    Europeon Left vs. American Left

    The American Left still supports/endures Capitalism. The European Left, on the otherhand, is, like, actually Left. /thread

    Does AMD have an equivalent ULMB option?

    As said it's panel tech...why should the GPU company advertise it?

    You can't make this up: To fund border wall, Trump weighs cuts to Coast Guard, airport security

    Exactly. Maybe he thinks the U.S. coast guard is part of Mexico

    The Law and building the "wall"

    As many a political commentator likes to say, voting for Trump was seen as a way of rejecting establishment politics. I say he'd go much further at actually living up to that image if he'd actually follow through on his campaign promises. Otherwise he's just another phony like all the...

    7970

    I'm still on my 7970 from 2012 too. Has held its own amazingly well. Would I welcome an upgrade? Sure. Is it essential yet? Not for non-enthusiast gaming, no Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Deus Ex Mankind Divided

    I just tried this game. Am a massive fan of the series and forced myself to wait out a few months of patches before playing. Despite this, the game is still (on my system) utterly broken. Crashes every few minutes. Real shame too as it looks cool. This is basically the opposite of my...

    Civil War: Good Guns N' Roses song or best Guns N' Roses song?

    Phrase that bothers me

    Ha! Some that annoy me: 1) "All I know is (insert opinion here)." It's not "all" you know, and it it was I'd be even less inclined to just blindly agree without real evidence. 2) "I could care less." It's "I couldN'T care less," you illiterate filth. 3) "A leopard can't change it's...

    Phrase that bothers me

    If you'll pardon my French, your thread is all talk and no trousers. Your point, though not half-wrong, has been known for donkey's years, and you'll convince me otherwise when pigs fly. Bob's your uncle, and he's hairy at the heel to boot. ... Cat got your tongue? (Edited for clarity)

    [TFT CENTRAL]Asus ROG Swift PG279Q review

    Maybe USA gets a slightly different sub-model? Korean and EU electric plugs are identical AFAIK so they could come from different batches to the American screens?

    How old are ya anyways? (in computer years)

    Yes I an old enough to remember that. In fact, I'm so old I'm not even confident I know what you mean by "DC history"...

    How do you take your coffee?

    Black, no sugar. Prepared in a Bialetti Moka, from home roasted beans that I source and grind myself. As superior as the experience is to 99% of the other coffees out there, it's still only barely acceptable compared to espresso from a roastery/coffeeshop that truly knows what it is doing and...
