I got a presidential message on my phone a few minutes ago. Startled me. Anyhow, I didn't read the message. Don't care.

Way to twist that fantasy series to fit your political narrative! Yeah!

Have you read the books?

It most definitely was female driven - so much so that 3 books were the most boring days of our lives type drama I had ever read

Gee, I wonder why nobody wants to work with Chevy...

"I'm really angry that SNL won't let me host."
"SNL is such garbage, only morons watch that, it's terrible, nowhere near as good as when I was on it, why does anyone pay attention?"
"So I asked Lorne to let me back on SNL, and he said no, that guy sucks!"

Seriously, he varies between I really want to be on it and it's terrible and should be canceled, back and forth, nonstop.

Then he whines that no one wants to make a Chevy Chase picture anymore. First off, no one really wants to make a picture with anyone that calls it a "picture" anymore, but he's 74. What 74 year old gets starring roles? Donald Glover was right, he needs to step back and be willing to be a character actor. Even Bill Murray made that transition, and remains in impossibly high demand, but recognizes that he'll remain beloved in small roles rather than large ones.

Although Cres was being rhetorical, I'm glad you explained since i didn't know the story.

Why the hell are they concerned with Steam, when you can just type porn in google and you immediately get hardcore porn.

@Beamer and HoSpanky,

I know I'll be attacked like a sheep among a pack of wild wolves but...what the hell...

The arguments, "there's much worse" and "there's way more" aren't really the best ways to justify making porn accessible via Steam are they?

The way I look at it, Gabe Newell is already a billionaire. How much more money does he need? You want to get into the porn business now also?

I guess Steam is no longer just a PC gaming service. If it's expanding beyond that it's a little sad to me. If they start offering porn games it'll eventually be porn movies as well. Do we really need another porn service on the Internet? Like there aren't enough already.

Been over a decade since I built a PC. I take it from the comments the pre-applied cooling paste is more than sufficient?

Eh, depending on if you want to overclock or not. If you're planning to OC by 20%, you'll want to put some Arctic Silver on there. If you're just gonna run stock, then the regular paste is fine (For the Ryzen processors, they actually put some decent stuff on there. Don't trust anything Intel gives you. Intel deliberately puts birdshit TIM in their processors to save themselves 10 cents per die, so trusting their thermal paste seems risky.)

If this law is signed by the Governor, what would it do? Among other things, it would prevent Californian consumers from buying many free-data plans. These plans allow consumers to stream video, music, and the like exempt from any data limits. They have proven enormously popular in the marketplace, especially among lower-income Americans. But nanny-state California legislators apparently want to ban their constituents from having this choice.

It's a good thing no corporation has ever used it's market dominance in one industry to muscle out competition in another. I mean otherwise one might think they're creating arbitrary data caps and then offering exemptions to specific services so they can control the streaming industry as well as the service provider industry. But that's never happened, so no need to worry.
