    Psychopath v. Sociopath (re: Silence of the Lambs)

    Like all things psychology, it's vague. Both terms are mostly interchangeable under the banner of ASPD. By definition, these individuals are out-group members, meaning that anything we learn from them is strictly voluntary (on their part). Unfortunately, the first part of ASPD is...

    So, WW3?

    @mikeymikeIt's very clear what Putin wants, and Ukraine isn't a NATO country. This shouldn't have happened, but it did. It's not a "D" or "R" thing. It's a "Russian thing" that they want the land that created their very name back. While the United States and NATO was worrying about genteel...

    For those still contending black people are not punished more for the same crime as a norm...

    The numbers for drug use may not be accurate. I don't put any faith in self-reported data when discussing illegal activity. It's anecdotal at best, and totally unreliable for any metric. Are Police Racially Biased in Marijuana Arrests? - The Crime Report That being said, the apparent...

    For those still contending black people are not punished more for the same crime as a norm...

    A good place for actual numbers without opinion. Some Black intellectuals believe that culture and perceived socioeconomic status, not necessarily nature, are the primary cause of much of the imbalance. This, coupled with the Law of the Instrument are a bad combination. I know this won't...

    Well it happened.....with less than 500 miles on the odometer.

    @herm0016 Wow! That's expensive! Here in the middle of the midwest US, a local shop would repair and paint for around 600 (no new parts though). If insurance is paying, they tend to insist on new parts.

    Well it happened.....with less than 500 miles on the odometer.

    Yup! This is a cheap and relatively easy fix. I agree that it would be 500-600 at a local shop. You could even try your hand at a DIY fix on a bumper like that. I've repaired worse damage than that in my driveway.

    who is wrenching today?

    This morning I fixed the timing chain rattle on my 30 year old , Nissan 240sx (s13 convertible). It's been getting worse over the last year or so, so figured that I'd delete the two upper guides (Nissan says they're not essential) and check the tensioner. It now sounds MUCH better, and it's...

    It should be dishonorable since they refused lawful orders.

    Coming up hot on urinalysis isn't remotely the same. Rather bad example, but I get your point. BTW, even drug failures and DUI were still on my books until actually signing out of the unit. Even in confinement (house or other) they were on my books. The only way to get them off is...

    It should be dishonorable since they refused lawful orders.

    People can, and do change. Painting a group with a wide paintbrush isn't necessarily a good thing to do. It won't make them better citizens after they get out, nor will it help morale in a volunteer fighting force. Quick and painless for the unit, and the remaining soldiers. There's truly...

    It should be dishonorable since they refused lawful orders.

    In this case, the politicians are right. As I posted earlier...it's best to get these guys out as fast and easy as possible for the good of the unit. There's no real excuse for not taking the vaccine, especially considering that they already got a dozen in basic training. That being said...

    Zucker out at CNN

    Worse, Zucker was the guy offering to SUPPORT Trump using the CNN platform if Trump would play along. Good thing that Trump is an egoist and refused. Cn you imagine a crazy world where Fox was anti-Trump and CNN Pro-Trump?

    It should be dishonorable since they refused lawful orders.

    Admin discharges are easy. No need for Courts Martial. We used to put out soldiers using admin separation, and General Discharge (under Honorable) unless they were dirtbags. Fast and easy to send up to the BC. If they were dirtbags, we went for "other than honorable" whenever it fit...

    For everyone who has been unhappy with Newegg in the past... Gamers Nexus: Newegg scammed us! [Newegg Interview Posted]

    I've only had ONE issue with NewEgg in a dozen years of regular purchases. They claimed that I didn't return an RMA in time. I shipped it back, the same day as the RMA was approved. I paid extra for tracking, and it showed that it was delivered to NewEgg 3 days after I shipped it. 14...

    Zucker out at CNN

    Gollust has since made a public statement about the relationship, and it was an outright lie according to Soledad O'brien, via Twitter. Megyn Kelly accused Zucker of promoting Gollust just to keep her close.

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    I started in my early 50's, and can stay mid-pack when riding with groups of people averaging 20 years younger. Don't count yourself out!!! What changed EVERYTHING for me was a workout and mindset paradigm change. Now I'm 56 years old and can hit most any "A" line , or black diamond trails...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    The XR4, SE4 and SE5 are awesome all-around tires. The guys at your shop are dead-on. Good tip on the 510's! My Danny MacAskill 510's are getting worn out. Never have an issue selling used gear. Just lucky (check the username?) I guess. Maybe it's because I set the price too low to...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    That's how it started with my wife, but after her first big crash she got spooked, now sticks to pavement and green rated trails. After my first big crash, I rode the 8 miles to the trailhead, drove to the emergency room for 16 stitches, then straight to the local bike shop for parts and new...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    The Fuel EX is a solid platform. I noticed the XR4 tires (good choice). I run either the SE4 or SE5 depending on what my state of mind is. I tried the XR4, but my bodyweight and riding style didn't mix well with it. I weigh in a 225 Kitted up, and I'm fairly aggressive in the chunk and...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    That was about my total budget for startup years back (including a less expensive bike for the wife). BTW I like the Kuat racks! I have one on the daily driver car. I'm more of the bike-bum type (good since I spent my budget on the bike), so a couple pairs of Club Ride Shorts and misc...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    Ahhhh! WIth bad knees I can totally see where you're coming from now. My own permanent injuries are my feet. Broken them many times, now they're mostly bone spurs and fused joints. I can still ride flat pedals and that's all that matters. When they get bad enough that I can no longer ride...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    Ummmmmmm....rigid front forks are still a thing. More than a few single-speed guys on my local trails also ride with rigid forks. I call them masochists; they call themselves purists. I guess it's a matter of purpose and point of view? I have noticed a trend of those guys, in that they often...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    I didn't add the initial cost of the bike/helmet/glove/shoes/shorts OR cost of the bike, since that was 2018 riding season, so if you subtract the cost of the bikes and initial gear, you did pretty well. Most newer riders get into the whole gear-junkie thing, and spend more time looking for...

