I always find it funny how unoptimized some games are. I've been replaying Deus Ex: Human Revolution lately and noticed that the VRAM usage hasn't gone over 1975 MB so far. This is a game from 2011 but is a first person game with a decent amount going on and that I have at 2560x1440, with all settings and AA maxed. Now the funny part is that I have noticed several 2D sidescrollers and even some visual novels these days that use more VRAM than that. It isn't like i'm hurting for VRAM, I have 16GB, it just made me chuckle and shake my head.

I got a ThinkPad T430 laptop in on trade in. Great condition except for the battery.

Any recommendations for battery replacement? Or "whatever is available on ebay" the go-to solution?

I often look for OEM batteries, but the T430 is getting to be a bit aged, so OEM batteries may not last very long either.

I usually go to Battery Canada. Don't let the name fool you, they ship to the United States as well according to their site. I go to Ebay when I have to but try to avoid it.

This one is all about the privacy and security concerns, content moderation practices, algorithmic influences, complaint mechanisms, and the regulatory environment of app stores, and stuff.
