Ooo, Microsoft Office going to be subscription based? Oh well, looks like things going to be grim in the future. I don't use the service much (maybe couple times per annual), so paying monthly is not ideal for me. I still stick with 1 time payment at least it'll last.

 

Ha, well, nVidia, screw you for confusing people. I wonder which idiot branding the 12GB version RTX 4080 where it is clearly less powerful than RTX 4080 16GB. Just stick what works. The RTX 4070 can be RTX 4060, the RTX 4080 12GB can be RTX 4070. It's always been this way since. But meh, forget nVidia. I already lost hope and trust with them.

I have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism_spectrum

 

I apologies if my comments or post offends you in any way, or if my rage got a little too far. I'll try my best to make my post as non-offensive as much as possible.
