    Oculus Rift Priced At $600

    I think this price point is way too high for mainstream. Comparing to monitors I have a Dell 3007 I bought new for less and I've used that for nearly 7 years now while in the AMA he was saying around a 2-3 year life for this. The biggest issue with these niche tech products is who the hell is...

    MPAA Drops Movie Theater Anti-Piracy Bounty

    Hey if you have enough money you can buy whatever laws you want to have your own use of the police force too, that's what makes it fair.

    Price Cuts On AMD And Nvidia GPUs

    Seriously I feel like a grandpa remembering paying $400 for the top of the line card back in the day. I just laugh when I see titan prices of $800+

    7 Things I Still Hate About Windows 10

    Everyone saying that you shouldn't complain about the intrusive data collection in 10 because other OS's do it is a moron. I've decided i'm staying on 7 after the telemetry updates they pushed through and them being kind enough to waste a ton of my bandwidth and fill up my hard drive...

    U.S. Government Wins Millions From Kim Dotcom

    Have you read the other blunders in this case? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaupload_legal_case To me it seems very apparent what's going on. The RIAA and MPAA manipulated the US government to go after a private citizen in New Zealand to get a superficial victory in their war against...

    U.S. Government Wins Millions From Kim Dotcom

    This whole case has been an absolute joke of justice. It's done nothing but expose just how corrupt the US justice system has become. Civil forfeiture is just the icing on the cake and I hope it helps citizens see how far any type of due process has fallen. Stock up on guns and ammo, it's...

    Surface Pro 4 Release Date, News and Rumors

    Surface 3 should have never been made without a cpu refresh so I think it's the perfect time to look to the next iteration. With the new processor these things could be amazing for battery life, heat, and performance.

    The Official Guild Wars 2 thread

    I personally can't stand the living story. To me an MMO is the absolute worst place for instanced story telling, the required story in Final Fantasy was one reason I didnt hesitate to not renew after the free month. I love the buy to play buisness model but with allowing people to buy gold...

    Sony Hack Was 'Cyber Vandalism,' Not Act of War

    I still don't believe this was done by North Korea and this seems very tame to the things the Chinese and the US have both been involved in. Hacking a movie company versus infecting computers that control critical infrastructure.

    Heathstone (GvG) expansion

    I played for a few months when it first came out and the more I played and unlocked all the cards the more the massive amount of rng on everything bothered me. They really oversimplified the core game mechanics too much in my opinion. I know that card games in general have random elements but in...

    U.N. Panel Reaffirms That Climate Change Is “Irreversible”

    The question is about anthropogenic climate change, not climate change in general since I believe everyone agrees the earth naturally changes climate over time. So at this point if this were a normal problem and not the emotional/political issue it has become you would ask how much of an...

    Destiny Review Round-Up

    I can't believe they released a 30 fps game in 2014 on "next gen" consoles. It looks decent from the Twitch streams I've seen but no way i'll be buying either of those jokes of a machine so the only chance of me playing is if they bring it to PC and actually optimize it.

    Sony Online Entertainment Having Rough Day

    When I heard those idiots grounded a plane I was SOO happy. No one cares if they interrupt some games for a couple days but you claim there is a bomb on a plane and divert air traffic? They are going to Federal pound me in the ass prison for sure. It was like hearing the local bully went up a...

    SurfacePro3 opinions

    In my mind this thing is the product that never should have been. I've tried it out a few times in stores and it's pretty snappy but knowing the thermal and gpu constraints that would come from actual usage have made me hold back. They should have just waited for Broadwell heat reductions but...

    The E3 thread

    I just hope they don't screw up the PC port of GTA5, only console I have is the Wii U and play almost all of my games on the PC. It would be nice if they for once didn't give us a glitchy mess for a Grand Theft Auto game. Also I can't stand all of the rendered scenes during these presentations...

    N.S.A. Collecting Millions of Faces from Web Images

    By releasing it in chunks it's also giving them a chance to lie on public record not that anything is actually being done about the purgery at the congressional hearings. Hopefully it's swaying some peoples opinion on if this is ok when they feel the need to lie to elected officials about what...

    Surface Pro 3 Gets Real: Specs and Pricing Revealed

    I was pretty much dead set on getting one until I saw the Ntrig pen.The Wacom pressure sensitive pen was the thing that set the Surface Pro above the alternatives for me. Hopefully it's not horrible because it looks like everything else came together pretty nicely.

    FCC To Propose New 'Net Neutrality' Rules

    Politicians openly lie to us when running for an election between two shitty choices. If you really think sending a letter is going to a make a difference good for you, i'm past that point. I'm done voting as well which only feels like playing their game to make people feel like they have a...

    Who Stole $400 Million From Mt. Gox?

    I'm amazed at how many of you have no understanding of the US dollar, where it comes from and why it has any worth at all and have no understanding of how bitcoins are generated or why they have value. It comes off as ignorance or jealousy when you take such a blind negative stance that people...

    Bitcoin Exchange Mt. Gox Disappears

    Galaxy GeForce GTX 780 - $419 (no rebates)

    I think I got my 7970 last June for right around $270 after a prepaid Visa with the 4 game bundle so the new AMD cards weren't even an option at the time.

    Galaxy GeForce GTX 780 - $419 (no rebates)

    Dell Declares the PC 'Undead,' Windows 8.1 Starts to Shine

    I just bought my parents a Macbook air today and I hate Apple's philosophy on a closed ecosystem. The fun part is I think my dad would have an easier time learning MacOS for his uses (mainly internet) then getting stuck is some horrible metroapp using Windows 8. Microsoft took a chance trying...

    XDMA new AMD Crossfire technology

    I would have gone with 3 30" 2560x1600 displays 3 years ago if video card technology was up to snuff. I bought a refurbed dell 3007 for $650 then and could have easily afforded a couple more. Now days you can still pick up 30" 2560x1600 monitors for around $800 new. It's a very ignorant...

    Entertainment Industry Sounding The Alarm Again On Piracy

    I just went to movie with a friend in Chicago. He got the tickets and I got the concessions. It was $17.50 for a pop corn, soda, and water. The water alone cost $4.50, that's just for a standard water bottle. They completely take advantage of you which is i'm sure why they have so many issues...

    The Government Wants To Make Unauthorized Streaming A Felony

    It's so painfully obvious the government is being run by companies and cash. I don't know what to do other then move somewhere better when it gets bad enough. Voting for two piss poor choices that have already been put on your ballet through greedy back room handshakes has no effect so I think...

    Asrock Quality

    I had an i7 920 Asrock board and went for the Z87 Extreme 6ac as it's comparable features would have cost $100 more on an Asus branded board. It's been alright so far, downloads from Asrocks website are painfully slow and the bios was reporting the wrong cpu voltage which kept me from over...
