Don't show. Guide them to do it themselves. Never be the one to actually do it beyond the first time.

If they still refuse to learn, make them take notes. Make them read to you their notes from last time. Make them tell you what each step is and means.

Make asking you the hardest option for them to get what they want.

They all have to work (at least to an extent) using only x1. It's part of the PCIe spec.

Missing pins are actually extremely common. If your board has a slot that's x16 (electrically x8), which is very common for a second video card, take a closer look. Half the pins in the slot aren't connected. It has the full slot to make you feel better about it, and it provides some mounting stability, but it's electrically the same as an x8 that's open.

USB the protocol, or just uses a USB cable? If it's not using the protocol, the cables are a cheap way of getting cables of a certain spec.

Why would you ever think that dealing with Wells Fargo was going to be in your best interest?

The denial after the fact is a necessary coping mechanism. Otherwise, they will suffer from the guilt of killing their child.

Which they absolutely did.

California is net neutral. Whether it's a giver or taker state depends on the year and the exact criteria used, but it's never very far from even.

That said, sister relief is an area that California gets the shaft.

An electrified future would be the only silver lining that can come from all of this, even if it is from swastikars. The chargers (going forward) are standardized and universal, so the infrastructure will work for others as well.

Most instances defederated from them. I'm kinda surprised db0 isn't one of them.

This might be interesting. I turned off all of my Google history years ago. I presume they still collected all of it.

This could reveal some of that.

You're glossing over the most important word:

The payment was made just before everything got DOGEd

It was a valid payment, not made in error. They decided after the fact that they didn't like the valid payment, and reversed it. This likely involved fraud, because that's not a valid reason to reverse a payment.

It sounds like a daytime event. If it runs that late, it interferes with nighttime events, most notably drinking/getting laid.

They didn't "create" money. They "extracted" it from the working class.

"Lemmy is independent Reddit" has worked well for me

Yes, see Israel.

This can get a bit complicated with federation. This community is hosted on LW. I am accessing it via sopuli.xyz, and you via feddit.uk. All (presumably) have full bidirectional federation with each other.

When I hit send, this message will go to Sopuli's outbox, which will then sync to LW for this community. At that point, this post will live on LW's servers. Anyone accessing LW directly can see it, even if Sopuli were to go down. Later (probably less than a minute), LW will sync to Feddit.uk, at which point you will be able to see it.

Note that this is for text posts only. There have been some changes around images and video, both for bandwidth and liability reasons.

We don't have 5 9s, but we do have 9 5s.

People of all ages have different levels of beauty, and not in a sexual way.

Ever thought a kid was cute/adorable/whatever? And the kid next to them was not?

On the complete other end, many elderly are visually repulsive, but some look good right to the end.

There isn't just one reason. The biggest one currently can be directly tied back to porn. It's also not just the simple existence of porn, but with our excessive consumption of it.

The fact that nearly all porn is the same in this regard is also a factor. There's also a generational factor, in that younger people experienced almost-exclusively shaved partners and porn in their formative years.

That would probably result in teams that have the shortest players possible (to lower the rim), and 1 or 2 tall players to exploit that.

It's more like claiming to own a subreddit, or a Twitter hashtag.
