    I have a graphics degree that I never use. But I know damn well that graphics advancements are not smoke and mirrors. The endgame has been the same for decades. All of the new graphic features existed for a long time in movies/TV. Now, we are finally getting those features to render in real time. It’s so damn amazing.

    I game on a 65" OLED from about 2 feet away. So yeah, there is a difference when one cranks the settings.

    But then again, I’m apparently crazy because I’m a cloud gamer. But having the equivalence of a $3,000 PC for $16/month using a $700 laptop is a no brainer. And people saying the picture and lag is terrible is simply not true.

    With that said, I’m happy that it doesn’t matter to you. Because that saves you from having the need to have cutting edge equipment.

    I was at a bar in 2012 when McKayla Maroney botched her vault. I yelled “You suck!”

    The thing is my friend worked there, and it was this restaurant on Capitol Hill in DC. I’m a metalhead, and I look the part. So, I stuck out like a sore thumb.

    I definitely was the guy in this picture to everyone that day.
