Bro you wanna talk about itty bitty living space. Mah boy NDGT (Neil deGrasse Tyson) on Cosmos via Netflix just informed me that there are more atoms in mah eye than there are stars in the known universe. Like a billion, billion, billion atoms or somthing like that. Intel ain't got ish on me.

My timing is on fire these days. For a while I would check every other day for news about the Nvidia Maxwell GPU's. Until today I hadn't bothered with it for something like 4 or 5 months. Decided to search for it this morning and found out Nvidia revealed two new Maxwell GPU's yesterday.

Nvidia announces GTX 980 and GTX 970 "Maxwell" graphics cards for $550 and $329: here are their new features | PC Gamer (http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/09/19/nvidia-announces-gtx-980-and-gtx-970-maxwell-graphics-cards-for-550-and-329-here-are-their-new-features/)

Certainly don't need them by any stretch yet I must have them.
