  1. I don't think the net is a problem as much as constant access to it, smartphones. You don't need to know things anymore since they're a quick google away, not that you necessarily find the correct information or such ofcourse, The Algorithm will find you results that you want rather than what you need afterall. Having to learn how to find information, process and understanding it isn't as important as it was in the beginning of the milennia. Ofcourse, having twitter and facebook always be there to constantly reinforce your bubble as soon as it's protective membrane starts to dissolve aswell.
  2. What it says on the tin, it's quite fun hearing the designer of some of the past decades most awesome looking cars(Ford Escort RS Cosworth, Ferrari F430, Maserati Quattroporte, Maserati GranTurismo, McLaren MP4-12C, McLaren P1 to name a few) talk about the design of Cyberpunks vehicles!
  3. It's nice to be european for once
  4. Well, they could've stayed virgins, likely not gotten infected, AND recieved a wizard certificate when they hit 30!
  5. Yeah, Fallout, Syndicate and Shadowrun. There are probably more that I'm not remembering ontop of my head, I try to not memorize it all lest I become depressed.
  6. Heh, I know my dad supported helping african countries out because he didn't want "them" here... =P Well, it was particularly egregious considering that HIV was/is a huge problem in SA, and I was much more socially active back then since I was unemployed and had way too much time. I was sent to a youth centre to hide unemployment figures help them with their staffing problem together with some of my friends. There were alot of people there that was very much in favour of "alternatives" to science, and I was a member of the Swedish Skeptics' Association so I read alot of journals and listened to a bunch of podcasts where I read and heard her statements.
  7. Those are kickstarters though, and not AAA. Well, maybe not XCOM, but the others were, and as much as I like Fallout New Vegas, I'd rather the franchise rest in peace and not have F3, F4 and F76. And then theres Syndicate, the 2007 Shadowrun.
  8. I'll be honest, I hope not. I'm done with AAA "animate dead" of my old favourite games.
  9. Thank you, and the same to you! It's not impossible, though I can't find any statistics here. My doctor was unconcerned enough to actually meet me without full NBC protection this time though, so there's that! That said, I've always been "weak" when it comes to colds, they hang on forever it seems and my father is the same. Bad enough that my father used to have the nickname "Snöret"/"Snotty"(Much catchier in english than in Swedish, but much more accurate in Swedish since the same word means rope, and we're both lanky ****s ) which lead to me growing up as "Lil' Snotty" once I met some of them. That said, I've never really had a proper knockout flu. I took my test on monday morning, so I got it somewhat quicker than expected considering that wednesday was a holiday, they expected up to 7 days. I've not been really bad during the past two weeks, just a very runny nose, coughing and sneezing, no fever or such, but sitting still this much has been really bad for my general health and I had a temporary swelling of my right foot which, again, scared the **** outta me.
  10. Garlic mate. Garlic against HIV. And beetroot. From your former minister of health. So, rare? Heh, not really.
  11. My covid test came back negative, I've just been having a long drawn out cold.
  12. Granted it was a 3080 I ordered, but I literally had to wait ninety-two days. September 17 to December 18.
  13. You got it in two days?!
  14. "Dev morale is on an all time down and Sony is roasting our asses due to the gigantic volume of refund requests." Also, I'm still amazed that noone remembers Skyrim performance on consoles at release.
  15. Main reason why I will never buy a modern vehicle. I don't even have bluetooth connectivity to my stereo
  16. Once/If modders can get animation files for npcs to work on V, it'd be alot better yeah.
  17. It's Lovecraftesque
  18. Sourced from 4chan, so bear that in mind. It reads as a mishmash of fan favorite theories that's been around for the past month. They mean to tell me that they not only did they rewrite the entire game two years ago to give Silverhand the central role, that'd then mean they had to rerecord most other VA lines aswell, I just don't buy it.
  19. Sounds nice, though because of how things work here, I've somewhat limited options unless I want to privately import. And then we're talking about 1200$+cost of whatever the price of the bottle; Would your wife recommend any of these three? https://www.systembolaget.se/sok/?textQuery=shochu
  20. I'm sort of that way myself, but only if it was a really amazing movie, or more typical in my case, game. I still haven't replayed Witcher 3 because I've got it almost all memorized. Then again, if you were to ask me to say, take out the trash I'll forget it 15 seconds after you said it. Drinking some hot chocolate. With Cointreau. It. Is. AMAZING!!!
  21. I made a scan on all the "dancers" at the afterlife and chuckled a little. I don't know if it's intentional or a bug, but they all have male names.
  22. I wholeheartedly agree after doing a bit of research.
  23. I don't know about the 3070, but the 3080 TUF OC has a bit beefier power delivery from what I know, while the non OC version follows nvidias reference spec, and it has about 50Mhz higher advertised boost clock, possibly better binning (Which'll not be an issue unless you plan to OC). So I think that since you don't plan to OC you'll get good enough performance from the normal version, I reckon you'll get reasonably similar performance. If the 3070 boosts to 1800Mhz and the OC boosts to 1900Mhz, it's a 5% increase. The STRIX cards generally have better binning, slightly better cooling, more power delivery, more bling. It's their top tier cards generally, mostly for overclockers, out of the box you don't get a noticeable advantage. That said, ASUS stopped delivering 3080 TUF non-oc for a while and focused on only the OC models, so they might've done something similar to the 3070s. Edit; The ASUS 3080 TUF OC that I have, I've temporarily lowered the power limit by 15% since I'm CPU bound, and I generally sit at ~1900 boost while playing Cyberpunk, and that's about 100Mhz more than what I've been promised, and pretty much what the 3080 Strix is guaranteed to deliver.
  24. I'm really damn impressed with the voice actress of female V. She's really, really good at expressing emotions in a believable way.
