  1. Larian Studios Cuts Ties with Baldur’s Gate: No Baldur’s Gate 3 DLC, Expansions, or Baldur’s Gate 4, but Next RPG Will “Dwarf” It in Size

    It would be cool for them to do something scifi. I loved divinity, but a bigger change of pace from them would be nice =) Maybe some star frontiers =)
  2. New Storage Tech Enables Discs with 10,000x the Capacity of Blu-ray

    Um something seems fishy there is that a typo? 1024 gigabytes = 1 terabyte But 1024 terabytes = 1 petabit? Bits and bytes have a pretty solid definition 1024 terabytes should = 1 petabyte (bin) = ~8 petabits Being 8 bits to a byte. A researcher working in storage should never get this grossly...
  3. NVIDIA RTX 4080 SUPER Is Currently Unavailable Online for MSRP in North America

    Yeah I agree, its not always a 1st try hit with inventory. I would say I have about a 70% hit rate on instock vs out of stock. But most of the time Im not in a hurry and can wait a week or two if I know they will stock it. Im not a fan of the big two so I wait if needed most of the time, unless...
  4. NVIDIA RTX 4080 SUPER Is Currently Unavailable Online for MSRP in North America

    How about one that is better than both? B&H Photo. Great people, good prices.. and is neither newegg or amazon =) I have been doing business with them since they were only Photo and AV stuff. Great company IMHO.
  5. AMD Zen 5 X3D CPUs Will Reportedly Be Unveiled at CES 2025

    @Zarathustra - I have also seen conflicting items. No new chipset (mostly) and some saying new chipset but extremely little change, like just some stuff like usb4, etc.
  6. NZXT Is Giving Away a Custom-Wrapped One Punch Man: World PC Worth over $4,000 USD

    Yeah liked the series too. Be funny to see a "What if? - OPM vs Goku"!
  7. AMD Zen 5 X3D CPUs Will Reportedly Be Unveiled at CES 2025

    I assume this was to my original post. I read what I wrote and decided I expressed myself extremely poorly =) Post was updated before you replied!
  8. AMD Zen 5 X3D CPUs Will Reportedly Be Unveiled at CES 2025

    Maybe the wording is just confusing: AMD will supposedly unveil its first next-generation Ryzen processors with not only Zen 5 cores, but also 3D V-Cache technology, at CES 2025. But you then go on to say: ..AMD could be launching its first Zen 5 CPUs in just a few months.. I wouldnt call Zen...
  9. Ubisoft Exec Acknowledges the Risks of Subscription Fatigue but Says That Gamers Need to Get Used to Not Owning Games

    Im going to ask about a different aspect of this. If subscriptions were to become the norm for games, I could see this impacting game design for the worst as games would then need to "take a long time" to maximize the money from it. Or conversely the subscription could be very costly monthly...
  10. YouTube Has Begun Punishing Ad Block Users by Slowing the Site Down, Users Say

    Is this happening only on chrome? Does FF work w/o issue?
  11. TCL Unveils World’s First 31″ Dome-Shaped OLED Gaming Display with 4K Resolution, 120 Hz Refresh Rate, and 3D Spatial Viewing Angle

    Based on the angles the curve is presented, I doubt that a top layer could be added, likey just sides.
  12. GTA Publisher Thinks Video Games Should Be Priced at Dollars Per Hour

    Yeah this dynamic would cause game makers to make all kinds of un-fun decisions because of more $$$. We already know people are willing to pay more for cosmetics, isnt that enough money? I mean FFS how much did GTA5 make?
  13. Starfield Runs Better with NVIDIA DLSS, Benchmarks for AMD-Sponsored Game Show

    I would guess the consoles use FSR as well. But maybe not.
  14. Starfield Runs Better with NVIDIA DLSS, Benchmarks for AMD-Sponsored Game Show

    NEWS: Competitors software technology runs better on competitors hardware! In other news: Competitors software doesn't run at all on other hardware! Elsewhere: Water is wet! Seems like if I was a developer I would first implement features that can help all users and implement hardware specific...
  15. Amazon Launches New Health Care Benefit for Prime Members for $9 a Month

    I work for a very similar highly regulated industry, I am very sure that your personal info is not something Google or MS can get info about from our cloud environments. If this was found to happen there would be very heavy fines. Regulated data must have strict controls around access that is...
  16. Amazon Launches New Health Care Benefit for Prime Members for $9 a Month

    I am not referring to things like billing codes etc. I am referring to actual results. I will say Im not sure I have heard the MIB acronym, what is that? There is some motive here, its not free to amazon and they are just bundling it to prime making it "free" to subscribers.
  17. Amazon Launches New Health Care Benefit for Prime Members for $9 a Month

    And that data should not be accessible by AWS or Google for thier viewing. The EMR systems providers need to have encryption on that type of data that is not accessible by anyone. HIPAA type rules.
  18. Amazon Launches New Health Care Benefit for Prime Members for $9 a Month

    If they have it w/o consent then that is a whole ball of wax they don't want. And they certainly have never had my consent. None of my medical goes to google either. BTW - Im not saying they don't have it, but this would legitimize them having it, which is a no-go for me.
