There is some truth to this. I went for 4k gaming on my RTX 2070 and eventually ran into titles not performing at a level I’d like for the native resolution my monitor supported. Great monitor all around but last year instead of fighting for anything in the 30 series, I “downgraded” my monitor to a 1440p for a 27" IPS

Did you mean the touch sensitive keys to punch in a pin # to unlock the door without the key fob or app?

Yeah really hope they get it sorted out. People paid a lot of money for those GTs...

As an owner of a Mach E AWD premium extended range, I’m disappointed the GT is seeing such a power drop off. My wife absolutely loves the Mach E and it is our daily driver and her daily commuter so it serves its purpose nicely and I can keep my thirsty heavy truck for truck duty or very long haul trips.

Holy. Shit. I had no idea about any of this. What a rabbit hole I just went down and spent 2 solid hours distracted from work.

I’m quite certain the FAA is going to nail his ass to the wall. They will have likely already reached the same conclusions as you and now its down to painting an exact trail of evidence. He might even catch criminal charges for this level of stupidity.

Aww damn I forgot all about Joe Isuzu. Classic!

I’m still kind of mad about it! Sure, its a term used in multiple scientific communities but as a reference to a rare or non-existing material. It isn’t supposed to be a literal name for anything. Ugh.

I remember first time I walked up to the C5 and was blown away it could possibly get off the ground. It is just an immense bird! But then I got inside and just giggled with glee.

Over the years, my wife and I have greatly reduced what we buy for the holidays. This year we expect just one or two items for each of us and for our teenage son. Like you, we feel like we have everything and way too much of it at that.

He’s been taking available programming courses for a few years now through school. They revolve around a form of Basic or similar with easy to use IDEs and he far surpassed me in mathematics and is chasing me hard on overall science so I’m pretty proud of him.

We play Minecraft as a family pretty frequently and have a ton of fun doing that as just LAN only worlds.

Quick follow up to my prior comment. I was aware of some of Roblox’s exploitative practices but I was not well informed of the depth or depravity. Thank you for showing me this video.

Not even kidding that I wish it was completely dead for good. My son has dumped so much time into it. I commented above on the fact his grades are awesome but since it’s been down it was like he remembered all these other fun things he used to do so I had a good talk with him about seriously peeling back from Roblox

I am elated that their servers are down! I saw my son come up for air for the first time in months! (kinda /s)

Normally I would say zero but Microsoft owns them now so maybe MS will force their hand in some fashion and we end up with something in horrid shape? I sure hope not but we’ll know by mid 2022 if it seems likely to make the launch window or not.

So I was going to do my own big write up and refer to my time with SW:G and this is the first game I’ve played ever since those days that feels a certain, unique way. This isn’t a carbon copy MMO of WoW and it is bloody refreshing compared to so many others.

Agreed and at this point, far more cost effective to find your own junkyard ride and mad max it out in your own fashion. But the mad engines they came up with is so much fun.

I had the immense displeasure of driving a ‘17 WRX with the CVT and it was...fucking awful. I’ve had a couple Maximas from Nissan that had better CVT response and generally better feel (Still awful CVTs in there too) but I feel bad for anybody that ends up with a WRX and a CVT.

oh pssh. Fun haters, the lot of you!
