    More And More Consumers Skipping TV, Going Broadband Only

    If there is one thing I have noticed about "cord-cutters" its that they can't stop telling you how great not having cable is. Guess what, I don't care. I wish to keep cable.

    Sep, Oct and Nov will be insane :eek:

    No it's not. The vast majority of games are fine on day 1, they don't all turn out like Battleshit 4.

    DirectX 12 could lead to better performance

    No....just no. There are some SITUATIONS that will see no benefit, just like Mantle, but there are many that will, especially if you don't have a high end CPU. "absolutely will not help performance" - that is ridiculous.

    95% Memory Usage?

    I think it is sql server causing that. When it fills up open task manager and stop the MSSQL service and see if it drops down to normal levels. I have had problems on my dev machine before where I had to set SQL's ram limit or else it would use up all my machine's ram. And, like your images...

    PC Gamer - Hacks! An investigation into the $1M business of video game cheating

    No matter what game you say has the most hacks, unless you say Medal of Honor Allied Assault you are simply wrong. The game had no anti cheat. (excluding 3rd party ones that came around late in the game's life.)

    The Last of Us is coming to PS4 'sometime' this summer!

    How is it any different than say Grand Theft Auto getting released on the PC? It always comes way later than the console version.

    The Last of Us is coming to PS4 'sometime' this summer!

    I will probably get this. I beat it on PS3 but then sold the game and also sold my PS3, plus I haven't played the DLC which got good reviews.

    IT Salary Survey 2014

    Pretty accurate in my region, if I select years of experience & job title. This is far below the NATIONAL average but cost of living is far below the national average as well. Which is why national averages are completely pointless.

    Battlefield 4 **Official Discussion Thread**

    Its called teamwork. Its really not that hard to take out a take when multiple infantry work together. 1 person should not be able to take out a tank without extreme skill/luck.

    How To Speed Up A Slow Internet Connection

    Weak Security In Most Mobile Banking Apps

    1. If you read the article they clearly state these are minor things, and aren't even related to the programming of the client or server. 2. To all the tinfoil hats, using a mobile banking app does not "put your banking info on your phone". It (should at least) requires a password to access data...

    Wow. Did he do all that hard hitting research in his ass? One sentence he claims the current tablet market is >= the current PC market. A few sentences later he says IDC predicts PC sales will still dwarf tablet sales. What is he smoking?

    SteamOS available for download December 13th.

    A couple of my friends want the power/flexibility of PC gaming but to do it on a TV (not that they can't already....but I digress). I'm not one of those people and I can't imagine its a huge market. If they were to develop some must have exclusives that might make things more interesting.

    You can continue crying all you want about the start screen reducing productivity - but its not true. In 8.1 there is simply no point it time when you have to open the start screen. EVER. Search is no longer full screen. And if you use the mouse to navigate the start menu in Windows 7 your...

    IDE's or editors?

    No it doesn't. There are far greater bottlenecks than what you write your code in. Not to mention any good IDE (i.e. Visual Studio) will let you operate as if the GUI isn't even there if you so choose, and extensions will let you use the text editor just like vim.
