‘We’re here, we’re queer and we’re coming for your children’ – Democratic party Activists

No secret that the Democratic party has been coming for America’s innocent children for decades. With help from the National Education Association (NEA) and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), the Democratic party has been indoctrinating young students from kindergarten thru high school.

Need proof?

• 1) Math and reading scores for 13-year-olds lowest in a decade, report finds
• 2) Explaining That Steep Drop in Math Scores on NAEP

Math & Reading scores have been dropping for decades, as public schools focused on politically indoctrinating innocent students rather than teaching them actual skills for their futures.

The Democratic party doesn’t care about children, minorities, or women—it only cares about gaining voters, or more chattel for its cause.

In recent years, the Democratic party has OPENLY moved to groom innocent children for sexual purposes, and to also gain more control over them as adults in the future.

ASUS Prime Z790M-PLUS D4 mATX MoBo – BIOS & Drivers

Since 2005/2006 I have purchased $60-$90 motherboards for my builds, but decided to ‘splurge’ on the ASUS Prime Z790M-PLUS D4 mATX MoBo – $171.89 + $12.03 Tax = $183.92.

Requirements were – Micro ATX, Intel Z790, LGA 1700, and 1Gb LAN motherboard. Have moved away from the big ATX & small ITX boards, and prefer the mATX boards and cases now—fact is, I was going to be removing (intact) an older board from my favorite case, a APEVIA X-QPACK3 mATX case, and building a new Intel® Core™ i9-13900K system in it.

I didn’t find a huge mATX selection, and PCPartPicker only had TWO listed, and I went w/ the ASUS Prime Z790M-PLUS D4.

Finished up new Build yesterday ‘n have it setup in my primary desktop spot – posting this from it right now. 👌👍🙌😁

Here are: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4.

‘Before’ as in the intact MoBo I moved out of the Apevia X-Qpack3 case, and ‘After’ as in this new Build inside it now. I name most of my computers after the cases I use to build them, and I’ll update the new components in ‘Apevia’ soon.

Here is a closer look at the new benchmark results – from UserBenchmark:

Builds & Upgrades — Part 4 (“Delivered Today” – *NOT*!)

OK, ‘Thangs have slowed to a crawl – fortunately I am in no rush ‘n just keep spending more money whilst I wait. 😁👍 However, instead of four Parts there will be a Part 5: here are the links to Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.

Let’s get started…

‘Delivered Today‘

I knew that “$50 drop in the price of an Intel® Core™ i9-13900K CPU” mentioned in Part 3 looked unusual for the 2nd ‘Fastest average effective speed CPU‘ right now:
