Yeah the NL East is going to be killer this year. The Phillies, who seemed dead in the water have gone on a surge and now there's 1.5 games between first and last. Should be some great inter-division games. Of course that means that they're going to beat each oher up so much that they'll probably only get one team in. You can forget the wild-card coming out of there. Should be an entertaining, and gut-wrenching if you're a fan of one of these teams, season. Just as proof: The Mets can finish today in first OR last after the double-header against the Giants. Insanse  :omg:

I can't believe my eyes the last two weeks. The Phillies have been 8-2 in their last 10 games I believe. They were 5 or 6 games back just a week and a half ago, and now they're a contender.

:yes:

Whoa, you said it. The Nationals are looking pretty good right now. All of the teams in the NL East are gonna be fun to watch.

Yep, they're on fire.

Dont forget us Canadians. The Blue Jays are doing pretty good this year. Halladay is, in my opinion, the top pitcher in the MLB right now. Tonight he just finished his 5th, I tihnk it was whole game. Next closest is a bunch of guys at 2. I know Im keeping my eye on them.

Gagne's season might be over. To go from Cy Young winner two years ago to all these injuries so quickly must suck. What a rapid descent. The guy was so dominant with the 84 consecutive saves record streak and he was working on another one with 18 consecutive. Hope he can come back if he has this surgery.

holy crap! yanks were down 10 - 2 and are now up 20 - 11 as I speak. 13 runs in one inning including back to back to back homeruns.

It's the Devil Rays. They should've been doing this to them all season, not getting swept earlier. Sorry just couldn't let you get too excited :p

WOW! What a game... I was thinking back in the fourth inning that the game was over and the Yanks come back like old times :happy:

No matter the team, 13 runs in one inning is unreal.

Indeed. I would even have to congratulate Boston if they did that :yes:

yeah i was watching... its exciting, but i feel absolutely terrible for that pitcher and the devil rays... i was in their position once and it does not feel good. i wish the yankees would do this to boston or another good team...

i'd rather see the yankees lose a good game to the devil rays then win a game like this.

I'm done going to Pirates games. I'm 0/3. I saw them lose to the Braves, Nationals, and someone else. They win tonight when I have to work and can't go. WHAT IS UP WITH THIS.

    • Gf needed a new Surface and was looking at a Surface Laptop because of the Snapdragon. Seeing as it was a two year old chip she just decided to get a Lenovo Yoga 2 in 1 instead. Personally this Surface Ultra Cassis reminds me a bit of Razor. It would be interesting if it could handle proper gaming and be 17 inch.
    • No idea, frankly, I'm not into minimum requirements gaming, but it would be an interesting test to find out. Also, I just have to point out that it wasn't my intention to downplay the performance of DXVK on Linux or Linux gaming in general (despite my own experience being a bit of a mixed bag). I just thought it would be good to point out that DXVK is not Linux exclusive and that you can benefit from using it even in Windows.
    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.
