Rumors continue that Nvidia is, at best, pausing production on the lower end 16GB cards There's additional rumors out there that even at the 8GB level, it'll just be 5060TIs soon. (Again, Nvidia doesn't make their own chips, if component costs go through the roof, there's only so much they...

Coop's kid aging out will be a problem, like in all TV shows. Hell, when she answered the door earlier this season, there was some weird artifacting that had me wonder if they didn't digitally alter her height. It'll be even worse if they go earlier in the timeline to cover New Plague material...

DSN Season 1 isn't as bad as TNG Season 1, but I still wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Hell, I'd probably have them skip to the last episode of Season 2 (introducing the Jem'Hadar) for that matter. Not to be _that_ guy, but I'd absolutely recommend the early seasons of Babylon 5 (which would...

All male and female (Lily, Tabitha) super mutants canonically look the same, unless there's some Fallout 76 hell I'm unaware of.

Eh, all roads continue to lead to The Enclave as the past and future antagonist (with maybe a one season fakeout with West Tek) . This being 21st century Hollywood, I am sure The Enclave was pissed that the Sino-American War didn't kill all the undesirables (minorities / gays / etc.) and decided...

I would say the expansion is fine, but still needs a lot of polish. Beyond all the issues Pharone had, I would add: The voice acting is super inconsistent, in some cases only voicing some of the text. Even worse, its not always the beginning text that was voiced, so you'll start reading...

Even if Aaron doesn't _start_ somewhere, I would expect him to play when someone's QB goes down midseason. As for next weekend" Broncos over Bills - Per usual, I expect this to be a squeaker until the 4th quarter, when the Broncos take the lead against the gassed Bills defense. Seahawks over...

Texans' turnovers are the #1 source of Steelers' offense.

Another defensive game? Let's see if the Steelers can top the high bar (3 points) the Chargers set.

It bears repeating that Ali is over 50 now, and would have been nearly 50 even if the movie came out at the earliest possibility. It's hard to believe they ever intended Ali to be the lead long term. Hell, if we want hard ages, if you go back to Blade 1, Whistler (Kristofferson) was around 61...

Every coach has an end-of-year meeting with their GM / ownership (depending on whom they report to). I'm very conflicted on firing LeFleur. First off, the kicker, the position the HC has the least impact with, wasted 7 points on a game GB lost by 4. That said, the timing is also messy - LeFleur...

Feels like Chargers have to score here to have any chance to stay in this.

Yeah, if that was the Chargers' big chance, they threw it away.

Ugh, the Bears host a Stafford with an injured throwing hand? Eugghh.

Oof, I picked the Bears, figuring the Packers defense would run out of gas in the second half, but man, I did not expect this game to be that identical to the last time. Edit: Flights costs aren't that bad, honestly.

Packers D is gassed and the Packers offense couldn't adapt to the Bears' defensive adjustments. This sounds very familiar.

Bears only need two scores, and the Packers are playing prevent offense. And there's a massive return.

Nice start, but I'm not gloating until this game is over - the Packers had a lead in the last matchup, and look how that turned out.

2 turnovers and the Rams only lead by 3 points. The Panthers are actually going to win this thing, aren't they? (Honestly, the 49ers / Eagles game is pretty up in the air too, be rather shocking if the NFC West repeats the NFC North from last season and take 3 slots and then lose embarrassingly.)

Should be some good games this weekend, especially compared to how most wildcard rounds go. I'll go Rams, Bears, 49ers, Jaguars, Patriots, Texans.

Yeah, I assumed the Deathclaw did not kill Coop because he was an American trooper, no reason to expect that immunity to persist. And yes, it is difficult to see how the Vault 31-33 stuff can possibly tie into the Vegas stuff this season. (Even a cartoonish plotline where Hank has a deadman's...

It's the same question as the Packers - is it better / harder to be consistently good but rarely great, regardless of the roster / cap situation you're handed, or to fluctuate wildly between terrible and great? My gut says being consistently good is harder to do, but we also don't reward...

