Why not go for the regular 980. Over here it's cheaper than the 970 evo.

I think the series finale is going to be That came out so wrong, but I'm going to leave it.- The TV and Streaming Thread: Pilot Week
I do dislike those cliffhanger endings, but that's the direction they chose to take with each season so can't fault them too much there.- Anime and Manga - I respect the first human to have eaten a mushroom

Yeah, I really want to pull the trigger too. But I just can justify it to myself, as I would not use it. I'll probably just update the graphics on my existing rig.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."

@majestic I thought you were going to say- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
@Zoraptor What bothers me is the "Either you are with us or against us" mentality.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
Yeah... While we are on the subject of forum etiquette I hope you can see how you continuously pick and chose what to answer. When you can't defend your point of view, you focus on something minor and move the goal post. Tbh, it makes you look like a brainwashed US activist.- The All Things Political Topic - A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year.

That's what I'm wondering too. I don't see the rest of the members pressuring Turkey to do anything.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
But it's obvious that it's the reality of the current world order. Just as the US, as the current leader of the world, doesn't allow things to go against its interests, be it to it allies or enemies (in my example Cuba) and on a global level, so do Russia and China enforce that (or try to) in their own back yard. It's just that you picked a carriage to hitch your horse to and are not willing to be objective. And I don't know why, it's not like you would hurt the cause of the West by being objective.- What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
Can you change the doors?- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
Because your question had an already known and obvious answer which you chose to play ignorant about. But ok, I will humor you. The provocation would be the Ukrainian intention to join NATO (and as such military presence of NATO on a large part of its border) and continuous bombing of the Russian inhabited parts of Ukraine.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
True. The things the US has done in Africa are by far the worse crimes committed in recent history (Vietnam trailing close behind). First of all Kosovo doesn't really want independence, it wants to join Albania. Independence is just a way to get there. Why should we relinquish territory that is historically ours and for which there is no reason or precedence to do so, especially when doing so would open questions for other territory claims. They (the albaninans) have committed a mass exodus of Serbian people from Kosovo and Metohia and before the west intervention behaved like terrorist to the Serb population there. As for Republika Srpska, the official stance of Serbia is to support the Dayton agreement, in fact Croatia is more outspoken today about their claimed territory in Bosnia. Don't know why you are singling Russia and China here when it goes against what you said and those numbers seem overinflated to me to the point of insanity. Again I'm lost as to how you think that applies to anything I have said. You are under the impression that I'm somehow trying to say that one thing is ok, because it happened somewhere else. That is not the case, I'm just pointing out the double standards that a lot of people here have regarding the whole conflict. Also let me straight up say that I am not overly concerned with Ukrainians or Russian and Palestine or Israel. As you have said, there are so many conflicts around the world and so many people oppressed that claiming concern for any/all of them is dishonest to say the least.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
It's really not, I'm just drawing parallels. When the US felt it was threatened it reacted very strongly and was ready for a WW3. @Elerond I am really not sure what you wanted to say with that.- What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
That is the worst possible bug that can happen in a game... Sucks...- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
Let me ask you what was the provocation during the Cuban missile crisis.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
Palestine not wanting to be a part of the Israel state is also not provocation. Having oil is also not provocation. Wanting to sell oil in non US currency is not provocation. Being a non aligned state is also not provocation.- What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
Not prying at all. It's 23 bucks for the net. 5gb/1gb is 52 dollars and 10gb/1gb is 61 dollars. The biggest packet they offer is 10gb net TV with 190+ channels (missing the whole discovery family) and phone for 64 dollars. But this is a small provider so they are very aggressive with their offers. A normal big IPS that costs 36 dollars for 1gb/200mb, their biggest pack is for 91 dollars and you get 1gb/200mb net, unlimited mobile (net and calls) and 3gb international mobile net, unlimited land line and over 250 tv channels, plus some paid apps. edit: what I payed for before is 31 dollars for tv 200+ channels and 120mb/15mb net (via coax).- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
You could say that Russia also responded very, very harshly to a provocation.- What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
Yep. They offer 50% off for that second year if I upgrade. I can still cancel it in the first 14 days and I could also cancel it on the grounds of false advertising. We will see.
