  1. By the time I finished creating the post the topic had already been posted by others, no idea how to delete this post, sorry.

I mean, not really surprised Mixer failed but the move to Facebook feels just weird to think about, also that they're apparently working on even more stuff together. All that money spent on big name streamers wasn't enough, I don't think Twitch has any real competition. Quote from the original Mixer blog post:
  3. Sure, but read the article, even if half of the stories are true, you can run a company without treating your employees like that
  4. Min-Liang Tan, Razer CEO, is described as a tyrant and a dictator by former employees. He's being accused of firing people because he was in a bad mood or displeased with the results of unreasonable expectations. Some quotes from the article: Source: https://kotaku.com/razer-ceo-berated-and-threatened-his-staff-former-empl-1840240823 Thoughts: Honestly, disappointed but not really surprised, most of the stories are years old so I can only hope he has changed over time. For me is clear the guy has an ego and very concerned with the image and "culture" around the company. They talk a lot about the promises of wealth form going public, they already did so hopefully some employees got their payday.

This is a very mayor bug if you ask me and their only response was “Hi guys, we’ve resolved this issue.” like, come on, at least say you're sorry or something.
  6. Don't worry, tbh I'm not even sure I can remove the passive cooling. Yeah, as I said my first option was some kind of home server/nas, but I like the emulator machine idea, I might look into it, thanks.
  7. Hi, I have an old PC and I'm looking for ideas on what to do whit it, the thing is, it's really on the low end side and it's around 10 years old. I don't want to get rid of it because it has some sentimental value as it was my first pc and served me well for some years for school and even to play some old games (it ran GTA SA pretty decent). I was thinking about turning it into some kind of NAS or home server, I'm a web developer so I thought maybe using it to host demo sites or test, but I'm afraid it might be to slow. I also thought about just installing Lubuntu and having it as a backup in case anything hapens to my main system or any need I had for another PC. Specs: CPU: Intel Atom D410 1.66Ghz, 1 core, 2 threads (x86) RAM: 2GB DDR2 800Mhz GPU: Integrated graphics PSU: Generic 400w It had a 250GB HDD but it died so I currently don't have any storage for it. Btw, did I mention the CPU is freaking passively cooled?!?! Any suggestions are welcome. Pictures of the system:

The way I see it this is a win-win, they get to sell more systems (probably) and customers get a fair price on GPUs, given you want a new system and not just an upgrade. Edit: sorry for the misleading original title, I just kinda copied the title from PCGamer, fixed it.
