History showed it many times: people who annex never ever make it better for the annexed. They always exploit and things get worse.

Quite significant in theory, DDR3 maxes out at about 2000 MT/s (mega transfer per seconds) while DDR5 can go above 8000 MT/s, so about 3x-4x. I don't know if this metric already includes the capability of DDR ram to access multiple data in a clock cycle, but I think it does. If it doesn't, the difference is even higher.

Of course in practice the difference is not as remarkable, but still noticeable. Still, DDR3 is perfectly usable with a decent processor (light gaming and professional software), my main rig is a 4th generation i7 and I have no intention of upgrading for the foreseeable future.

Extra: still use ddr3 and watch the world burn, but slower

That is one case, which is the reason why it's usually culturally/genetically frowned upon. The other reason I guess is to prevent abuse in a parent/child relationship, where it's different because there's a power difference

I think the best is Italy's, Venezuela's and Uriguay's "Illegal only if it provokes public scandal"

Unfortunately, that is not really possible.

The UEFI standard, a pdf that describes in detail the unified system that all motherbpards use during the boot process, is 1200+ pages long. And that's only one of the many subsystems in a modern system (that gigantic pdf tells you nothinf about PCI, about ACPI and usb, nor any other hardware peripheral). Also, since you are talking about a modern system, you also would need kernel, drivers and operating system calls documentation. All of these exist (for an open source OS like linux, and if you follow the aforementioned standards), but bundling them in a book, and keeping them uodated, would be just impossible.

Thank you ❤️. He came to our home more than 5 years ago, already adult. He was most likely a house cat that was left on the street for some reason: in realively good health, but a little skinnier, neutered, but not chipped and every human he encountered he would ask for pets, even complete strangers. For some reason he licked and playfully bite like dogs when petting him.

Once we found him in front of the train station, he was just sitting there taking pets from random commuters coming in and out of the station. He was really precious and a bit needy of love, we gave him all we could.

Do you believe in a God that punishes or one that loves? I'm assuming a loving God, because that's the one I think would exist.

Think about it, if you self harm and are contemplating suicide, it means you are suffering. If someone loves you truly, would they be upset if you are suffering? Of course not, they would be sad, empathetic, caring and understanding.

Ultimately, I don't think it's fair to worry about what God thinks about you. Live is complicated enough even when thinking about yourself. You don't take up space, the world is big, a couple of pounds more are not going to change the fact that you deserve to live as much as anybody else.

Usually Trigger Warning, to warn someone more sensitive to triggers to be careful. Don't really know which trigger would be in this email?

I wouldn't be so sure. From the little I know of Greenland, the people are quite combative of their independence, as all native people are once they have been absorbed by western culture. The prime minister/governor/can't remember the title said quite clearly that they aren't for sale.

Also, I don't feel like 100k/resident is really a lot of money.
