  • Alyx came out 4 years ago, and is recognized as one of the best VR titles of all time. It's a full 15 hour game, so not a tech demo. I'd say that's a hit.

  • The CHIPS (etc) Act was enough to justify his presidency by itself, IMO. It was insane that such a huge percentage of the world's semiconductor research and production were concentrated in one country, especially a small one that China has been eyeing like a feral cat for years.

  • At 80+Gb that means it's a straight blu-ray rip without being recompressed at all, which is perfect if you have a nice home theater system. You definitely notice the difference then. But if you're just watching on an average monitor with headphones or such, then you're honestly better off finding a smaller version that someone properly compressed down a bit.

  • John Cho was solid, the writing was terrible and tried too hard to make it have light hearted jokes, a la Marvel. Like the "Shower bath shower" scene was out of character for both Spike and Faye and didn't land under the circumstances.

  • Drop has kinda gone to shit anyways. Though I have gotten some good headphones off them. But I ordered a set of wood IEM's back in January. Got and update like a month later that the supply chain got messed up, will ship in June. Current order status is "Reserved for shipment. Estimated ship date: July 10". So like a week ago. And all the emails from them lately have been

    "Check out these amazing keycaps!11!1!"

    "Hey look, we got more keycaps!!!!"

    "Limited time only super-special keycaps!"

    "Hey, you looking for some keycaps?!"

    It's not what it used to be, just like everything else on the internet.

  • Cpu is a ryzen 2600, it doesn't have an iGPU.

  • MakeMKV (at least in windows) lets you rip a remuxed mkv without having to rip everything. So you can just select the titles, audio, and subtitle tracks you want without ripping all the other stuff. You don't need to make a full backup and then pull all that out.
