    Survival Game SCUM Surpasses the 1 Million Sales Milestone

    I've watched some streamers play it. It looks fun. It reminds me of DayZ big time. Almost a spiritual successor to DayZ. If you have a regular group of friends it appears to be a blast. Just like in DayZ playing it solo would get a bit boring IMHO.

    Verizon Rolls Out 5G to Select Cities

    I wonder what the latency and jitter numbers looks like on this service. Could be a good backup connection for office networks if i can get static IP on it.

    Study Claims A Quarter of Facebook Users Uninstalled the App

    The mobile browser version seems good enough and use FB Messenger if you need to contact anyone. I'm not a heavy FB user so that makes sense why it works for me. As for the younger generation it seems they're using competition since FB is for old people now. :)

    A Majority of U.S. Teens are Taking Steps to Limit Smartphone and Social Media Use

    ....or all the teens are trolling the survey?? :) Seriously the majority could be getting bored after years of social media and phones. They've just moved onto playing Nintendo Switches.

    Sci-Fi Series From George R.R. Martin Coming to SyFy This Fall

    I'll give it a shot since trailers never give series shows justice. Honestly I'm glad that Amazon picked up the Expanse. SYFY doesn't seem to know a good series when they've got one. If this series is any good SYFY will drop it after a couple series and one of the streamers will pick it up...

    Senate Wants Emergency Alerts to go Out Through Netflix, Spotify, etc.

    Privacy invasion foil hat wearing aspects aside it's a good idea. The wireless carriers being the primary need of usage. Netflix, Spotify and other strictly IP based systems won't be 100% reliable anytime soon. Hell do a whois search on public IPs for residential ISPs. I've had it tell me my...

    Astro Gaming A50 Wireless Headset & Base Station Review @ [H]

    Thanks for this review. I've heard mostly good comments from people online who own the A40s. I'd love to see a review on the SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless as well. Around the same ballpark as the A50. Overall I've been happy with my Arctis 5 but I've been itching to try wireless again...

    Hackers Gonna Hac....uh Get Stoned

    As someone who has previously worked for the Department of State it's not the only reason the FBI can't find qualified cyber-security staff. Many of the departments contract our their IT Services to private firms anyway. The FBI will be forced to contract out their work to private cyber security...

    Late Night Hunt Showdown Streaming

    I like the concept of having the PVE elements with PVP. Hopefully the balancing is done well enough that it's not more advantageous for a team to just wait around until the other teams fight it out with a huge PVE monster & waste all their supplies, then ambush and steal the bounty with superior...

    Lower clock speeds on this card then other MSI GTX 970s. Anyone have any opinion on this card? Seems like a fairly good price for the card?
