I only have NVME drives in my gaming PC currently but you could absolutely use a SATA drive without issue

It required some tweaks to get it mostly working. Right now the only issue is when I get prize care and it drops to 1 fps.

I’ll try to drop a little write up here on the steps I took to resolve some of the jank which might help others like yourself.

I always felt something was off with Project Cars and never purchased it. I might see if I can find a PS4 copy.

I recently and regretfully picked up The Crew Motorfest which I quickly refunded due to Ubisofts always online bullshit causing constant crashes on Linux.

I want to emulate Project Gotham Racing as well.

One thing that truly stands out to me is how much time GT7 wastes not just interrupting me with ‘normie’ explanations of cars history that I already know more about. It’s the animations that make it take forever to do anything.

GT6 on a PC with an SSD means anything you select is basically instant. I’m almost certain I could finish 5 races in GT6 before finishing 4 in GT7 just due to menu animations.

Sorry for the long comment!

In 2004 I emailed Quake III arena to myself using gmail and loaded it onto my schools computers so I was very grateful for the storage they provided

NSFW tag isn’t difficult

Try finger but hole

If you’ve got room in the freezer they can provide much longer term support

I remember the phone cord getting cut with a pair of scissors thanks to yet another $600+ bill due to my sister.

She doesn’t have any more brain cells today unfortunately.

On the flip side if you’re a trained rider, licensed, sober and not riding like you have a death wish the stats aren’t anywhere near as bad.

And those are all factors you as a motorcyclist have control over. I’m also a motorcyclist and I used to spend a lot of time crunching numbers on the stats.

I’ve recently been debunking claims that motorcycle fatalities have skyrocketed in Australia. They haven’t, we just have more riders and the stats are being misrepresented following sharp reductions during the covid lockdowns.

driving is the deadliest method of transportation per kilometre?

Driving is not the deadliest method of transportation per kilometre which it seems you missed.

Motorcycling is deadlier, horse riding is even worse and jet skis are the worst that I’m aware of.

Base jumping would probably be the deadliest but I’m not familiar with the statistics on it.

Social transactions aren’t the same as monetary transactions. I don’t know what you expected.

Studies on altruism are very interesting but almost no relationships are based purely on altruism from what I understand.

From a biological or evolutionary perspective, altruism is a behaviour that decreases the fitness or genetic contribution of one individual while increasing the fitness of another.

I would need a lot more deeply personal information on your relationship and history to answer that for you.

If you genuinely consider what you have previously brought to the relationship and what you’re bringing today I’m sure you’ll find some answers.

I knew someone would bring up children to try and debunk that all relationships are transactional but this is actually extremely simple.

A child’s role is to grow, develop and learn from their parents and society. Very easy on their part as it’s basically all automatic for them.

A parent’s role is to protect, provide, nurture and support their child. All easy stuff to understand.

If a parent fails they will be judged extremely harshly by society and end up with a child that has behavioural problems.

Historically the driving desire to have lots of children was so that some would survive and be able to provide for you in your old age. Still somewhat relevant but far less so than historically.

Turns out pre-modern agriculture the work required to survive was hard on the body and basically doomed the elderly who didn’t have a younger generation to provide for them. So not a problem resulting from capitalism as it was different but present under feudal and tribal societies.

We’ve seen what happens when parents fail, such as a child having an extremely abusive and controlling mother is a strong predictor of psychopathy. Basically all the worst serial killers you’ve ever heard about had abusive mothers.

The only way for children to fail on their end of the transaction really is to die or be severely disabled. When they’re closer to being adults that dynamic changes and some people, both child and parent, have great difficulty ‘renegotiating’ the relationship.

Having children with severe disabilities is devastating and I won’t go into that right now as it’s a massive topic by itself.

Oh and I had a pretty good childhood and am on good terms with my parents but thanks for taking a pity swipe at me lol

The first step is to understand that all relationships are transactional. Not a single human relationship is unconditional.

You start by making yourself useful, pleasant and interesting to be around and people who understand and accept the “deal” will reciprocate and most of them will be reliable.

There are no guarantees so it’s also a little bit of a numbers game. More is better to a point… usually about a dozen close relationships is optimal.

It’s just a closer and more intimate version of the broader social contract. Break it and suffer. Maintain it, nurture it, and benefit.

Learn what you can, and are expected, to bring to a relationship (be it romantic or otherwise) and work on improving what you offer.

All human relationships and communities since the beginning of time have relied on this transactional nature of relationships.

Anyone who says otherwise is blindly naive or misunderstanding what any given individual can bring to a relationship.

So not judging billionaires? Feels like your statement was a bit too broad

Why do you think it is unenforceable? Australia already enforces a ban on these dolls and arrests anyone attempting to import them.

The people interested in these dolls are serious risks to society.

I would rather see every single one of them locked up than let a single child be harmed.

Demons we’ve seen in Frieren so far scale well into Daemon Prince territory.

I reckon she’d have a horrible time because she’s an elf and GW never lets non-bdsm knife ears have a good time

I’ve never heard of this one before but I fucking knew it would be creep central the second I saw the kids in the poster.

Yes but it was bland, vanilla and uncontroversial

Edit: I should mention I didn’t pay to see any of it, I saw her promoting it so free titty pics were appreciated I guess
