PC Freezes if I don't have a game running
  • Google suggests perhaps a bad a Realtek WiFi driver associated with DPC watchdog BSOD / kernel panic.

    To diagnose that, remove all wireless adapters and boot.

    More generally, symptoms on this scale on modern operating systems mean that the crashes are in kernel mode code, which mostly means device drivers of some type.

    So a decent diagnostic method is to remove pieces of hardware one at a time to see if there's one that clears up the issue.

  • Southwest Airlines to assign seats, breaking 50-year tradition
  • They specifically did this because it incentivizes people to sit down fast. They can turn their planes around faster, and the planes spend more time in the air earning revenue. That's what made it cheaper.

    In five years Southwest is going to be just like the rest. Rip.

  • Trump says he is willing to debate Harris multiple times
  • Actually this isn't how it works (in most United States)

    If Donald Trump sues you, he has to prove that you harbored "actual malice" because he is a public figure and politician, and therefore enjoys less protection from slander than regular nobodies.

    You can raise the truth of your statements as an absolute defense, regardless of how malicious you were. But it's still on you to prove it's true, it at least a non-falsifiable opinion.

  • Whale capsizes a boat off the coast of New Hampshire.
  • The sea is especially very cold in the North Atlantic. Here's just how cold the Atlantic is.

    A pilot was flying a small Cessna across the ocean. Along the trip he encountered stronger headwinds than expected, and ended up in a situation where he didn't have enough fuel to reach dry land. He was going to have to ditch the plane in the ocean.

    Fortunately he had plenty of time to figure this out, and he managed to locate an offshore oil rig he could get to. He radioed ahead to let them know he was coming. He made a perfectly controlled landing and touched down in the ocean just 500 meters from the oil rig. He was wearing a full body cold water immersion suit, but failed to zip it up all the way.

    He died of hypothermia in the short time where the oil rig crew was running a tender out to him.

  • Netanyahu has no business in Congress. He belongs in the Hague. We need to arrest that bastard.
  • As far as I can tell, the ICC has not actually issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, or if they have, it hasn't been unsealed.

    A prosecutor has applied for a warrant, but an application is not the same thing as an active warrant.

  • Betting data shows Harris's chances are on the up but Trump is still leading
  • The bookie balances the odds according to how much money is coming in on each side. The bookie's goal is to make money on the vig no matter what the outcome is.

    Economists think these betting markets are better at predicting results than regular opinion polls because people have to risk their real money to participate.

  • LOCK EM UP
  • Specifically several sitting justices have previous white house administration experience where they had to worry about consulting their lawyers because of the illegal stuff they were doing (like Iran Contra).
