    Yep, you’re right. After a quick search, it looks like the American Revolution started in 1765, and the French Revolution started in 1789.

    However, I know French policies and political development had a profound impact on the ideas central to liberal democracies, as it could also be said of American policies and political development.



  • Oh hey, hay čxʷ q̓ə for the reply! That’s good to know what the equivalent quality is. I juuuust discovered a good, high quality instant coffee that is decent. It’s called Davidoff. Pricey at anywhere from $15 - $20(!) CAD for 100g.

    I’m trying to avoid Nestle products on principle, and I find the Tim Horton’s original blend way too high acidity/bitterness but it’s okay in a pinch.

    I’ll take a look at more of the big box stores you mentioned.



  • “Text message”? What are we - barbarians?

    Seriously though, using text messages these days means that inevitably you will encounter the green vs blue issue. Android and Apple phones don’t play nice with their text messages. Gods help you if you ever get into a group text message thread with multiple Android and Apple phones. Anytime an Apple user reacts to a message it’s sent as a separate text message, “John 🤣 to ‘Check out this meme’”

    At least with WhatsApp it puts everyone in the same texting playground.



  • It’s looking good to me! As @blueday@lemmy.world said, double check the clearences with the video card between the case, motherboard, and RAM. Try searching for reviews of the motherboard you’re looking at, ctrl + F and look for “clearence” or some other related word and see if there are any complaints.

    Good idea going for a video card with more RAM.

    Since I switched to AMD, I’ve been a big fan of the Ryzen chips. You get more cores at good speeds and competitive pricing versus Intel’s chip. I’m also into supporting competition and voting with my wallet where and when I can. The extra cores will help with video editing, encoding, etc. But, ymmv between Intel and AMD.

    My limited understanding with RAM is that after a certain point you are measuring speeds and clocks that will only give you marginal improvements (a difference in a handful of half seconds and seconds between different kits). I would suggest getting the most DDR5 RAM you can afford right now and don’t really sweat it too much.
