They have the XPS 15 with discrete graphics. Yeah, I don’t see the appeal of a 4K screen on this one, but I haven’t used a 4K XPS 13 before.

2. Reducing overall gun deaths and reducing the lethality and frequency of mass shootings are two different issues. A mass shooter is far less deadly armed with a shot gun or pistol than he is an AR15 with a 30 round magazine.

Two things (and read the whole comment rather than getting some idea in your head after the first one):

Uh, no irony. In fact, that is exactly what most anti-socialists want. They prefer the free market to decide, not the government. I see no irony here.

This won’t do any good. Assault-style rifles (and rifles all together) account for so few gun deaths that this action is moot. If you want real action start looking at pistols...

Two comments:

Sony’s A9 and A7R3 are absolute monsters for sure, but they really don’t save that much weight or space. Yes the bodies are smaller than their Canikon competition, but then the lenses are no smaller or lighter, and in some cases actually bigger than the the equivalent Canikon options out there. (E.g. the 24-70 2.8 -…

I jumped from a Sony A99 to an A7Rii when they were first released. Of course I loved the A7Rii’s tech and could not believe how good the photos were. But, upon holding the A99 again, I felt with my own hands what is lost in ergonomics. There was a certain feeling of all parts of my hand having firm contact with the…

We have been warned about this:

No, they aren't all alike. Cheadle is fucking better.

the fact that their current president is the son of a previous dictator

What? Agree to disagree then.

Doesn’t look like a Japanese woman all that much either

I think it’s great they hired a white actress to play a fictional Japanese character who is drawn to look like a white woman.

I am not really bothered too much by whitewashing. I know I should be but so long as the role is being played well, I generally don’t care as a viewer (even though I know it’s wrong).

Perhaps this is a clear indication that it’s simply not possible to hire a proportionate number of women into these positions. Could it be that women simply aren’t interested in these fields at the same levels as men are?

Perhaps your future UHD Blu-Ray player has the upscaler of interest. Take care your 4K AV receiver does not diminish the results.

This is why I am waiting for all three components to be reviewed as a coherent system: UHD display, UHD Blu-Ray, Atmos audio receiver. The system’s unified remote control is also important.

That doesn’t say, nor does it imply, that I think people shouldn’t get an education. It says, quite plainly, that the institution of Higher Education is a scam. In fact, I’m a proponent for increasing training of skilled labor trades. Mike Rowe sums up my position better than I could ever articulate.
