    good, inexpensive color accurate display recommendations?

    I'm looking for the same thing,my old system is showing it's age and I'm planning to get a new one as soon as the new 2080 cards are available and need a new monitor to take advantage of it.

    Paramount Presents Its 'Evidence' Against Crowdfunded 'Star Trek' Film

    The movie actually looks interesting,certainly better than Abrahms trash,but they did cross the line when they paid themselves huge salaries. There's just no way they can claim they haven't profited from it.

    The Robots Sent Into Fukushima Have 'Died'

    Worst comparison ever. When a plane crashes,it doesn't contaminate large areas of land for thousands of years. Or cause increases in cancer,birth defects,and other health issues far beyond the site of the original incident.

    The Robots Sent Into Fukushima Have 'Died'

    On the other hand,no country should know the horrors of nuclear radiation better than Japan,yet they not only decided to build a nuclear power plant,but also picked the worst possible place to build it. And it's clear they have no idea how to handle the situation.

    Raspberry Pi 3 Now Available At $35

    I tried a Pi2 as a console emulator,but could never get the sound to work. Also,I wish they had made it directly bootable from a usb stick,SD cards are just too unreliable with too little memory.

    Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice Final Trailer

    I'm just not sold on the movie. First,they seem to be going for a "Dark Knight Returns" feel,and I was never a fan of Frank Miller's work. The casting is questionable at best,Marvel is way ahead in this,and they're using a major villain in Doomsday(who looks terrible in the trailers) as more or...

    Hard Drive Reliability Review For 2015

    Sorry,I can't take this article seriously. Seagate's problems are well known,and WD drives have served me well for years.

    New Far Cry Primal Trailer

    Might have been better if it was,mammoths and sabertooths just don't compare to T-Rex's and raptors. Really this one is a bit too primal for me,give me a good sniper rifle over bows and spears any day. Why can't they just go back to the original and have Jack Carver return?

    Punisher Spinoff In Development At Netflix

    There was an attempt to make a movie with Ray Park,who played Darth Maul and Toad in X-Men,as Iron Fist,but it fell through.Shame,Park would have been great in the role. The character was my favorite of the hero's from Marvel's martial arts phase.

    Escape from Tarkov (Stalker)

    I agree,STALKER is strictly a single player,personal experience,MMO's just ruin the immersion. I had hoped the success of the Lost Alpha mod would convince CGI to get back into making STALKER 2,but apparently they don't recognize a good thing when they see it.

    Crowdfunded 'Star Trek' Movie Draws Lawsuit from Paramount, CBS

    You couldn't be more wrong. Roddenberry's vision was one of hope of mankind evolving into something better,it used a sci-fi setting to address today's social issues and problems and showing we could overcome them. Star Trek is not Doom,even the Borg episodes were a warning against letting...

    Crowdfunded 'Star Trek' Movie Draws Lawsuit from Paramount, CBS

    Bingo! Anyone is free to make fan films,but the minute they do something that even hints at making any kind of profit off it the studios are going to come down on them like a ton of bricks.

    Crowdfunded 'Star Trek' Movie Draws Lawsuit from Paramount, CBS

    Agreed. Nothing any fan film could do would match the destruction Abram's perpetrated on the franchise.

    How A Threat To Drop AMC Could Kill The Cable Bundle

    The fight scenes are great,but they're sandwiched between boring soap opera set in a totally unbelievable world. Hundreds of years after an apocalypse,there are still functioning vehicles? There are no apparent manufacturing plants,so we're supposed to believe those cars lasted all that time...

    How A Threat To Drop AMC Could Kill The Cable Bundle

    AMC has to share some of the blame for this mess,they've been extorting cable companies more and more with Walking Dead.It's really their only bargaining chip now,with series like Madmen and Breaking Bad gone.None of their other new series,even the Walking Dead spin off,are that good.
