Good call.

This thread is bait.

I think this is a bad idea because mobo manufacturers arent psu manufacturers (usually) and they're going to mess this up. Also even more cables to the motherboard? Thats the opposite of what id like to see.

prediction: failure rate will be high and this will ultimately fail.

 

Also dont expect psus to be interchangeable between manufacturers, they can always squeeze some proprietary bs in, Im sure. 

The power supply will still do the bulk of the heavy lifting, converting 120/240v AC to 12V DC at however many amps it's rated for.

The mobo only needs to step the 12V to 5V

They already do something similar, stepping down 12V to 1.2V for the CPU

Would you be interested in falling market share warranty?

Was £898.80 with VAT. 

Aahh. Odd of them to show the excluding VAT price!

I assume the education discount. In America, anyways, it drops the price $100, and you don't really need any verification. It's just a $100 free discount...

£898 with Eduction discount in the UK.

I wonder ... How much hate I am going to get this for this??

 

How did you get the price down to £749?

Considering the vast majority of the world is stuck with at most ~10Mbps upload speeds, any higher resolution is useless for video calls

You can upload 1080P video within 10Mbps. 

The webcam is still 720P 

Bruh... 

Get a used Herman Miller for £400

Did Apple just do an NVIDIA?

 

The iPad air is 40% faster than the iPad Pro. Feels like the 2080ti owners now being overtaken by the 3070.

 

The A12X/Z in the Pro will still be faster in Multi-core than the regular A14 as it's 8 core vs 6 core. 

Expect to see an A14X soon though...

That is some pretty ridiculous minimum. 4 seconds per page of web browsing? 100ms has been possible for a decade, if anything websites have been getting worse by doing all this responsive html and framework cruft.

 

No, really, if you are playing an action game, 40ms is murder when your opponent has 4ms.

It doesnt really matter as the server wont have a tick rate to take advantage of ping that low. 

COD only has a tick rate of 12hz meaning everyone basically has 100ms ping playing it. 

Granted there are custom CS GO servers with 128hz tick-rate which can advantage of ping that low but they're not the norm.  

Even the Apple Watch still has a (hidden) port so I can't see the iPhone going completely portless. Possibly they'll replace it with the smart connector? 

Still no quad core Macbook Air though

Would love to know how this is going to be applied where I live as if it is going to apply to the UK, then it's going to get applied on those sold where I live. We do however have areas with no speed limit (like some parts of the autobahn), but on what most of you would call country roads...

Isle of Man I assume? 

Likewise most country roads roads in the mainland use the ‘national speed limit’ which is 60mph for most vehicles. Which is impossible for reach (unless you want to crash).

Some highlights:

The system can be overridden by pushing hard on the accelerator

There's likely to be an on/off switch which defaults to on every time you turn the car on.

This hasn't been formally approved (yet)

Wouldn't a mirror-less camera be better for capturing high FPS footage/several dozen images in a short period while still being able to display an image in the view finder.

The mirror doesn't move when capturing footage, it stays in the up position. 

With images, I believe the limit is usually the processor and buffer, DSLRs can go up to around 14fps burst but i'm pretty sure the mirror actually stays in the up position when doing burst photography at those kinds of speeds anyway.

Yes, there was an hour long documentary about it on the BBC last year, they actually filmed the phenomenon happening. It's very real.

I'm not denying that health care tourism happens but it being "By far the biggest drain" doesn't seem plausible, what seems far more likely of a drain is A&E being full of drunk people on a Saturday night.

By far the biggest drain is health tourism though, people from across Europe know the NHS cannot refuse anybody treatment so they travel to England (sometimes even illegally) and present themselves to English hospitals to get treated for free. A few years back the NHS tried to stop this from happening by seeking to charge anybody without a UK passport for treatment before its given and the ECJ ruled it illegal.

 

Have you got a source for this other than tabloid newspapers?

Do I have to enable it somewhere?

You shouldn't do, but I wouldn't expect decent playback at this stage. I've had issues with VLC updating before though, so it might be worth uninstalling and getting a new version off their website.

VLC doesn't support it.

It's had 'experimental' support since 3.0 

Incoming Navi! 

Virgin Media is the only choose for decent broadband:

Heeeyy good to see there's an intro now which was lacking in the FP version.
