Lol. That's not how it works. Anyone is innocent til proven guilty in a court of law. But public opinion has no such requirement. Plus roy moore has about as much proof against him as cosby does.

If I tell the entire world "I murdered 50 people" but didn't do it.
Am I still guilty of murdering 50 people?

Keyword is accussed. Innocent until proven guilty except in some cases eg Cosby

Yup. Moore lost due to dirty politics and unsubstantiated bullshit. The Democrats have nothing to be proud of for how they pulled off this win. But he's a horrible person with horrible ideas (mostly the backward Southern fundamentalist weirdness), so I'm certainly not going to lose any sleep over it. I'm glad he's not going to be in the Senate, but not because he's a 'child molester' or whatever. There hasn't been any credible evidence of that, and we're probably not going to hear much more about it now because 'mission accomplished.'


Legally, sure.

However, there's contemporaneous evidence that he did it, not counting the accuser testimony. He did it.

Like what? He signed a yearbook for someone (which the accuser altered)? He gave someone a birthday card? You think this 'evidence' proves he put his pecker in underage girls? Wow.

In addition to the above evidence, which shows that Roy Moore lied about not knowing the accuser (and wasn't actually altered, just labeled), you've got a whole lot more witnesses than just the accusers who claim that it was known he dated younger women, it was common knowledge that he trolled malls for younger women, and there are reports that he might have been banned from a mall for harassing younger women. I'm not saying that he is definitely guilty; I'm saying he's probably guilty.

Regardless of whether or not the accusations are true (they probably are), he's a terrible person. I'm glad he lost.

I'm guessing what you're referring to is this article:
www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/locals-were-troubled-by-roy-moores-interactions-with-teen-girls-at-the-gadsden-mall/

I read it, weeks ago. One guy won't divulge his many sources (of course), Deputy DA Jones only remembers rumors and that very convenient "common knowledge" line, and Legatt relates hearsay from a cop that nobody bothered to look up for some reason. Nobody quoted ever saw anything or knows anything firsthand. The author didn't try to confirm anything. It's bad journalism, but a perfect hit piece.

As for the last sentence in your post, I agree. I don't like the man and wouldn't have voted for him if I lived there. But not because of this smear attack.

That's not an article I was referring to. Regardless, why are you defending a man who probably did what he did? The preponderance of evidence suggests that he did it, and we can prove that aspects of his denial were lies.

Bob Saget raped and killed a girl in 1990.

Whatever you were referring to is derivative then, because that article was the source of all those 'banned from the mall' and 'common knowledge' claims. As to why defend a man who probably did something, are you serious?

Well no one made a thread about this so.....good job! You didn't elect an accused child molester and you elected a guy who prosecuted KKK members. Although it was only by 1.5% well good for you Alabama~! And Roy Moore can go fuck himself in hell where he belongs~!:toot:


Well said and here here!

I think the Democrats have a lot to be proud of...they won a senate seat in a state where they have virtually no presence. What exactly would you consider dirty politics? The Washington Post reporting on the women accusing him of molesting them? Let me put it this way this bitch has been playing dirty politics FOR a long time. There is evidence. As mentioned above. Doug Jones won and he deserves to be in the Senate. You should know politics is a blood sport. It has been FOR a long time. I say good job for Doug Jones jumping on the molestation accusations. That's what makes a winner. Also we should mention....the woman who was 14,Leigh Corfman justsaid he took off his clothes and touched her on her bra and her underwear and guided her hand to touch him over his underwear.She even says they did not have intercourse.

    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
