    Battlefield 6 Debuts with over 747,000 Concurrent Players on Steam and Gets over 260 Fixes with Its First Patch

    I've been enjoying it. Even more so now that they're cracking down on Cronus / reWASD use and banning people. About time a dev took a stand.

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

    I might buy 1-2 AAA titles at launch every year. Otherwise I wait until they are heavily discounted or free on Epic.

    Intel Is Expected to Share Details About Panther Lake This Week, as Rumored Specs About the First 18A Node SKUs Grow

    Intel has cared more about using less power than being faster. The whole P-core and E-core thing is just odd. Fine for office PC's, not so much for gaming. If they want to get the gaming crown back they're going to have to focus on power over economy. I don't see them doing that with their...

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

    We use InTune and O365 to manage everything. We can send someone a laptop with a fresh install of W11 that hasn't gone through setup. All the end user is doing is connecting to their network, logging in with their O365 account, InTune takes over and pushes all their software. Easy peasy

    EA Confirms $55 Billion Buyout Deal, and According to a Report, the New Owners Are Banking on AI to Reduce Operating Costs

    Depends on the wording of your employment contract. Some companies allow employees to cash out PTO thereby assigning a monetary value to it. Most companies don't allow that and assign no monetary value to PTO until it is used.

    EA Confirms $55 Billion Buyout Deal, and According to a Report, the New Owners Are Banking on AI to Reduce Operating Costs

    A lot of companies are moving away from accrued and rollover PTO to a un"limited" PTO platform. And they're not paying out any accrued or rolled over PTO. They did that to us. We had people with 8+ weeks accrued that just POOF'd. When you have hundreds or thousands of employees that's a lot of...

    NVIDIA RTX 50 SUPER Series Might Debut at CES 26, Launch Between March-May, and Has Been Spotted on the Seasonic Website

    Well, yeah, right tool for the job applies. All I use my GPU for is gaming. And for my needs at 1440P 16 GB is more than enough.

    NVIDIA RTX 50 SUPER Series Might Debut at CES 26, Launch Between March-May, and Has Been Spotted on the Seasonic Website

    16 GB is not an issue at 1440. I can max out settings for every game in my library. TBH, I tried a few of my games, side by side, on two 32" monitors. One 1440, other 4k. I honestly can't tell much, if any, difference in quality. Maybe, slightly, in some instances is the 4k better. YMMV
