In December 2024, I built a set of Mini PCs for a client. Each PC had 32GB DDR5-5600, which cost $70.99 for each PC. That same kit of memory is $459.99 today.

Harry Truman once said, “Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.” He was right then, and Republicans are proving him right today. Watch.

Can someone ELI5, why every single gaming PC review I do, MULTIPLE people chime in about Star Citizen? "Would this be a good rig to play SC?" "Wow, SC would run really well with that much RAM." "You should benchmark SC next time."

If you're a company advertising on social media, and it's even a consideration that you'll need to disable comments, maybe reconsider... literally everything about your campaign.

Look, I know understanding how TV scheduling is done is not my expertise... but Oregon-OSU has now been kicked from ESPN -> ESPN2 -> ESPNU -> ESPNews -> Disney+ And now Disney+ killed the stream because a 9AM game isn't supposed to go until 1:45PM. As if continuing to stream matters.

While first responders and families were scrambling on 9/11, Donald Trump was on TV bragging that his building was the tallest in Manhattan. "They built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second tallest, and now it's the tallest."

Update: I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. Title, game settings, and graph colors are fully customizable. The graph autoscales to whatever FPS metrics you provide, and also scales vertically depending on how many GPUs you want to show. What do y'all think?

Canada leading the way 🇨🇦 🫡 Cartoon by Steve Neasr.

A massive fist descends from the top left corner. The sleeve features the blue fabric, white star, and red-and-white stripes of the American flag. The thumb is colored a bright, unnatural cheeto-orange, a caricature representing Donald Trump. A much smaller Mark Carney looks upward at the massive hand. He uses his index finger to single-handedly hold up the giant orange thumb, stopping it from crushing him. A speech bubble coming from Carney reads, "NOPE."

Yes, I swapped out the FUMA for an AIO. The air cooler interfeared with the top PCIe slot, which is the only x16 in here. But I made up for it by buying another kit of Dominator Platinum to fill out the board !!!

Media needs to stop sanewashing ICE. A man was not "mistakenly detained" He WAS detained. I know that's a small detail, but when it's the opening line in the article, it frames the whole thing a a giant "whoopsy", rather than the infringement of rights it actually is. Words have meaning.
