Used em for nearly 20 years but their newer stuff has some reduced build quality in favour of aesthetics. The model I bought had particularly bad coil whine (as did it's RMA replacement) so I shifted from them.
Year 1066 problems just aren't as relevant in today's political and social climate. William of Orange totally would have had a sick sword themed gaming PC though
Probably not. They were in use for a much longer time, but population sizes and army sizes were much smaller during those times. Also, they are less deadly.
It's a motherboard aimed at higher end fps clan play, it's a relevant object on a relevant object.
So I say again, rpg themed system with a sword on it. Offensive?
Cars and drugs on a GTA themed system. Offensive?
I think you're just picking something benign to be upset about in the most safe time in human history. Statistically you were more likely to be murdered in 1950 before the gun worship culture was as prevalent then today. Teach, compassion, life skills and critical thinking, fear mongering over inanimates isn't particularly useful.
Go tell people in third world countries or first Nations that guns have made their life safer than any other time in history and see what they have to say about that.
And yeah, a drug themed motherboard would be fucking offensive, what an idiotic question!
Historically there is and statistically gun violence is lower now than ever before hence no epidemic. It's just what you see most on the news because that's how they hold your attention and make their money.
They'd agree.
How? You don't have to buy it. I'm sure you own some shit other people find offensive, what of it?
While 2021 saw the highest total number of gun deaths in the U.S., this statistic does not take into account the nation’s growing population. On a per capita basis, there were 14.6 gun deaths per 100,000 people in 2021 – the highest rate since the early 1990s, but still well below the peak of 16.3 gun deaths per 100,000 people in 1974.
Highest since the early 1990s, doesn't sound like it's lower than ever before to me, right?
