While I do not support censorship of Kimmel, lets not pretend that his claims that CK shooter was MAGA had any truth to it.

Kimmel didn't make that claim. He said that MAGA people were scrambling to prove that the killer wasn't one of them. And he was right.
Kimmel also said that Trump was mourning Kirk the way a child mourns a goldfish. He was right about that too. When a reporter asked Agent Orange how he was coping after the death of Kirk* he lasted about ten seconds before he started rambling about his new ballroom.

*A man who Trump publicly described as a friend and being like a son to him.

This is just flat out illegal.

The Trump admin has flat-out murdered people in international waters. Three separate instances now. Firing a political appointee unlawfully is, frankly, weaksauce by comparison. No, it doesn't matter if they were drug smugglers. It's still the US military murdering foreign civilians going about their business outside US territory.

And yes, Venezuela is a signatory to the ICC, for all the good that will do.

Hear hear. I bought a 4090 to play CP2077 with all the bells and whistles turned on, but I could accept that even that couldn't handle absolutely everything set to the maximum if I played at 4K. So, I turned down the ray-tracing a bit and it was fine from day one (honestly I think a lot of the performance issues came from the consoles trying to do too much with too little, but that's by the by; the only problems I had related to quests not triggering and such.)

Needing frame generation turned on at 1440p is just embarrassing. Not that I ever use it; it seems to me that if you have a high enough FPS for frame generation to not look terrible you don't need the extra frames anyway. Perhaps it's just the CDPR engine but frame generation for me reminded me of the days when LCDs ghosted like hell and the pros still stuck with their CRTs.

imagine in 10 years some hyper environmentalists come to power and they decide to fine or cancel people they deem responsible for global warming. So they look wherever they can. Flight records are one place.

ridiculous ?

Yes, ridiculous. Punishment for crimes that weren't crimes at the time (ex post facto) is prohibited in Article 1 of your constitution.
For what's still worth.
