    Jar Jar Binks Actor Says He Considered Suicide after “Star Wars” Backlash

    Damn, I feel bad for the guy. It wasn't his fault. Just look at the rest of the prequels! Sad to say I think Lucas lost whatever he once had, and I'm glad he sold to Disney. They may milk the hell out of it, and "Disney-fy" it, but that's fine with me. I still enjoy them, and they can't change...

    Intel’s Flagship 9th-Generation Core i7-9700K May Pack 8 Cores, 16 Threads

    LOL! No, I was exaggerating, but I guess I lost the silicon lottery on this one. The chip I've got runs far hotter than any chip I've had. I've replaced the cooling system, tried different TIM, and it still runs hotter than hell. It hits 80C at load at stock speeds. Any attempt at moderate OC...

    Intel’s Flagship 9th-Generation Core i7-9700K May Pack 8 Cores, 16 Threads

    I am one of those losers. I really regret going with this 7700k from my 2600k. Ah well, I'm stuck with it for a while.

    AdoredTV: NVIDIA’s Performance Improvement Has Dropped from 70% to 30%

    IMO, Nvidia is likely just dragging things out to maximize their profits. Just like Intel, and just about everyone else.

    Music License Expiration Ends Alan Wake Digital Sales

    Awesome game, played it on the 360. Even the wife loved it. Definitely worth picking up. Still haven't played American Nightmare on Steam which I picked up ages ago.

    Titanfall 2: Exclusive 4K 60fps On A Titan X

    Battleborn DLC Next Month

    I play co-op with the wife and friends from time to time, I think it's pretty good. Tried multiplayer a few times, and gave up after 15min of waiting for players each time. So I guess I'm one of the few people playing it. Bought it for $10 though, and it was definitely worth that.

    NVIDIA Settles GTX 970 Class-Action Lawsuits

    I've already gotten a $65 credit at Amazon for my 970 because of this debacle. Really need extra cash, so this is great. I've been really happy with this Zotac 970 for what it's worth.

    Comcast's New Broadband Service Is Twice As Fast As Google Fiber

    Nope. I agree with some of the other comments already posted; Comcast has screwed me over for years. I'm waiting for my Google fiber install (which is taking forever), all the while Comcast keeps calling me offering to cut my bill in half if I sign a three year contract. FU Comcast, FU...

    3D Is Dead. Will 4k And 8k TV Make It?

    Aww man, I really like my 3D TV! It really adds something to certain flicks (e.g. Pacific Rim!). I try to see all action/sci-fi/fantasy movies in the theater in 3D. To me, it's not dead, not even close.

    Quantum Break Gamescom 2014 Gameplay Demo

    Looks great to me, a bit like Max Payne 3 with a reverse bullet time, and I loved Max Payne 3. Not completely original no, but it looks damn fun to play! Thanks for putting it on my radar, hadn't heard of it.

    Bluetooth E-Cigarette Receives Calls, Plays Music

    Nicotine doesn't cause cancer. None of the chemicals used in "e-juice" are known to cause cancer. Now this Marlboro I'm smoking? Yup, cancer it is. That said, this is so damn stupid I can't believe it made it to manufacturing.

    Samsung Exec Bashes Windows 8

    Agree 100%! It's actually a great desktop OS, but they tried to tie two platforms together without a choice of the UI. Bad move there. Still, I'm loving it with 3rd party tools which should have been included from the start. .. (no pun intended :P)
