Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming βWow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

A computer generated pile of cash. At least our governments would never just make up money like thatβ¦
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Our governments, unless you live in a banana republic where the government just prints money, don't make up money like that. Our central banks do it, but usually indirectly. It's actually our banks that create money when they originate loans. Every currency unit on deposit generates, say, 10 to 20 currency units in loans. It's a question of how leveraged they dare to be. It used to be Swiss law that the principals of a bank were liable, to the full extent of their personal wealth, if the bank went under. Today, banks have little risk. They'll get bailed out by the central bank. And in the last decade, most countries have made it legal for banks to keep your money if they become insolvent and need to be recapitalized. Once your deposit your money, you're an unsecured creditor of the bank.
For many years now, banks have been furiously creating money to buy government bonds, which finance deficit spending. In fact, primary dealers (the term used in the US, but equivalents exist elsewhere) must bid at government bond auctions. It's quid pro quo: if we give you a license to run a top-tier bank, you must buy our debt. This ties in with quantitative easing, where the central bank then buys the government bonds from the primary dealers, who get cash in return, propping up their balance sheets. In the US, the central bank (Fed) isn't allowed to buy government bonds directly. But this intermediate step, of primary dealers buying the bonds and flipping them to the Fed, makes it non-banana republic finance. The whole process was elegantly captured in a cartoon of a bull elephant blowing itself, along the lines of an ouroboros. A magical perpetual motion machine.

For months I've been having trouble starting my 10 - 12 year old PC. It goes through the POST test nicely, displays the Windows logo, then shuts down. That sounds like a video system problem to me, so I updated my video card to something a little more current. When I opened the system, I saw for the first time the true resolution of my monitor, and it was lovely. Then I opened Microsoft Solitaire! LOL!!!!
It tries (and fails) to work with the full screen, but the poor cards just can't keep up with the cursor! BTW, there are 618 levels that I know about... Further exploration shows that other functions are having problems, as well. Scrolling web pages is erratic now, since the upgrade. I suspect that the older spec PCiE bus can't keep up with the demands of modern video cards. It appears that I've finally worn out this 2010 - 2012 PC that was state-of-the-art back then. They just don't make them like they used to...
Back then I dealt with TigerDirect and Newegg. Are they still good sources, or are there newbies I should know about?
<edit> Re: the title, when I tried Solitaire with the new configuration, my first thought was of Lucy, in the Christmas movie, telling Charlie Brown, "You killed it, you blockhead!!!!"
Will Rogers never met me.
