Leftist terror cells, lmfao. Like 99% of terrorism worldwide, but especially in the U.S., is and has been caused by right-wing pieces of shit and their fucking little nihilistic toddler-brained psychoses. But go off king, enjoy wasting time and resources chasing hallucinations, I guess.

Try straightening the pins on the 1500X like another user already suggested. I’ve used a pocket knife blade between and outside CPU pins to get them aligned enough that they dropped back in with a slight push, and the lock-in action straightened them further. If no pins are broken off or bent too severely and the socket contacts weren’t damaged, it should start up again.

That board has dual firmware feature, so if/when you get to the Q-Flash screen, make sure to check “also flash to backup slot” or you may have this problem again in the future if the boot slot ever gets toggled somehow.

To respond to your other question, no, it won’t get firmware updates through Windows Update. That generally only happens with branded prebuilt systems like Dell, HP, etc. and laptops. You can and should get the latest firmware and drivers direct from Gigabyte’s support page for your model, just as you are now. The firmware update image can be read by Q-Flash from a USB stick or any internal or external non-encrypted hard drive partition.

I’ll remember that, wasn’t aware as I haven’t followed their videos for quite a while (not for any particular reason, I always found their opinions agreeable especially on the topic of work/jobs).

It was on Twitter I think, can’t recall the date exactly but maybe 2019? Feels like I first saw it showcased on the CTH subreddit. He stated that he supported the idea of DPRK being bombed again because he believes they’re some grave threat to the world, or something equally fucking stupid. If it’s not still in his Twitter post history, archive.org or a user here would possibly have a screencap.

He spoke some big brave redditor words in a brief rant against DPRK or China or similar in one of his past videos but I don’t remember which one. It reminded me of hbomberguy’s outburst from a few years ago. ThoughtSlime also stated that he’s anarchist in one or more of his videos, so it’s a safe bet between that and the rant that he’s anti-AES and anti-anything-else associated with it.

Nearly all job applications here in Burgerland have an agreement at the end where by signing it, you give them permission to verify all declared dates, places, and sometimes job titles and salaries of past employment, in addition to the usual criminal and occasionally credit checks. You can usually tell it’s being done because you get semi-interactive email updates on its progress and sometimes a pause and request for more info.

So how does some random employer even get info like this to begin with? From shit like LexisNexis, The Work Number, and various other harvesters who maintain lifetime databases on workers, fed in part or in whole by networks of affiliated employers who submit employee histories to them. They are the snitch services who cater these background checks to employers.

They’re permitted their own parking spaces closest to the entrance at some businesses here, probably the same ones that build U.S. flag and troop worship displays out of soda 12-packs, or restaurants like Chick-fil-A that set up empty “fallen soldier” tables:

Did you ever see that ‘investigation’ or insider reveal bit about the mods of 4chan? Their Discord names were all posted, with screencaps of conversations etc. and some explanatory narration about who they were or how they acted. I think this was a few years ago, I don’t remember the details, just recall thinking that at least half of them should’ve been put to the wall immediately, starting with that piece of dogshit head mod with the edgelord screen name.

The reveal showed that the site was deliberately and knowingly steered toward neo-nazi and reactionary dominance in discussions and mod actions. /b/ with its juvenile nO rULeSSszZz had been like an open barn door to something like that happening for years and finally it did. A fucking gold mine for psy ops of the CIA and FBI, ever in pursuit of their anti-communist wetdreams while they pretend to be impartial to any political affiliations in all their PR.

Yes there has been a consolidation over the decades into few large, corporate operations. You can still buy fresh produce and other farm goods locally from the same people who grew them in “farmer’s markets” in towns and cities, but these are only in limited times of year and locations. For most Americans the food they buy and eat will have come to their supermarket from some massive factory-like supply chain, average distance of over 1,000 miles away, or something like that (I’ve not read up on this topic in many years).

The documentary Food, Inc. narrates a surprising and dark picture of the state of farming in the U.S., and it was filmed 17 years ago! So food production has progressed further into profits-at-all-cost corporate hands since then. Similar things happened with smaller, often local, goods stores disappearing during 1980s-1990s due to emergence of large shopping malls and multi-department corporate chains like Walmart and Target (you may see this referred to as the Main Street “ghost town”).

Every time I see these reports, I think of how Porky doesn’t seem interested in hiring fucking anyone for the supposedly open jerbs that already existed. This shit is nothing more than porn for shareholders and investors.

That sort of data might be found over at /r/FuckYourHeadlights on the Other Site. So many people are fed up with these eye damaging laser headlights they’ve made a subreddit for it, there is even an organized group with their own website trying to push back against this unrestrained bullshit.

Someone there did a controlled study on a selection of newer cars and posted their findings. The two pinned posts may already have the exact data you’re interested in.
