The tech specs dont mention anything about requiring USB 3.0, so I assume you should be fine.

Could always use a PCI adapter if youre that worried about it (or just rely on games that run directly on the Steam Frame.

2018 to 2022 didnt see much change (and given how far until its fully returned to normal, I think you can see qhy - it takes a long time to fully heal), but we're certainly pretty far into success compared to where we were.

Tbf, its not even yet a win technically.

TCO is expected to return to 1980 values around 2066 in the Antarctic, around 2045 in the Arctic, and around 2040 for the near-global average (60°N-60°S). - Source

“You have a lion, a bear, an alligator and... a squirrel. OK, which is the squirrel?” Trump recounted at the event.

The question involving a cat, a dog, and a raccoon were too challenging, I'm sure.

We have two sets of glass doors and one of them is missing the screen door (thanks previous owners) - any idea who might sell a replacement?

From all of the ones I've found, they all seem to be double rollers where the top ones just push against the top - ours actually hang almost like a zipline (you can slightly see the wheel at the screw)

I'd love to do this myself instead of replacing the entire door but cant actually seem to find someone selling a kit..

Any ideas? The only other idea I have is to just use a retractable, but having an actual door would be ideal.

The White House’s plans to completely annihilate Iran are so haphazard that even the vice president can’t keep up with them.

JD Vance was apparently caught off guard Tuesday when a journalist informed him that Donald Trump had threatened to obliterate the entire Iranian civilization by 8 p.m. Vance was onstage in Budapest at the time, feet away from Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

Clowns going to clown.

Any wireless headphones people would recommend?

I currently have a pair of Arctis 7Xs that I use the Xbox adapter with while dual booting windows - I'd like to find something that isn't so finicky and works with both OSes (mostly so I can boot into Windows less...) while also working over 2.4Ghz for low latency.

Bonus points if you can also connect a phone other Bluetooth

In a remarkable 24 hours in Washington, House Republicans snubbed a bipartisan funding deal cut by their own Senate GOP counterparts and instead approved an entirely different plan — prolonging the Department of Homeland Security shutdown.

Then, they left town.

Simply amazing - remember that instead of solving the problem, Republicans went on vacation.

Pairs well with a NIST PB&J

TEL AVIV — The U.S. and Israel have launched strikes against Iran with the goal of toppling the regime, President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday.

Iran retaliated by launching missiles at Israel and a U.S. naval base in Bahrain. An Iranian official said all Israeli and U.S. interests in the region were now considered legitimate targets.

I hope everyone enjoys the explosive new prices that result.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly found that the IRS had erroneously shared the taxpayer information of thousands of people with the Department of Homeland Security as part of the agencies’ controversial agreement to share information on immigrants for the purpose of identifying and deporting people illegally in the U.S.

Her finding was based off a declaration filed earlier this month by Dottie Romo, IRS’ chief risk and control officer, which revealed that the IRS had provided DHS with information on 47,000 of the 1.28 million people that ICE requested — and, in most of those cases, gave ICE additional address information in violation of privacy rules created to protect taxpayer data.

Amazing - if you or I broke the law that many times, there'd be a hundred new laws.

As Trump entered the chamber, Green held up a sign reading "BLACK PEOPLE AREN'T APES!" and remained standing as Trump began his speech.

Can we all just a moment to reflect that "black people arent apes" is anti-Trump?

I’ve talked to several reporters, and quite a few news outlets have covered the story. Ars Technica wasn’t one of the ones that reached out to me, but I especially thought this piece from them was interesting (since taken down – here’s the archive link). They had some nice quotes from my blog post explaining what was going on. The problem is that these quotes were not written by me, never existed, and appear to be AI hallucinations themselves.

Super disappointing for Arstechnica here.

Like, how does that even happen?

Federal prosecutors have opened a criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, he confirmed on Sunday evening.

Powell said the probe was the result of the Fed “setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of” President Donald Trump.

Terrible precedent that will harm our economy's ability to recover from high unemployment or inflation.

Powell's statement is worth a read

A judge will have to sign off on the proposed settlement, which calls for the Education Department to not enroll any new borrowers in the plan, deny any pending applications and move all SAVE borrowers into other repayment plans.

The Education Department said that more than 7 million people are enrolled in the plan and that it will begin outreach to affected borrowers in the coming weeks with guidance about how to repay their loans.

The serfdom will continue, until moral improves.

Honestly same with music services.

I never want to hear an edited/censored song. I'm an adult, not someone listening to Kidz Bop
