So this "cable free" design is one that uses a connector on the motherboard that is powered... by a separate cable to the motherboard? Snide remark aside, I can see this as being a cleaner alternative as those cables to the motherboard tend to look nicer, and who knows maybe we'll get...

Back in the good ol' days Apple would have just taken the other technology, reverse engineer it, and come out with the own version saying they developed it, then end up settling for half a billion for patent violations a decade or more later. So sad where Apple ended up!

That's alright, the concept of "canon" no longer applies due to the multiverse shenanigans, they just call it Earth-69691234 and have a day

Reminds me of the time a student sent me a picture of himself getting out of bed... nude... for a homework submission.

Out of curiosity is this one of those 4k ultra issues only? Or is the game with lower settings/resolution also having issues too?

So I'm guessing the ambiguous nature of the title is you so not get "Cyberpunk 2077" and "Phantom liberty goodies" but instead you get goodies for Cyberpunk and Phantom Liberty?

Uh oh... the truth in this new "AI designed soda" is that the AI put brain controlling parasitic nanobots in the soda, and you've just been infected!

ouch, they really did put that "wonder element" into everything. I can't even comprehend a usage case where asbestos is necessary in water pipes, at least with things like heating ducts you could make the argument of being fireproof

Or lead if you live in places with really old pipes!

I agree, but also disagree, different types of sugars and how and where they are processed do differ based on frucose or glucose nature, but yeah they're all the most addictive substance every used by mankind and we consume way too much of them whether it's 'natural' sugar, HFCS, or whatever...

Out of curiosity how much of Amazons work force comprises jobs that can work from home versus having to pee in a bottle or get fired warehouse workers and drive your own car into the grave delivering package for minimal money? Or are those groups not considered employees because they are...

I would like to see what (older) consoles have historically done where day 1 titles dont look like they are even on the same system as titles years later as they figure out how to squeeze more out of the existing hardware. E.g. final fantasy 7 looks like absolute ass compared to FF8, compared...

Well the rules change everywhere I'm sure, and I'm not quite sure what the laws are in Canuckistan, but it largely depends on what "your fault" is. The rules usually are if you're let go due to "misconduct", and I don't think this guy saying this which started this whole shitstorm can be...

There are some interesting parallels here, where customer service jobs were largely all pushed to call centers, and then off shore to call centers because hey "it's the same level of effectiveness" (it really wasn't) and you dont need the office space and other things like insurance for your...

If you quit you cant file for unemployment, if you are fired though kaching! Btw the guy left/fired/etc was the guy who made the comment of the superiority of the labs compared to those other hosers?

Yeah that popped up for me right after I read the other comment, didnt click it though as I dont really care what the worst monitor ever was

no kidding, we hit the point where 2TB drives are roughly twice the cost of 1TB drives, but 4TBs are still more than twice the cost of 2TB drives, I'm guessing because higher density chips needed which are costlier or perhaps if they put on both sides of the stick that costs significantly more...

One thing I used to do when I was in college and could consume salt faster than a large farm animal, is I'd crush up a bunch of Cheese-It crackers and put it into some very plain "chicken" ramen, and I don't mean just a couple like enough so that the crackers would absorb almost all the liquid...

Did they though? Seems that they convinced a bunch of people that "DLSS 3 is 40 series only" and I'm sure some fraction of those people bought 40 series cards DLSS MOAR! Hence more money.

Holy mother of all deep fakes that was good.... well except for Linus having the physique of Homelander,

So what exactly happened? Didnt Nintendo sell more copies of the game the first month of release than any other Nintendo game in the history if Nintendo? Damn piracy sucks

Oh no what will the 2.5Gbe cable plugged into my windows 10 machine do!!

6 bucks is a good deal? God damn inflation, I remember getting that stuff 8 for a dollar when it wasn't on sale, when it went on sale 10-12 for a dollar. That said, that stuff is real hard times food for me, always has been, seems like a good idea, but then after eating it I feel like such...

Yes piracy hurts gaming because if it wasn't for piracy there would be no DRM like Denuvo, and Denuvo costs money to implement so the game devs end up making less money, and restricts those who actually have to use games with it even if by a bit, therefore piracy hurt the industry

Still not upgrading from my 3080

Well I mistyped, I meant to say profit per board/card sold, not as a whole to the company. And the reason is pretty simple, lower prices could end up making more profit in the long run with more purchases, I'm not privy to their financials and it certainly gets quite complicated where that...

Not going to lie, I was about to say something about a llama's ass too, but then I was like "wait a minute, wrong 'win' product"

and more importantly Nvidia (at least) will not reduce their profit margins.

extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, maybe they should have spent the better half of the past 3 years retesting and verifying what they were seeing rather than worrying about getting a patent on it (which apparently is what they did) I mean come on "it is superconductive at...

Yeah he didn't do it, but it'd be kind of naive of him to think nothing would happen as a result of mentioning the guy's channel but who knows maybe he thought he was doing a solid by giving him a bump, internet stans are a weird bunch. That said if the guy committed suicide because of...

Yes LMG is absolutely guilty for that and not a victim of it. But the point was how this all started had absolutely nothing to do with that, his EMPLOYEE said some stuff they shouldn't have to a 3rd party who was also taking a video which they posted that pissed off GN who decided to go looking...

I'm not a big Linus fan, but I do honestly see him as a victim in this. As I stated above this was some "nobody" who probably drew the short straw for giving tours and those other people who made the video posted it, Linus' group did not post a video calling out HWU & GN, they didn't "approve...

All of this because some skinny "nobody" at the LMG was picked as the one to give tours of the facilities, said some "controversial stuff" i.e. he specifically named others and essentially threw them under the bus as being "inferior" and someone posted a video of stuff he said online which...

Thoughts? A quick look at the first video, it got 2.7 million views in a day, and for a 45 minute video at that (even if not everyone watched the whole 45 minutes) that's gotta be worth a few bucks. Probably wants to go full Kylo Ren ... "More.... MOOOOOORE!!!!!"

as long as the video has chapter breaks to allow me to skip to what I want to see I consider it a win.

Do hookers go door to door where you live because I dont have any point of reference for this in the least

Eh, much ado about nothing if you ask me. Linus didn't release a video where he threw HUB under the bus, they gave a tour and one of his lackies who was giving the tour happened to make a comment that specified other companies, and that other person posted the video of the tour (not associated...

I would have still gone to the store asking about my card, feign ignorance if they said they emailed you a cancellation. The 15 minutes bit I can understand, because they don't want to keep things reserved for that long, but if the GPU is unavailable what exactly were they reserving? But...

Or I could go to a football (American) game, pay well over $200 for parking, admission, hotdog and a beer all for 3-4 hours of enjoyment. So a $200 game that has ten times the play time is totally worth it!!! I agree, "it is a stupid and nonsensical argument", compare apples to apples when...

Now that's some grade A forced obsolescence
