For me its a matter off:
Untill they offer the content to me in a proper way (not through some cable company 6 months after airing in the US), I will keep on pirating. Once Game of Thrones start running again I will start paying for HBO Nordic, and this apply to every other TV producer. If you offer it to me in good high definition quality, right after airing in the US, I will pay you money to
I pirate mainly because of lacking availability in my country, or just way to long wait periods before it shows up on TV. Im willing to pay for TV shows if they can deliver it as reliably and fast as torrents, im willing to pay well.
The number who are part of the church and the number who belive in god is this way because of tradition. Alot of people are part of the state church, because they got automatically enrolled when they got baptised. Alot of non-religious people baptise their children because of tradition, not belief. Also the number who say they are christian is inflated because of these same traditions. They arent

All organized power structures can become toxic. Again, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot had absolute power in societies where religion was forbidden. I'd say their horrors were as bad as anything done in the name of religion. Not that the Inquisition was a barrel of laughs.
The examples you state isnt situations where the lack of religion caused horrors, its the political leaders. If

Without digging in to your particular components, here are some general recommendations:
1. Don't splurge on CPU or video card. The bang for your buck generally isn't there. You want the sweet spot in the curve just before the price starts to spike at the high end.
2. Stick to Intel. The popular option (in a software context) gets better testing, better support, an
For the computer case I recommend Fractal Design Define R4, it's great with a sleek(simple nice design, not the flashy teenager gaming case) nice design. It has good cooling with slots for extra fans and is sound dampened.
I would personally chose the Nvidia GPU, their drivers is generally better than the ATI ones in my experience. The Nvidia 600 series is a great lineup of cards. However
Before they moved I was getting 140 ms response times, now its in the 180-200 and it flucuate alot more because of the increased number of "jumps".
140 ment I could get abilities "in before the round", now I have to contantly play 1 round behind the US players, or spam one round ahead. This means your ability to plan and react to situations is terribly hampered.

Any system that promote pure advancement ahead of monetary gain. I dont know how a system like this would work, and its most likely not possible in todays society.
It may not seem feastable today, since capitalism is so ingrained into every aspect of our lives. But eventually capitalism (atleast how we know it today) is going to be a thing only read about in history books. We, as a race, evolve all the time so it would not make any lick of sense that capitalism will stay in its position as the dominant form of economic management forever.
Its not as if c
They should lower their profit per bottle, and instead sell alot more. In the end they would have the same amount of money in the bank, but the medicine would benefit many more people.
Its well within possibility of the modern society to provide abundant medicine of any kind to every person on earth, but as a result prices would plummet. Fuck the pharmaceutical companies. Its completly stupid medicine (even the newest types) isnt freely available everywhere and to everyone.
At some point we will be able to create stuff by taking atoms appart and reassembling them differently. We could for example take garbage appart and reassemble it. We should eventually even be able to create something from nothing, just by adding energy. But to do this the energy requirement is staggering beyond any concievable possibility with todays tech.
On a general basis I refuse to state
Lets say we suddenly got access to replication techonology and unlimited energy. Every material need would be met just by walking over to the wall and asking for it, which would render production and sales completly useless. The value of products would plummet and become essentially free. How would our society react if we suddenly eliminated the need for money in relation to material needs?
On one of my invokers I teleported randomly around looking for people, then suddenly landed ontop of the pyramid. There was a necro there praying and emoting for his lich quest. He promptly slept me, spelled me up and then "sacrificed" me.
For the necro it could not have been luckier.
Sat down with thatever lengths or containers he had close by, then decided "This is an inch.", "This is a yard." etc. With no thought of making it fit together.
Code Geass (Beat the big empire with a cool superpower and lots of strategy)
Death Note (Psychological thriller deal)
Black Lagoon (Old fashioned action, japanese businessman turned pirate in the thailand gulf)
One Piece (Never ending with over 500 episodes, but alot of really good fights and likeable characters. Takes a while to get used to the art style though.)
