    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    It's the GPU companies who are addicted to chip shortage/Crypto pricing. They just think that is what we will pay now. They saw the scalping and want some of that jack for themselves. They are just MSRPing the scalping price. eh, I wouldn't compare the CPUs to the GPUs. The GPUs can't...

    Tulsa King

    I binged everything edit: [up to Ep 8]tonight, and I really liked it. It is kinda like Get Shorty, I guess, but I haven't seen that in 20 years so its more of a feeling than anything. Not completely serious more of the time but has that Elmore Leonard sense of fun evident in that and Justified...

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

    I think the only two achievements I didn't get for DX: HR was the Pacifist and Don't Trigger Any Alarms. I stealthed some stuff but after a while it was "Huey Lewis and the News has a Certain Hypnotic Effect" time.

    He did say "possibly" which renders the statement unfalsifiable. It's wrong though. Let's go to the judges. Judges say:

    House of the Dragon

    I think Kit's the only thing close to a sure watch that HBO has. Jon Snow and his sister Sansa may be the only viable characters to emerge from GOT watchable.

    Nevergrind Online - 5-player Multiplayer Co-op Dungeon Crawl RPG on Steam

    Its 2022 and some people don't think others should have nice things or benefit from the fruit of their labor but I love it; Congrats! Hopefully this is a safe space where you don't get any heat for advertising it. I haven't played it in years since before things had to be changed to De-EQ it...

    Ashes of Creation

    That's not my understanding of how development works. They build pipelines and then will reuse those for other assets. It goes a lot faster as it gets closer. The Unreal Engine conversion probably took a lot of time, which is why we aren't seeing as much upfront but the design of things is...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I really need to start playing this again. I reached the end of the Endwalker story and just kind of lost the thread.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    This is why I bought my 3080 when they hit $600+. I think I am going to sit this gen out completely; nothing I have now makes my want to spend $1000+ on a video card.

    So I took my daughter to see this today as she asked and was really excited to see it, big new movie, not in 3d because fuck that. I couldn't tell if it was HFR. We went to IPIC, which is an awesome dinner theater chain if you have one in your town. In my opinion, it looked good/great, I...

    Thanks! I was agreeing with your one movie a year and realized I have barely been in 2022 at all. Listening to a TwitterFiles4 Spaces so sorry if it is more discombobulated than usual. :)

    I honestly can't remember; when was Tenet? something something...Spiderman: No Way Home. I didn't make the effort for Maverick. Fake Edit. Oh shit, I probably went in Jan 2022. Has it been almost a year since I have been to a theater? Holy Ducksauce Woke Hollywood sucks ass. Fake Edit 2: I...

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    Well, we know the character is initially named "Voller" in 1969. We don't know if that's his true identity or if that's the only character he will play in the movie.

    Europa Universalis IV

    "effectively" is a new game is like "we have EU4 at home". I've already played this and learned it a few times; I'm done. Hopefully I'll be successful in not bitching about it here. Edit: My tiresome was not with your post but with Paradox. I wish that I was able to approach it in this way...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023)

    We have had the opportunity to see what happens when a Franchise tries to ride what they think is the wave ("Woke, "female", "Modern audiences") and really what is happening is the tide is going out. After the crescendo that was Endgame, it would be hard for anyone to keep the music going but...

    Europa Universalis IV

    Then it will be a new game and I won't feel so chagrined at having to learn all new game mechanics for the same 12 year old game. Same thing for Stellaris but I am not so attached to Stellaris: Once I put it down I haven't tried to pick it back up. Do they revamp that game as well every...

    Europa Universalis IV

    I regularly bitch about this but allow myself to introduce myself. I started playing EU4 after a long time playing EU3 in 2010? and had like 1000? hours first year. I don't recognize a single term other than CoT in your whole post. I keep buying expansions but can't stick with a game long...

    Microcenter isn't a shop per se but more like a smaller Frys/Best Buy chain. They charge more to incorporate non-Microcenter parts but they have some weird gaps in their selection, like no Arctic AIO coolers and sometimes not the best prices; although they will pricematch now anyone online...

    This gets my goat. As Soldier Boy said so eloquently, "Fuck those kids". No one makes these people take these jobs. They aren't kids; these are young adults building their skills and their networks. I learned to build PCs while I was going to college and beating people up for a living running...

    I immediately checked everything when I got it home; build quality was top notch. Guy wasn't unskilled, just super lazy. If it took any mental effort, he just didn't want to do it. I think part of the trouble was lots of the people who go in there don't challenge them and I challenged their...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    I have been building PCs since 1994 and this time I took what I had bought to Microcenter, bought the MB, CPU, and case there and let them build it. $250 bucks and if you don't get a lazy as fuck tech like I did, it works out great. Even though I wasn't happy with the guy's ability to follow...

    Foler vs. Mudcrush Durtfeet: Curse you ratfuckers for making me choose between these two before the final. Bubbles vs. RobXIII- Nothing against Rob but this is a preemptive vote to forestall an attempt to STEAL THIS FROM FOLER. HE'S EARNED IT; LET HIM HAVE IT. FUCK HIS FAKE CAMPAIGNING.

    What's going to be weird is for the longest time I effectively had two PCs with only one video card, and when the new AMD card comes out and if I am able to buy one, I will have two video cards now with only one PC to put it in. Now I need to look at if I can build a small quiet Mini ITX...
