Not to defend him (can't really stand his videos at all) but he's not a journalist. He's just a freelance spokesman for products that will sponsor him.
I've got it on ultra settings and have never noticed a frame rate drop. The game is around 4 years old and has a number of bugs, Valve kind of just abandoned it despite it being one of the flagship VR experiences. The software not recognizing a CPU that came out 2 years after launch and perhaps a good six months since it's been updated isn't a huge surprise.
I think it's just because it's not an Nvidia card the game is freaking out. Game runs just fine.

I'm not against renewables but utilizing them as our main source of energy just is not practical for long term, there are serious ecological issues that have been sidelined because of global warming/climate change. Things like rooftop solar only become viable in low density housing, but low density housing is also not good use of land.
I got the 24gb model last August. Laugh a little Everytime I boot up half-life alyx and the game says not enough vram
I don't know to laugh or cry when I see peole quote the thousands of years waste storage of nuclear. That's never been a thing, and never will be.
Land usage is what makes nuclear the most ecologically sound solution. Solar and wind play their part. But for every acre of land, nuclear tops the chart of power produced per year. And when you're trying to sate the demand of high density housing and businesses in cities, energy density becomes important. Low carbon footprint is great for solar and wind but if you're also displacing ecosytems that would otherwise be sucking up carbon, its not as environmentally friendly as we'd like.
If you calculate the cost of nuclear and include that you need to store the waste for thousands of years i
This hasn't been true for decades.
High Level Nuclear waste, aka spent fuel, can be run through breeder reactors or other new gen types to drastically reduce their radioactive half-life to decades and theoretically years with designs proposed in the last few years. Only reason reactors don't do this is lack of funding and demand for such things, the amount of high level waste produced is miniscule per year. And there are theories proposed already that could reduce ot further but nuclear phobia pushed by the oil lobby prevents proper funding and RnD to properly push those advancements to production.
Yeah it was billed as some Tom Cruise slock like it was some video game movie. Heavy on the cgi but pretty good far as near future sci-fi goes especially with time travel.
According to Russia, there is no War. Half a million Russian citizens died in a special operation.
Not stupid as you think if its being used as a tunnel for overseas stations to have a clear route to send encrypted traffic.
Its also a training base so you goy that going, but that's definitely not enough to compare to the ops dept.
Unknown technology! Ape noises.
This is how dictators exist. The valuables they are stealing from their country get reinvested not just to their personal enrichment but also enriching those people key to keeping them in power, from bodyguard to security departments that spend most of their time monitoring citizens for wrong think.
It would be a mistake to send this amount of material. We should double the shipment. Hell, triple it.
DS9 did have a few battles take advantage of 3D space but not to the degree or time WoK gives it. Sisco using the mirror-verse Defiant against Mirror Worfs Neg'Vhar. Comes to mind, or how the Klingons in general would 'dive' onto Dominion ships from odd angles during set piece battles.
Can't tell if this comic just doesn't get it or put zero thought into it. And there is several examples throughout the various series where two ships don't align to each other.
There are several reasons why the ships would always face each other, from common courtesy to defensive posturing.
When two ships face each other its like an nonverbal way of saying "we see you" or "you have our attention". Orientation also plays apart in this. Of course there is no real reason to orient so both ships face "up" thanks to artificial gravity, but it's also something that could be seen as polite and etiquette as getting on the same level as the other meeting them half way.
For defensive purposes, it also makes sense to nose towards a potential threat or adversary as within star trek the shields are strongest at the front (thanks to deflectors and navigational shielding) as well as the best/most accurate sensors to get a good reading. Additionally the forward arc of the ship will likely have the most overlapping weapon arcs, especially for ships like klingon bird of preys with fixed disruptor cannons facing forwards. This posture also tends to keep primary engineering, where the reactor/warp core is situated, obscured and defended, so if the ship wants to make a swift retreat their primary means of doing so is less likely to be damaged or disabled, and if you engage an FTL retreat towards a foes rear that foe needs to turn about and reorient themsevles to give chase, giving more time for the retreating party to take evasive action and avoid further intercepts.
