Apparently people didn’t get the notice. Mortgage interest rates are still >5% for anyone renewing now. Three new houses are being built right now in the street behind mine.

Weird how our neighbourhood didn’t see any new buildings from 2016-2022 but now it rains, it pours.

Not surprised in the slightest.

Everything that isn’t in line with Putin’s point of view is at risk of being classified as terrorist or extremist, as simple as that.

I’ve never been a fan of Torts either, always seem to be on player bashing mode, punitive trainings etc.

I guess GMs see something that we don’t if he keeps getting jobs around the league.

Me neither. I play at 1440p/120hz. Both cables can manage that resolution and frame rate.

The only difference I get is when I use DisplayPort and leave my computer alone for 20 mins, the GPU goes to sleep and the monitor won’t display anything although I hear background apps/games running.

Without changing any settings, using a HDMI cable solved that.

HDMI it is.

French, old millenial. Plenty of Jean-“X”. What I mean is :

Jean-François Jean-Michel Jean-Luc Jean-Mathieu Jean-Marc …

I hope so too but the fact that he and Dube are both out at the same time seems kinda suspicious.

Let’s see how it goes, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt.

Unbelievable how Jacques Martin is somehow still relevant today as a head coach. You look over your shoulder, he’s there, lurking in the shadows, waiting for his next stint in the NHL.

I sure wish they make the playoffs. Good team with an average coach.

MTL - CBJ : Battle of the bottom feeders. My bet is on CBJ to win it 3-2 despite a solid showing from Montembeault.

It’s never too late to learn a language. However, French is one hell of a step coming from English.

French is my main language and even if I’ve been speaking it for close to 40 years now, I still learn language exceptions and rules today.

Still, I’d give it a go if I were you, learning something new is always fun. Enjoy!

First, you want to play on high/60fps but at what resolution? Paying over 1700$CAD for a RTX4090 GPU seems overkill while a RX6800 or a RX7700/7800 would let you play at 1080p/1440p at high settings at a fraction of the price.

SSD is fine.

PSU could be reduced to 850W.

64GB RAM is overkill for gaming right now but potentially useful in the upcoming years.

Bottom line, you could save here and there and still have a capable AM5 machine.

If you want value for your buck, build yourself an AM4 machine. Yes, AM5 is out now but your rig could still last you many many years with the right AM4 components.

Germany’s Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, had a jogging incident and is wearing an eye patch to cover the bruises. The picture just screams “use me for good memes”.

I get about 24-28hours of light tasks (Lemmy, web, mail) and about 12-14h of heavier use. I’ve activated the battery saver when under 25% battery so it stops trying to refresh and ping apps every 5 mins.

I currently own the Pixel 7 and I’ve yet to hit a major bug or freeze. Really pleased with it and I plan to keep it for a while.

Still earned multiple millions dollars his weird NHL stint. Too bad he couldn’t get his shit straight, wasting all the talent he had.

Not surprised in the slightest.

Most of my immediate neighbours own houses way outside their budget/payment capacity. As you said, add inflation and bigger monthly mortgage payments to the mix and it’s no surprise they can’t save 200$/month.
