Sounds like Xbox is not very profitable anymore. Ask any gamer and they would say this isn't a pro gamer move. Raise the price of Game Pass? Anyone can tell you that you'll lose subscribers faster then you'll make back from the price increase. Putting games on all platforms is a good idea...
Seems like Microsoft has finally found a reason to require TPM 2.0. It's also funny because in terms of security you'll find that Bitlocker is useless.

I haven't bought an Asus product in over 10 years. There's a reason for this. Multiple reasons actually. Besides Asus stuff breaking often, it is a pain to get anything RMA'd. Also compared to other companies, I feel that Asus charges more for less. It's one of those situations where Asus...
The Vision Pro isn't a bad product, but the Meta Quest 3 is just better and for a fraction of the price. What you're seeing is buyers remorse because while the technology behind the Vision Pro is extremely impressive, the software for it is not. Vision Pro doesn't support VR gaming like every...
If you're in the market for an Apple Vision Pro, you may wanna check Ebay.

"On Wednesday, a 1TB Vision Pro, complete with all the included gear, Apple’s fluffy $200 travel case, $500 AppleCare Plus, and claimed to...
People right now owe money. Like the kind of money that hasn't been seen the Napoleonic Wars. Prices are high and people are starting to cut corners. Subscriptions are going to be the first to go. All this money lending did was push people to take on larger loans because people felt this...
Apple's crushing ad isn't going well with the public. Personally I don't see anything wrong here.

Question is why put M-series chips in a tablet? Even in the Macbook Air the M3 gets to 113C, which will thermal throttle in no time. So it seems kinda stupid to put something like an M-series chip in a device that's according to Apple, their thinnest device ever made. As Marques Brownlee puts...
You saying I imaged the Copilot pop up that came up from the bottom right? This ain't a fast laptop, so when that popup showed up I panicked because the laptop slowed down drastically. Opening up a web browser on this laptop is a time consuming process. I don't want any system resources being...
He could be outside on his laptop, touching grass. It would be super uncomfortable, and the sun will make looking at the screen super hard plus the bugs and everything.
It's a hobby for some, but a business for many others. Nobody likes their work flow interrupted by an ad about Copilot...
Like I said, for them to put M2's and not M3's or even M4's suggest that they have a lot of M2 chips laying around. I'm guessing the M2 was their least popular M-series chip Apple sold.
Kinda looks like an M3 with focus on AI. Gotta wait for benchmarks.
This is like saying Windows 98 Second Edition is superior to Windows 98. Windows doesn't change all that much between versions. From Windows 95 to Windows ME, it's nearly all the same OS. Windows 2000 and XP are also nearly the same OS. Windows Vista to Windows 11 are nearly similar, and so...
As many men who play as female characters in WoW have said, what would you like to look at for hours, a mans butt or a womans butt? This is also why the need to race and gender characters is a really strange method to gain more people buying your games when the men like to play as blue skinned...
The problem is just getting away from Google search. Nothing else is as good. I would suggest Waze because it's really good as picking up cops.
Microsoft left it's own ecosystem, multiple times. Remember Games for Windows Live? Remember when Microsoft gave up on Internet Explorer and...
Nobody truly knows how much it costs AMD to make these cards, but it can't be as much as they're asking for. The problem is that AMD and Nvidia are asking a lot more than what consumers are willing to pay for. For several years it was the GTX 1060 that dominated Steam, and now it's the RTX...
Not really, it's just that not many people are aware of alternatives. With Revaned you can log into Youtube with microg. You can also use NewPipe which also blocks ads but you won't log in. You can download apps from Aurora with or without logging into Google. Even apps like Eufy now work...
I'm ready for a price war. AMD certainly needs to price lower as AMD has confirmed that "Radeon GPU sales have nosedived". I can see why MSI left AMD.

