    Telling someone they’re an alien for not being interested in you is very definitely rude. Sure, you put effort into your appearance, you have pride in your looks. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s when you take that rejection out on someone else that it becomes a problem. Here, it’s a mild issue, almost certainly intended to be a fourth wall wink at the readers more than anything else, but at the end of the day, she called clark an alien because he turned her advances down.

    It’s very much a metaphorical comment for her; normal men, according to her worldview, obviously check out womans titties every chance they get. She’s being incredibly rude and arrogant. “If he’s not checking me out, he very obviously has serious mental health problems, or is just straight up not human.” The arrogant half is the expectation that even if a normal man had the capability to ignore some other woman’s titties, no normal man would ever be able to ignore hers.

    She would likely consider gay men to be an aberration too.






  • Im sorry, but, for things like games, raid isn’t really going to give you a perceivable speed increase. Most games today get the most use from the random read, where raid does best is with things like sequencial writes (large movies, etc).

    Raid0 will add to your throughput, but your seek times will still be the same regardless of how many drives you add to it.

    Here in the us, a 2tb ssd is less than 50$. Im sorry its not the same where you are at.

    I know the others suggest raid0, but since youre doing three drives im gonna suggest raid 5 instead. You don’t lose out on read performance compared to raid0, just write speeds. More importantly, one drive failing wont actually break anything.








  • So for example if you plan on walking into the mountains until people assume you’re dead and then leave, the right people will see and you’ll catch back on.

    Only if you do something dumb like stick around in the same spot of wilderness for months on end. The whole point of disappearing is that you go to a new place and start a new life.

    Made worse because we have progressed so far into forensics and many countries are using that to monitor peoples’ whereabouts.

    Yes, but actually no. Just because they have the data doesn’t mean they’re actually using it. A government motivated to find you will be a huge problem to deal with. What exactly have you done to cause the government to want you specifically?

    Soon there will be no running away from anything you want to run back to and no pretending to run.

    Paranoid fearmongering. Breaking the law bad enough (regardless of how moral of a law it is) will absolutely get the government on your back, but just assuming that the law will turn into hellish big brother with motivated tracking is putting the cart before the horse. Yes, it’s entirely possible that the current trajectory we have will get worse / follow a downward trend into 1984 style bullshit. Obviously that’s why you prepare for that. But it does not mean it will follow a downward trend into 1984 territory, and assuming that it’s impossible to stop that from happening means you’ve given up, and are therefore a part of the problem.

    It’s why witness protection only works when it’s government-sponsored.

    Citation needed.


  • Oh, youre thinking about the actual death bit. There’s a couple of ways to do it easier then holding your breath and hoping the coroner doesn’t notice during the autopsy.

    Head to a place that’s known to be semi-dangerous for whatever reason (a beachfront hotel, mountains, etc). Inform people of your vacation plans, and then dissappear the same way that other people who probably died did. If you’re really didcated, go to bear country, leave food out for a bear, and then dump some pre-drawn blood of yours around when a bear shows up and then disappear. Switch countries and never look back. This is a dick move, but if pretending death is the best solution you can find it should work well enough.

    If you’re just trying to run away, it’s actually relatively easy. Sell/trash everything, buy an old car, drive across country, and start completely over without ever telling anyone where you went. Don’t even sign into your old online accounts. As far as everyone but the government is concerned, you’ll have disappeared. If you’re leaving an abusive family behind or avoiding the mafia, this is plenty, and you don’t have to worry about being deported. Spend a few years as a waiter or construction worker being paid under the table and as long as you keep that up, you’re even invisible from the less proactive parts of the government.

    I’ll be honest, faking my death seems dramatic and way too complicated for any situation i can come up with. I’d just do the disappear thing and leave it at that.
