My desktop was first built in 2013 for a workstation board that holds a pair of LGA 2011 chips with 16 channels of DDR3 ram.

Even a device that ancient has been hit by these RAM shortages.

No, it's just stolen valor.

I can't tell if he's joking or if he's just that dumb. There's lots of evidence that he's the latter but he tries to be funny so maybe it's a joke that flopped.

Also, now that we're up to almost 20 teams, isn't their absence going to be noticed? There aren't that many experts on ancient Egypt, Norway, Babylon, or the like floating around. Somebody would notice that many experts vanishing.

One thing I don't get about #Stargate is how the rest of the SG teams get by without an anthropologist. And if they all have civilian contractor anthropologists, why doesn't Daniel hang out with them? Why aren't they writing papers together (even if they can't publish for a decade)?

Come on, pop already. The rest of us want to get back to hardware being affordable.

You can love two kids. You can love two parents. What makes two spouses weird?

It's really just trainers' pokΓ©mon that have that problem though. Most of the pokΓ©mon we meet are more like the Mr. Mime who lives with Ash's mom. They only go in the ball to travel or get healed.

A partially assembled stained glass of a penguin.

Actually come to think of it... my mom does stained glass with one of her art clubs. She says she's too much of an amateur to charge for anything but if you've got a simple design she might be up for trying it.

And in a bizarre coincidence, she's leaving to visit my brother in Nottingham next week.

The only Nazi tattoo my grandfather would have gotten would be one with a kill count.

He was no saint but he went to his grave hating Nazis.

Come Catastrophe or Wake of Vultures got added to the archives in #Arknights. Go play it. It's seriously one of the best Arknights stories and that's a very high bar.

It wasn't as popular on CN because it was the kind of pure Americana that's hard to appreciate without familiarity of the genre.

The US can produce around a dozen interceptors every 2-3 months. Iran can produce hundreds of missiles per month.

Turns out missiles that aim at non-moving targets are much easier to make than ones that can hit other missiles in midair.

So, if both sides run out, they win.

Gotta do something to offset how much cheaper missiles are than interceptors.

Harris says Iran is America's 'greatest adversary,' as Mideast war weighs on U.S. priorities Harris' choice of Iran, rather than Russia or China, underscores how much the Mideast war has shifted U.S. foreign policy priorities.

She was pro-war with Iran in October.

Raping teenage girls isn't healthy for them either. When is the administration going to do something about that?

Wait, pro-EU? Axel Springer bought out American news outlet Politico then made employees swear a pro-Trump loyalty oath.

What's going on with the right wing these days?

If these prices stick around, it'll push adoption of renewables.

I couldn't even find a good gif of the invisible hand of the market. That's how little we think about it, our memes cannot depict it.

Whether they are or not is irrelevant. We need to claim they are to justify why we can't keep up with their domestic weapon production capacity.

It has been a long time since the US fought against a country who could make their own weapons at scale.

He's culturally Christian in that he likes their hatred, bigotry, patriarchy, and so on. He just wants to feel smugly superior about his pseudo-scientific nonsense beliefs from evo bio.

So I'm guessing that Moore was trying to make some kind of political commentary linking one set out outdated laws restricting sexuality to a contemporary law restricting sexuality by showing the moral panic was a few bad actors then how reasonable compromise was possible?

I can't tell you why nobody in the UK has been able to imagine the close in age exemption (or even the Romeo & Juliet law from Transformers) in the past 50 years. Their legislators are just unwilling to legalize teens having sex with each other unless adults get to have sex with them too.

To answer one of your uncomfortable questions from the episode, the age of consent in most of the UK is 16. Flashbacks to the 70s are a reference to a movement from that era to lower it from 18-21 down to potentially 12. When it was written, the big issue was lowering it for gay to match straight.

I'm at the phase in my cold where I roll to one side so I can blow everything out, roll to the other to blow everything out, then repeat.

I wonder if they make people rotisseries.

a cartoon character with a skull on his head is standing in a city holding a microphone . Alt: A giant golden skeleton with a red cape transforming to be taller than skyscrapers so he can beat up a kaiju.

Golden bat is a science wizard who looks like a golden skeleton with his power being the ability to do anything (except talk).

We don't know his motives, the source of his powers, or his backstory just that he laughs in the face of villains when kicking their ass.

He's public domain. Reboot him!

Oh, hey, we're copying the UK again. That has to be a refreshing change of pace since they've been a shitty knock off of the the US, importing our moral panics, for decades now.
