Help me build my PC
You can get 2 x 480gb SSD cards cheaper than 1x1tb... probably about a tenner cheaper to only lose 40gb. Don't forget to check out ebay / gumtree / craigslist / facebook marketplace (etc) as you can often find some great deals especially on components. My understanding from what you were saying is you don't want the computer for gaming, more for processing the live stream from your PS4? What sort of specs do you actually need for that?

Help me build my PC
If you want budget, go AMD... they also save on heating bills. Probably a Ryzen 5 with a fairly decent GPU. For context I was running most things at 1080p on an old bulldozer, 8gb of ram, and a 7970 perfectly well for casual gaming... more than good enough for stream editing if the PS4 is going the heavy lifting. Now on a 8700k with 16gb em (planning to go to 32 around 2020), full SSD, and RTX build.

Nationalism is dumb
Time to point out that the Americans owe their existence to the French?

Nationalism is dumb
I don't know, but went through France recently and they saved me quite a few tolls by holding the barriers up on the motorway/interstate type system.

Samus' morality test #4
and this is why self driving cars are stupid. i am not fucking dying cause my car picked it as "the best case" But then it could be a case you either die and kill other people because humans are stupidier and can't make faster decisions than computers From a pure utility perspective should probably always go for the wall. There's a good chance that those in the car will suffer significant injury if they hit the pedestrians at a speed high enough to kill all 5 anyway.

What is this???

Samus' morality test #4
Honestly I'd like to think I'd hit the old people... but the kids might survive... they might be a better choice... but they might also be fucked for life and make your insurance company hate you... Or just don't decide and let Darwinism take its course.

Would You Rather is back!!!
Which did you pick?

Anyone here know a lot about Copenhagen?
Worst case one of my mates is there on a work contract for 4-6 months, so can put you in contact with him!

Samus' morality test #3
Often that Often that is the point, the unknowns make the discussion and the assumptions people make about them drive the different answers. After all, if the mother was dying of some painful nasty disease, it might have been a blessing in disguise.

Snitching doesn't bring her back. Why fuck your life over a second time? Forget the conversation ever happened and carry on as before.

Reminder about conduct in this section
Welcome to the RL / political discussion area. Just remember these are publicly accessibly sections of the forums. We appreciate everyone here will have a real world political view and those can be very strongly held. We have no intention of moderating the political content regarding for or against political groups. That said, as this is public, comments of support for extreme individuals / views on either end may fall foul of some censorship going forwards. Additionally if threads have moved way off topic they may be closed. It is easy in the heat of the argument to let your fingers get ahead of reasoned debate / discussion... we've all been there. We did have a couple of complaints come through the moderation system including a couple who were not involved in the discussion. Just remember, regardless of what our RL position is, we are all on the same side on these boards. If you find that conversations are getting personal / flaming / etc etc, just take a step back and flag the relevant posts either via PM ro a councillor / admin / moderator or through the forums own moderation system. We will treat all flags with the utmost confidentiality. The thread which the recent moderation concerns (as of time of posting) came from: https://ironcentral.org/community/topic/62356-nut-job-mails-bombs-to-democrats/ Issues which will result in Moderation: - Excessive swearing. - Personal threats. - Racial / religious slurs. Issues we will treat case by case: - Support of religious / political ideology. - Anything which threatens the stability of the IRON community. "Causes offence" is not in an of itself reason for moderation; we are not after-all liberal arts students. However if you feel something is outright malicious, feel free to flag it and we will review on a case by case. Carry on the debate!

Samus' morality test #1
As a doctor they'd take my licence away if I left him... so... best take my odds and go into witness protection.

Samus' morality test #2
Having never been in that situation it is impossible to say. I would like to think that I'd take a utilitarian approach and pull the chair and plot some elaborate revenge. Either way your kid dies... in the second scenario you'd likely end up dead too. In the first scenario you have a chance for revenge and the sympathy of other inmates, you could also attempt to make it as quick as possible. In the second scenario (lets assume you survive) the others would likely largely outcast you, and from the survivors of such camps, the best chance of survival is when others have you back. If I were the son, knowing the situation, I'd rather be killed by my father than some stranger.

Talk about escalation

Congrats, Democrats
The TL;DR version of american politics... Reds vote red, blues vote blue, 80% of greys can't be bothered, and the remaining 20% of greys decide the outcome. Reds can't stand blue Blue is exasperated by red The only people that win an election are the politicians, in a two party system severely hobbled by powerful lobbies and politicians with outside interests the average voter can only ever lose.
