    PCIe 3.0 and 6600k Recommendations

    I've made a rule not to buy a AAA title, unless I am absolutely convinced it is worth paying the price. I'm very happy playing older games. I was even looking at recent GPU reviews and I didn't even know what most of them were. You're right, I'm a leapfrog upgrader. There's sort of a lineage of...

    PCIe 3.0 and 6600k Recommendations

    Thanks everybody! An RTX 3060 seems about right for the time being. For those concerned about the CPU being the bottleneck, I have intentions to upgrade to an AMD 5600X with a new mainboard somewhere down the line. I've come to a conclusion to not buy AAA titles and to keep my gaming a bit more...

    PCIe 3.0 and 6600k Recommendations

    I generally leapfrog my upgrades. Mobo/RAM/CPU will come later on. I'll check out the RTX 3060s.

    PCIe 3.0 and 6600k Recommendations

    I am due for a little bit of an upgrade. I am currently running an AMD R9 290 in my 6 year old PC. I have the opportunity for a new card. I am willing to spend $200-$400 on a card. The one bottleneck I am concerned with is PCIe 3.0. I know there were some issues with some newer cards not...

    White House Calls for End to ISS Funding in 2025

    Not a bad thing. If we would like to sustain any other crewed outpost or BEO exploration mission, the ISS must end.

    SpaceX Is Attempting Another First Next Week

    I don't think it's because NASA is trying to keep a secret, rather there are no concrete plans of missions beyond LEO. However, they have been looking at proposed contacts for a Deep Space Gateway to allow operations in cislunar space...

    Wells Fargo To Use 'Robo-Advisers'

    This is correct. It is also to appeal to younger customers so that these kinds of firms stay relevant to the all ages of the population.

    To comment on the footage, they have done some testing of their capsule. One is of the capsule hovering firing the Super Draco engines. Another is of a pad abort test where the capsule fires the engines to escape a faulty rocket.

    Atlas - The 'Walks Like A Drunk' Robot

    Humanoid robots for a humanoid world. If we want them to make a cup of tea they will have to be the correct proportions to use an already existing stove, teapot, cup. I do think for other purposes, a quadruped robot is best, like a pack mule.

    Wayward Russian Spacecraft Could Hit Earth Friday

    I don't understand why people are surprised by this. All Progress missions end with the craft burning up in the atmosphere.
