  • Well now i think im inclined to agree with you.
    I have been defining it as a true chicken is the animal that came from the egg and reproduces the same animal in egg form.

    But if you were to say instead that the final mutation that created the gentically distinct animal we call a chicken, would still be that animal regardless of how it was created.
    Similar to if a chain of self replicating robots is traced back to the origonal unit, its still a self replicating robot even if the first was built by hands.





  • The big irony of the whole situation to me is that getting colbert cancelled and trying to silence him and other talk show hosts is starting to backfire spectacularly.
    You have given colberts show a death sentence and then tried to back him into a corner and he has decided that theres nothing left to lose, he doesnt give a shit about being level headed, reasonable and keeping the peace (unlike conservative media) or tip-toeing around the fascists, he is unleashed and is going to tell these fuckwits what he really thinks and throwing out some wicked barbs.

    By trying to control the people they dont like they have gone full streisand affect and launched Talarico into the zeitgeist, politicians only dream of this kind of viral marketing for their campaign and the tide is going to turn, once the american people realise they actually have some NotShit™ options out there they might elect more and more people who are actually going to represent them and not the values/pockets of the elite.

    Good, go after all the left comedians and media personalities, get them pissed off, lets see what they do when they are off the leash and start giving you back some of the vehemence the conservative media has been spewing all this time.






  • I didnt have the analitical skills at the time to test its performance as i was ~12years old, but i remember it always ran full speed CPU fan and only very occasionally shutdown on overtemp, once i removed the plastic it went back to normal/expected fan speeds. It was probably the AMD Athlon generation CPU from memory, so it probably wasnt being pushed too hard to perform, mostly running Snes emulators and sim city 2000 probably.


  • I once inherited a PC from my older brother, he had built it himself and i decided it needed a sping clean. I opened it up and airdusted with the help of an old toothbrush, but couldnt get some fluff/dust out of the CPU cooler so i took it off to get behind it properly.
    The little plastic cover over the thermal paste was still on the heatsink sandwiched between the heatstink and the CPU.
    He hasnt heard the end of it.
