    PlayStation Sales Double Xbox One’s in 2018, according to EA Data

    Agree with the first point but not the last one. There are roughly two times more PS4s, but I see like 10 times more PS4s needing serviced.

    PlayStation Sales Double Xbox One’s in 2018, according to EA Data

    I fix hundreds of consoles. Xboner got PS4 beaten on reliability. PS4s have all kinds of problems and seem more cheaply made. PS4 just got more popular than Xboner because it was cheaper with slightly higher specs that no one could tell a difference on.

    top reasons people didn’t upgrade to the iPhone 8 or iPhone X

    I didn't say my tastes represent everyone else's. In fact, they're very different than the average. 99% of my photos happen to be close-ups which I doubt a dual camera setup is even going to help there. That dual camera gig would be better for portraits which other people take. I took several...

    E-waste Recycler Headed to Prison for Selling Windows Restore Disks

    Well, who is actually paying for the restore dics? Dude better not drop the soap.

    PSA: Amazon Raising Prime Annual Price to $119

    I prefer to go to the local grocery store, buy from Newegg and eBay sellers and my other main suppliers. We will still use Prime though, because it's convenient to get things quick at work for customers for certain items. Otherwise, we probably wouldn't use it.

    top reasons people didn’t upgrade to the iPhone 8 or iPhone X

    Most people I know looking for an iPhone want the 6s or 7. There's just no point in upgrading so often in my opinion. I'm still using my Motorola from 2014. The camera photos look comparable to a Note 8's. The hype about cameras I don't believe. Wireless charging... who cares? Face ID... who...

    Looking for a mid ranger, up to $200 with a great camera

    I would get a used LG G6 with those requirements.

    OnePlus 6

    You better worry about it. I see too many liquid damaged so-called water resistant phones.

    Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+

    Must have force shoved that SIM card in any old way wrecking it loose into oblivion. I just looked inside the hole and saw all kinds of bent, wrecked pins and thinking to myself this just got fucked too hard. I told her the SIM hole got sodomized. Otherwise, the phone looked pristine.

    Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+

    Already saw someone sodomize their S9's SIM reader like someone's poop shooter today. Cheap piece of crap didn't want to pay me $100 to fix it. Hmm, wonder what that piece of garbage is going to do with that $1000 phone that I doubt they even own, just not pay their bill like an irresponsible...

    Apple to Start Paying $16B Tax Bill

    I don't think they're going to end up paying that.

    I just recommend people to get AMD for the last year or so.

    Do Any M.2 PCIe SSD to SATA Adapters Exist?

    I can find M.2 SATA to SATA and mSATA to SATA but can never find M.2 PCIe SSD to SATA adapters--I'm going to guess they don't exist. Adapter would only be used for convenience of data transfers when needed. I already know M.2 NVME PCIe to PCIe exists.

    “The Last Jedi” Is the Most Divisive Star Wars Movie Between Fans and Critics

    Have not seen the new one but I can't imagine it being as bad as The Force Awakenings--by far the worse Star Wars film in my opinion. Only actor I liked was Hans Solo the dude which they end up just killing. Overall crappy characters and acting and so much seemed unrealistic while copying the...

    AMD Ryzen Threadripper Installation Redux

    Yes, those screws are Torx. Those were the ones I guess he partially unscrewed. I kinda doubt they would ship them that way but who knows. Higher resolution here: https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/DSC03289.jpg http://cdn.overclock.net/c/c3/c34f3320_DSC_0118.jpeg