    I only spent 125 dollars this year mountain biking!!

    When I got into this sport, money poured out of my wallet as fast as the blood flowed from my trail wounds. This year I'm finally good enough to rarely crash, and I'm happy with my gear, so both blood and money stopped flowing. Lifes good for now, and I figured that I'd share Here's what I...

    Police terrorize a 10 year old black girl because she drew a picture of someone bullying her

    So...after the last school shooting (Oxford, Michigan) I see the similarity, except for the ending. I'm certain that some will start to think about it, while others will do as they usually do, which is to argue how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

    Neil Gorsuch is a POS and here's why

    So the score is: 3 supreme court justices deny all parts of the story outright Truth is that many people believe in something if they want to be true (Confirmation Bias). It's human nature. What's unusual is doubling down on dumb when it's proven wrong/false.

    Question High air flow throughput cases?

    That Lian li (the 215 I believe) is a good case. The AirFlow is also a good choice When I'm on the fence with a purchase, it helps me to make a list of what I need versus what I want In my case, I downsized from a modified Cooler Master CM 690 Full -tower with 9 (not a typo) Noctua NFA12x25...

    Question High air flow throughput cases?

    OP, A you set on a mid-tower? Check out the Fractal Meshify C. hard to beat the airflow/size/price. The one drawback is that it's small, and if you plan to use a 360mm radiator setup, you have to remove the bottom drive cage. That limits you to only 2 drives (plus however many NVME...

    Tacoma Frame Rust avoid altogether?

    I own two Tacomas (2003 and a 2004). The 2003 truck, I cleaned and rust-proofed it after purchase, and the other I bought after the factory installed a frame replacement. I coated both with Cosmoline, back in 2013. They look the same as the day I coated them....no rust. Personally, I would...

    How many of you have never driven a car older than you?

    My newest car is currently a 2004 Toyota Tacoma. My oldest is a 1995 daily-driver Dodge Neon with 283,000 miles. I drove a 1969 beetle 1300-s in high school, and a slew of 1980's Ford Escorts (couldn't seem to kill them), 3 series BMW and Opels before settling down to whatever was cheap and...

    Awesome ride! These trucks are damn near mechanically indestructible. Keep the rust at bay and it might outlive you. My favorite is Cosmoline RP-342 for rust-proofing. Mark

    Discussion Is this rust to be concerned about?

    OP, As others have said, This depends on how low the price is and what your expectations are. If you only plan to keep it a few years, AND the price is far below average AND you expect it to have some issues...then go for it. --My point is that if you plan to keep the truck forever, then...

    Should the US defend Taiwan with military force?

    Think along the lines of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Colonial Privateers were actively attacking those colonies, who were heavily French at the time.

    Should the US defend Taiwan with military force?

    You are correct. Taiwan should forge their own independence just like the colonies. No country volunteered to fight in order to assist the colonies against England. They were willing to sell arms and supplies to the rebellious colonists. The colonies went to war, until there wasn't...

    Should the US defend Taiwan with military force?

    The U.S. sells weapons and military aid to EVERYONE. It's what they do. Then they wonder why bad things happen.... The same people worried about internal gun control sell aid and weapons to Afghan rebels, Saddam Hussein and Panamanian Dictators. What's your point again?

    Should the US defend Taiwan with military force?

    Good song to listen to by Grace Potter talks about this very thing...... Except that the govt. of the U.S. does not recognize Taiwan as sovereign. The U.S. would therefore have to invade "China" (the State Department adheres to the "One China" policy,) in order to invade Taiwan. Therefore...

    Should the US defend Taiwan with military force?

    Trade partner...sure...I'll buy that. However, NATO countries aren't provinces of China. Not even in the same ballpark as far as actions go. Your advocating violent conflict to take a province away from a country because the province wants "freedom" (whatever that means anymore). It's the...

    Should the US defend Taiwan with military force?

    Generally saying that arguing about military actions when you aren't versed in that arena is basically arguing for the sake of arguing. Many of the arguments in this thread weren't relevant or realistic. Also, several people in this thread have formerly raged against this exact sort of...
