"Teenagers." Yeah, it happens at that age, but that shit happens with people in their mid-30s too. It's pathetic.

The 2024 Volvo EX90 Is A Highly Advanced Flagship Electric 3-Row SUV by cyco1978 in electricvehicles

I have a deposit on one, but I may cancel it for something smaller. The XC 90 is already pretty big and this is even bigger. It looks absolutely gorgeous though.

8GB DDR5 Contract Pricing Dropped 43% Through 2022 by Avieshek in gadgets

[–]chepi888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should always check the QVL on your board, but there is always dropoff. DDR5 is susceptible to this moreso than DDR4. Two sticks seems to be the sweet spot.

8GB DDR5 Contract Pricing Dropped 43% Through 2022 by Avieshek in gadgets

Not worthless, but dropoff on DDR5 is more significant from 1 stick to 2 and even moreso 2 sticks to 4 compared to DDR4. It's much better (even compared to DDR4) to get one 16GB stick than two 8 GB sticks, and so on.

It’s time for Nintendo to make an upgraded Switch. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]chepi888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the Nintendo Switch needs an update. It's 5 years old and was based off 3 year-old tech then. It struggles to run Metroid and Bayonetta 3. Hell, I had frame drops in Luigi's Mansion 3. It launched and couldn't handle Zelda without frame rate drops.

This comparison isn't it though.

Starships is played too much and super bass needs to be worked in instead

Drivers are increasingly ditching Toyota and Honda gas cars in favor of EVs by sylvaing in electricvehicles

[–]chepi888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The RAV4 plug in hybrid and the 2023 plug in Prius are tempting, but overpriced (we'll see on the Prius). For 50k, I'd rather just get an EV.

BZ4X is an embarrassment, especially compared to almost every other ev on the market

Now, when they're still overpriced at $899, people will go nuts over the price drop

It's close to the same after the credit, if not still better at launch

Pixel 6 pro trade in value is up to $550. $200 for the upgrade isn't too bad.

Republicans win U.S. House majority, setting stage for divided government by JM2845 in news

Yeah, 2020 was a census year and Dems didn't do well enough at the state level. This is better than predicted for Dems, but not enough to hold.
