    Pimax reveals new range of VR headsets and accessories

    They kinda bury the lede by putting "budget-friendly" in front of "high-end." You can probably get some form of VR headset used for around that price, but you can't expect two >4K displays with wide FoV and no SDE, along with the custom lenses to accommodate them for that price. Same deal with...

    Rumor Keanu Reeves is reportedly voicing Shadow in Sonic the Hedgehog 3

    Missed opportunity if the writers don't have him say, "no YOU'RE breathtaking" at some point. Can even say it to a gun or a motorcycle.

    SEGA officially labels 2024 as the "Fearless: Year of Shadow"

    Ah, beat me to it. Pretty crazy that Sonic himself has the least famous voice actor between him, Knuckles, and Shadow. Not that I dislike Ben Schwartz, he's great.

    Iran launches retaliatory attack against Israel

    Yo, my post was NOT off-topic. Per Mike Johnson, MAGA wants the US to commit to a more direct role in retaliation against Iran. Meet the new GOP, same as the old warmongering GOP.

    Iran launches retaliatory attack against Israel

    Maybe true, but they're both deserving of any and all insults they receive.

    Iran launches retaliatory attack against Israel

    Previous guy would've given Putin a handy while he invaded Ukraine and would now be sending US troops to die in Iran on Netanyahu's behalf. Hell, he tried to start a war against Iran AFTER losing the 2020 election. Of course a braindead neocon would believe that GWB 2.0 could make everything...

    Iran launches retaliatory attack against Israel

    Netanyahu wants to drag the entire region in to perpetual war, all just to keep himself in power. Doesn't care how many people have to die, or even that he might spark WW3 in the process. Madman has to be reined in.

    What would you do if you won the lottery?

    Invest about a third or a fourth of it in an Index fund. Buy a big house (but not TOO big) in one payment, preferably with a hot tub and a pool. Install a two-lane bowling alley in its own room, an arcade room, and a pickleball court outside. Buy a Honda electric car and/or truck. Invite...

    Narrative driving game 'Heading Out' gets gameplay trailer

    Interesting mix of mechanics, seems to be roguelite-ish.

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    Criminalizing safe methods of abortion is bad enough on its own, but what really pushes this particular law over the line into draconian territory is the lack of exceptions for rape and incest. Post-Roe, there have already been several cases of girls aged between ten and twelve years old who...

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    So if I was a political consultant, I'd recommend any/all parties avoid voicing support for draconian laws which pre-date the end of the Civil War. Opposition to enforcement of such laws is the de-facto common sense position, and with this vote, Republicans in Arizona were going out of their...

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    Was already fairly purple, too bad Kyrsten Sinema has been such a disappointment/sellout.

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    Confederates had lost effective control of it by July 1862, but the area controlled by the Union only covered about half of Arizona as we know it today. The Civil War was ongoing until May of 1865, and so the confederacy was still claiming ownership of the territory until that time.

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    Definitely one that would've been updated at least once during the 1900s. Arizona was a confederate territory from 1861 to 1865, not a US territory. Seems pretty relevant.

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    Laws that pre-date statehood and the greater US don't remain active, there are lots of stupid ones on the books. If it was already active, Republicans wouldn't have needed to hold a vote on its restoration.

    Arizona supreme court brings back 1864 Abortion ruling

    Arizona wasn't even a state when this law was first enacted. Thankfully Arizona's AG, a Democrat who won her election by less than 300 votes, has already declared she won't be enforcing it. Elections have consequences far beyond just president.

    ESG scores

    Seems like kind of a non-issue since that's the same thing PR firms have been doing since always. Make big corpos seem like they give a damn so that they don't actually have take actions which prove that they do.

    Fallout TV series seemingly renewed for second season; season one will now release tomorrow

    Tax incentives certainly don't guarantee anything in terms of a show's quality, but giving Walton Goggins a lot of screen time is a surefire way to get me invested in it. He manages to one-up even Danny McBride in Vice Principals and The Righteous Gemstones.

    OK, so we are all here because at the core, we are GAMERS. Which consoles do you currently use? I'd like EVERYBODY HERE to chime in!

    Not that we needed more proof, but this thread demonstrates how pirates tend to spend more money on consoles and games than average.

    What do yall think about the ages of senators and Congress people?

    Yep, just take a look at Lauren (Beetlejuice) Boebert, Matt (Pedo) Gaetz, and Margarine Trailer Grease. Some of the worst people this country has to offer, and also some of youngest in Congress. Younger doesn't necessarily mean smarter or more ethical.
