Read the latest reviews and you'll hear differently.

This latest generation of ARC GPUs is very promising. I'm really glad there's finally some good budget gaming GPUs out there. Intel has really committed to this product line, and I really hope it continues to pay off.

The price/performance is fantastic, the power efficiency is decent, and the feature set is way beyond expectations--almost caught up with Nvidia on their second attempt. The rate of improvement is impressive.

I have some friends still on GTX 10 series cards that would love this upgrade. That being said, personally, there's no reason for me to switch yet. As soon as Intel has something that can beat an RTX 3080Ti via higher tiers or next gen, I'll gladly ditch Nvidia.

The two AC games where people complained the story was too long and monotonous? Great idea.

Oh, benevolent Nintendo has graced us with the ability to play some more classic ROMS as long as we stay subscribed to their shitty online service.

I win a lot of bets by telling people I can do a full 360 without breaking eye contact. If you can balance while bending over backwards and spinning it’s not too hard.

How about we just do away with unencrypted messaging all-together?

Hopefully this means they’re working on the game? A Black Flag remaster is probably the only thing that would get me to play Assassin’s Creed again.

These are the candidates? They look like clones.

You mean like imagining a voice speak out your thoughts? Thoughts are so much faster than speech, I feel like having to speak out all your thoughts would slow things down significantly.

The best tip I learned about reading faster is to stop narrating the words in your head, which puts a hard limit on your reading speed.

America's working class has a long history of buying into propaganda and acting against their own interests. It's a huge reason why the medical industry has gotten so bad.

That being said, it's important to keep our anger focused on the system, not people who are getting suckered by it.

I think this is why there's a common narrative on the internet that this "evidence" was planted to frame a random dude.

It's fair to call that a conspiracy theory at this point, but hopefully due process will reveal the truth.

I suspect the perceived morality of his actions has a strong effect here. I don't think people are "looking past" his actions as much as they likely aren't as repulsed by them.

For internal desktop drives, I have the WH16NS40. After flashing some open firmware on it, it works perfectly for playing and ripping BRs. Looks like I'll be picking up a spare in case this one dies.

The MakeMKV forum has a lot of good tips and instructions on selecting and configuring BluRay drives.

I'd have no issue with digital media if there was a way to actually own it. Everything is either streaming only or ridden with DRM that can only be played within their app. Blurays, assuming you can decrypt its DRM bs, are the last bastion of media ownership left.

Never buy any hardware that doesn’t work offline.
