  1. I saw Newt Gingrich defending Walker for "being the way he is" due to concussions... Like... Newt... he's running for Senate and your argument in favor of him is that he has brain damage.
  2. Just make sure the monitor is HDR 1000 or higher and you should be good to go. The Micro LED ones from both ASUS and Samsung are the way to go.
  3. This explains why Tesla stock has been dumping so hard all week while other tech has been bouncing: Musk is likely liquidating more of his shares for cash.
  4. I really think all manufacturers should include a GPU support bracket for the 4090. I believe ASUS includes theirs. For the 3090 Ti, EVGA included their “e-leash”, which works as a “hanger” you attach to the top of your case and then attach to the GPU.
  5. Razer Core X Aluminum External GPU Enclosure (eGPU): Compatible with Windows & MacOS Thunderbolt 3 Laptops, NVIDIA /AMD PCIe Support, 650W PSU, Classic Black Sorry! Something went wrong! A.CO
  6. They disagree with actual numbers? Weird. RT, at “medium”, is providing playable fps in most games at 1080p with it… sooo… Resizeable BAR has been available for almost 4 years from Intel, and 6 years from AMD (400 series motherboards running a Ryzen 3000 series and up). If you’re running something older, sure, this card isn’t for you.
  7. I don’t think the 6600xt was the best card to pick as an alternative, btw.
  8. How does a 6600xt compete with a 3060 Ti with DLSS turned on?
  9. Price. The $329-350 A770 goes toe-to-toe with the $450-500 3060 Ti.
  10. No, he’s into M&Ms. He was very upset about the green one losing, to quote Carlson, “her sexy boots”.
  11. The focus was more on the main characters realization of the horror of war and that the US government has been lying about “Vietnam going well”. And it somehow keeps a semi-light tone through most of the movie while doing this.
  12. It’s essentially a war movie without being a “true” war movie. The real life events this one is based on are very interesting.
  13. Came out yesterday. Just watched it. Movie is actually fantastic.
  14. His podcast is filled with good faith discussion where he asks genuine questions, gets corrected, and is happy to be wrong and learn. Just like when he’d have high profile guests on TDS. 90% of the time he preempts statements with “I’m an idiot and have no idea what I’m talking about”. So, I definitely don’t get or agree with that assessment either. The times when he’s “smug” tends to be when he’s calling out senators on things like the PACT act.
  15. Strong disagree on the Stewart Maher comparisons. I cannot begin to fathom where that comparison is coming from outside of hyperbole from when Stewart suggested that maybe a coronavirus was mishandled at a coronavirus research lab in the province COVID-19 came from. I watch his new show and listen to his podcast; Stewart is still very much Stewart. He welcomes discussion and gets corrected by his guests and accepts it; Maher can’t handle being wrong, Maher thinks “the woke left” is as big of a threat as the extreme-right, and thinks COVID can be beaten by eating more vegetables. Stewart also calls “bullshit” when a guest says absolute nonsense, whereas Maher doesn’t engage or agrees half the time when he has these chodes on his show (Stewart basically told Andrew Sullivan to stfu on The Problem’s racism episode, and continuously called him out). In regards to Noah: his TDS, which I watched almost every episode of, was just mostly mediocre, IMO. I think Ronnie Chang is his best correspondent, by a lot… outside of Klepper when he goes to Trump rallies - Roy Wood and the rest tend to be one-note jokes, and I truly hope CC doesn’t feel obligated to use one of them as the new host. Trevor has his moments but, ultimately, the show just never even reached the lows of Stewart’s TDS, let alone the highs, IMO. Outside of Oliver, Seth Meyer’s show has by and far been the closest “replacement” for Jon’s TDS. I enjoyed Sam Bee’s show but it was much too infrequent and didn’t have the “focus and energy” that Oliver does on his once/week show (nor the amount of yearly episodes). I’d argue that CC’s best options, if they’re planning on continuing the TDS, is to find someone completely new, ask Sam Bee again (she was their first pick to replace Jon, but she said “hell no”, likely because she knew that it was a lose-lose to try and replace Stewart), or try Klepper as a host again (I think he prefers his on-site documentary style things, though; he said as much when he discontinued his own show).
  16. NO ONE DO THIS MAKE HIM WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO
  17. This makes me wish they did Stoors instead of Harfoots. They were the least hobbit-like of the hobbit ancestors and even wore fancy boots (the fancier the boot, the higher the social status) and were kinda dwarf-like. The nerd-rage of people who only watched the movies would have been amazing.
  18. FWIW, the WWII weapons some of these soldiers are being given aren’t AK-47s, as that was invented after WWII. If they’re legit being given WWII weapons like some have been saying, it’s probably SVT-40s and PPSh-41s… which is waaaaaay sadder than a rusted AK-47
  19. Oh, a youtube channel I watch was saying there's only two more, but I just looked and you're right, there should be 8 total.
