    Intel Raptor Lake 13900K Overclocked Past 9 GHz

    I can see wild overclocking to achieve some sort of high performance at gamming or video encoding, but disabling all but one core would get them the performance of a stock I3 without the ability to actually do anything with it. Sort of like putting 5 semi truck turbochargers on a Civic and have...

    Sound a bit odd. Laid a bunch off on Friday and by Saturday night they were being asked back. "As reverenced by posts on social media." It would takes weeks far an organization to notice that there is no one in their group left to fill those rolls. Especially when many of the workers are...

    Vox Media Goes After YouTubers That Mocked The Verge PC Build Video

    I don't understand the "thoughts" that go on inside VOX. They did a video where they "Discovered and Reveled" that Pinball isn't random. What sort of brain are they aiming at? The people they present as normal seem brain dead, they don't understand pinball.

    Comcast / Xfinity Throttling 720p Vids to 480p & Hotspots

    Yes Some one WANTED cell data included BUT it was NOT. It was unaffected by the Net Neutrality repel. Mister Ajit Pai does not deserve for someone to post his picture and wish him kidnapped and sold to a Klingon homosexual sex farm.
