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...
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
While watching the vid I was also thinking "geez, these updated graphics look like hot kaka". Quake Live has better graphics, and that's browser based lol
Just looking at how bad it performed in multi-threaded applications it has zero chance of making any headway in the desktop market. And only 2.7% faster than the snapdragon.
Most everything application wise is moving away from being single threaded.
There could be smaller maps for lower player counts. Nothing is mentioned about that though. I think only PUBG does that now.
I'm hoping this 25 man squad deal is a specific game mode, and solo's are a thing.
Couple other things I don't particularly like.
1. The zone is instant death. This is going to make maps extremely small no matter how big they are. People won't be able to spread out as much for fear of getting unluckily caught by the zone. While this will increase game pacing, it's going to...
I was excited for this, until they announced it's just going to be another Warzone. Why can't they keep it simple? Drop in, loot, survive, kill, win. None of this loadout nonsense. Knowing EA they'll find some way to make it pay-to-win with "exclusive guns in this weeks Battlepack".
Wish I could do that with Spectrum. They're the only option other than DLS. They have us by the short and curly's, so they won't apply any promotions to lower our bill. I pay $115 a month for 600/20 service.
Our VM environment is mixed use. We have several thousand SQL instances though. Instead of managing SPLA licensing ourselves we use Azure agents that report directly to M$ and get a considerable discount for doing so.
