Other Geeky Stuff / Re: Mini PC - ROG NUC (2025) Intel Core Ultra 9 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti

For your usage, I don't think the CPU is going to be an issue at all. The GPU and cooling are what I'd focus on. Also check whether the RAM and storage are replaceable. That could make a difference over the next few years.

One thing I'd check carefully is the actual GPU power limit. Two RTX 5070 Ti GPUs can perform quite differently depending on how much power they're allowed to draw. The desktop and laptop versions aren't exactly interchangeable either.

Think about the relationship between YOU and Your-Boss.

He's not physically or mentally superior, maybe by a little, but Not-Much.

The only reason you "sort of" listen to him, is because he-is-the-boss.

We are born, then Indoctrinated, into systems of Authority, the German Model, to wash-the-unwashed-masses, so that they'd be easier to govern, ala-Education.

There is nothing special about teachers, or counselors, or principals. You Don't fundamentally have to listen to them.

We accept these things, because at the very top, they, the state, Holds the only true power of the land, MONOPOLY on VIOLENCE, be that violence Sat-Scores, Salary, economic, or Spankings (body, kinetic).

This is where the Bully's Prestige is more powerful than the bully actually is.

He can punch 1 guy, but NOT the whole playground. Civil society accepts the bully's existence, for that he is paid a slight extra for the stability and hierarchy he administers.

But again, if the Bully ever FORGETS that all he has is the "FASCADE" of "POWER". If the Bully ever punched more than a few String-Beans,

2-3 String-beans can easily Strangle and KILL THE BULLY.

If the whole School rebelled, they can also easily kill all the teachers/counselors/principal.

The Bully is just as fragile biologically as any other player on the playground.

Once you "LOSE" that prestige, Over-Test your fists, the playground sees, oh, that's all he has? The STATUS is lost. The Facade is Broken.

If the bully doesn't back-off now, well.. we know how this works and what comes after.

VIOLENCE is NEVER the ANSWER..

TRUE, ORDER, is a preferably acceptable deception..

g4m3r laptops are the only ones with remotely "decent" specs.

You pay at the minimum $1500 to experience gerrrbrrrreeeeiiiishhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.... **** at potato graphics 100fps or potato epic 50fps.

Sigh..

How do you constantly get the "public" to sign off and pay for "Wars."

Oh, it's the dumocrap's fault, no more wars, vote for me

Oh, it's the ****icants's fault, no more wars, vote for me

Meanwhile, as soon as they get into office, m0ar WAR !!

You're all stupid if you think dumocracy exists. It's a ****ty TV show.

By all means, vote, but the outcome will be exactly the same.

So right now, we go through the pony show again, oh no, it was all dmps fault, he's a bad bad man, vote for obamr backed elsaid, vote for memdini, vote for ao(.

Did you know, that obamr is a war criminal?

Did you know, he approved the largest assassination campaign ever in the mid eaz?

Did you know, drone war, that was obmr, war in syria, lybia ? Not in the news? whassupwitdat.

dumocraps are the fall guys for the ****icants

****icants are the fall guys for the dumpcraps.

As soon as the next guy comes in, you're going to have the exact same policies. Because the money structure is exactly the same as before.

The entirety of the "visible govrnment" is a Tv-show.
