Wow, that's actually pretty neat and totally a step in the right direction imo (n.b. I've been an Arch user for almost a decade now). As for MS making money, I'd imagine a lot comes from other endeavours like Azure nowadays, too.

I'm finding many of the Windows games I actually do play (not all) work pretty well with Steam's patched wine on my RX 480, so one can hope.... (but yeah DRM/anticheat seems to be another story) There are a lot of people who run VFIO setups, Linux as base OS and Windows in a VM, passing through...

Is that like the rolling release model on Linux distributions like Arch/Gentoo, in that you never have to actually "upgrade" to new major releases and just use Windows Update (or whatever) to download software updates/patches regularly?

Weird, I just noticed the same thing as well. They seem to list multiple brand coolers on their website, maybe they're just retail partners or something? https://www.scythe.co.jp/product/cpu-cooler/rc-1208rgb/ (reeven) https://www.scythe.co.jp/product/cpu-cooler/cr-301-rgb/ (jonsbo)...

Can't say #1 favourite, but definitely a favourite. She's pretty chill.

It's unfortunate Google cut building out their fiber program. How is there still no residential fiber in much of Silicon Valley?

Yeah, I'm hoping that they'll create all the Vulkan mappings for DX10 (or however it works for DX12, I'm not too familiar but my cursory understanding is that DX11/DX12 APIs are basically translated to Vulkan's API, which makes it usable on Linux) and those games will eventually "just work."...

That's cute. How different was your taste in music 15 years ago? I don't think I ever could afford an mp3 player before they fell out of fashion...

Dang schoolslave, any chance I could get in that? I'm getting these sticks too for a workstation build, but the lowest I can find is 175/ea.

Can we get a poll on whether people like RGB or not? Definitely seems like I'm not the only person disgusted by all the RGB hardware on the market.

That seems like a pretty drastic path to take. I didn't know Netflix was hurting for money.

It seems unlikely since it's not a consumer oriented processor. You can try buying it through Provantage (https://www.provantage.com/~7ITEP69N.htm). Also, I'm not sure if you've already got the motherboard, but I'm receiving one in a build this week that I won't be using (swapping it with a...

I mean... I guess I'll just answer this. Wireguard is pretty easy to learn and setup. https://www.wireguard.com/#conceptual-overview

I've found that rolling your own also has a similar issue, though it occurs less commonly (and I can't recall Cloudflare being related whenever it does). It's usually sites that just block entire "cloud" IP ranges.
