People seem to really dislike Destiny 2. Why haven't they ended it yet?
  • I used to hang out and chill on Titan whenever I was bored. Suddenly Bungie removed pretty much every content I ever purchased for the game including the god damn moon Titan. All the campaigns for base game and three DLCs I paid for were just gone. To add insult to injury they level capped the pinnacle gun I got from doing a PVP mission. Clearly Bungie doesn't give a shit about money and time I spent on the game so I bailed. I uninstalled the game and moved on four years ago.

  • Trudeau says Ukraine can strike deep into Russia with NATO arms, Putin hints at war
  • Here is a video explaining the current situation regarding US and NATO greenlighting the use of long range weapons.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3cgxeFNdqI

    The point of allowing Ukraine to use these weapons isn't for Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory. It is to deter Russia setting up logistics just across Ukraine and Russian border because they feel safe. This forces Russia to move their logistics centers further inward stretching out the line. Another reason mention in the video is to strike the bridge in the Kerch strait connecting Crimea and Russia.

    NATO could have made this decision in secret and allow Ukrane to launch a surprise attack deep into Russia but that's not what's happening. It seems like everyone including PM of Canada is essentially broadcasting this new potential capability instead of keeping it a secret because NATO wants it to be a form of deterrent. This is why this is relatively safe move and will not escalate into anything bigger like a full on nuclear war.

  • Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris
  • Her statement was impeccable. She mentioned the AI generated fake image which appeared three weeks ago. This is the response that had to be made by her. She signed it Childless Cat Lady. Perfect.

  • Donald Trump Falsely Claims Taylor Swift’s Endorsement with Garbage AI-Generated Posts
  • This is strategically dumbest move he can make. Taylor Swift has been relatively quite for a while now regarding politics and now either she or her publicist is basically forced to respond to this. My best guess is Trump is trying to stir the pot to get any kind of attention but this isn't it.

  • Motherboards and systems with China's Loongson CPUs now shipping to US customers — options start from $373 for a DTX board with processor and cooler
  • This Chinese CPU and mobo is not meant to compete against Intel or AMD based system. This 4 core CPU is probably comparable to 2019 Intel or AMD CPU at best. This CPU meant for two markets, domestic Chinese consumers and Chinese government. The west sees China as emerging threat so they've been blocking lot of chip manufacturing tech and high end GPUs used for AI. The Chinese government wants to be less dependent on western technology and build their own domestic CPU. Also Chinese government may be paranoid about Intel IME and AMD ST spying on them so this CPU would alleviate that worry. Clearly it's not meant to be sold in mass to western consumers. If I had to guess actual competitive price of this CPU and mobo combo is around $150 at the most.

  • Motherboards and systems with China's Loongson CPUs now shipping to US customers — options start from $373 for a DTX board with processor and cooler
  • This is not a good deal. First of all I highly doubt this mobo and CPU will be Windows 11 compatible so you're out of luck there. For $373 you can find an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and mobo combo deal that will vastly outperform this Chinese CPU. Also AMD's AM5 platform is DDR5 while this Chinese CPU and mobo combo is DDR4. $373 is a ridiculously non competitive price.

  • Streaming is cable now | Seventeen years after Netflix and Hulu kicked off a streaming revolution, it’s looking more like cable than ever.
  • With the current state of streaming services mess, I think I would have signed up for disc rental by mail. Access to nearly 100% of media at highest quality for around 10 to 15 bucks a month seems like pretty good deal right about now. Sadly Netflix killed that part of their business so I can't even go back to that.

  • Humane AI Pin review: not even close
  • Five to ten seconds wait for a voice command kills any chance for this being a viable product. If they can't bring down the response turnaround time to two or three seconds, this product is dead on arrival. It's not worth discussing anything else until they can do that.

  • Republicans baffled by Katie Britt’s State of the Union response: ‘One of our biggest disasters’
  • There is something extremely creepy about her tone of voice and body language. One second it feels like she is trying to convince you that she is genuine but she tries too hard which immediately make you think she is faking it. All of a sudden she sounds angry in a very serious way which makes me think she is a psychopath and she about to stab me in the neck with an ice pick. My immediate instinctive reaction is to stop the video. Last time I was this creeped out was watching Anthony Hopkins' performance in Silence of the Lamb. Of course that was just really good acting of a fictional character and this is a real life person which makes it even more disturbing.

  • SpaceX May Be Withholding Satellite Internet in Taiwan, Congressman Contends
  • US military is definitely aware of this obvious problem and they're probably in a planning stage of building out their own low earth orbit constellation of satellites that they fully control for military use. If I had to guess they'll contract with Blue Origin to build out this architecture. Elon is shown to be a security liability at this point with alleged drug use and conflict of interest with countries deemed adversarial to US.

  • Donald Trump's past comments about 'Mein Kampf' resurface
  • I think Trump can wear a giant swastika necklace much like Flavor Flav and get on stage praising Hitler today and his numbers won't change. His MAGA crowd will likely like him even more if he did that. Discussing whether if Trump read Hitler's writings or not seems kinda pointless right now.

  • Live stream of eruption near Grindavík, Iceland

    Grindavik has been evacuated for a month due to possibility of eruption and it has finally happened.

    Shawn Willsey, geology professor from Idaho is doing a play by play live stream explaining everything.
