I will also be looking into this as soon as I figure out which graphics card I can actually purchase.

The new Nvidia cards dropped the USB C connector for video which, if I remember correctly, certain VR headsets use. The new AMD Radeon cards retain the USB C video out port.

I haven't done a lot of research yet, just some casual reading here and there.

Whatever it turns out to be, it has to work with the RC Heli Simulators.

We grew up in dirt, weeds, creek water, fish guts, dead critters, snakes and cowpies. Pretty stout immune systems we.

Very true. I do wonder a little if not being out and about is weakening my immune system. It’s world is about 1/10 of what it’s ever known.

It takes a very long time for something like that to happen. Much, much longer than a few months.

I know the US desire to associate this mysterious syndrome with the sinister activities of Boris Bednov and Natasha Fatale, but I was under the impression that the puzzle had been solved more than a year ago. Perhaps the US intelligence authorities simply can't fathom there may not have been any malicious intent targeting "their"diplomats.

In any case, I'll stay with the less John LeCarre novel worthy explanations described here

I must say though, I am sure the recent US story does make for good prime time TV and conspiracy fodder.

Sent that to D2 - the psychologist.

Nobody believes anything NRO says because they've been critical of Trump in the past.

Only truly free thinkers are able to believe everything Trump tells us, and NRO are clearly brainwashed.

The early success of the Atlantic provinces in the first wave of mitigating then virtually eliminating Covid until just the past six weeks was owing to creating a bubble. Likewise the North West Territories undertook a similar bubble policy last spring and remains, other than one or two cases of Covid early on last spring, free of the pandemic.

But... but..they signed an AGREEMENT!!! Surely they would not cheat on it.

So you agree with her

I can't stand the woman.

Faraday cage around his head would have prevented this tragedy.

Never really hurts.

Time lag is a good 22 days.

Cases really are rising.

Remember that seeing Star Wars multiple times in the theatre was a big thing?

I remember a kid interviewed on the local news who had seen it 17 times. Nowadays you’d empty your college fund doing that.

I saw it twice in the theaters. And that was a huge concession from my folks, who thought that was a waste of money (I was 9 maybe).

Anyone else see it multiple times? I mean during its first run in the theaters.

Yes, once in a regular theater and twice at a drive-in.

Really? Weren’t you like 3?

I didn’t say I drove... I was 5 when it came out, but it was still showing in Drive-Ins 2 years later.

Very neat map

Would you like to actually get your order? I used to tip them in cash because I prefer to tip for services received, not just because. Then my daughter started driving for Instacart. No tip? You might not have a driver accept the gig. Drivers do not have to take what they don’t want. That changes the equation. Now I am back to a 20% tip at time of order and I get great service.

We have plenty of funny here. Are you guys skipping the Giuliani threads?

Not a lot of cute, though. I’ll give you that.

For cuteness we have froggos. 😁

Thank you.

Now this LEADERSHIP (from behind)

The WHO is set to approve the vaccine.....wait for it....in a couple of weeks. Remember how we were supposed to rely on WHO?

Actually it’s just another reminder of how messed up the blame game has been.
