    New 12V-2×6 Device Featuring Load Balancing Technology Could Be the Cure-All for 16-Pin Connector Meltdowns

    I have to admit when thinking of it from an appliance standpoint you are totally right. What other product would a fire risk be acceptable? if this were a vehicle (and lets face it it's dang near cheap vehicle pricing) this kind of risk would be triggering a recall.

    More than Half of Those Surveyed in the U.S. Claim They Only Buy One or Two Video Games a Year

    I mean on reflection... this isn't wrong. But I also install open source/free games (no sailing involved.) Get a **** ton of free games during the year... Have a TITANIC backlog of games. And every blue moon buy a game set from humble bundle (tho less so lately because it's turned more...

    Microsoft Removes the Ability to Install Windows 11 via a Local Account; Online Accounts Are Now Required to Complete Setup

    So I guess all workstations for air gapped secure environments will stop using Microsoft and go to something like redhat with a friendly shell on top of it for the end users that need to run on airgapped local only systems. I'm ok with this. Tired of MS making it harder to be secure for...

    New 12V-2×6 Device Featuring Load Balancing Technology Could Be the Cure-All for 16-Pin Connector Meltdowns

    Wait so this 80 dollar marvel doesn't make the connector better but makes it safer to be bad. And Nvidia can't add this to their designs and OEMs because.... it's too expensive on a 2k card? Every company with a 12vhp port should be licensing this for their cards. The cost to...

    Xbox President, Sarah Bond, Comments on Game Pass Profitability and Reveals That the Service Hit a Record Sales Figure Last Year

    It's going to be a balancing act for sure. Increased cost by 10 bucks a sub... looses... 10% of subs... so cost increase or 33% to the remaining 90% of subscribers is still a win for MS. BUT... if they loose more than roughly 30% of ultimate tier subscribers (lets presume they just...
