Literally all they have to do is beat nvidia by one GB of VRAM on any card and people will go nuts. Nvidia is so afraid of making another 1080ti that even their 4090 gets like 2 less frames in Fortnite at 1080p.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, my retirement plan is dying in the potable water riots

What many democracies around the world are missing is greater recallability in offices. Citizens need to be able to easily oust people nonviolently.

"This'll be fine hardly anybody lives out here"

Materialistic is absolutely how I feel when an object is sold for multiple years of my income.

PBS is actually better than ever and I prefer it over most of what gets shoved in my face on my PC.

Performing work to the specification of compensation while respecting my free time. Astounding that doing my job is somehow analogous to quitting if I'm not providing even more unpaid benefit to my employer by one or more metrics.

Meanwhile Gaben said he fell in love with New Zealand while he was stranded there during the pandemic. Shame he couldn't confuse the two.

That's something I couldn't quite put my finger on. The movie isn't overtly meta but it has a meta feeling about it. Like at times you can begin to profile the "players" of these characters.

It's infuriating to me that only Steam and EA's stores have gifting built in. Most of my games budget goes to buying small-squad multiplayer games like Deep Rock Galactic and Sea of Thieves for people.

Sure you can buy a key anywhere but I love seeing at a glance that an acquaintance has a particular DLC or game to surprise them rather than asking them first. And then there's a small chance they thank you for the key and pass it on to someone else instead of just telling you they don't like game, while Steam has a handy decline button.

Odd to me why he was vaguely supportive in his first speech regarding the UAW strikes when he crushed the rail workers without so much as the barest amount of hand wringing.
