i’ve travelled across russia and realized that the soviets just copy pasted their hideous cities all over the country.

even worse, they copy pasted the people. areas that should have been ethnically different, with interesting cultures and cuisines, are instead 90% drunk and vulgar ethnic russian

i mean i already have an lcd tv. i’m only considering this deal because it’s an oled.

if you’ve seen oled in person before, you’d know that the picture quality is much better

never understood that. i think it’s people’s desire to be smug and elitist more than genuine outrage

I have an opportunity to buy a used LG OLED TV 55inch from 2017 for about $300.

Chat, is this a good deal? Should I do it?

Currently have a Samsung LCD from around the same era.

never mind, i should go up the stack and not down. wordcells yield all the power/prestige/income right now and that’s the trajectory i should pursue

guess im not surprised that this wasn’t popular on BSky πŸ˜‚

he is the best though: stays in his lane, doesn’t try to wield power, doesn’t try to impose his views on the rest of us

just livestreams his investing process and trolls people on the other app

Recently bought a modern GPU (9060 xt) for my old PC and have been tinkering.

Learnt that upscaling technologies like FSR/DLSS have gotten incredibly good. And even when games don’t support them officially, there are community mods like OptiScaler.

What a time to be alive!

the formula of success on twitch is doing really dumb, antisocial shit OR sitting in front the camera with your tits almost out

the fact that twitch streamers have collectively made tens of millions of dollars by creating the most retarded, dumb, brain atrophying content is a collective failure of humanity
