Guys I have an important announcement.

This is my desktop right now. And this or that is what it feels like to play Far Cry 4 with it.

And this is how it loosk through a real shitty phone camera's Panorama function.



My dream I've had for over ten years has been achieved. It's not the "perfect" set up but oh my god guys, it is a difference and I am now in the future. My body is now ready for GTA 5.

*Gamergasm*

Like holy shit, Miniman. Thats awesome.

Hail Miniman, for he has the set-up.

Sorry, THIS is my desktop now, I took that last screenshot when I was fiddling with Nvidias shit but I realizes "Oh, DisplayFusion handles everything and doesn't conflict, what a nice program thats kept up to date."

So yeah, the next task is getting Space Engine to run on it.

Is it worth investing over?

I mean, I can understand certain people out there who would earn a living out of this, that's why they would go so far as to build the best of the best but I'm just curious on your thoughts about this.

Also, looking good there Miniman. Great stuff.

The idea of only handling what is traditionally perceived as your own business *your own kids* is a novel concept that I don't find entirely objectionable. The problem with that is that you don't even have to raise your own kids anymore, in fact you don't even have to have your own kids anymore. As obviously *especially in American culture* two parent families and even traditional reproduction is declining in favor. Probably due to the massive population growth of humanity and a lack of a clear definition of responsibility *the meaning being subjective to begin with*, due to several paradigm shifts of certain aspects of the zeitgeist which had typified our culture *I can't count on two hands how many friends I had with single mothers*.
Because of this it's understandable that a generation such as ours would possess feelings of confusion, abandonment and even indignation then turned into acrimony towards the next generation. However I think and feel it imperative to harness these feelings not to perpetuate the errs that our generation faced but instead into empathy for the coming generation.
Every time we interact with another human being we unfurl but one of endless possible permutations within whatever "reality" that whatever we perceive as "we" or "us" "currently" "exists" in. And while deductive reasoning and logic can help us wrap our minds around the chaos of it all, by narrowing down the possibilities, and while rhetoric and manipulation can assist in controlling and creating a desired out come. It can be seen as pointless to try and effect people that we see as outside of our reach or responsibility, whatever we define those as. See Nihilism.
Unless of course, like me, you follow the ideas of causality. More specifically the idea that all time and subsequently possibility exists simultaneously, meaning your decisions have already been made within the flimsy concept of past present and future, but that you're merely left trying to understand said decisions. Cause and effect, like how I was interested in and effected by what I read causing me to create this post which I hope in turn will effect whomever reads it. The beauty of it all is whether or not this post causes changes in your mind in someway and inevitably effects the way you choose to think; think of, or interact with humans in the future the decision has already been made. Yet there is a choice, but I digress.
This is why I believe it isn't pointless, but rather important to do our best to interact with the next generation in the best way we can. Especially considering that they're young and the permutations we cause may resound even longer. And while we can't truly control all of the decisions or ideologies of the seceding generation we can cause an effect through our interactions with them, just as our preceding generation has done to us. But just as we cannot truly control the new, the old did not truly control us, and vise versa. Which is why it's important for us to make the best decisions we can and can only hope that they make the best decisions they can.
While the previously mentioned feelings which are understandable to have for our generation are rooted in the negative reception of our tribulations, these very problems are simultaneously brought on by our generations strongest traits. We're a generation of change, a generation of humans experiencing many new things for the first time. Which is but another reason for us do our best to guide the next generation through the intellectual and cultural landscapes we may not even realize we're mapping.

Too simply sit by apathetically instead of choosing to pass on our limited wisdom would be most foolish.

Quote from Crank

The issue is that it could create this false air that the words are suddenly appropriate in general conversation though this legitimization. And we've lost the 'they aren't words' argument.

We're making them sound okay, and they aren't.

And a real word is a thing is a thing that has stood the test of time, that people find deep meaning and can stand behind. It means what it says, represents it and can be taken seriously. And it's not something confined to a specific atmosphere or location. You can speak English to my face in America, and if we go to England we'll still be speaking it. You can read it in a newspaper, essay or book. It's part of your cultural identity.

We have the start of the next generation rising up behind us, and this is the culture they'll be growing up with.

I don't get your super elite "what is word what isn't" standard, because it makes no fucking sense. Just because a word is in the dictionary doesn't make it some mandatory word that be said every day or we all die. Words update all the time, and who says they won't hold "the test of time"? Have you seen how much power the Internet holds over us?

And the dictionary isn't doing this for "the next generation", they're doing this for the here and now. Having Internet slang in the dictionary isn't going to cause some sort of next gen crisis.
By the way, there are countless words that aren't "appropriate for general conversation" and are in the dictionary, and it should not have some bullshit bias as what words can and can't be used.

If Crank can't look like a smart and sophisticated gentleman whilst saying it, it's not an okay word.
And stop saying nigga! It's not an okay word and I don't approve it! :(

Here is a talk on the subject by one of the people who decides which words go in the dictionary: https://www.ted.com/talks/anne_curzan_what_makes_a_word_real?language=en
