Stunned. Shocked. Gobsmacked. My gast has been flabbered. A psychotic dog-killing attempted-mass-murdering terrorist is a religious right winger? But his god wrote a Holy Listicle of Top Ten Things You Shouldn't Do and killing was in it.

Next you'll tell me that this wasn't personally motovated and he had lists in his car of targets and gatherings that were all solely Democrat or left-leaning.

I'm glad the info is being disseminated, don't get me wrong. The turbo-violent, wildly insecure, hate-filled, extremist terrorist party currently in charge of the country has definitely been trying to paint this as some kind of false flag, so the truth needs to be out there no matter how obvious it is.

I'm just exhausted that everyone else keeps continuing to play by rules that have been broken so hard by the hate-cult-turned-political-party that they're going back and stepping the shattered pieces. Any opposition they have refuses to stop wringing their hands and trying to compromise. You can't play by broken rules and expect the same outcome. This is the start of what you get when you do.

You'll be relatively fine if you're white. Otherwise that train is stopping in El Salvador first.

There was a post about this on the Framework Community forum ages ago, and as of the last time I checked (which by now was like six months the ago) the only solution was to tape over a few of the exhaust holes on each side of the back of the GPU module.

It's counterintuitive, but it actually helps airflow since most of the heat actually comes from the CPU, so the hot air is forced out the sides more which helps keep the CPU cooler. It also helps the whine when the fans are at full tilt.

Yes, they are. That's why they released a gaming GPU as an option at launch.

Let me tell you something as an American, buddy: if the next Bond is one of us then do you know how I'm going to feel? I'm going to be unbelievably, completely disappointed as well. Fuckin Amazon would do it, too. Would definitely be one of the final nails in the franchise's coffin.

I think that phrase just chipped away at my delicate teenage self esteem back in the day. Something new to bring up in therapy: being bullied by RTS games.

They already made Battleship. That board game has even less implied plot than VS, so that argument isn't the roadblock for Hollywood that it should be.

EDIT: That being said, it's entirely possible and likely that this linked database is an undercount.

I can tell you with certainty that it is an undercount. It stops at the end of November. My cousin was murdered by her husband in late December. Not his first time physically abusing her, and despite him being booked this time last year for it, nothing was done. This is the result.

Thanks for shouting this out. Honestly the only thing keeping me going back to Windows is the complexity in getting modding done on various games, Bethesda and BG3 among them. I know it can be done, but there are too many hoops for my post-work brain to jump through. End up running out of spoons to keep learning all the new concepts. This is exciting, definitely keeping an eye on this as hopefully the final barrier breaker to switch to Linux full time.

Like many here, I'm also looking forward to a good story driven Star Trek game. It feels like it's been so long since a proper one came out, and I have high hopes that this one will combine story with great gameplay. Definitely excited for it!
