I agree, this sounds like a "Oh shit, guess we got to actually start giving a shit now" rather than a "Oh no, people are hacking we need to do something".

They'd likely produce more garbage

Here is Digital Foundry's breakdown

Target audience = Gamers None of Nvidias marketing indicates their cards are aimed at crypto mining.

Makes me think of the new Watch_Dogs Legion game.

While I condone hacking completely... all I have to say is this... Good. Ubisoft hasn't been painting themselves in a good light as of late. Only people I feel sorry for are the devs that worked hard on this game.

New Raspberry Pi - The 400. Fastest Yet. Oh and it's in a keyboard.
sof006 replied to DevscoverOnYouTube's topic in Tech News
I think its pretty cool, for about £100 you get everything you need. Comes with the keyboard/pi combo (computer), power brick, mini HDMI to HDMI cable, mouse, 16GB memory card, even a programming guide. -
Purely depends on the signal strength and whether the phone mast in your area is congested. Put your phone in different locations in your house and test, thats my best advise. Not really much you can do as other than doing those few things its out of your control. Potentially check what signal is like from other networks in your area and move networks would be the last option.

Windows 10 Redesign Imminent - "Sun Valley" Slated for 2021
sof006 replied to NotTheFirstDaniel's topic in Tech News
I swear as soon as LTSC hits 1903 (next year I believe) I am moving to that. I am done with Microsoft and its "lets fix something that doesn't need fixed, and also ignore the stuff that does need fixed". -
Stadia Creative Director Triggers Uproar on Twitter
sof006 replied to Random_Person1234's topic in Tech News
"Should be paying publishers"... No actually i'd massively disagree, why? Because free publicity, advertising etc. If people see some dude on Twitch with an absolute crap ton of followers playing your game they're very likely to also want to buy and play it. Just today I was watching someone play the new Doom Eternal DLC and I decided to buy the new DLC... In fact I am fairly sure publishers give away free copies of games to these streamers on purpose for this exact reason. -
Apple finally enters 5G - iPhone 12 + homePod mini announcement
sof006 replied to williamcll's topic in Tech News
Apple, forever has to be the "We're doing something different" even though its so dumb. "Lets make a lightning to USB-C cable but not include a charging brick in the box". Worst thing of all? Apple crazy fans will lap it up and buy a separate charger directly from Apple when previously it was included in the box at no extra cost 19 Dollars for a 20W Fast Charger?? I doubt that any previous owners of an iPhone even have a charger like this. Also this does not reduce e-waste like many might like to think, if anything this will only increase it as now people will thro -
https://i.speedof.me/201007231009-527 Just done this speed test now. It's between 14 and 18 and no higher. I am with Zen as my ISP. Your ping/latency can be heavily impacted by which ISP you're using as your ISP can either take a shorter or longer route vs another ISP. For example when I was with BT as my ISP my ping was around 20, but thats because they took a longer route to reach the server.

In the UK we're in the period of trying to phase out VDSL technology in favour of "ultra fast" which in other words is true fibre, none of that FTTC rubbish. I am currently on a VDSL2 package and its decent and would consider myself to be one of the lucky people who can hit 70/80Mb which is roughly the maximum speed you can achieve on FTTC over here without g.inp, vectoring etc... In my area Openreach are in the process of rolling out fibre, id suspect its taking them longer with covid causing more problems. I personally hope to eventually move to an area that supplies Virgin Medi

Perhaps, I need to take a look at some reviews of their newer stuff. I guess I just got burned by their older stuff, heard of them stripping features from older cards in order to make their newer stuff look more appealing

So I have a sound blaster z currently in my system. But the drivers are shockingly bad on Windows 10. Yes I have tried custom drivers but the software that creative provides still just sucks so bad. I need a replacement that provides Front Panel audio so that I can plug in headphones when gaming with friends on teamspeak but also provides optical out for my speakers when I am not. I'd prefer a sound card that does auto switching detecting (detects when I plug in headphones) although its not a must. Honestly i'd rather stay clear of creative as their drivers are laughable. I've been
