Steve from Gamers Nexus has a solid video where he met with people about Valve and goes into a lot of details on the announced hardware. He reported that they told him that the Steam Machine is not aiming for a console price. This made sense to him as he pointed out it’s basically an ITX computer and you can do computer things with it. Anyway I don’t know what it will cost but I’m guessing north of $500 easily.

Might want to check your units.

I charge Amelia Vanderhorst with being a legend.

I’m just noticing that the media doesn’t have to use the passive voice about criminal allegations when it decides not to.

Why in the world would you abbreviate veterinarian in an article talking about someone killed by military forces? It’s so shameful as it implies he is a veteran / fighter.

Yes I know why it was a rhetorical question. Smh

First CPU I recall was a 286 and my dad had set up some games in there to play including my favorite - Moonbugs. Unfortunately, the game timing was apparently coded to the CPU speed rather than the clock because when we upgraded to a 386 the game would run and end with GAME OVER in less than a second.

I had been excited about the new, faster computer until that discovery, lol.

Well TIL, thanks for educating me.

Though it occurs to me that she was speaking with an American accent though so I’m not sure of saying she should pronounce it the British way.

I’ve played it for about 6 hours and so far it’s kind of meh. I’ll admit I’ve not made it to the full in deep desert with PVP and so forth so my opinion still might change. But the early game is kind of slow for my tastes and the script writing / story is just senseless video game tripe.

Also a side note is that so far the voice acting for the story stuff is pretty bad overall. My favorite so far was when you’re exploring a shipwreck and find a voice log from the crash and the speaker identifies herself as Ensign whoever. But she mispronounces ensign as “en-sine” which made me do this:

Totally agree. I only got it to play with friends who are into it but was hoping it would be good. The story / cutscenes are so incredibly cheesy to me. It’s almost a parody but the joke never quite lands.

New Headline: Kamala Harris Doesn’t Know Difference Between Army & Marines.

Serious answer: could be drugs/alcohol but he looks like he could be older and dementia is a possibility.

It’s always the ones you’d most suspect.

Subaru

Had a previous car that was manual. Then I bought a car with a CVT (continuously variable transmission) and it’s such a nuisance because it is always unpredictable when it will shift. So you go to pass someone, step on the gas and sometimes it takes off and other times it fiddles with shifting for a second before giving you any power. Can also be a real pain in stop and go traffic because it will have unpredictable amounts of power when starting from a stop. I’ve had this vehicle since 2017 and it’s always been this way. I don’t miss having to shift constantly but I do miss having a reliable amount of power when I’m in a certain gear - that’s what is so nice about a manual transmission. You feel more in control of the car. That said, my daily driver now is electric with no transmission and that is the best of all.

MSNBC Recap of the situation.

Basically Musk attacked Trump on Twitter over the big bill. It’s been escalating rapidly with Musk insinuating Trump should be impeached and threatening to start a “centrist” political party and Trump threatening Elon’s government contracts.

Maybe. Or the propaganda will have been so successful that nobody will discuss climate change because that’s just the way things are.

I don’t think I can emphasize enough how strong my disinterest is for wearing a camera and microphone openly recording my life for some megacorp to package/resell/abuse/leak.

They’ve always got some clever excuse don’t they?

100% agree. Also I feel like this misses the point of what is actually happening right now. Trump could be gone tomorrow and the fascists all around him would still be there. If they magically impeached and removed Trump today, does anyone really think Vance, Mike Johnson, and the SCOTUS would all suddenly become well behaved and pro-democracy?

Trump is a symptom of a much bigger sickness.

I think the other user may be mixing up events in their head. I haven’t seen anything about Proton’s donations but the Proton CEO has publicly made statements that suggested he might be pro-Trump.

Here is a really in depth analysis of his comments that concludes he may not actually be pro-MAGA.
