  1. Nice move from Intel, I wasn't expecting them to someone else's node. However, I'm not too excited about the shortages this move will probably lead to
  2. Sure, you get a better GPU, but if you can only use it for cross-platform games and Halo then you're still better off with a weaker system and better games. We'll just have to wait and see what Microsoft's new studios come up with this gen.
  3. Makes sense from their point of view. They want to lock people into their digital store and $450 would be be too tempting for a lot of people.
  4. I'm surprised the digital PS5 is $399, it will probably sell really well, just not this holiday season when most people will probably go for the Series S (and ultimately be disappointed they got a last gen console in a cute box /s). Demon's Souls looked so good and, of course, #GoWHype.
  5. And then I can deliver malware through the app store. Thanks, but no.
  6. I've been looking for a wireless mouse to replace my G502 for a while and now this thing launches. ?
  7. This has to be the worst charts I've ever seen, who made them? And why?
  8. Another reminder not to use this piece of ? (sorry, just discovered emojis on the forum)
  9. What does "more hardware" even mean? "More stable" implies better software, not hardware. Android flagships do have better hardware if you're talking about GPU performance, cameras (Pixels and Galaxy S, at least) and more RAM (seriously Apple...). iPhones have faster flash storage as far as I know and their SoCs are better. LMAO, this is priceless
  10. Both the Paperwhite and Oasis have lit displays. It's not backlight, but it still lights up the display pretty uniformly. Also, e-ink displays look better imo, at least for reading.
  11. Custom as in an AMD chip built specifically for them or custom as in A-series for macs? Cause the latter would be useless and kill the mac line-up.
  12. People need to keep in mind. Being worth 1 trillion dollars does not mean they actually have that much in cash reserves, those are different things and some of those who commented seem to not understand this. OT: As someone who doesn’t own stock, I dont’t really care, but damn that’s a large number
  13. How would syncing with several devices work in this case? Do you manually copy stuff from your PC to your laptop and phone or is there some kind of LAN sync?
  14. Just looked at a list of Android phones with notches and it seems you are right. What the hell are these people thinking? I'm not sure how Sony phones look, but I guess Samsung is among the only ones left with a decent design.
  15. Phone makers put a notch to house the only components that can't be hidden behind the screen. LG puts a notch and leaves the freaking chin at the bottom.
  16. What the hell is happening? There already was a 6-page thread here just a few hours ago about this exact news piece rumor.
  17. Most probably a War 3 remaster, since Warcraft lore is now tied to WoW and it would be pointless to have a second Warcraft game with a separate story. Also, another RTS would take away from SC 2's popularity and the game certainly doesn't need this. It's still weird cause Warcraft 3 is a lot more modern than the original SC was and I don't really see the point of a remaster.
  18. How much does the tempered glass panel affect the noise dampening of the case? Other than that, a pretty meh case, but I'm sure the pictures don't do it justice.
  19. If you want your precious data to not be stolen use a god damned password. TouchID and FaceID are just more convenient ways of unlocking your phone, even though everyone claims they're secure (they are more secure than simply swiping/clicking/whatever the hell other ways exist). No one has so far unlocked my phone using their fingerprint and I'm pretty sure no one will unlock it using their face (mainly cause I don't have an iPhone X, maybe the S variant will tempt me). If someone actually wants to get into my phone I'm pretty sure they'll find a way, however nobody so far has tried unlocking my phone to find my porn stash. Suckers don't know I hide it under my bed, alongside the dead hookers. Also, until we see a lot more data you can't claim it's less secure than TouchID. Shouldn't the machine learning part also make it safer as time goes by (genuine question)?
  20. Never tried chkdsk, everyone suggests sfc /scannow. Never did anything for me, however.
  21. I've only noticed two changes: The lock screen background finally changes every few days, previously it would only display some bridge (I'm sure it's a famous one) I now have to enter my PIN TWICE to actually get past the lock screen Another old problem I ran into (seems to happen every major upgrade) is that the task bar will get locked after a few minutes and I have to restart Explorer. I never found a solution for this, it always seems to go away after a couple of weeks. If anyone ran into this and knows a fix (scanning didn't work), I'd appreciate some help The good thing is my default programs were not changed and neither was any other thing except for the indexing location. It somehow switched back to C:\ whatever it was. Overall one of the better Windows 10 updates.
  22. They look great and all, but I keep my PC under my desk and I barely ever look at it.
