  • Why do you simultaneously need analog video AND performance equal to a modern GPU? All of the old games in analog won’t demand modern GPU power.

    If you had an open pcie slot (hell, even PCI might work) why not just throw in a second antique GPU with analog - which would run in parallel with your existing modern card.



  • It’s not like Americans will get to vote again. The current system is done for.

    Ah yes, the same type of alarmist rhetoric the dems were pushing during the campaign. If the stakes were really this high, why did democrats sit on their asses for 4 years while Trump gained power? Why was their legal battle against Trump the most limp-dicked effort we’ve seen? Most importantly, why did Biden peacefully transfer power to Trump if the stakes were truly so high? This is one of the funniest liberal thought processes to me: the idea that it’s better to sacrifice your constitution, country, and democratic process instead of sacrificing “civility”, “decorum”, and “precedent”. Yall would rather embrace fascism with open arms than use the most basic tools at your disposal: stacking courts, appointing judges, using executive orders, etc… you know, all the strategies Republicans have mastered these past few years and have shown are extremely effective.

    At the end of the day, the Democratic party’s selling point was “harm reduction”, but that was generous at best. It has become clear that the democrats simply slowed down the rate at which things were getting worse, and when the position of the party becomes “slow down genocide” as opposed to “stop genocide”, I think it’s perfectly fair for people to draw a red line. The only logical conclusion to this line of thinking is reaching a point, 20 years from now, when the choice is between a Democrat who wants 9 genocides and a republican who wants 10.

    How do you think fascism arose in Germany? Was it a complex process set forth by the treaty of Versailles, embarrassment after WWI, rapid technological advancement by Germany, instability from the great depression, instability in the Weimar republic, etc…

    Or do you really think fascism just comes out of the aether when somehow millions of voters become “stupid” all of a sudden?



  • Ukraine captured and publicly interviewed a pair of them.

    Which, as the article states, Ukraine has kept from being interviewed by anyone other than the Ukrainian Presidential Press service.

    I don’t see any evidence of DPRK soldiers from the grainy videos you’ve posted. For months now, we’ve been getting 1080p Ukrainian drone footage of hits on Russians with such clarity that you can make out the soldiers’ stubble. Why did this clarity suddenly disappear when Ukrainian and South Korean Intelligence started pushing the idea that DPRK soldiers were actively fighting?
