Well... Can't say we weren't warned! But everybody just kept buying their crap year over year anyway. I have a 5080 myself, but I upgraded from a RX 580. I would have bought a 4080 or 7900 XTX, but both were tremendously overpriced this year in India.

It IS a great read. The "monster" is easily among the greatest character ever created in Gothic fiction.
Finsihed Reading Frankenstein!

Really liked it. I love the flowery prose, particularly in regards to how Shelley describes nature. Neat stuff.

I like how in the events preceeding the Monster's creation, Victor's so incredibly full of whimsy and hope, just to re-iterate that shit's about to get bad

Can relate... Every laptop I have ever used had some weird component that would break shit unless you ran all the bloat the manufacturer shipped.
Way more people would have a good time switching to Linux if their first experience was a desktop computer instead of a laptop

Extinction rarely departs with drama, it slips out the back door while we’re still debating the guest list. These records are made official on the Red List. "Conservation failures are often recognised only once they can no longer be reversed."

Delighted to be part of Michael Levin’s ongoing symposium on Platonic spaces in biology.

My lecture focused on how we can use formalized algebraic models of language to narrow the space of candidate neural mechanisms.

A fantastic take by Greg Grandin outlines exactly how moral posturing by the culture warriors and vested interest of the liberal elite and alt right converge to try malign the greatest public intellectual and scientific thinker of our times.

What the Noam Chomsky–Jeffrey Epstein E-mails Tell Us
Chomsky has often suffered fools, knaves, and criminals too lightly. Epstein was one of them. But that doesn’t mean Chomsky was part of the “Epstein class.”

A true 1960s radical, Michael Albert, destroys the attempts to smear the greatest public intellectual and scientific thinker of out times by the liberal establishment, culture warriors and alt-right.

Linus Tech Tips, LTT, is one of the biggest scumbags on YouTube, with an out of control ego. People should have known this when he tried to peddle a cheap mass produced rebadged backpack for hundreds of dollars, and then tried to justify not providing any warranty policy.
