    LG is developing OLED panels for Gaming Monitors

    That's pretty cool, I wonder if they plan to offer smaller sizes, 45" seems too big for desk use.

    Meet "Ameca" The worlds most advanced Human shaped Robot

    Pretty amazing tech, but how long till they become self-aware and decide they wanna murder us?

    Hackers Hold Man's Penis For Ransom In Digital Chastity Belt, Demand Bitcoin To Unlock

    I love the part where he said that he used an e-mail with his actual name twice and the news outlets still went ahead and published it. Goes to show that most of the bullshit published in these sites had no research done at all, and some people think it's true, crazy.

    Bad Day for Facebook: Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, Messenger all Down amid Whistleblower News

    I saw a mention somewhere that this happened before Facebook went down. Was there confirmation that the outage was due to hackers?

    Blizzard Announces Diablo 2: Resurrected

    I really enjoyed Titan Quest, though I remember stopping it midway, I think it was due to a bug. Will have a look at Steam tonight to put it in my library if it´s free, thanks for the heads up. True, it will probably be fine. Though I'm sure people will find something to complain about, seeing...

    Blizzard Announces Diablo 2: Resurrected

    Would love to play this but still haven't managed to build a new PC, other priorities right now. Hopefully the experience is good for those playing right now, from what I read Warcraft 3 Reforged was a huge mess during launch.

    AI generator turns Street Fighter characters into }real life" characters

    Kinda creepy to be honest, still needs a lot of work. Weird that instead of keeping the eyepatch, they gave Sagat glasses, haha.

    Cowboy Beebop live action at Netflix!

    If it´s the first season, it´s not all that bizarre just yet, it´s mostly an introduction to Joestar and his rival. Now from the second season on, it really gets weird and that´s why I love it, you can never guess what comes next.

    Cowboy Beebop live action at Netflix!

    Did you miss the quotes I placed on the words social critique? I guess I should have used apostrophes, but english is not my main language. Some reading material for your delight https://www.macmillandictionaryblog.com/the-emphatic-use-of-quotation-marks

    Cowboy Beebop live action at Netflix!

    Nah, I´d rather stick with the anime than waste my time on some poor adaptation filled with "social critique".

    Intel introduces new high-performance graphics brand: Arc

    Let´s hope they come out with good stuff, more players in the market is a good thing. At least we know that Intel is big enough to be able to compete, I can´t see any other hardware company having the structure to go against a giant like NVidia.

    New Samsung Odyssey G9 with MiniLED announced

    Looks pretty good given the reviews, just wish there was a smaller option, it looks too wide. A 34" option would probably be the sweet spot.

    3dfx Making a Comeback?

    Neat, a PCI card, now we can play Duke Nukem 3D on a 240Hz display, haha

    Really nice, used to have one of these drives, with the remote control gimmick and all, good times.

    An9ther day, an9thr rans9mware attack. Russians again(revil?)

    Hmm, as "predicted" by the World Economic Forum. I guess it´s just a matter of time till they start regulating the internet while throwing around the good old "it´s for your own good" excuse.

    Happy Quakiversary!

    Quake was pretty cool, though not many of my friends played it. We all liked Duke Nukem 3D better, hehe

    Intel Iris Xe DG1 Graphics Card Review [Gamer Nexus]

    If it´s that much better than a UHD 750, it´s probably a great card to use on a media server for transcoding duties, I hear QuickSync is really good.

    Billions of passwords leaked online - rockyou2021

    I think I checked that 'haveIbeenpwned' site a while back and some accounts I no longer use were breached. But for peace of mind I changed my e-mail address password for something with lots of special characters and capital letters, wrote it down on piece of paper and stored it with other...

    Ethereum’s Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin Donates Over $1 Billion To India Covid Relief

    Honestly I don´t think he did it entirely out of the goodness of his heart, these meme coins have been bombarding the Ethereum network lately and gas fees have increased. Maybe this was meant to scare off some of the euphoria with these meme coins. But at any rate, a good deed is a good deed...

    Sad to hear, guy was really funny. His laugh alone is enough to get you laughing along his stories. RIP El Risitas, you will be missed.

    Blizzard Announces Diablo 2: Resurrected

    Looking pretty neat, seems they are getting it right this time, thankfully. Bad thing about the video is getting the itch to play D2 again.

    Justice League Official Trailer

    Dredd was a great surprise, didn´t expect it to be so good. Loved the shots where people took that "Slo-mo" drug, that was pretty cool. Hopefully we get a sequel, definitely deserves it.

    Justice League Official Trailer

    I watched it the week before last, was waaay better than that boring 2017 release. Indeed the 4 hour runtime seems absurd but I felt it went by quickly as the movie was quite entertaining.

    PSU for SFF PC: ATX vs. SFX vs. SFX-L vs. DC-DC

    Indeed, but I think playing a demanding game for 2-3 hours wouldn´t classify as a short surge, power draw would vary in certain areas, etc, but overall you are pushing both CPU and GPU to use a lot of power. At any rate, I still think that it would be ideal to have some headroom if you want to...

    PSU for SFF PC: ATX vs. SFX vs. SFX-L vs. DC-DC

    If you are planning to go with a 5800X and a RTX 3070, I´d suggest getting a 600W PSU to be on the safe side. TDP is not very reliable nowadays because these components can exceed the advertised TDP when stressed. So you will have a scenario where your PC will shut down when playing a demanding...

    Blizzard Announces Diablo 2: Resurrected

    It seems they are leaving gameplay and itemization alone, it´s mostly a graphical update. Let´s hope they do it right this time, not like Warcraft 3.

    Badass rebuilds unreleased Voodoo 5 6000 card.

    Holy Moses, now that´s hardcore! If I remember right, my first video card was a Voodoo 3500, so awesome at the time.

    Creative's Sound Blaster Z SE promises an even better audio experience

    Nothing too fancy, receiver ´s a Yamaha RX-S600 because I have limited space in my desk. Speakers I can´t really remember the model number, but they are entry level Yamahas, couldn´t get tower speakers because, again, limited space. But when I move to my new house I will be able to get something...

    Need Monitor Advice (1440p vs 4k)

    This is something that I worry about deciding for an ultra wide, I have no idea if I´ll get used to the curve, been using standard flat panels for many years now.

    Asus denied my warranty due to a 1 inch scratch on the BEZEL...

    Good to hear they came through, I like their products, but if the RMA is anal like this, no way I´m ever buying anything from them again.

    Cyberpunk 2077 Delayed Again (Dec 10th now)

    Man, wish I could play it, but don´t have a good PC now. Could buy it for PS4 but not too fond of playing FPS in consoles. The good thing about waiting till next year is that it will probably run a lot better, heard there´s a lot of bugs in the game and a 50GB patch, wow. I guess it makes...

    6800 / XT Review Round Up

    Nice to see AMD putting out a competitive card, consumer wins. Though now I´m not sure what to choose, if I go AMD there´s the smart access memory feature when using Ryzen CPU, but NVIDIA has better performance when it comes to RT and DLSS. Well, I suppose that either card will suit me fine...

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    Hi, been a long time off the site and computer hardware, but recently started getting back into it because next year I should be able to finally move into my new home. So, one thing I decided to overhaul first was my file server. Right now it just has a low power AMD Athlon CPU/MB combo and an...

    Capcom hit by ransomware attack, is reportedly being extorted for $11 million

    If the hacker releases their data into the wild, maybe Megaman Legends 3 will finally see the light of the day... Joking aside, you´d think such a big and longstanding company like Capcom would be prepared for this kind of attack, insane.
