    What statistics are you referencing? I’m not doubting you, I’m just curious. Regardless of the answer, if we don’t stand up to Russia, we will be doomed World War statistics. Most of the numbers I’ve found suggest a battle of attrition over supplies, not men. In regards to history, relatively few men have died, but the cost of arms has gone up astronomically. Consumer drones might put that into question eventually. That and Putin. If we’re literally talking about the statistical number of deaths Putin has caused, maybe, MAYBE it’s greater than Stalin, but then we get into the definition of “responsibility.” Okay, I’m doubting you, but I want to be wrong.


  • All the kids I’ve met are good at navigating UI, regardless of the platform. They know how to use websites well, but they don’t know how they work. This is a generalization, though.

    I actually had a nightmare last night: my boss took me offline while I was making a script, and I think that’s even scarier for younger generations. This is coming from an older Gen Z.

    They’re so focused on the Clinton’s that they “forgot”, Trump was there too. Also, Vance looks like a guy who would pretend to be an LEO to prey on women and then post on 4chan about it in an essay format. He looks like that agriculture student you know has never worked a day in his life. He looks like a roblox dress to impress face. Sorry if that’s a low blow. Just wanted to vent. He looks like his mom tells him, “he’s handsome,” while his dad spanks him.




  • Not op, I have AMD Ryzen 7, but I haven’t had the issue. I have all Windows bloatware un-installed or disabled, though.

    Edit: I had one issue (one time, so I forgot about it), but I think it was a user error (me). I had to uninstall Linux because I either didn’t update Windows or Linux (I think it was Linux), and their security systems were in conflict. Windows wouldn’t even start until I used the BIOS to uninstall Linux. I had a backup, but a lost of little bit of data because I couldn’t figure out how to make a new one. I reinstalled the updated version, and I didn’t have any more issues.




  • Knives are getting cheaper. It’s nice. I’d avoid the really cheap button locks. They tend to disengage. Assisted opening, liner lock flippers are dirt cheap but can get you in trouble. Vosteed, Civivi, Kershaw, Boker, Kizer, CRKT, etc… they all make good EDC’s depending on your job and county. They are sub. $50, so you may have to make a return. Defects are more common. Check EVERYTHING. If you do have to make a return, pray to the customer service gods. Also, avoid stainless (unless you’re diving) or brands that don’t tell you the steel. Also, if EDC is in its name, it’s probably a resell from alibaba.

    I personally carry a liner lock, gas station flipper most of the time because I beat my knives to shit, working on the farm.

    Also, if you want something from a highly reputable brand, the Spyderco Tennacious is $60 but goes on sale for 50% off all the time. I bought one from Walmart for $30.

    There’s also this: https://www.amazon.com/Spyderco-Persistence-C136GP-Plain-Knife/dp/B002IWWYS4

    But it’s stainless.
