    Samsung Messages Discontinued on July 6. FREE / BASIC / SMS text msg app recommendation.

    I've been using Fossify Messages, since the previous app I liked became abandonware. There's a whole collection of basic apps from them, if you're looking to de-Google further.

    Mark Zuckerberg Humiliated as AI Glasses Debut Fails in Front of Huge Crowd

    Technically accurate, on account of Zuckerberg being a lizard person in human skin. It's been 10 years since the failure of Google Glass, and it feels like Zuck wasn't taking any notes.

    $2500 5090 I’m out

    I would say Jensen got a grip on reality when he made that declaration. For as long as AI investment holds, Nvidia will do its damnedest to keep its grip. It's not even a choice, really. It's his fiduciary responsibility to shareholders.

    $2500 5090 I’m out

    Indeed. Jensen makes the final call on consumer product prices sometimes hours before their announcement, based on market realities at that moment. Anyone claiming to "confirm" the price before the synapses in Jensen's brain have fired is full of shit.

    So after this BTC halving, should I invest a ton of money or what?

    Coinbase allows you to set up alerts to help you time your trades. Standard alerts tell you when an asset is at a high/low for the past 7 or 30 days. Just like anything else, it's a game of buy low, sell high. The trick is in guessing when it's near a new floor or ceiling. As with most any...

    Zen 5 delayed to August 15th due to sample failures

    I'd imagine the significant majority of those CPUs are likely in trays for bulk orders, not boxed for retail.

    ASUS Rog Swift 32 inch PG32UCDM with 31.5″ QD-OLED Panel, 4K 240hz

    I spent the weekend upgrading my AV setup, principally replacing my PG279Q, which I got just shy of 8 years out of. Right now, I feel like the step up to 4K HDR OLED is on par with how I felt trying VR for the first time: Just stunning in a way I can't adequately convey with words. If anyone...

    32" 4k OLED 240hz monitors

    I've been seeing the ability to order the PG32UCDM improve drastically over the past few weeks. I have my backorder in and I'm just waiting on Amazon to receive & ship it. I've heard it's popping up on Best Buy to ship as they receive them. If by "full Gsync" you're talking about the module, as...

    ASUS Rog Swift 32 inch PG32UCDM with 31.5″ QD-OLED Panel, 4K 240hz

    A firmware update recently dropped with a new brightness boost option for Console HDR mode, plus support for Dolby Vision: https://rog.asus.com/us/monitors/27-to-31-5-inches/rog-swift-oled-pg32ucdm/helpdesk_bios/ Obviously, Dolby Vision support is the more marketable aspect of this update. But...

    4070S or 4080S for standby on a 3423DW

    As you're planning to flip it for next gen, you'll likely have less depreciation on a 4070s. It's also a more than capable stop-gap card for today's games.

    UEFI Firmware Update available for "blank screen on boot" for RTX 4080/4090

    Try enabling "Compatibility Support Module" in the UEFI. (On mine it enabled itself after a few failed boots.) No issues with blank screen on boot, after that.

    4080 Super: New Owners Thread - Share your experience!

    Thanks! After building my previous rig to the RGB-1337 spec, I decided to go for the "system I built over 10 years ago" look, this go-around. #nailedit

    4080 Super: New Owners Thread - Share your experience!

    I did not build this system with a particular eye to esthetics, but that card... still manages to look out of place to me. It, as expected, delivers double the performance of the 3070 Ti it replaced. But I really would have happily grabbed a dual slot 4080 S, even if it meant easing up on the...
