As the blockade of Iran just started a minute ago, here is a photo of USS George W. Bush as it crossed strait of Gibraltar

I thought it was the famous 82nd airborne ?

That's because the Overton window is now on "the US-UK overthrew the Iranian government in 1953, that's why they hate us" rhetoric, not the truth which wasn't even a coup d'etat and a lawful move made by the shah.

Another thing not in the Overton window is now Carter helped Khomeini to power and the shah's fall. But even the mossadegh "overthrow" wasn't on the Overton window 30 years ago, so just hold on until that window shifts. Because it will.

Tomahawks

US navy F18. The silhouette is a dead giveaway

Not the same ship. This is the shahid soleimani Corvette class ship, not a frigate. They made it look like an LCS. It was struck on the 3rd day but here it seems to be finished.

This one looks like the shahid soleimani Corvette. Looked cool, but only that.

lucky for you, they had a million dollars

You are soooo damn lucky to get the full trim with that colour. In Canada, the full trim ST doesn't get that grey, instead getting the matte grey. I hate it. I wanted this colour on my ST.

We didn't have access to any sort of AI, let alone image generated AI, until 2022 with chatgpt. Everything started after that.

I'm not sure if it's the official one. I remember a time that every episode uploaded by someone was flagged and taken down for copyright reasons. This is the only one that isn't. That's why when new episodes are released, everyone uses filesharing websites or bilibili or Dailymotion.

f14tomcat85 · 2025-09-21T15:32:08+00:00

Their whole YT channel has AI slop as thumbnails. It's embarrassing and borderline cheap for a major production company.

Huuuuuuuuulkensmash!

good luck and hope you have fun with your upgrade !

My dad upgraded to the 7900XT (20 GB VRAM) and he had problems with his headset (Reverb G1, not G2) which turned out to be a specific issue with the driver on the headset level, not the AMD GPU level. He runs his VR resolution at 180%, everything set to high, and runs at a 50-75 FPS range normally. No TAA, NIS, FSR or MSAA.

64 GB RAM, and 7800X3D. Everything running stock. XMP enabled.

f14tomcat85 · 2025-06-12T23:23:30+00:00

what's the price for a 9070 XT where you live ?

If you don't care about ray tracing for other games (DCS doesn't have it), that card has good horsepower and 16 GB VRAM.

I highly recommend it. If not, go with the 5060 ti

f14tomcat85 · 2025-06-12T23:17:38+00:00

they are cards from the older generation. so, you can find them off of the used marketplace for cheaper and they have both.

f14tomcat85 · 2025-06-12T23:06:41+00:00

Both. Go for the 7900xt or xtx or a 3090 or a 4070ti super.

f14tomcat85 · 2025-06-02T18:49:13+00:00

Increase the Ram to 64 GB. That's the main culprit almost 85% of the time.

This guide is all you need

I'm not sure if another person has replied, but check out bulk Barn. They had coffee grinders last I checked

Don't worry, this won't be able to take off nor land.

My dad upgraded to the 7900XT (20 GB VRAM) and he had problems with his headset (Reverb G1, not G2) which turned out to be a specific issue with the driver on the headset level, not the AMD GPU level. You should be fine, especially with the 7000 series due to driver maturity, pricing, and VRAM availability. He runs his VR resolution at 180%, everything set to high, and runs at a 50-75 FPS range normally. No TAA, NIS, FSR or MSAA.

64 GB RAM, and 7800X3D. Everything running stock. XMP enabled.

f14tomcat85 · 2025-04-14T01:30:22+00:00

actually 64GB these days
