    MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries announced!

    Im glad you agree EGS is complete bloatware. It takes 75mb to run a single page, where as steam fits a whole store as well as many other features into just over 3 times the memory usage, this is great considering it offers at least 10 times the functionality, steam programmers did great, epic...

    Expansion is an issue, but IMO bitrot is also an issue so i can deal with the lack of expansion, everything should be backed up anyways so really expansion is a non issue to me, when i need to upgrade ill just kill the array buy new drives then transfer the data back from backups.

    Why Don't ISP's Do More to Protect Customers?

    Yes for sure if it can be disabled then thats one thing and then yes having filtering would be fine, if you can pick and choose whats being filtered. My particular ISP wont even admit they are filtering anything let alone let you disable it. Luckily there is another company laying fiber in the...

    Why Don't ISP's Do More to Protect Customers?

    ISP's should screw right the hell off and stay away from my data. Im already forced to use a VPN to access some IPTV services as well as certain sites they decided i should not have access to. ISP's need to have less to do with "protecting customers" not more. Im an adult, i can make my own...

    Processor to Watch Netflix HD on.

    Yes for sure it should be enough, you said HD afterall and that starts at 720p which this will be fine for. Now if you are actually refering to 4k then no way it will handle that.
