I would agree that's a mistake. I would go with the first 3-4 episodes.

Right now I'm using the Chase Sapphire Preferred, AMEX Blue Cash Everyday, and I have an Amazon card. Edit: I wonder how all this will play out a year from now when we start feeling the full effects of the rate increases the Fed has done so far, not to mention the additional ones yet to come!

I used to doubt AMD on this stuff, but FSR 2 showed AMD is running 6-12 months beyond Nvidia on their hardware agnostic solutions that Nvidia puts out for certain pieces of hardware. Maybe this time AMD will just not have anything to compete, but I really doubt it since AMD has a lot more money than they did even 3 years ago.

If one can purchase the 4090 for MSRP, I don't see the point of the 4080 at $1200.

I don't see why DLSS 3 is such a big deal if AMD is going to have a solution next year with frame generation. Nvidia has AMD completely beat on ray tracing and if you do any extra AI machine learning productivity on the side. I'm waiting for AMD's 7800 chip uncut for myself. I only want to drive 1440p 144hz. Hopefully I can get one for $700.

I'll give it a shot if the reviews are halfway decent. I love high fantasy animation.

‘Andor’ to Become First Disney+ Star Wars Show to Air on ABC WWW.HOLLYWOODREPORTER.COM Disney is giving the acclaimed Diego Luna drama an unprecedented cross-platform holiday rollout across ABC, FX, Freeform and Hulu.

These prices from Nvidia and AMD are absurd. Wasn't the 3080's MSRP $700 and now it's $1200? AMD seems "cheap" at $999 because Nvidia's 3080 is so overpriced that it's nearly double what it was last cycle.

Do you think courts will use that to declare certain marriages invalid and thus not applicable to the bill?

Seems good to me. Get it done.

Democrat wins Washington swing district in major blow to Trump and GOP - POLITICO WWW.POLITICO.COM The district has been held by Republicans since 2011. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/democrat-marie-gluesenkamp-perez-defeats-republican-joe-kent-in-wa-house-race/ My hero. She took down a complete maga sleeze that would go on Tucker and Bannon’s shows. The odds were 2 in 100 for her to win according to 538, but with thin polling.

Democrats keep the Senate - POLITICO WWW.POLITICO.COM Catherine Cortez Masto's win delivered a one-two punch for Democrats in Nevada and Arizona, a pair of battleground states that Republicans contested fiercely. Nice to see the first Politico article on it!

The Texas Democratic Party pretty much ignored 2 of the 4 main issues poll after poll showed Texans were concerned about which were the border and inflation/the economy. They went all in on abortion, the grid, and school shootings. But Abbott successfully painted Beto as weak on the border and Democrats barely fought back. There were no seriously funded commercials with Democratic solutions to the border or inflation. Zip. They just ignored it so independents ignored them. No one believes Beto anymore after he defined himself in a primary if he says he is going to be tough on the border. A winning Texas democrat needs to be a blank slate and they will have to sound different than a typical national democrat. Texas Democrats need a firm message on the border and the economy. Inflation will go away eventually with the Fed taking action, so figure it out and stop losing.

Bring on the judges Biden!

What are the chances of Nevada goes red?

I was really disappointed with the results for marijuana legalization this election. Missouri was the only real consequential win. South Dakota failed after winning 2 years earlier and Arkansas was way off. They need to try again in 2024. A sweep would have sent a strong message to republicans. It was neat to see some local action in Texas, the board’s favorite state to talk about! Five Texas cities vote to decriminalize having small amounts of marij… WWW.TEXASTRIBUNE.ORG Voters in Denton, San Marcos, Killeen, Elgin and Harker Heights overwhelmingly supported the local ballot propositions to decriminalize low-level possession. These moves followed Austin voters’...

I know a Trump zealot that was aware of this and the fact these trump candidates lost has him questioning his support for Trump!! This is a big deal. This guy would have marched on the capital had he been there. It was still a horrible idea and should never be done again, but between the vote in Florida and these results, Trump is losing some support amongst the GOP. I don’t think it’ll be enough, but I’ll take it.

Texas turnout didn’t seem motivated by abortion. Seems like Abbott successfully made Beto a radical and the border was a huge issue. Texas has a red wall and it’s West Texas rural counties.

Yes that’s a other good recent example aside from Arizona.

It lost in Arizona in 2016 and then came back and won in 2020. Anyway it looks like marijuana is losing in other red states this year as well. I read that there has been some frustration amongst marijuana reform organizations operating state campaigns ; they claim the money is flowing to congressional lobbying rather than state efforts. It may be too early to call any initiatives besides Maryland.

Yep! Spread the word. I go out of my way to talk about Andor since I would like more of this type of Star Wars in the future.

Jason didn't get his hockey mask until 3. I was thinking they could use the ack over his head like they did in part 2, but I guess that's no longer necessary.

Beto could win. He came close in more than one high quality poll amongst registered voters. But the likely voter models would have to be WAY OFF for him to pull this off. It's very unlikely. I'm expecting Abbott, Patrick, and Paxton to dominate with red pickups in the state legislature. I hope I'm shocked! Republicans take the house. I have no idea what happens in the senate, but I have a feeling Dems will hold.
