Wrapped up with Control. Again I got the bug where I couldn't upgrade all my weapons even though I did all the quests, ie. missing one endless potential. Not that it matters as I am not fussed about finding all the secrets, just the interesting ones. Probably going to play Alan Wake 2 next, but I kind of don't want to have epic store...

I thought I experienced the worst a dentist can offer, but removing a tooth is a new low. The snapping sound of tooth and bone is going to stick with me...

No more delays to sanctions for NIS, our national refinery and oil/gas supplier. As of next week we are on reserves as Croatia will stop the transit of crude oil through their county. So either Gasprom (Russian company which owns majority) agrees to sell or it will have to nationalized. If it's nationalized, good bye to Russian cheap gas and a bad message for any foreign investments.

From what I saw you can force it, but yeah. Doesn't seem to bring much to the table apart from Intel Arc.

Looking in to flashing a modded bios with rebar enabled. Is it worth the hassle?

Yeah, I dropped RT to medium and gained almost 60 fps. I was kind of hoping to go all out in the game, but I guess it's too much. That being said I don't notice much difference between medium and ultra. What I need to do is move to a new platform, even with the 6950x the system is showing it age. But on the other hand I don't want to spend 2k euros. In other news, I managed to break 2 usb ports on my MB, by snagging the cables. Not once, not two times, by three times. You know what they say, third time's the charm... Good thing I have 10 more.

The slot for the LAN card is forcing my GPU's PCIe slot to be x8, so now my GPU backplate is an additional cooler for my LAN as I had to move it one slot down which means there is a millimeter of space between the LAN card heatsink and the GPU backplate... I need to get another cooler for my CPU and free up the first PCIe slot... edit: no improvements in fps from it though, Control on 1440p Ultra with RT (ultra) is giving me around 60fps on x8 and x16. I have PCIe 3.0.

Card is in and I have to say that youtube is working much better. I can actually fast forward 4k videos now.

This is all good. In five years they go bust and all their IPs end up at auction. No guarantee that everyone who acquires the IP will do something with it, but the odds are there.

Calling all generals and admirals back to the us for a secret meeting... Fun times ahead... Don't know how smart it is to put all those people in one spot.

That's what I keep hearing and considering it's the anorexic version of the cooler it will probably be the first thing I do. Edit: do you use 3rd party software for this (afterburner) or via powershell?

Not a game changer, but better in some ways. You get more of everything and some clarity and you do need a high quality source. Switched from Spotify to Tidal. Pulled the trigger. Order the Zotac Solid SFF OC 5070 Ti. Would have gotten the Asus Prime variant but it's not available and Palit, which is cheaper than Zotac, seems to have issues with fan bearings causing noise. The only negative with Zotac is that it's a 2 slot card, so probably less cooling performance. Will see how my old Seasonic 660w gold PSU handles it. Should be fine...I hope.

I need to try Wartales again.

Haunted Hotel on Netflix. Warm recommend from me. Surprisingly fun watch.

Huh, mean place to leave the season finale of Dandadan...

I watched a season and change of Yellowstone and the story was getting so ridiculous I looked up the rest. I just noped out.

The last episode of Alien Earth is going to be a banger. I am very interested to see how they will leave it.

Please don't mention the tournament, it still hurts... So embarrassing...

Just download it.

Was never there to begin with. He was living tax free in Monaco and now he is moving to Greece. But yeah he supports the protests and the rumor is that the current goverment is returning the favor in some capacity. But it's just rumors, Djokovic denies it.

New chapter of Berserk is out. Will Guts ascend or descend?

This war is close to home and with someone who can hurt them. Different ball game.

Another round of protests in France. Starting to turn violent, as they usually do in France.

Seem to be unarmed drones used to overwhelm air defenses. I don't think europe is crazy enough to escalate to an all out war, at least not at this point in time.
