    Empire in Decline

    So, the DOJ is now going after Frey and Walz, as predicted. On another note, AWS sets up the AWS European Soverign Cloud - Built, operated, controlled, and secured in Europe. https://aws.eu/ This is probably the only way forward if the cloud providers wants to continue with their business in...

    Empire in Decline

    Some. kind of uprising is perhaps more probable than an outright war. I share your opinion 100%, and it just sucks for everybody except a few billionares. The situation in Europe is that we now spend more money on our defence + we have superior tech over the enemy (from the east). But it takes...

    Empire in Decline

    This will most likely end up as a civil war/revolution in the future. Perhaps a couple of generations down the road, but the situation will not go away or improve by itself. Now that both [r]ussia and USA are openly teaming up to attack the European democracies, I am worried that Europe will...

    150 hp is really efficient. And I am somewhat jealous of you and living in Denmark. I have ~1100-1200 km to drive before I reach the continent. Venice is really nice, haven't been to Lago di Garda, Verona is probably the closest. Italy in general is fantastic with the food and everything.

    Nice! Are you travelling further south (or east/west for that matter :) ) or staying in the area?

    Looking forward to reports from both the computer and BMW projects. :) Classic 6 cylinder BMWs are the best (according to me) and ~1990~2004 was probably when the fun peaked in the car industry.

    Hmm, the US regime stops Maxars delivery of satellite images to Ukraine. That means any service from US companies can be disabled at any moment to extort foreign countries or organisations.

    Empire in Decline

    The only upside in this situation is that the leaders of Europe are waking up, spending more on defence for example. This (the waking up part) should have happened at least 3 years ago.

    Video Cards

    I can report that the son is happy with the B580. It is not super amazing but still good performance, especially for the price. Not a bad buy at this point in time.

    Video Cards

    The card is in the mail, perhaps swedes are a bit slower or they went after the Asrock and Sparkles, which seem to have better cooling and so on. It would be really nice if Intel levelled up on the integrated GPUs. Perhaps in a generation or two? (With the AI-stuff beeing so popular and all?)

    Video Cards

    I ordered a B580 for the son. IIt will join a 11700 (maybe K) and 32 GB RAM. And he uses a 1080 monitor, so it should be enough.
