  1. Deliver at All Costs Is an Isometric 1950s Themed Action Game Where Mass Destruction May Be Inevitable While Getting the Job Done

    I liked the part where he was delivering a nuclear warhead, and people were running behind him to "stop" him and inadvertently set it off.
  2. Hogwarts Legacy 2 Likely Happening, as Warner Bros. Discovery Reveals It’s One of the Company’s “Highest Priorities”

    I will bet someone said, "It's going to be different this time...this is a perfect live service type of game." And the execs just swooned, covered in sticky stuff, and approved it.
  3. Intel Core Ultra 200V Series CPUs Detailed

    Once more, my god, who in hell is in charge of naming these CPUS? These names are so dumb, so idiotic that only an intel manager would come up with that.
  4. “Absolutely Wild”: Intel Says It Could Take Up to Five Weeks to Replace Defective Core Processors

    BINGO! I had delayed returns for customers on my Intel Woes BINGO card.
  5. Intel Core i9-14900K Microcode 0x129 BIOS Fix: Before vs After Performance Benchmarks

    Great writeup as usual. This is "a time will tell" scenario if this was a placebo or if it indeed worked. I can't help but wonder if this is akin to putting lipstick on a pig and declaring it is fixed. Slight changes all of a sudden will prevent degradation (if a chip has not been degraded...
  6. Squirrel with a Gun Launches with a Higher Peak Player Count than Concord on Steam

    A squirrel using a bazooka on a man's head to jump to the top of the house. Sign me up!
  7. Half-Life 2 RTX Gets One-Hour Gameplay Video from Gamescom 2024 and Nova Prospekt Trailer from NVIDIA

    Portal RTX looks super nice as well. I have a Radeon 7800xt, and I can run it at medium ray tracing, but it looks super sweet--especially the cube.
  8. AMD Radeon RX 8000 Series “RDNA 4” GPUs Will Feature up to 20 Gbps GDDR6 Memory, It’s Claimed

    I"m reading that it could be equivalent to 7800xt or 7900GRE but with faster ray tracing (and at the same price). So your 7900 xt and xtx you should still keep.
  9. GTA VI Could Cost More Than $70 and Set a New Pricing Standard for the Games Industry, Baldur’s Gate 3 Dev Says

    According to economic theory, if demand goes down...then prices SHOULD go down. This is not what we are seeing here. Nearly everyone has been resistant to dropping prices hoping to sell at the maximum dollar. My wife and I are looking to buy a Subaru Outback and our local Subaru dealer has been...
  10. AMD Ryzen 7 9700X/7700X to Deliver up to 35% Improved Gaming Performance with Windows 24H2 Update, Benchmarks Show

    So the takeaway is that Zen 4 is so well-engineered that it almost future-proofed itself.
  11. Microsoft Says the End Is Nigh for Control Panel, Nearly 40 Years After Its Introduction

    Now I remember what the Windows Settings remind me of....the Windows phone. I used to have a Nokia Windows Phone and the UI is very similar.
  12. Microsoft Says the End Is Nigh for Control Panel, Nearly 40 Years After Its Introduction

    Windows settings is a maze of trying to find the exact functionality you need to do. For example, I need to access the network adapter to tweak some ip4 or ip6 settings. Holy-hide-and-seek-Batman that thing is buried in multiple pages in Settings. This is not an optimal UI design. It is neither...
  13. Starfield Rolls Out New Update with REV-8, a Land Cruiser with Powerful Mounted Turret

    I tried it out this morning, and the first thing I see is a hilarious neon "missing texture" for all the planets in the system map. A simple restart fixes this problem, but I was laughing seeing that. I played with the vehicle and of course the game crashed after i used the vehicle booster to...
  14. New Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season Two Trailer Teases Return of Sauron and Legendary Siege of Eregion

    I don't understand it either. Amazon harps season 1 as a success. Disney is losing money with their insistence of DEI agenda, but they continue to push that manifesto even when things burn around them.
  15. AMD Ryzen 7000 and 5000 Series More Likely to Fail than 14th Gen Intel Core CPUs, New Data Suggests

    All I see are numbers of CPU failure, and no details of what issues the CPUs experienced. I seriously doubt the veracity of their report. They stated that they overclock...so does this mean maximum overclock? Stable overclocks? Modest overclocks? What? What kind of issues did they experience...
  16. “Painful”: Intel CEO Confirms He’s Laying Off 15,000 Workers as Part of Cost Reduction Plan to Increase Efficiency and Market Competitiveness

    Yeah DOW was in a freefall today. However, AMD stock went up...I'm hearing the Jaws theme over there over Pat's head.
  17. “Painful”: Intel CEO Confirms He’s Laying Off 15,000 Workers as Part of Cost Reduction Plan to Increase Efficiency and Market Competitiveness

    While that typically happens, a sign that things could be changing is that the intel stock took a rightful beating today. If this continues, Pat will not get his golden parachute.
  18. Seven Samurai Slices Its Way onto 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray on October 21

    I'm getting this one. This and the original Magnificient Seven are on my 4k list to buy! Fun fact: Lucas cites this movie (along with the old serials) as an inspiration for Star Wars.