I can hardly say KK being minimized is a bad thing, but 'The future of Star Wars is Ahsoka!' doesn't thrill me. Neg me if you like, but I'd rather have more Starfighters than more Ahsokas.

If you view Fallout's "satire" flag as permission for Hollywood Leftists to build the most nonsensical version of capitalism trumping basic logic, it's not bad, though even this TV budget leads to a lot of tell don't show moments. As a canonical entry in the Fallout universe that is...

On one hand, in the 13 seasons since they won the Super Bowl, they've made it out of the divisional round once, and didn't even make the playoffs nearly half the time. On the other hand, mutually beneficial splits (a la Eagles / Reid) virtually never happen. Maybe the Ravens think they can...

Since their bye (Week 9), the Eagles have scored more than 21 points twice: against the awful #1 draft pick Raiders, and the deeply mediocre #7 draft pick Commanders. Since Week 9, the 49ers have scored less than 22 points only twice - they only scored 20 points against the Panthers, and when...

NFL doesn't actually have brackets, it is strictly seed based. If this weekend #3 Jax, #2 NE, and #5 Hou win (my picks), #1 Den gets the lowest seed remaining (#5 Hou) in the divisional round next weekend. I wrote that line for a reason, unless Stefanski went over Berry's head to get Deshaun...

Note that that number of wins vs quality opponents resulted in Carroll getting canned - https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47513676/raiders-fire-pete-carroll-one-season-gm-john-spytek-remains That said, I'll reiterate that if there ever was a year for a high seed to sneak into the Super Bowl...

God himself apparently demands the 9-8+ Superbowl playoff loss.

Hey, one NFC North team is getting a playoff win this year! (Sadly, it's probably the Bears with how beaten up the Packers are.) Honestly, the Raiders winning as soon as it was 'safe' for them to do so looks more suspicious than them losing out. Eagles / 49ers and Jaguars / Bills the games to...

Winner gets the first seed - a week of rest, and home field advantage in the NFC West meatgrinder are pretty important.

The NFC South winner vs an NFC West wildcard is going to be the Sat Afternoon game for how lopsided its going to be. Edit: Reminder for those not watching the game that if the Falcons win, the Panthers still win the division (2 way tiebreaker rules are different than 3 way rules).

Well yes, all the existing capacity is already accounted for. (And then some, the core issue being that AI orders will account for another 40% of what was already effectively maxed capacity.) The (terrifying?) thing being that none of the big three manufacturers have decided that demand at 140%...

Tons of chatter that AMD and Nvidia are raising prices on their cards to counteract rising RAM costs. (Reminder that neither AMD nor Nvidia make their own chips nowadays.) Possibly as early as start of business Monday, but definitely during their product lineup press releases during CES next...

I think you meant That said, with Villenueve, Nolan, Lord & Miller, and even weird stuff like Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) ⭐ 6.3 | Animation, Action, Adventure, I have a hard time thinking this year will be a complete bust. Plus with Spider-Man and Avengers: There Goes All Our...

Ah, now that could work, as you said the audience hasn't been introduced to designed bioweapons (vs mutated creatures). Hell, let's go full cheese - Coop meets Barb soon afterward (who's just a mid-level Vault-Tec grunt) who says "Vault-Tec doesn't deal with monsters", the invalidation of that...

Well yeah, the set decorators / costumers are the MVPs of this show, from the basically 1:1 vaults from last season to everything this season (including the virtually 1:1 hotels we still haven't seen outside of previews). That said, while the Securitron / Power Armors looked great, they sure as...

The franchise financials seem pretty murky at this point. To be clear: A4 and A5 have not been fully greenlit yet. The kids did their performance capture for pre-time jump A4 years ago, and while Disney had scheduled A4 and A5 even pre-Covid, A4 has not actually gone into full production...

So the Chargers will likely be the AFC 7h seed, have to go to NE in the WC, then even if they win have to come back to Denver anyway? Not sure that plan makes much sense unless Herbert needs the rest. So Texans will presumably be 5 seed and get to beat up on whomever wins the AFC North? Maybe...

I'm gonna be pretty pissed if that failed Bills 2-point attempt blocks us from GB-Chi III.
