What do you guys think of the news about Paige being forced to retire now due to the injury from a week or so ago? I think its a pretty ###### situation all around for her, and I hope she can handle it to be honest. Such a crap hand dealt to her overall - maybe she'll be invited to stay around as a trainer or on-air talent for other things.

I refrained from mentioning it as it's still currently unverified, but yeah, rotten luck if it's true. It'd be surreal to see a wrestler younger than me forced into retirement already; I'm only 26 and she's 25. :/ Although technically she has been wrestling all her life; her mum wrestled a match while unknowingly seven month pregnant with her.

 

 

There is another retirement story that hasn't been officially confirmed, but does come from Dave Meltzer, and that's Mark Henry. Obviously not as surprising, since he hasn't wrestled since WrestleMania last year, but still, any excuse to post his fake retirement masterclass...

I'm not a wrestling fan ... however I saw her story on ESPN earlier today.  One would think that the WWE wouldn't script a kick to the back of her neck after her prior injury/surgery.  Very unfortunate for her and her fans.

It was probably something Paige and Sasha Banks agreed on, rather than the guys behind-the-scenes, either before the match or maybe even during it on-the-fly; it was at a live/non-televised show, so presumably the matches aren't as meticulously planned out as they would be on TV or PPV.

Welp, made it almost two whole weeks into 2018 before a "LOLTNA" moment.

Or maybe not.

^^ That's Don Callis, by the way; English colour commentator for NJPW, and now also EVP of Impact along with Scott D'Amore.

    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
    • I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html
    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
