So you think 30-40 year old men worshipping cartoon characters is all right?

I never really understood how a grown up man can collect something like Pokemon cards or anime figures. It just seems so childish to me. There is no intrinsic value in something like Pokemon cards. I can understand collecting sports cards, stamps, or similar - at least they represent a real person, team, event, etc. which makes them valuable from a historical standpoint. But still, collecting anything that is not needed for survival is just silly IMO, especially if you are struggling financially. The absolute peak of this nonsense is adults collecting virtual items in a video game and paying thousands of dollars for stuff they don't even own physically.

In your head: "won't run any of the new games" Actual reality: "runs most good games at 1080p 60-120 fps"

Yes, it's perfectly fine. I would even argue it's more stable for everyday use than your average 2025 build.

I could go and buy 10x Nvidia 4090, 128GB RAM computers if I wanted to, but why would I waste my money for stuff I don't need? You guys are slaves of consumerism. A 2017 high-end PC running Win 10 is still perfectly fine in 2025 if you know how to build a PC. In fact, Windows 10 with all the updates is now absolutely perfect - a flawless experience with zero issues.

I have a feeling that most of the price increases are driven by pure greed and speculation. I can't see regular people paying $500-1000 for a pair of RAM sticks. You might make a couple hundred bucks per RAM, or you might end up holding dead meat once this whole thing crashes. This is a pure speculation, nothing else.

Oh, nice. So, now crypto gamblers are gambling with RAM prices. You will surely become a RAM millionaire, LMAO. BTW, I bought my 32GB RAM in 2017, and I will never build a new PC. Windows 11, as well as 99% of new games suck anyway, so I am sticking with my 2017 build for eternity. So much money to be saved and put to a better use.

Friends: Predator Edition Two and Half Predators

IMHO the coolest yet the most depressing setting would be WW1 - Christmas truce. Both sides would have not only refused to fight each other, but they would have to join forces against a common enemy - the predator. Another one - The 1845 Franklin expedition. There is already a series about a monster killing the whole expedition, but a predaror movie would have been much better IMO.

I think the native American theme fitted perfectly. Another great fit would be samurai. But any historical era would be interesting. Just make the movie realistic enough and don't make the predator act like a little girl lol

Don't watch it. It's clearly made for teenagers. It's not a terrible movie, but has very little to do with all previous movies.

...and it's a big disappointment. I enjoyed the PREY movie much more (very interesting story). Badlands is like a mix of Star Wars and Avatar with a predator character. Nothing original. This is unfortunate as both movies were made by the same diterctir. Your thoughts?

There is a very little chance it will be better than GTA 5 anyway, and if so, it will have crazy CPU requirements. Yeah, I am not building a new PC because of a single game. There are literally no new games that are better than the older ones (with KCD2 being an exception) which saves me a lot of time and money I would otherwise spend on a new PC. I hope it will be delayed till 2030 and it will be bad 😁

Hockey is a high skill / low luck sport. Similar to tennis. It's not about scoring one lucky goal or homerun, and winning the competition. It's all about hard work and teamwork.
