What exactly is better about the RTX 3000 line, doc? From what I can see, they have a lower clock rate than the RTX 2000 line. I must be missing something...doc_holliday wrote: ↑Fri Oct 30, 2020 9:02 amdon't buy that. For the same price, you can get an rtx 3070

Re: Linux/Computer Talk
Geforce 780 Ti :shock: That must be quite old now. I remember I used to have a Radeon 9800 (this was around 2003) and I was super proud of it. Now I have a Radeon 5700, which is a decent card but not high end. Good enough for me. I had a Radeon 9550 back in 2004, in my Windows XP computer. The card...

Re: Funny Dream
Same. I find that if I wake up a couple hours before I'm supposed to and go back to sleep, I almost always end up having nearly lucid dreams. If I sleep like a log the whole night through: nothing.

Re: Funny Dream
I've had my share of kinky dreams over the years. I don't believe I've ever woken up with a hot load in my pants because of them, if that's what you're asking.

The Tricky Beans Website
For the uninitiated, Tricky Beans was the original name of Sonata Arctica. I found this years ago but I no longer remember how I found it. It might've been listed in one of their cassette demos. Anyway, here is the Tricky Beans website from 1997 for your viewing pleasure. Sadly, none of the links on...

I did it before and sound powerful as well. For slower songs, I can totally envision no use of drum samples. The drummer should have...
