I'm currently running this card in my HTPC:

Palit PCI-E GTX1050TI StormX 4 GB 128-Bit D/3DP/HDMI

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01M2ZC61B/

Our TV is on it's last legs and I would like to upgrade so am considering getting a new 4k TV (current is 1080p over standard hdmi and about 10 years old...). However, I have pretty much never looked at anything even remotely related to 4k.

What do I need to look out for? Can I still maintain 60fps/hertz (at least in the OS)? Do people have any recommendations for screens (up to about £600). I'm in the UK.

I've got a salvaged 120gb SSD, 8gb RAM, 750ti and processor to build a HTPC with.

The trouble is the processor is a i3-2120 which seems to have some real issues with compatibility issues in terms of finding Mini-ITX boards.

I've only really been able to find this:

and

And reading around online does nothing to inspire confidence about these random-brand motherboards....

Any advice?

r/Norse•

I don't of how many it will be of interest to but there was a game just recently release called Hellblade that features lots of Norse/Germanic mythology. You follow a Celtic warrior as they experience PTSD/Psychosis/Schizophrenia that manifests around experiences of Viking raiders.

It's probably as close to an "accurate" account of the source material as anyone is likely to get in a mainstream game for quite some time and honestly I loved the way they handled it. It's very hands-off leaving most of everything up to a good deal of interpretation. The myths presented themselves might be a little inaccurate here and there; I'd compare it to Gaiman's Norse Mythology. Visually, I felt like they

r/asatru•

Over the last few years I've been drawn ever more strongly to Asatru. It has reshaped how I've thought about myself and my relationship to my family and, I hope, made me a better father and husband. I wanted to extend this outwards.

With that in mind, notions of ancestor worship and respect seem sensible and desirable. I began tracking my family tree and reaching out to family members to establish more about my family's history.

One familial line: fantastic, really interesting, good people.

The rest: without getting into the detail; they were not good people. I'm not talking politics or beliefs but rather specific actions I would find hard to forgive. In short, dishonourable.

All I did was lift add them to a format that makes it easier for subscribe to them. Descriptions of each date are in the description.

I've set a default reminder email for all events and I'm not sure if that also gets imported with these addresses but you can change global notification settings on the calendar settings in googl

r/books•

I read a lot and make notes or marks on pretty much every book I read.

I do something I think a lot of people think is terrible: I fold page corners.

As I read fiction I fold corners of pages I loved. In non-fiction I fold as I go then I write up my own contents page at the front when I'm done so I can go back to the parts I might want to cite or look into in more detail later on.

However, for ease of access/time-constraints I'm reading progressively more e/audio-books. I'll typically get paper or hardback copies too if I really enjoyed it for reference and to have on the shelf.


I cannot for the life of me find a simple system for notes in this context. In ebooks I
