Re: Hearthstone Duels
Like all Hearthstone, any game mode is gonna have some high variance real bullshit from time to time. I think it's more palatable in Duels, because no one can do the bullshit on every run due to the draft nature of the format, so it feels less suffocating.

I spent $45 in total on my card collection: one $20 bundle for the latest expansion (Darkmoon), one $20 bundle for...

Venture Capital is deforming business
The article says "deforming capitalism" but honestly I think capitalism is doing just fine. It's this whole concept of "making goods or services and exchanging them for money" which is being unrecognizably bent. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/11/30/how-venture-capitalists-are-deforming-capi...

Broadly, we're looking at a landscape right now where there's many UHD options, and many wide gamut high contrast HDR options, but very few UHD wide gamut HDR options, especially at sizes > 30".

HMDI 2.1 is required if you want 60 Hz and 10 bit color, actually.

Re: 2020 HW thread
Big problem with my previous posted: all the Nvidia cards launched thus far are for 650W or bigger PSUs! However, looking at the Founders Edition card, I am guessing the 225W cards won't really be 4K@60FPS, which is what I'm in the market for. Even the 3070 can't do that at max settings, but if I re...

Mike Godwin (yeah, that Godwin) lays out the case that Section 230 of the CDA enables moderation of user-generated content. I get the argument... I feel like that there has to be a third way?
