    Wheel of Time

    I thought the trailer was shit, "look, our show has magic !" type of bad. The only trailer that would have been worth two shits is if they did the first chapter (or prologue ?), right after the breaking of the world.

    The Astronomy Thread

    I'm not really up to date with fusion and fission, but isn't fusion not that effective ? I remember reading somewhere that the inner core of the sun, where the pressure and temperature is high enough for the fusion to take place, only produce something like 300 w per cubic meter. Or we are using...

    I think only people 30+ are staying inside. most of my little cousins are outside all the time drinking, playing music, etc. I have no fear for them.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    What if - hear me out - we build up a huge wall that would retain water and when needed it could feed a generator to create electricity ? Dam, that would be nice.

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    as much as I loved D2, I think it will stay a fond memory and I will not play this, except if the reviews are stellar (so I'm not taking much risk here). I bought D2 a week before going on vacation with my parents so I took with me the manual and read it over and over again. Loved that shit.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The money they made with Wow was (is?) tremdendous; however, the ROI on Candy Crush must be insane. You can't blame Bobby to go after where the dough is.

    It's an awesome tool as a private pilote for landing on foreign airports. You get a real feeling of the place, can do the circuit as they are on the charts.

    The Astronomy Thread

    If anything, 15'000 years of "modern" humanity can give us a clue : moon will belongs to the ones who claim it and has the capacity of defending its claim. And I'm pretty sure there's a flag there already !

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I thought about it too - the goal was maybe to remove the "artists" who thought they were irreplaceable, that without them wow would be trash. Or they want to bring the price of the IP down so some company belonging to the circle jerks of activision can buy it cheap and create a WoW 2 (outside...

    The company parties I witnessed had always the same scenes going on. Hot girls turboflirting with men of power, regardless of marriage on both side. Toilet quick fucks. Dudes oogling hot girls. Girls giggling at joe from IT who is rumored to have a massive schlong. Sexual inuendos everywhere...

    Black Widow (2020)

    Went yesterday to see this, overall forgetable but not terrible. 6/10 is ok. I liked that it was a standalone movie, with a story from a to z. My main reproach would be the big vilain was pretty pointless. He has all this control, for what ? No ideology or whatsoever. Red Guardian was underused...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Less incentive for horde players to move somewhere else since the last gameplay blocker that comes from the population of the opposite faction was removed. There are no good solutions to remove player imbalance except making more appealing race / racial talents etc.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    That's mostly what I meant. Once a guy shows it's possible to do something and to be profitable, other will follow. But as BP pointed out, the choke point of this whole mess is the chips. Weird to have such monopoly on a crucial component used everywhere in 2021.

    A bit of an overstatement maybe, but here in Switzerland, he's in the top 2 car seller of 2020, before the VW golf, and only 2nd after the skoda. in 2017 there was no Tesla on the chart. Let me rephrase then : he jolted the car industry in some countries, and nobody predicted it. Even now, when...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I thought about that, but then I remember that elon musk fucked the complete car industry just because he was an outsider. I'm sure there a ton of small company producing small chips for things we don't even know exist, that could be bought and extended. Of course they won't compete with the...

    Low supply, high demand, high price ; I'm no clever business man, but if that's not 3 green flags for companies to create their GPU I don't know what they are waiting. It would be refreshing to have a 3rd competitors.

    I've been using my Dell Precision since 2008 and it's still kicking ass. I changed the HDDs to SSD as soon as I could, added 8gb of ram and it's still going strong. The new precision I have at work is also doing good. Of course since they are workstation, they have virtually 0 minutes of...

    Question for people who knows shit: why is there such a shortage of cards, and general electronic parts ? I mean, it can't be silicon, that shit is literraly everywhere. It can't be the wafer process, we've been doing this for over 30 years. is it the 5nm technology ? is it pure marketing stuff ?
