I had rear projection TV's back then. They looked like dookie up close.

Yeah, back when standard definition 480x720 was a thing. The larger the screen the larger those pixels became the worse it looked up close.

Depends on the size of the display. I have both 1440 and 4K 32" monitors. I've played games on both. I can't tell a difference other than lower FPS on the 4K

I've played a good bit of it. My only complaint, for now, is the lack of solo queues. I seem to always get paired with people that either A) don't speak english B) have no mic C) have no idea on how to play as a team D) wander off and play solo. Otherwise, it very much feels like "Battle Duty...

Real journalism died a long time ago. Now it's basically click farming with sensationalistic headlines and out of context reporting to fit a narrative. Telling 50% of the truth to portray something a certain way is not telling a lie, which allows them to get away with it free from lawsuits.

I'm wondering what benefit a dual cache X3D chip will offer and how they'll combat inter CCD latency. That was the whole problem with dual CCD parts and gaming. You had to disable one chiplet to get decent performance.

Rick James gets candid about the state of the gaming industry, calls out Charlie Murphy, and wants to make a UNITY2 ring.....

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.

because, underneath it, it's still 10, just worse

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

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...

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

not exactly running through Window setup in an enterprise environment anyways. We do that once, clean up everything that needs cleaning, install what needs to be installed, make an image and deploy that.

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.

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...
