    Woodward/Costa book: Worried Trump could 'go rogue,' Milley took top-secret action to protect nuclear weapons

    Recap of the Milley stuff... - US intel report on 10/30/20 indicated China thought Trump, in a desperate bid to win reelection, would manufacture a crisis, use it as justification to attack them, and paint himself as some sort of savior figure - Milley was "certain" Trump was increasingly manic...

    Amazon Prime Day

    The 55" flat (UN55KU6300) is live at BB for $600 as of 4:54p central, if you're ok with paying $50 more than Amazon. Strongly debating picking one up... I have no real need though...

    Help me narrow down 32"+ 4K choices

    Late reply, but... I just picked up a used 31MU97-B and am loving it (mostly) so far. I'm sort of similar to you - don't really play games any more and thus don't care about gsync/freesync. The fact that the monitor is 4096x2160 vs "consumer" 4k (3860x2160) was highly appealing to me - even...

    Dying for a new huge monitor

    I do, but not much any more as mentioned. Last two games I played were FO4 and GTA5, but I only got through about 30% of FO4 before getting bored. My 290 (now 390) had no issues with either of those at 25x16. Anything you want me to try/do?

    Dying for a new huge monitor

    I was kinda in the same boat as you - I originally bought a 34" LG 34UM95 to replace my PL setup (20" 16x12 2007FP + 30" 25x16 U3011) but I missed the vertical space (mostly physically) so much that I just relegated it to office duty and kept on using my PL setup for everything else. I'm weird...

    Anyone here with a Dell UP3216Q (32", 4k, 60Hz)?

    Did a search here and couldn't find any thread from when it was announced. Searching for the model number yielded 3 threads, all in which the OP ended up going with another monitor. So... Anyone here own or has used a Dell UP3216Q before? I only found one (non-video) review that has more...

    MSI Cubi - booting from 2.5" drive?

    I was wrong about MSI saying that - an early reviewer of the thing said it. Yeah, I've come across that thread already. I'm putting W7 x64 on it, the BIOS I have is the correct one for that. The last post in that thread also says you can boot from the 2.5" drive. There's at least one person...

    MSI Cubi - booting from 2.5" drive?

    MSI Cubi (Broadwell) owners - did any of you have any trouble getting the thing to recognize a 2.5" drive? I haven't ever gotten any of the drives I've tried to show up in the BIOS (2 SSDs and 2 HDDs so far). I can get all of my mSATA drives to show up fine. The Windows installer can see the...
