Everything else I’ve read is that NVIDIA is preventing all pre-orders for AIBs.   Hopefully they limit the cards to 1 person per address for online orders and make AIBs do the same to prevent resellers from getting them all and just bumping up the price, but I’d buy one at MSRP the second I had the opportunity.  3080…

Do you know that you linked an article from 2016 about the 10-- series cards?

keep in mind that 34.99 isn’t just for the console, it also covers 2 years of xbox live and game pass. which, if you paid for everything individually would cost you $859.

I’m sure this game is a blast but I can’t get over the fact that it looks like a bad parody of the MCU.

You can’t spend 10 years getting as equated with the MCU actors and then throw this at us RIGht after endgame became the biggest movie in history. It’s just looks so...offbrand. 

Yeah, Digital Foundry is seeing 1.5-2x performance increases at 4K ultra settings in most current releases and that’s “just” with the 3080.  nVidia is claiming it’s the biggest generational leap of all of their cards so far, even more than the jump from the 9 to 10 series cards.  The 15-20% increase going from 10 to…

While there aren’t any official benchmarks (and won’t be until release) Big Green is claiming that the 3070 will be slightly better than a 2080ti (for a fraction of the price) and the 3080 will be double the performance of a 2080. I also have a 1080 but am thinking about a 3070 after I see benchmarks (the 30 series…

So the game is free? Or do I have to pay $60 for the privilege of paying extra money to get the stuff that’s already in the game? 

CCP: Sure would be a shame if I started dumping this 40% of the company we own, it might somehow affect the value of the rest of the stock.

“But pity the message is so ordinary when they could have been talking about democracy or more powerful things… And they didn’t use it.”

Xenophobia is a fear of something strange or foreign. Anti Chinese skepticism isn’t xenophobia. They aren’t skeptical of it just because it’s foreign. If that was the case then the same would apply to any other Asian thing. Calling it xenophobia does a disservice to what it is. China does a lot of shady things. Being…

It’s hardly comparable. China controls Chinese corporations to a much larger degree than US controls American corporations. Also China bans stuff from American corporations for much less.

Fuck the CCP

Valve, EA, and Blizz “exclusives” are mostly by dev studios owned by Valve, EA, or Blizz.

It’s not about installing a distribution client, it’s about not giving money to people I disagree with.

The wheelchair in the bed has me wondering if the Toyota is modified for accessibility.  It wouldn’t excuse anything, but it adds potential answers to “what went wrong?”

Well that just pulled the Oculus off of my lists for potential VR. Thanks for the heads up. I shut down my FB account over a decade ago and I have no intentions of giving them any of my data. 

If you haven’t already, look into the Index. That’s the top of the line at the moment. The nice thing about it is that it’s compatible with the Vive hardware, so if you don’t feel like jumping full into the top of the line experience you can get a Vive and upgrade piecemeal later.

Well, that’s your adware telling you about other potential adwares.

Windows Defender has been the only thing I’ve used in the last 5 years and I’ve never had any problem ever since. Free antiviruses ARE the viruses. I literally uninstall three of these from a friend’s computer not too long ago and all the spam she had…

Yep, it’s called Deadspin. It’s a ghost town where men yell into the void and never receive a response.
