    lvh1 got a reaction from Zando_ in Hey.com exec says Apple is acting like ‘gangsters,’ rejecting App Store updates and demanding cut of sales   
    That's the thing, the "guidelines" from the app store don't allow that. If you state in any way that purchasing the subscription on your website is cheaper your update will get rejected. Take a look at the site that spotify put up summarizing the stuff they've had to deal with https://timetoplayfair.com/facts

    Since it'll probably have 16GB or more of ram it'll rarely have to use the swap, and if it does that would probably generate some stuttering which isn't desirable, so they'll try to avoid it. And even then, it would take thousands of hours of being memory-deprived for it to have any effect. a 500GB SSD usually has a MTFB of 200TB+ written these days, so that would take a very long time to reach.
    I wouldn't worry about it at all.

    I can't do work on a console, so that's a no for me. Why would I buy both a console and a relatively cheap office pc if I could combine them for a superior experience?

    I'm wondering the same, 128gb storage for the base model seems like a huge amount, doubt many people will even use half of that. I'm still using an s7 edge and the only reason for me to upgrade would be because of a severely degraded battery or slow performance. Not having any of those issues yet, and battery in the s10 is even smaller than what I currently have.
     
    I'm guessing they're jacking up the prices to counter the rising amount of people having a similar "my 3 year old phone is still good enough" experience, but I don't know if its actually significant

    Meh I explicitly enabled location tracking on android because it helps both me (for traffic delays) and other people, as well as being interesting to look back to later. I could care less that google knows where I went.

    I guess it's nice when electricity is cheap. It's a bit too expensive here to have this software run in the background every day unfortunately.

    I doubt that you'll be able to find any cards at 500$ just like you can't find any 2080/2080ti's at msrp at the moment.

    On top of that the price itself is too much too, a gtx 970 was 'only' 329$, 1070 was 379$ and now we're at 500$ for a 2070 just 2 years later. Can't image what the next series will cost if it keeps continuing like this.

    Just as I thought smartwatches were kinda dead/stagnated.
    Still not for me though, since I don't really have a use for them.

    lvh1 got a reaction from suits in NVidia Geforce RTX 2080 confirmed up to 2x GTX 1080 performance. Evidence for 2080 ti as well.   
    I'll believe it once the reviewers can confirm this kind of performance. If it had this kind of performance wouldn't they have said at least anything about it in the presentation? All we got to see was 'gigarays/s' which doesn't tell us anything about non-rtx performance.
    We also don't know what the Y-axis means so it could be anything.
     
    Still, would be very nice if it was true.
