    Listen here: http://www.media-server.com/m/acs/c2968ea7ed9b70bb475765264c1a9d9e Hopefully they'll have some figures to tell us about Ryzen sales. Analyst estimates are that AMD made money this quarter, so that's good. I hope they exceeded all expectations.

    The Goldbergs

    Does anyone else watch this show? I get a very "Wonder Years in the 80s" vibe, but waaaaay more funny. I sometimes catch myself laughing so often that I start to think "there's no way this show is this funny, there's something wrong with my sense of humor" but nope, it's great.
