I went to look it up in their published income statement, but they lump WB Games in with "Studios", so you can't see it distinguished from other content. They only mention a massive drop in revenue lately (almost 50%), along with a massive cut in spending following their latest restructuring...

I think I'm ok with that really.

I think you might be able to just remove the drivers for it, but Windows may want to keep re-installing them and thwarting your attempt. I wouldn't just unplug the power while leaving it in the PCI slot though - either leave it all plugged in, or remove it entirely. It ~shouldn't~ hurt it and...

I always hear people on Teams saying "I put something-or-another in chat" And I think "Oh, that's cute. I thought we were chatting?"

All I can think of here:

That is exactly how it would happen too

Let's hear it for fixing things that were working just fine and you shouldn't have broke in the first place!

I always feel like when two giant conglomerates merge, it ends up being somehow worse for everyone else. Inevitably they start spinning stuff back off in ~5 years, but only after after destroying your dreams and crushing your hopes... Warner has to be getting tired of being passed around like a...

Oh wow holy cow “The AI-driven growth in the data center has led to a surge in demand for memory and storage. Micron has made the difficult decision to exit the Crucial consumer business in order to improve supply and support for our larger, strategic customers in faster-growing segments,” You...

I seriously don't think graphics/hardware will get pushed much further, at least in the near term. I know that's gonna get a lot of pushback here. But... Look at the most popular games online right now. Most of them will run on a potato. Many of them are many years old. I mean, sure, there are...

This sums up my experience with Steam Deck - it's nice to have when the wife ropes me into watching dumb TV shows, but yeah, really glad it isn't my primary device. It's mostly nice because it's purpose built - what it does, it does very well, and it doesn't pretend to be a 4K gaming machine or...

That's exactly what I was thinking too. AI Benchmarks are... not impactful for my workloads at all.

This is just like all those "I built a PC specced to a console and it cost $XYZ" It will be interesting if it's totally open and you can install other OSes, like the Steam Deck is.

What you say is true, and I don't dispute the effect more flow will have on the radiator. I entirely agree. But let's hold the flow rates you have constant (because in reality it will be constant, you aren't varying the flow rate in response to anything once you have it in service) and consider...

Hmm.. That is a fair point.
