This is my Printer.cfg extruder entry - Don't take it as gospel as I'm always tinkering so some things might be a little off - the latest one that I'm working around is that I've replaced the 42-34 motor with one of the bigger steppers and it collides with the Y bed bracket so I currently have a...

What we're seeing here in Aus is any card that is at the cheapest price ($1470 ish or £835) are selling out. I would assume this is the small percentage of buyers for whom the price was just in their spend threshold. There are a host of other cards coming in at $1700—$1999 (£965-£1135) that I...

Curiously were already seeing vendors dropping their prices on the high end cards over here in Aus. They coming in at around 1470-1999 AUD Which is rediculous since the cheapest 4080s are just a couple of hundred more. I'd suspect that sales are going reeeeeealy badly atm.

A new home made addition to the desk (the monitor stand) plus a rug because my feet were too damn cold!:

I get that but when you have the likes of Fox News and CNN doing their damndest to feed hyped up bullpucky as "News" when they're just fluffed up opinion pieces should they be shut down too? (Personally I think so as they're almost as bad a social media for feeding echo chambers but devils...

The question has to be asked - in a democratic country should you not be allowed to say what you like as long as you're not inciting violence?

There are two things that I heard about that gave me pause - one is jailing his political opponent and the other is shutting down TV channels that ran counter to the governments ends. I don't know enough about the justifications for either but they're something that I have to look into further...

Sadly I think that Putin is happy to watch his young people die as long as there is some perception of forward movement. I do wonder how much of this is getting back to him, I mean if is military leaders have been syphoning off money to buy yachts and feeding him porkies, how much does he...

This is where it gets ugly. It's going to reduce to chemical weapons and broad spectrum genocide and the west can't do anything about it without crossing a perceived line that Pooty is more than happy to cross himself. He'll bomb the old USSR NATO countries in a flash if he decides that he has...

Yeah, one I use as a RDP server for work access so I keep work and play separate, it's an old i7 ITX build. My main machine is an AMD 5900x with 64GB RAM and an old 1070ti. I'm holding out for the GPU prices to normalise. The desk/mouse mat is the 5XL from Steelseries which is 1600x800 . I keep...

Thanks - 2x Dell 27" and 1x Philips 43". It's nice to work on.

Mainly because in order to join NATO all 30 countries must agree. I think there is (understandably) trepidation around allowing a country still fresh from conflict into NATO where any aggression following joining demands armed response.

I'd be curious to see who the 17 are...

There is what he says vs what he does. Rarely are they the same thing.

LOL that is an amazing revelation!

I would expect the start of such a conflict would be strategic bombing - take out airfields, coastal defences, docks etc. China does have a vastly superior air force (in numbers anyway).

This is true - suffice to say China now has an avenue to cheap LNG and a captive demand for manufactured goods and food. I'm just curious to see how much Xi is willing to risk playing the same game with Taiwan - I'm guessing at this stage they're pretty spooked by the severity of the sanctions...

I agree - the NATO carry on is just a part of the smoke and mirrors game that he's playing. Pooty is all about becoming the Tzar and building both an empire and a dynasty. I also think that you're right about the way that this will play out - he's stuck and really should've just steamed straight...

Aye - and do your damndest to be the bigger person in it.
