Zotac might do it; they already have their ZBOX Magnus lineup with Ryzen 5-1400.

They got caught, prosecuted, and went right back to making money from said sites.

The model numbers you're looking for are iX-8xxxG.

Dell are doing preorders on XPS15 2-in-1; HP doing same on the 15" Spectre x360.

>>>In one incident, the Carlsbad Army Airfield Auxiliary Air Base (32°15′39″N 104°13′45″W) near Carlsbad, New Mexico, was set on fire on May 15, 1943, when armed bats were accidentally released. The bats roosted under a fuel tank and incinerated the test range.

I got such a delicious feeling of Schadenfreude from this.

I've bought a few things after reading their reviews, but since found a select few youtubers who seem more genuine (e.g. RocketJumpNinja for gaming mice).

It's certainly not helping to add another, growing source of heat/electricity to the mix.

Completely apropos to the article, but why is it that when I pressed ESC on my keyboard, the article redirected me to try & log in to Squarespace?

[anecdotal] In our little fighting game community, our tech-savvy guys got tired of trying to add features to the IRC channel, so when they heard of Discord they just convinced everyone to switch to that. It's easier for Facebook-followers to follow a link to Discord than ask them to download an IRC client -> open #server -> open #channel

My politicial mindset, today, is vastly different to my political mindset from 5 or 10 years ago.

It helps that I live in a country with more than 2 dominant political parties; it lets me think in shades of gray (rather than in black-and-white).

> "I wish they wouldn't do that," said the officer with impressive cool. I tried to copy his nonchalant tone and said, "I suppose you get quite used to that sort of thing." "Not a bit of it, old man," he replied, lowering his voice. "What you get used to is pretending you are not as scared as your men are."

Pretty ironic, considering they're talking about the Iraq War (an invasion founded on lies & deceit)
