Eternal question: Nvidia vs AMD

Hardware

Will be buying a desktop (parts to put together myself with my son).
The eternal question is Nvidia vs AMD.

Also looking at CPU and graphics card vs Integrated.

I don't need AMAZING GRAPHICS QUALITY or blazing speed. What i want is good graphics that are stable and can play some of the games like Battletech, Planetary Annihilation. Nothing amazing, but stable.

Looking more at AMD after some looking, but want it to be OOTB and STABLE.

Anyone have any ideas and luck?

Who will Trump blame: my guess is Biden et al

Trump is in the hospital: should he live, who will he blame ('cos, you know, it ain't HIS fault)? (Or is the question: "Should he live?")

We all know Trump won't get a clue and say, "Hey, I REALLY messed this up and Biden et al were correct", so who will he blame for getting sick and how will he explain the situation?

My guess is, he will blame Biden's team for giving it to him during the debate through a 'seeding the air' or some such nonsense (I don't follow American politics THAT closely). It can't be his team who is to blame, so it has to be the Left who did something bad: maybe getting someone with Covid to lick the toilet handle in Trumps bathroom or other nonsense.

Who will he blame? How will his getting sick be explained? Will he actually throw someone from his own team under the bus???
Stay tuned: same Bat Time, same Bat Channel.

Ahhhh! Here we go: blame other for your own stupidity. Classic classy.

Donald Trump now says it's Patriotic to wear a mask.

THIS is not leadership. This is not leadership and this is not leading. This is a little boy getting spanked and trying to make it look like it was his idea the whole time.
This man should not be leading any country. He's not a manager: he's a kidager (yes...i just stole from Spongebob).

Why Dark Matter is wrong

My take on Dark Matter:

An invisible man opens a door and Albert Einstein says the door was pulled open.
Well, that Albert, he's a smart guy and all initial reports decide he's right: the door was pulled open, so all of 'Door Science' teaches the door was pulled open.

Then, the Door is looked at more closely and the stress fractures on the door suggest maybe the door WASN'T pulled open.

Well..... everyone who has built their career around the door being pulled open rally round and come up with ideas why the stress fractures DO support the door being pulled open. They come up with all kinds of ideas that evolve over time and one of the ideas evolves into 'the correct answer'.

Except it's not.

The door wasn't pulled open, it was PUSHED open, and that's why the stress fractures are wrong.

Dark Matter is an idea supporting why the stress fractures support GR(pull). Except GR is wrong: it just looks correct.

We should start looking for the Push theory and stop supporting the Pull theory.

The Iowa Democrats should just decide to make Trump their party leader and get this troublesome ballot counting over, lol.

What. A. Cock-up!
