    Houston, we have a problem.

    Me neither. I prefer GoG's offline installers and DRM-free ethos.

    That's why Offline Mode exists.

    Pre-Arrow Lake Xe iGPUs abandoned by Intel

    Isn't this just for on-die or integrated graphics? So if you have a standalone or dedicated GPU, does this matter much?

    Steam Winter Sale 2025

    Battletech is fun if you're into turn based combat and big stompy mechs (and have a passing knowledge of the tabletop game it is loosely based on). But you'll get more enjoyment from the complete game with all DLC. Just my 2c [Edit to add: I've probably gotten several hundred hours of...

    TEAMS on windows 11 SUCKS!!!

    Alt-Enter is a thing - for those that don't know. Ctrl-Enter is supposed to be the new "Send" (according to the tooltip), but plain old Enter still sends a message. MS Teams is a dumpster fire we're forced to use at work. I'm not a fan.

    CDPR Hopes to Finish the Upcoming the Witcher Trilogy Within Six Years, but Don’t Plan on Seeing Anything at This Year’s The Game Awards

    I might give that a shot, or even better, if they allowed the player to define the character's looks and choose from a variety of dialog responses. I absolutely abhor Geralt as a character. I'm not opposed to the lore. They've already introduced other witcher non-player characters, so their...

    CDPR Hopes to Finish the Upcoming the Witcher Trilogy Within Six Years, but Don’t Plan on Seeing Anything at This Year’s The Game Awards

    Tell me ... how does one finish a trilogy with the fourth title in the series? That's a bit of a misnomer, don't you think?

    The 10 Most Influential CPUs of All Time

    This. Program with Assembler or go home. Apple Basic was bugged.

    ASUS Goes Retro with Its ProArt PA401, PA602 Wood Edition PC Cases Available in Select Beige or Retro Brown Colors

    We used to call those "luggables" not "portables" ... both for the Compaq and Osborne varieties. Just because you put a handle on it, doesn't make it portable.

    Valve's NEW Steam Machine...

    It's kind of like a Gantt Chart, except less linear. 😁

    Three most popular hardware items on Newegg (all three may surprise you!) on Nov 02, 2025

    Isn't it just too coincidental that the prior top 3 products were a gaming computer (laptop), a 24 TB hard drive, and a GPU. This second list of top 3 includes products in the same categories, albeit with a desktop instead of a laptop. Coincidence or, as Brian suggests, deceptive marketing...

    Which DOS games do you remember playing in the 90s?

    Good news for you. GoG has MOO and MOO2 currently on sale at bundle price of $2.39 ... that is, if you don't have a copy that works on modern computers.
