They released the rest of the kill zone stuff for free

yeah, we still have a TV package but I havent had a TV in my office where I spend most of my awake off-time, there’s nothing worth watching anymore for me, just awful programming , news, sports, and PPV/Inferior on demand services.

I dont even use netflix anymore, I rage-quit after falling for that tyson paul bait and switch scam. the only “TV” I watch anymore is like streams of 15 year old adult cartoons like the Boondocks and South Park. and whatevers on my buddy’s Plex server. almost entirely old stuff more than 5 years old.

watching the news is just brain rot. you can get informed by 10 mins of scrolling current events on many different websites… if you feel the need to be informed.

Pirates and emperors

The emperor imprisons thr pirate and berates him for thr violent chaos he was perpetuating against his empire . Calling him a pirate and a terrorist

Thr pirate replies "you do the same things to your own people and foreigners. When I burn down a house you call it terrorism. When you do it. You call it thr cost of war.

My actions are vilified because I’m a pirate. Your actions are excused because you’re an emperor

… or something like that

fair nuff

You know I thought it was low effort cringe when I first heard “demacrips and rebloodpicans” in a body count song, but Im starting to like it more by the day

They are end of life now and have ceased production, but if you can manage to find a 5800X3D , that CPU is the definition of sleeper. I had a 5700X I think it was, and the performance boost was f***ing unreal, I expected meagre gains, I saw 20 to 50% performance increase on many games. if you’re into that kind of thing. if you see one for sale, seriously think about grabbing it.

its the whole reason aside from the OS issue, Im not even remotely worried about the next few years, it can compete with the high end stuff of the AM5 generation still. unreal.

might have been a deal. some retailers are dumb and think lower number means worse, so discount justified. lol

Realistically the AM4 is still more than enough for now. but its technically end of life. the AM5 isn’t worth the jump until theres no other option.

the thought process probably revolves around “No, we’ll just put the teenagers looking for their first jobs to work. and if that fails. Uh. Elon Robots!”

I’d have an easier time laughing at his sad state if I wasn’t already mad that the guy is objectively a traitor and a goon of Vladimir Putin.

Not in construction, but I dont think I’ve ever seen a friend who ran their own business and did this, ever succeeded in the long run. taking payments under the table I mean. or paying staff for that matter. its a sign that someone is bush league.

Its just gonna be a question of how unsecure Win10 gets , and how fast.

My pc is from 2019, although I’ve upgraded the hardware several times. But I’ve basically reached a ceiling of practicality, its no longer practical to upgrade anything. Im on an outdated chipset (AM4) and jumping from a 3080 to a 4080 isn’t really going to fix the problem of games just being unoptimized. It makes more sense to build a new PC than it does to just change OS on this.

but right now, it just doesnt make sense to build a new PC either… I dont lift a finger on anything unless im going to be able to see at minimum 20% performance increase, I just dont see that without emptying my savings account…

I have about 7-9 months to decide what to do with my PC. I don’t want to move to windows 11. Because I will have to basically fresh-install my entire system that has 4 drives and god knows how many antiquated programs on it from the XP, Vista and 7 era that I still use. and Im just not ready for it. Im too busy

headache

the boomers are going to cling on to power until their dying breath, and on the way out, they’ll usher in some kind of apocalypse, either nuclear war, or we all get eaten by self replicating elonbots.
