While I may be inclined to agree that videos like these shouldn't be shared I can't help but to strongly disagree with the rest. Killing armed enemy combatants is not a murder. He has a rifle on his back and is clearly not surrendering. What do you propose that Ukrainians should do, let themselves and their families be killed because he was alone?

And no military gain from killing an invader? You must be joking, right? How else are they meant to defend themselves if not by taking out the enemy?

Seems like they either have inconsistent quality or it went down over time. My 6-7 years old g502 is from a mechanical standpoint in perfect shape, I've just worn out the rubber sides and had to replace its feet once. I'd even say it's seeing fairly heavy use considering I use it for both work and gaming.

By now there are several generations of 502's, from what I've seen online the earlier ones used more durable switches. I've used Proteus spectrum myself for close to 8 years and all buttons still work fine. And if say it was used quite heavily, both for gaming and WHF. I've only replaced it now because it was ugly and the rubber on the sides is gone completely in some spots.

Nvidia really doesn't seem to care about gaming GPUs anymore — the company won't even bother to break down graphics sales in its big investor reports

Tbh the issue is price, newer cards are both quite a bit more powerful and power efficient. Went from 1080 to 3070 ti and now 5070 ti and each upgrade was a significant step up. Going straight from 1080 to my current card would be an insane jump. BTW this is based on performance I've seen in games, not benchmarks.

Gunman Who Shot Slovak PM Linked to Pro-Russian Extremist Group

It says in the article that his comments in closed meetings with Ukraine were conciliatory and that his pro-russian comments were for his domestic audience.

That's because he is hoping to help with rebuilding of Ukraine (because money). At home he is shit talking them, saying they should negotiate, stop fighting and cede territory to Russia all the while enabling local arms companies to export weapons (because that brings money again).
