There is a guy on my Xbox Live friends list who has played Fallout 4 (released November 10th, 2015) for 7,741 hours. This is him on the right, me on the left:

That is 322 days worth of playing Fallout 4, nearly an entire year out of his life dedicated to playing this game. Would you consider this a badge of honor or a symptom of extreme mental illness?

with the 2019 mazda 3 there is no touchscreen at all even when the car is stopped. its a completely non-touch display and even out of arms reach .
ive never driven a car thats supported android auto before so im not sure exactly how it works, would the car take over and disable the phone? or is it literally dual screen ala the nintendo DS (touch screen controls via phone included)

oh thats a bummer, my wife's car is a 2018 so I guess they must have changed it for the refresh. not sure how android auto works but i can safely assume it will probably be better than mazda's stock GPS application lol

my wife has a new CX-5. there is a usable touch screen, it's just that the car disables it when the car is in motion so you have to use the knob to change stations or whatever.

personally we both like using the knob, it works well and looks/feels pretty cool. only thing it's annoying for is entering in addresses in the GPS, but as i said before you can just use the touch screen for that before the car is in motion.

my one suggestion is to not opt for the GPS, get Android Auto/Apple Carplay or whatever if you can. the Mazda GPS system is garbage, it is missing a lot of addresses and tells us to take pretty stupid routes

what immediately jumps out to me is the wasted times from 7am - 8am & 5pm - 6pm when you are driving to work. you could easily use that time to practice your singing, work on your standup routine, knitting (red lights only plz) etc.

sometimes i will spend an extra hr or two driving to work just so i can continue working on my hobby (reciting movie monologues). i will call my manager and tell him that im stuck in traffic/have car trouble/etc and then circle the building while i finish up my Pulp Fiction speech

So from what i've gathered, there was a crash in front of him, he was on his phone and didn't stop, so he was cited for such.

However, he reported it as someone had a stroke in front of him, causing them to crash into him? Am I getting this right?

No, not even close. A guy driving an 18 wheeler in front of him had a stroke and caused a pile up. Boogie rear ended the car in front of him because he was following too close. Internet trolls started a rumor that he was on the cell phone because 6 hours before the crash (he was on a long road trip to TN) he was taking video with his phone and posting stuff to social media.

As absurd as this is, it's sort of a self resolving problem since it's literally impossible.

The real takeaway here is that here we are in the year 2019 (soon to be 2020), and large parts of America are decidedly moving backwards in progress on reproductive issues.

This is now at the point where parts of America are more ass-backwards on abortion than much of Africa. Think about that for a second. Against the advice of all medical science, every large and reputable medical organisation, and despite simple historical observation, America has decided to adopt the Philippines approach to punishing women. It would actually be less ridiculous to bring back the alcohol prohibition, but here we are.

Idiocracy isn't a comedy movie anymore, it's a dystopian horror docu-drama.

best way to approach this is to look at the specs of the motherboard & the case, because every single thing in this build will connect to one (or both) of these in some way.

for your processor you want to make sure that the chipset matches the processor, in this case you are good because they're both AMD.

next up is the RAM, if you look at your RAM you are buying two 8GB sticks of DDR4 RAM. so we look at the mobo, it's got two RAM slots (good), and supports DDR4 RAM. all set there.

now we see the SSD. it's a 2.5", so we look at the case to make sure it's got a 2.5" bay that the SSD can sit in (yup). now we look at how it's going to connect to the mobo - SATA 6 gb/s, and you're all set because if you look at the mobo you have connectors for up to 4 SATA 6gb/s connections.

for the power supply you need to calculate the wattage of all your components, but also just as important is making sure the power supply can fit in your case. usually atx power supplies will fit into a micro atx case, you might need to do some research on that particular model.

for the dvd drive, look at the size of the drive and then see if the case has a bay that supports it, in this case it looks like you're good too.

last is the GPU. looks like you dont have one listed but if you decide to go for one, make sure it can fit in the case, size-wise, and has the right connector for the motherboard. and you have to calculate it into the total wattage of the system too.

other ppl can probably give you better info but this is the basics, its been a while since i built a pc tho. a good suggestion is to post your build on r/buildapc, i found that is one of the most helpful pc sites on the internet and its very active.

these guys werent even enrolling in classes, tbh i fail to see how this is any different than an undercover cop posing as a prostitute or hitman. i think ppl are blowing this out of proportion because ICE is on everyone's hate radar these days (and rightfully so, generally speaking)

i dont get what is so bad about this. a bunch of people tried to get into the US through student visa fraud by joining a fake college, they get busted, they get sent back to their country. am i missing something here?

They were given student visas and assumed they were going to a real school. They were only here illegally because their student visas werent valid because it wasnt a real school.

according to the wikipedia article there were no instructors, no classes, there wasnt even a campus (streetview of the school is an office building on a highway lol). so it seems like most of them enrolled in this phony college just for the visa, they had no intention of actually studying there. whole thing seems like an obvious racket to me (and it was), although I guess maybe there were a few very gullible people that somehow did not notice what this whole operation was about.

This is pretty bad justification. After the fact saying they should have known better instead of just admitting that this isnt a thing the government should be doing?

it seems like "Hank Hill buying crack because he thinks it's fishing bait" level of naivete imo, borders on unbelievable. who signs up for a graduate program in another country and then travels across the planet without even so much as enrolling in a single course? cmon
