  1. Yeah but if you do that I don't think the University is gonna complain about abusing their free electricity since you're creating your own.. Not sure how your neighbours gonna feel when you cover their windows with solar panels tho.
  2. Yeah that was exactly my point. Using a VPN would do nothing to hide the fact that you're mining.
  3. Not really. Strix is an gaming brand for products. But e.g Rog strix 1080 uses a DirectCU III cooler. Much like arous 1080 uses a windforce cooler. It's not the companies brands for the cards but the coolers.
  4. <Insert meme of nerdy guy saying actually/> Windforce the name for gigabytes cooling solution and not the brand afaik. Much like DirectCU and twin frozr are Asus and MSIs cooling solutions and not gaming brands. So unless the GPP requires an exclusive cooling solution/design these labels will continue to exists on both sides.
  5. Same goes for the 100 series more or less. So Nvidia has learned to count?!
  6. Well in the past they jumped from ti200/ti500 to 4xxx and then from 9xxx to 2xx*. So with a little bit of nvidia history it's not that surprising that they will change it up once again. Or they are just bad at counting. *not counting the 100-series rebrand of 9000-series.
  7. Back in my days me and my friends played counter-strike and world of warcraft and the more casual people played Farmville. In the classroom on the laptops we got from the school(age 15-18). And before that we had other ways to not pay attention in class.
  8. There's an obvious difference between buying a cheap product from a Chinese no-name company and buying a used product from a reputable brand. My point still stands. Quality comes at a price. But you can get good deals in the used market sure. But the previous owner still paid for the quality. Half of the stuff in my apartment I bought from someone else. And I got more for my money than I would have gotten if I bought cheap knockoffs.
  9. Toys"r"us is still alive and kicking here in Sweden. That said I'm not that impressed with my local store. High prices and lacking in every aspect apart from Lego.
  10. But why? I have a hard time believing it will be great to play without a controller. And it's not like I'm gonna whip out a controller when I'm on the toilet, waiting for the buss. You know the times when you usually play something on your phone. I can't be the only one that prefers single player casual style games on my phone. If I wanna play something more serious or multiplayer game I very much prefer my dear pc. Or even a console.
  11. As long as they don't put the God awful keyboard from the macbook lineup on the new MacBook air. Nevermind the fact that the keys have a 0.000001 nanometer travel distance. But the tiniest dirt or dust particle that get stuck under the keys makes keys non-responsive when pressing down. I've had my macbook in for service twice in less than a year for problems with the keys.. But in all seriousness I'm a little surprised that Apple is keeping the macbook air lineup. I was under the impression that the macbook was the successor considering its thinner, lighter and smaller than the macbook air. But then apple released an refresh last year. Better display is a must for the air to make sense imo.
  12. Iirc blizzard have had this thing for a long, long time. Im surprised this wasn't already a thing on PlayStation.
  13. Afaik He said on the last episode of the Crypto-adventure that they will be creating a coin. But that nobody should ever ever ever ever bothering investing or mine it. (not sure if it's been published on youtube but it should be.)
  14. Well considering it's Bahnhof we''re talking about I see great potential for Seedboxes.
  15. Yeah most of the DLCs are craptastic stuff named stuff packs. But they still cost 10 bucks and I bet they sell quite a few of these new fancy washing machines to kids and completionists. edit: Personally I hold The Sims accountable for starting the Wave of infinite numbers of DLCs most AAA titles have these days. Much as MTX is a plague started on iOS and Android and spread to PC games. Mobile gaming has gone to shit with the introduction of MTX and the PC side is quickly catching up sadly.
  16. Yeah The Sims has no lootboxes. But instead The Sims 4 have around 25 DLCs and The Sims 3 had around 20 DLCs (Sims 2 had a crapton of DLCs too iirc). So don't worry, EA still makes a ton of money of the Sims series
  17. The new update is not great. It seems pretty obvious snapchat is just trying to cram in as much ads as possible. They traded usability for adspots more or less. Not surprised that the stock is dropping.
  18. Intel really stepped up their clock speeds with these ones. With a stock speed of 430GHz, who needs a K-chip?
  19. The next expansion is coming in September. Don't expect a wow2 in the next year or two atleast.
  20. Wc3(or 1 or 2) remastered maybe. But warcraft 4? Not likely due to WoW. And a complete new game would most likely be announced at blizzcon.
  21. What about the upcoming age of empires games? The HD remake of the first game and age of empires 4?!
  22. To be fair. The symbol doesn't crash ios but just the application you type (receive?) the character.
  23. Yeah. Pretty much. I personally don't think the "people are used to it" aspect is the reason for most to stick to it. But the "everyone uses it" is the probably the only reason Skype still is relevant. It's too convenient and too easy to connect with people so everyone still uses it. Atleast when communicating outside their own company. It's pretty easy to compare it Facebook, you can survive without it but it's ALOT less convenient. But everyone thinks it's a steaming pile of shit. Especially since the redesign I and alot of people around me have experienced major stability and reliability issues. Yeah I'm fully aware on this and agree. Skype for Business should've had another name to avoid the confusion or some cross-platform integration, not that it matters now when it's beeing axed. Not that I'm that to keen on another Slack-like experience. All though I suspect MS Teams will be a far better platform then Slack. A company I used to work for had Slack has their communications platform and I found it to be very lacking.
  24. Who uses Skype these days? Well. Tech companies and reviewers do. I've had contact with reps from various hardware tech companies and resellers over the years. Afaik LMG also uses Skype for stuff. Linus has complained about the separation issues with Skype and Skype for business on wan show atleast two times. But is it a platform for personal use anymore? Not so much.
