I have built with MSI MBs and video cards over the years. In my limited experience, they have been as good as ASUS and Gigabyte. Those 3 brands have always been my gold standards.

The Soviet answers are funny, because they lasted less than 80 years and never truly projected any naval power (certainly the combined fleet of NATO nations was far superior).

It's Britain and it isn't even close (although I probably put the Spanish second). The Royal Navy was their ultimate trump card.
The Spaniards got the early lead, but were too exploitative and short-sighted. Pound-for-pound, the Dutch did very well (as did the Portuguese). The French had some ...

Not a "spear", that was a clean tackle all around. He did leave his feet, but shoulder initiated contact, and not to the head/neck of protestor.

re: What's your favorite cheap guitar ?
Posted by Ace Midnight on 4/23/24 at 1:54 pm
Ibanez and Yamaha are great values across the board.
Ovation has some insane values in their international line, if you like the way they make guitars (which I do).
And, Seagull, of course.
As opposed to "cheap", my pick for "best value" is probably a Yamaha Pacifica....

re: The Intifada Comes to America
Posted by Ace Midnight on 4/23/24 at 1:43 pm
I've been saying this for over a decade - even back to the years I was in uniform - America has fallen. But, as America was this massive, incredibly powerful leviathan, it is taking some years for the corpse to hit the ground.
But, the "Great Thud" is coming, of that I have little doubt....

The implication is that Specter was compromised and would have done as he was tol...
