    DICE Boss Says Battlefield V’s Women Are Here to Stay

    While i understand your point, Battlefield presents itself as a game set in reality, whereas doom is set in a fictional world. Personally I don't really care but I can easily see people who like game accuracy to be annoyed by the clear rewriting of history.

    $5,660 Mac Pro Crushed in Photoshop Test by $1,530 PC with AMD Ryzen

    For 3d rendering you do not need the accuracy that a quadro or firepro card will give you, that would be for medical imaging stuff. I also will just say that i just build a animation company a computer with 8 1080s and the only reason they would have gone with something else would be titans...

    What Does HDR Mean For Games And Movies?

    As far as i can tell what dolby is calling HDR is really just 10bit video. When setting up shots for recording you do not have to do anything special to get a 10 bit image to look good, infact it makes it easier. All of the digital cinema cameras can shoot in 10 bit and some of the ultra high...

    Kevin Spacey Awarded Email Delivery Control Patent

    Sounds like a new idea to me. It's a whitelist but if the mail does not make it through the filter the sender gets a email back asking for a code to let the email go through.

    Amazon Oculus Rift Bundle Shipping Before Pre-order Customers?

    When they started the preorders that told people that there was a set number of Rifts set aside for sale in bundled pc builds. This is a total no issue. Also, if you look at the amazon site there are people selling just the Rift for $1500 when you can get the Rift with a pc for that price.

    Wi-Fi 'Allergies': Is Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Real?

    I use to work on a 10Kw microwave radio and while I do not think the radiation from your 10w device did anything I do know that sometimes the HPAs of microwave devices have a high pitch hum. The sound might have been giving you a headache.

    Reuters Issues Worldwide Ban On RAW Photos

    pxc, I am not sure what I have done to so offend you but, I do not understand what context you are going for at all. Even if the final display of the image is small the quality of the original makes a huge difference. I can understand that if it's going to print in a newspaper it won't matter...

    Reuters Issues Worldwide Ban On RAW Photos

    You are making a common mistake that i think the vast majority of people do. Pixels do NOT equal quality. a 16+mp jpeg is still a possibility. Just because it is RAW does not mean it has more pixels, just that each pixel has more information in it. I am not sure what they are afraid of with...

    This Link Crashes Chrome

    I know next to nothing about programming but is that a normal way to do the operation? Does it always act like the values after the % are calculated first? Like a bracketed section in algebra order of operations. So would crome read it as %(%30%30). That would make it only run the decode...

    Hackers Hijack Satellite Internet Links

    No idea why it wouldn't work. Our SIPER net, the secret internet, link was basically a vpn tunnel. Any chance that the other side just thinks its a lost packet after 500ms or something? I don't know that much about how that works, I just fixed the satellite gear.

    Hackers Hijack Satellite Internet Links

    When i was in the Military i was told that it was illegal in the united states to send unencrypted data to a satellite. How could they be totally unencrypted downstreams? As a side note, if that's true then they are very stupid setups.
