied to SuperSpreader's topic in The Political Re-Education Camp
He's literally being that Reddit asshole that wants to argue over inconsequential details and ignore the main gist of the argument. The right thing to do about anybody defending Columbus is just quote his own words about the raping of girls as young as nine and ten. Nobody cares about the natives on any of the lands Columbus shat all over. However, it makes people really uncomfortable to defend a self-confessed child rapist. -

He's being a semantic douchebag. Columbus didn't commit genocide in the literal definition of the word and that's where Cruz is staking his argument. Columbus wasn't deliberately looking to kill all the natives. He just raped and enslaved them to death. -

I don't disagree, but if we're combining this with a disarming of local municipalities of a degree we've never seen. Then again, I'm one of those crazy people that would love to see the umps in baseball disappear and replaced with AI. -

Even though they suck, I'm sure a city could buy like a million cameras for the cost of these tank things the police love. Even then, traffic violations should be policed just not by the...police. Handle it with AI and cameras or meter maids in souped up golf carts. Hell, you don't even have to pull people over. Just scan their plates and issue them a citation. Here's two easy pieces of legislation. Revenue from tickets and asset forfeitures can go back into the State's coffers. Combine that with police departments having to fund their own lawsuits. -

Here is a great example of America's best. https://news.avclub.com/man-criticizes-rage-against-the-machine-for-getting-po-1843979630 -
Correct. My Surface Pro X's battery life is comparable to other laptops in it's price class. It is very thin, though, so I guess there's that. I have the 16GB model and I'm fairly certain it's the high res screen sucking up all the battery. Not at all. I've built out Linux servers running the Thunder X2 and that thing SCREAMS.

Intel was never going to keep Apple. Only way that would happen is if they merged or some crazy thing like the rumors of Apple looking to acquire AMD a number of years back. Either that or Apple's mobile business would have to tank so that developing their own processors became unfeasible. Intel's bigger issue is Microsoft, not Apple. Intel already lost the mobile market. If they don't come up with something better and more power efficient fast, we'll start to see more than just the Surface Pro X. Either that or they better hope AMD had something coming up. Here's the thing, I have a Surface Pro X. It's a really slick convertible. Even the x86 emulation for 32bit apps is passable. The only issue with this thing is price. Otherwise, it's pretty damn nice. EDIT: I forgot all about Mac gaming...like any other normal human. My take? This will be a HUGE boost for Mac gaming, mainly from portless ports from iOS.

This entirely depends on how Apple wants to go about this change. Microsoft is emulating x86 or more typical laptop and desktop CPUs in their Surface X line. Apple could go this route. Apple could also go the route they did when they moved from PowerPC to x86 and just drop support for older software entirely. We don't really know what this will mean for regular folk going forward. On the Windows side, it's fine. It's just that 64bit applications don't work and 32bit applications are slower than that would normally run. It makes running 32bit applications feel slower than they should be on a computer that costs as much as the Surface Pro X. How Apple decided to tackle this has yet to be seen. That said, this was inevitable the day Apple started making their own processors. I don't know how much Apple cares about the professional and prosumer market. They've never been very good at supporting their own software, I can't imagine they'd want to support multiple instances of the same software for different architectures.

Someone correct me if this is apocryphal, but didn't he get a holiday just to appease a bunch of white people who wanted a holiday to celebrate a Christian white guy? -
