It seems impossible for large video game publishers to maintain a good reputation. Blizzard was once worshipped as a company that cared about its fans and produced quality games; those days are long gone. More recently CDPR have shit the bed, and that seemed an impossibility so soon after all...

I just switched from a Corsair mouse and keyboard to Logitech (G502 and G815). I love the hardware—the G815 is especially heavenly—and I don't mind the software, at least compared to the pile of shit that is iCUE. Aside from being a bit clunky to use, I haven't ran into anything particularly...

I'm guessing the demand is from people who've blown up or sold every graphics card they've owned over the past few years and live in a used GPU desert. Yeah, a bit of hyperbolic joking, but it isn't too far off the mark when it comes to how utterly fucking ridiculous (sad) the state of GPU...

My friend was beating himself up about buying a 2080 Super around August of last year. I think he's feeling better about that decision now, and I'm feeling kind of idiotic that I decided to hold off on the GPU for my new build.

"launch"

Google gonna Google. It makes me less confident in all their services, including the perennial Gmail.

This is peak . . . something. I just don't know what in the hell what.

I consider myself a smart guy, but I've completely lost the plot about . . . well . . . everything these days. You know how when you drop something and you go to grab it but it just keeps bouncing off your hand until it crashes to the floor? That's what my brain feels like trying to grasp all...

I truly don't see how a cohesive society can survive all the fucked up AI shit coming down the pike. Something something luddite.

I subscribe to the block universe theory, so it's all rather moot to me.

I'm truly amazed this company is still in business. I have to give them props for that.

Due to my Corsair M65 PRO mouse's buttons finally getting wonky enough that I threw it in the garbage, I've rediscovered my love for ye olde Logitech MX518. I pulled it out of storage to act as a stopgap until I get a new mouse. I'd used it for about 12 years before initially retiring it, and...

I have a X570 Aorus Elite WIFI with a 3900x and 128gb of memory and the only issue I have is that once in a blue moon it will randomly sleep and not wake up without a hard reset.

"The telescope that ate astronomy". A phrase coined over a decade ago.

I had seven and some change in my BTC wallet that I'd forgotten about. I just checked it after reading this thread, and it's now $23.38. That crazy volatility is why crypto will never be a legitimate currency.
