Politics XXXVI (will catch up to superbowls soon)
ComradeYellow replied to Amentep's topic in Way Off-Topic
Yeah keep telling yourself that. Crime, poverty, and inequality may just go away if you keep worshipping the number crunching market God. Like @Gorth I don't have the answers but I'm willing to bet that voting against these 2 parties that got us into this is probably the best place to start. Notice how every Democrat who runs as a progressive (medicare for all, better wages, higher learning etc) always ends up getting sucked into the corporate machinery of the party? It's just proof that Democrats on their own are not enough to improve things or successfully tackle the Republicans, they need a 3rd party to "fuse" with. -
Yes I'm still boggled as to why PC gamers would go AMD, when their hardware is being used on both next gen consoles. It just seems like a no-brainer from a consumerist perspective.

I'm just saying every system has its supporters. I'd say any extreme is bad, cap or com. Capcom? Well, we now know where they got that name from! Anyway, billionares should not exist and every job should be able to support a home to varying degrees. Nobody should have to kill themselves to live. -

The people who "fled" Castro are the ones who obviously don't support the Cuban system so of course you're gonna get a biased response. -

Number 2 of any trilogy should always be the black sheep. If 2 isn't the "weird" one than you're doing it wrong. -

Looks like Tara Reid and not Tara Reade xD (The former is hotter though, I will confess).

Like everything we're brainwashed/conditioned to hate it's usually only half bad. https://shershegoes.com/life-in-cuba-castro/ -

I checked his Twitter recently and he just strikes me as a slightly-more intelligent Trump, typical rich white Yank thinking the world revolves around him and his grandiose, and he's above moral considerations. His Cuba take was funny though, I wouldn't even know anything about him other than the "anti-virus guy" if not for that. -
Bah! And they say we Yankees have no sense of humor. ... This one's a little more in depth

Every single benchmark shows that Intel leads in gaming, but Ryzen leads in everything else. Sure, if you're a 60fps 4k gamer I suppose it doesn't mean too much but for people who like high refresh rates and smoothness -competitive or not-, it's significant, especially how next Gen Gpu's appear to be powerful enough to severely bottleneck CPU's. Amateurs talk about graphics settings whilst experts talk about resolution "sweet spots" and refresh rates (monitor specifications). I play in 165hz 1440p on a 27" monitor with 109 pixels per inch (which is near perfect for 1440p and basically meaningless on 4k) so Intel + Nvidia are my best options for wanting to clear 165 fps on decent graphics settings.

Perhaps, but it's still a massive title. Is the world coming to an end or what?

Civilization VI now free on EGS!

I'm just going by what he said, not me! I've never been there, so his word is more valuable than mine, whether you believe it or not. Also, xD -

I am now seriously considering firing up LOTRO again and party like it's 2010. I wonder if my Hobbit Hunter is still active, I remember leaving off trying to craft the best bow in the Guild. -
3080 Ti. When they say 50%-70% faster than 2080 Ti I'm assuming they mean with RTX enabled but it's still a significant upgrade.

Good News: Heat does surprising well, about the same as 9th Gen so that's significant considering the clock/thread boosts. i5, i7, and i9 all have Hyperthreading, can manually disable Hyperthreading on any individual Core. New Motherboard promises significant upgrades for future Gens, but that leads us to.... Bad News: Need a new motherboard , still doesn't beat AMD on heavy multi-threaded apps (but how many people need all that crap anyway?). Probably not worth upgrading if you're already sporting a solid 9th Gen chip, save your money, especially if all you do is game and browse. Still uses 14nm process, which, in a nutshell, basically means you better have an extremely high watt power supply if you plan on doing massive overclocking. Will wait for 11th Gen before I upgrade, should be some real solid improvements by that time. It's unlikely AMD will produce something that can top Intel's gaming dominance.

What happened to John McAfee? Last I knew he was on the run from the CIA and hiding in Cuba for tax evasion or whatever. Gave me a massive chuckle, he even got the opportunity demonstrate how well off Cubans are and that their are no homeless or unemployed in the country. Would definitely be my second choice were he on the ballot! -
Let's invade them, Eastern Front style. I got dibs on Xi-engrad!

Thing is though, viruses don't give a crap about your political views, or anything. I personally think it's a bit too early, and we're only doing it this early to avoid collapse, but if we can reopen and have the virus magically go away at the same time, hey, who wouldn't want that? I'm just not so keen to believe in miracles lately, it just reminds me of people who thought Trump would magically go away, and probably hope he'll still go away in 2020, likely will not happen.

Yeah, he totally sucks. There's too much at stake here so that's the final nail in the coffin.
