  What exactly makes apple pie american?
I'm pretty sure it was not invented there and the ingredients are anything but American.

Because it's 'Murican. Simple as that.

We totally grow apples and wheat and stuff here in America! So the ingredients are all American in American pies. :D

...just like most things we produce?
 
It's American because we claim it to be America. That's how America works. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go get some Freedom Fries.

Same goes for hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. All originated elsewhere but got really popular here in America I guess?
 
What the heck does NVIDIA do for their graphic cards naming anyway?
What is GT vs GTX?
e.g. GT 650 M vs GTX 770

Basically GTX>GT. That's all there is too it. Back in the day Nvidia used to have the same model number card with a gtx and gt version, gt was cheaper but gtx had better performance and was pricier. 

Dear god somebody help me I bought another Android Wear smartwatch :O

I'm going to remind you even after my death

 
It's too...buttery and cute
Yup yup, indeed I did! There was an old-timer Head-Fier who had the album art of Kaleidoscope for their profile pic. I had no idea who DJ Okawari was until this year though so only now does it make sense. XD
Might have been MorbidToaster?

  Oh boy... FitEar's using color... 

Still not buying :xf_mad:
 
Tried to find DJ Okawari's music in the nearby libraries and they didn't have anything. T_T

Had a very similar experience a few days ago.
Was looking for a copy of Behemoth's The Satanist in my local YMCA second-hand music store.
Believe it or not, but they did not have the album!
And I thought I was looking in the right place...

  Incidentally, Wakaba Girl this season as well.

e.g. GT 650 M vs GTX 770

M is mobile

Witcher 3 recommends the GTX 770 and a GTX 660 is the minimum. Notebook Check only has data for the GTX 770 M, GTX 660 Ti and GTX 660 M...
http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-770M.88995.0.html

My MacBook has a GT 650 M. Obviously I don't expect it to run Witcher 3 properly but I'm wondering how well it will run at low graphics everything, probably 720p. Evolve ran at around 32 FPS with low graphics everything and 720p; the specs recommend a GTX 560 and Notebook Check only has the GTX 560 M...

Notebookcheck's benchmark page also shows Desktop GPUs. It's one of the filters.

Ah okay, that makes sense, kinda.

Not actively though! Flower Dance has only been mentioned a few times.

True, but the GTX 770, GTX 660, and GTX 560 are all not listed.

What does the "Ti" designate? It's not the same as the non Ti, is it?

Ok i will try to explain it as simply as I can

Nvidia's naming scheme is actually pretty logical actually.

GTX is the higher end of the Geforce lineup, like for example GTX970,GTX660. Adding a Ti at the back means it is a more powerful variant of the card, but less powerful than the one with the bigger number (e.g GTX560Ti is less powerful than the GTX570 and more powerful than the GTX560).
GT cards are low end cards, like say GT510, GT640 etc

Now this is to differentiate the lineup of the generation between high end and low end.

And then comes the mobile lineup. Expect the mobile versions to be 1-3 notches lower than the desktop version. Like for the older 680M, it is about 3 notches below the 680, so it is about as powerful as a desktop GTX660. Expect your GT650M to have the power of a GT630, or probably the power of a 8800GTX/HD5750/R7 250

Its really not bad, in fact its as useful if not more useful than an Apple watch for half the price :p

But how about compared to Pebble Time? Pebble Time's battery life massacres all smartwatches' battery lives. I helped a customer last week who had one and it looked freaking awesome with the colour e-ink display. It's pretty amazing to see in-person.

Ah, thanks for that! That does actually make a lot more sense now.

I'll probably not buy Witcher 3 right now then since this looks pathetic.

Yeah Witcher 3 is pretty demanding game
 
lower end GPUs would really struggle with it lol
