It is the judgment of this Court that once an individual, having secured the office of the presidency by whatever means, including fraud, subterfuge, or concealment, has been duly sworn into said office, the legitimacy of their tenure is thereby affirmed. The Constitution, as interpreted herein, offers no mechanism for undoing the oath once administered, regardless of the integrity of the path taken to reach it.

Once sworn, always sworn. No take-backs.

---- SCOTUS, probably

IDK if I trust it to be done well in texas, or florida….

But if it wasn’t an adversarial, and respected privacy, I would really appreciate an impartial third party letting me know I have a missing roof tile, or a fire-hazard on my property.

I got lucky a few years ago. A neighbor alerted me to a broken sprinkler. Instead of a $200 water bill, it would have been much worse.

I just have fears of the insurance company banking some photo evidence, letting me keep paying them, and then 2 years later refuse to pay a claim and dust off pictures of a risk they knew of but didn’t bother to tell me about. Like we’ve know about this fire risk for years so now that you had a fire we’re not paying up.

Really hoping he's still alive and can get asylum in Canada for himself and his family and tell his story.

Cry and sob hysterically at every occasion, especially when confronted by government clerks.

Glass blocks UVA pretty well but not UVB.

The tinting I have on my windows produces a very noticeable difference as to how much the window sill heats up. Without blocking too much visible light.

Have you added a UV filter to your glass? They can significantly limit how much the sun heats up your house.

That can't be good for the environment...

That's the weasel word that lets the right know exactly what he means but still able to pretend like it isn't what he means.

Just stop testing and it will go away......

I undervolted my 5800X3D and 9800X3D and that helped with temps a lot.

I never undervolted my GPU, I generally go the other way with it. My 4080 lost the silicon lottery, couldn't get any more out of it. Not sure if I won it with my 5080 because a lot of people seem to be having large gains, but I got my boost clock to to a little over 3 GHz and a +1GHz to the memory.

So I have a reason to sell my 4080 to my friend at the discount friend price. They got a 4080 for $700 and I got a 5080 for ~$700.

Newegg has gotten some 5080 stock around 4:30 PST the past few days. They're only in stock for a few minutes so mash F5 and buy whatever is in stock and figure out the rest after checkout. Most are bundled with a PSU, but the ones I've seen aren't crap PSUs they're trying to get rid of like the 40 launch. https://www.nowinstock.net/computers/videocards/nvidia/rtx5080/full_history/

I manage to get a 5080 at launch with a bundled PSU, then sold the PSU and my old 4080.
