Laptop upgrades can cost a pretty penny, depending on the features you’re after. If you’re a work professional or a student looking to upgrade their everyday machine, you need a model with a good display, a comfortable keyboard, a muscular processor, plus at least 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD.

Jim Ward was perhaps more recently most recognized as a co-host on the nationally syndicated talk radio program, The Stephanie Miller Show, but to video games players it’s almost certainly Captain Qwark who would first come to mind. The hilarious character, all bravado and little talent, was so deftly performed by Ward such that he was just likable enough…

Those include gutting funding for research, including…
