    AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT official: $299 for 8GB and $349 for 16GB model, launching June 5

    8GB cards are fine imo, but I would like for them to clearly ensure customers understand what they are getting. Different branding or something but as it stands, they are all at the entry level. They aren’t putting 8GB with 5070s or what not. Ideally, I’d rather them just list the 8GB cards as...

    Plex pass going up

    Omg thanks for this, for some reason I had been an annual renew for 10 years 🤣. Got it in time before the increase.

    Microsoft Relaunches Copilot

    my only use case for AI (well at least LLMs) so far has been to simplify vast amounts of information or help with brain storming.

    Something Is Rotten in Cupertino

    I got the 16 Pro Max coming from the 12 Pro Max mainly due to USB-C and 120Hz screen. I’ve been in the Apple ecosystem for over a decade for phones. I’m 50/50 I guess for desktops/laptops between Apple and Windows. I turned off Apple Intelligence as soon as I got the phone setup. Apples...

    Steam 2024 Summer sale is here! Summer sale runs from June 27th to July 11 2024, 10 AM PST

    If Wildlands was in that new engine I’d agree with you otherwise I hated Breakpoint, adored Wildlands.

    Counter-Strike Celebrates 25 Years of Tactical First-Person Shooter Excellence

    Eh I was a competitive player way back when in CS but never at the CAL-I level, but I helped start x6 then deployed to OIF 1 and quit all that right quick. Not to mention I was in Germany and trying to practice with an east coast team was not going to happen so I just scrimmed as a backup. CS...

    Microsoft finally putting Publisher out of its misery.

    To comment, I would get all three programs in that suite tbh. You effectively get one free and can use them all while inside Publisher using Chromas (switch between all apps while in the same file) without the need to export and import all the time.

    Microsoft finally putting Publisher out of its misery.

    Funny enough, I was tasked to make a newsletter as well not even 2 weeks ago, started with Publisher since we had M365, within an hour I requested Adobe InDesign. They said F no (monthly cost for business) so I went with Affinity’s suite. 137 bucks for Photo, Vector and template design was more...

    Latency Pipeline, "Input Lag," Reflex, & Engineering Interview

    Steve is definitely more direct in his approach but to say this is not sponsored by nvidia because he was not paid doesn’t really say anything. It’s effectively free marketing which will indeed have its perks in the future. Paid or not. It could just be access for future content. I don’t see...

    Microsoft says Xbox has "lost the console wars."

    Gen 7 yeah but towards the end with Kinect there were signs. Loads of people said it was going to be a problem for the One and like you said it effectively killed their momentum. What’s dumb is that even with that horrible launch they could have strived and been competitive. They just never...

    Microsoft says Xbox has "lost the console wars."

    You know, even though I'm now in my 40's with teenage kids and I very rarely even play video games it's posts like these that make me proud to be a veteran of the previous console wars both here and elsewhere. As someone who called this over a decade ago it makes me proud to know my hours of...

    Enshrouded

    I don’t normally play these types of games but have Valheim which I thought was terrible. I thought the world was boring as hell, it looked bad, and just had zero direction. Enshrouded has me more interested at least, it has clear instruction, clever story, looks ok, has a Zelda BotW feel to it...

    GeForce RTX 4070 Super reviews

    I’m willing to wait for it if I need to, so launch day availability is not an issue for me. Unless you’re talking about something else.

    GeForce RTX 4070 Super reviews

    Nah I've learned my lesson. With nvidia especially you want to sell your cards a full month prior to release at least. Throw your backup card in and wait till launch. The sell value difference after launch from before and after is huge. I can actually profit off my 4090 after having it for over...

    MSI Monitor Cheats for You

    The only time I thought I was cheating with hardware was way back when I used some device that hooked up to the Xbox iirc and let me use a keyboard and mouse. I think it was an XIM or something from WAY back when. It was the most fun I’ve ever had, just being able to slaughter everyone and...