That'll be an interesting turn of events. For a while now, both AMD and Nvidia has released high end cards first, and then later mid to low end. Nviida only releasing their RTX 5090 while AMD releasing their mid range products, would be an interesting turn of events. Especially when you have...
You don't actually need to sign into your Google account. I have a few devices where Google isn't logged in. It does create some problems like some apps use Google services but it's not enforced. Though the reason I don't log into Google is because I don't have the Play Store installed. The...
The games were pretty innovative for their time. The puzzle solving and combat was like nothing before it. The problem was that as Tomb Raider progressed to 2 and 3, it got more flashy and less about puzzle solving. The games were still good, just not as good as the original. Having a female...
Nobody was upset for switching over to Windows 10. There were good reasons not to, like some software isn't compatible with Windows 10, but otherwise Windows 10 was solid. It was also a breath of fresh air over Windows 8 and 8.1. The problem with Windows 10 was the telemetry data collection...
The image is fake but the ads are real. Microsoft had wanted to inject ads into Windows 11 and they're now doing it. It doesn't matter if the image is fake when the results are the same. Microsoft had ads in their Insider builds of Windows 11. May not be ads in file explorer now, but...
"Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining". Maybe Microsoft should stop putting ads in Windows 11? I like how a few pages back some people attacked me for pointing out a fake ad image. It's the children that was wrong, right guys...
The reason these sell well is because Intel is sorta the gold standard for a lot of enterprises. AMD still has the advantage so far with better battery performance and better prices. Here's an AMD Zenbook 14 vs Intel's Zenbook 14, but the Core Ultra does have a better screen. The Intel with...
As bad as Meteor Lake was received by the tech press, it's apparently selling very well. It may not be as fast as their older chips, but it's very power efficient. It may not be as power efficient as Apple, but it's good enough for like 99% of people. Along with good GPU performance and AV1...
The 7600 uses 6nm, while the 7700 and up uses 5nm. The 7900 XTX name is so stupid that Gamers Nexus made a joke about it. While the 7700 and up look like upgrades over their predecessors, the 7600 still seems to be barely a performance upgrade over the 6650 XT. And yet, like Nvidia, the 7600...
Apple shouldn't have a problem making a version of MacOS that is touchscreen friendly. MacOS already runs iOS apps, so it's not like iPad owners would lose functionality.
I really doubt the M3 is much different then the M2. Boards for Macbooks with M2's and M3's look nearly identical. I...
The 7000 series cards are stupid, but so are Nvidia's 4000 series cards. The problem with AMD and Nvidia is their best selling cards are the previous generation, and Nvidia is selling a lot of RTX 3060's. The 7600 XT is just barely faster than the 6650 XT, but so is the 4060 vs 3060 Ti. AMD...
Gonna say some things that will upset the Apple fanboys. If Apple plans to put an M3 or M4 into their tablets then they should put MacOS. Those chips are far too capable to be saddled by iOS. I also believe Apple isn't selling these M based devices as much as they'd like. If Apple is putting...
The question is why? It's not the latest version of DOS. It's not even 6.22 which is popular. There's been free versions like FreeDOS, which is the preferred way to flash a bios. Windows doesn't even use DOS.
I agree but the problem is that the $320 price for the 6700 XT does fall out of peoples prices range. For example, good luck finding a regular 6700, because you can't. You can't even find them used on Ebay, and the 6700 XT is the cheaper choice because it's abandonment. Anyone who bought a...
I knew there was something up when they showed limited benchmarks. They showed mutlicore scores but not single threaded? Even the GPU tests were done with questionable choices.
I don't see why this company deserves to survive after ruining the Tomb Raider franchise. Lara Croft doesn't raid tombs.... and she got a breast reduction. It also seems like they went the Sonic route and gave her friends. What is wrong with these clowns?
I don't blame MSI. Nobody is buying AMD cards over Nvidia. The prices are not competitive enough to warrant someone buying their GPU's. The RTX 3060 12GB is a really good card that you can easily find cheap. The only cards AMD has that are 12GB are the 6700XT's and those aren't cheap. I can...
Blizzard went the Ubisoft route and was releasing games for the sake of releasing games. OverWatch 2 never needed to be a thing and World of Warcraft expansions are not bringing the boys to the yard. Blizzcon are for people who only play Blizzard games, and those people scare me.
Why you...
