Paying it off is only half the battle. If we don’t answer the question how did we get here?, we’re doomed to fall right back into this hole. Fact is, the government simply burns through money like it’s going out of style and until we elect representatives that use our money more responsibly, we’ll keep piling on more debt.

You can only rack up so much of it before foreign holders of US bonds start liquidating their positions or buying less of it. Once that starts happening en masse, all the cards will fall and it will be ugly.

I can share my config.plist and other files. However I was never able to get integrated graphics to work. Instead I purchased a Radeon 5700XT and used WEG. This gave me accelerated graphics. Can still share the config if it’s helpful to you. You will need to remove the memory map information and update it unless you have an identical motherboard.

While it's probably true that there are people who might struggle with porn, there are plenty of people who struggle with addictions of all kinds - alcohol, gambling, opiates, etc.

But there are certainly valid questions that come up with stuff like this:

  • Is the government's place to enforce a mandatory 18yr age requirement to view porn?
  • If so, what kinds of unintended ramifications are possible from imposing such a requirement? I can think of quite a few, but I'm curious what others think.
  • Could it be argued that this is an attempt to legislate morality or impose censorship?

I think that these are fair questions and perhaps the meat and potatoes of the issue lies a bit deeper than anyone's sole opinion on whether porn is "bad for you" or not.

Well I mean actuaries are like savants. Years ago in uni my calc III college prof was one. Amazingly sharp dude. Do I think insurance companies over-generalize their risk assessments? Yupp. Do insurance companies likely ignore their actuaries and set premiums to make outrageous profit? Probably.

Disclosure: I hate insurance companies. Also that professor was super weird

Tik is a huge source of WWII misinformation? That's funny. I've watched tons of his WWII videos, they are excellent. His day-by-day series on Stalingrad is fantastic. Can you elaborate as to why you believe that? He agrees with the point that oil was a major driver for the invasion of the east. So is that statement misinformation too?

Sure do you want the config.plist? I will warn you that after months of use, I can say it's only 99% stable.

It is 100% stable during use, but during sleeps and suspends I get framebuffer KPs associated with the 5700XT graphics card I bought for it. I'm not using WEG - I was told my framebuffer issues are due to its absence. But last time I used WEG I couldn't boot to login. Something about WEG perhaps not supporting the MacPro9,1 SMBIOS I'm using.
