TL;DW:
[1440p Average] "So across 16 games tested, the 9070 XT saw on average a 9% improvement with the latest game and driver updates. In comparison the 5070 Ti saw just a 2½% improvement."

  • Steve Walton from Hardware Unboxed.

4K results shows the 5070 Ti and the 9070 XT performance matching neck and neck.

  1. On review day the 5070 Ti was 2% faster, but now the 9070 XT is 3% faster than the 5070 Ti.
  2. With the 9070 XT being $150 CAD or ~30% cheaper (in US and AU) than the 5070 Ti, the 9070 XT wins out in being the better value buy.

"They actually have the right, to take products that they don't own and sell them at any price that they want; basically liquidate them and then keep all the profits for themselves and use that money to pay off the banks and to pay off the bankruptcy debt that they have."

What the fuck
How is this possible?!????


A small list of the 124 affected companies/studios:

  • Archie Comics
  • Bandai Entertainment
  • Boom Entertainment
  • DC Comics
  • Goodman Games
  • Green Ronin
  • IDW Publishing
  • [indecipherable] Comics
  • Marvel Comics
  • Pizo Comics
  • Titan Comics

Fuck Diamond Comic Distributors and jesus christ US you gotta fix your shit this is ridiculous. Your poor bankruptcy laws are actually causing a cascading negative economic effect that will have an impact on your economy.

  • Sure the banks will get paid but all the impacted managers, employees, and related staff all these people who have bills to pay now will not be able to readily pay them back because they likely won't be paid.

This infuriates me in two ways.

Several hundreds of thousands of innocent people will likely be negatively impacted for the benefit of a corrupt few.

Fuck zero-sum systems man. This is honestly why we're still in a pointlessly tragic dystopian society.

Fuck the CCP🖕

Let us enjoy our 🌽Yaoi🍆 and 🌸Yuri!⚔️🔥

An alternative I'd like to recommend is LibreOffice

Dan Leising is Johnny Noviello's (the deceased Canadian cashier and janitor) lawyer.

In 2023, Noviello was convicted of a number of offences — including racketeering and drug trafficking — and had been sentenced to 12 months in prison, according to the ICE release.

Being sentenced to 364 days, he served time in county jail and was out on probation when he was arrested by ICE in May.

Leising says Noviello had not violated the terms of his probation.

Leising described the charges against Noviello as "very, very serious." He said Noviello had worked as a cashier and did some janitorial work, and had no prior criminal record.

"Is he violent or anybody that you'd be afraid of if you walked by them on the street? Absolutely not," said Leising.

Noviello's death comes as ICE agents are making sweeping arrests across the United States.

Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff and the main architect of U.S. President Donald Trump's immigration policies, has pushed ICE to aim for at least 3,000 arrests a day, up from about 650 a day during the first five months of Trump's second term.

I'm upset and angry as more deaths will undoubtedly follow. This is 2025 and yet innocent people are still being slaughtered.

We are all human. Everyone just wants to live at minimum a decent life.

Why can't we simply acknowledge that mass deportations, perpetual hate, and attacking others will not make things better. This is not the way.

I cannot describe the unbelievable frustrations that I have deep inside as a systems analyst. 답답하다🇨🇦🇰🇷🖕


Please tell your lived ones to escape if you can. You might've already heard and seen others saying the same. This is a repeat of similar tragedies and things will only get worse in the short term and it will most likely be quite some time until things get better again in the Dictatorial States of America.

Federated votes seems like a great idea as it solves both the private/public and good faith/bad faith voting situations👍

Ca.pcpartpicker Price History

  • $1099 CAD with "Free Shipping" as of 2025, June 24 @5:43am UTC

This sale will mostly benefit Canadians who need/want:

  • a GPU that will likely last them +5 years.
  • to extend the period between hardware refresh cycles.

Edit:
I almost forgot to mention that if you have a MemoryExpress near you, you can take advantage of their "Über Price Beat Guarantee"

memoryexpress will not only beat any authorized Canadian retailer/etailer's price, we'll beat it by 10% of the difference, and if you find a better price within 15 days of purchase we'll beat that too!

So for this it should come out to ~$1090.90 CAD before tax if price matched.

So I guess coffee/caffeine acts like a catalyst that overclocks a brain's frequency then?

I feel like what will really drive Plasma Mobile forward is a flagship device just like what we saw with Valve's Steamdeck.

I'm glad the development is still progressing but if you're on the KDE team please consider reaching out to OEMs and startups to try and have a deliverable device cause people like me are still looking to buy a Linux phone~🥲✊🍀

Good therapists are security researchers for helping people recognize and fix their own vulnerabilities.

And if you're good at self-reflection, you can be both the playtester and dm.
