Resolution question.

I am going to attempt to explain this. I'm pretty darn good at puter stuff, but this has me baffled.

I just purchased and installed a new computer and monitor. The graphics card is a RTX 3070 and the monitor is a Benq PD2700U.

When I go to display properties(and the Nvidia settings), it shows the recommended resolution as 3840 x 2160, which is where it is set.
But, when I go to Speccy, my current and working resolution shows up as 1920 x 1080.

Which am I actually seeing?

Thanks

Where is Kyle Rittenhouse? We still don't know.

Prosecutors seeking to increase Kyle Rittenhouse’s $2 million bond said Thursday that the ability of the Kenosha, Wisc., shooter to “roam freely” before trial is “extremely rare for an accused murderer” and argued his address should be made public. But his defense attorneys argue that housing Rittenhouse in a secret safe house is necessary to protect his life.

Richards, who did not respond to requests for comment, has not denied in court filings that Rittenhouse failed to alert the court to his new address until the issue spilled out into public view. He instead cited threats and said his client has remained in constant touch with his attorneys throughout the process.

Asked to provide copies of the threats, Pierce said he could not immediately produce them because “it would take days to organize,” adding that they are spread over Facebook, Twitter, email and voice-mail messages on multiple devices of different parties.

“I wouldn’t even know where to start,” he said. He characterized the messages as threatening “nasty and serious bodily harm.”

My take on this morning's vote

Every RepuQ Senator that voted FOR tax cuts for billionaires, also voted to NOT help Americans who desperately need it. Let's use it against them.

Got my 1st vaccine shot today even though I don't qualify

How? My wife had an appointment at 8:15. I asked if they take walk-ins at the end of the day to account for the people who didn't show up for appointments. They said yes and to be back at 12:30.
I was there at noon, and got my shot within 30 minutes.
Wifey and I are very happy. We go back on the 19th to get our second.

If you don't qualify and want the shot, you might try it.

New Steven Wilson "Man of the People"



"MAN OF THE PEOPLE is about the person who stands behind the disgraced politician, the religious leader that’s been caught in a sex scandal. The wife, the girlfriend, the husband, the partner, whoever is the family, the children—the people that stand behind these figures that are disgraceful. The collateral damage. I pity these people sometimes." - SW

Breaking: Curt Schilling is a dick

After not being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame, he writes this letter.

"I will not participate in the final year of voting. I am requesting to be removed from the ballot. I’ll defer to the veterans committee and men whose opinions actually matter and who are in a position to actually judge a player. I don’t think I’m a hall of famer as I’ve often stated but if former players think I am then I’ll accept that with honor."


Booooooooo Hooooooooooooooo you fucking prick. If you don't think you are a HOFer, why should you care?

FUCK YOU!!
