| So you don't have banks? Or you have banks but nobody knows why they bother because nobody ever goes in? Because if they're building banks that nobody ever enters, then maybe there's more sinister going on. |

The Ryzen for heating thing is real. From the link:
Every processor heats. What matters is the Thermal Design Power, and Ryzen Pro is producing the same heat as the equivalent Intel CPUs we were using while providing twice as many cores. A good fit for our customers that use core count to evaluate their computing needs. |

I fucking hate their business model, selling ppl paint jobs, ship spoilers and other useless crap... What would you prefer? Pay 2 win instead?
Yeah, that's Star Citizen. I'm happy with Elite--even if I haven't played in awhile. But I'm really sorry I ever invested in Star Citizen. Luckily, I didn't go crazy and spend over $100 like a lot of people, but the fact that you can buy your way into any ship you want is ridiculous. Don't even care if they ever release it at this point. |

I backed this, and have completely stopped even keeping up with what they're doing. It seems now they're basically just remaking UO, and the way they're selling houses and castles and all other kinds of shit makes Chris Roberts go "DAAAAAMN!"
Same here. Stopped reading the updates. I tried playing the demo and it was absolute crap |

I really wish they had skipped this and just jumped into the overdue Volta. I've been sitting on my 3gb GTX580 forever, waiting for a card capable of 4k@60 max settings. This won't be it still. Where the fuck is Volta? >=(
Really? Wow that is a long wait. I have to say I run 4K 60fps on most games with a 1080gtx. Max settings is such a minor difference I would drop that requirement. I run a samsung 48" quantum dot HDR TV as my monitor and it is jaw dropping based on color and resolution alone. Lower some settings to get 60fps is not a big deal. IMO this 1080Ti is an amazing upgrade at that price, buy 2017 samsung HDR tv and you will never look back.
I'd say just turn anti-aliasing off. You don't need to smooth out "the jaggies" at that resolution. |

| Let's see if Zen and Vega are all they're promising. I'm waiting until after they're released before I make my next upgrade. |

| I was out walking my dog on the trail behind my house and I ran into this guy walking his dog. Started talking. He's a developer who works at CIG here in Austin. Says he's working on Star Citizen. I just smiled and said I was familiar with the company. What do you say when you meet a stranger who owes you money? |

| The PS4 Pro is running Skyrim SE more slowly because it's rendering at 4K. At that resolution, you can pretty much just turn off anti-aliasing. That ought to speed things up. |

| You probably read about the previous Titan X. This is the NEW Titan X. I'm sure it's going to confuse a lot of people, and some of them will end up buying the older card and then realize later that they made a horrible mistake. |

| With regard to Thief, I don't get the complaints. Who cares? The game is not about sex. Brothels and opium sound like they fit just fine in this world. There would probably be plenty of both. What would be weird is if they weren't there. Just because there's people having sex in the game doesn't mean you have to pause the game and go twist one off. You can just keep playing. |

That's... quite the divorce settlement.
Well, she also got a number of other games, an XBox, a big-screen TV, lots of movies, everything of value from the kitchen, some furniture, and about $80,000. Every time anyone asks me if I have x, I always reply, "I used to have x..." |

| I loved this game. Played it all the way through and would definitely play it again. Unfortunately, my ex-wife took it in the divorce. I'll be getting it on PC for sure. Highly recommended. |

| Well, I've lost more money in Vegas--and the potential win here is far greater than for any bet I've made there. I have so many fond memories of Elite as a child that I feel I already owe the guy money anyway. |
