    FTC fines Razer for every cent made selling bogus “N95 grade” RGB masks

    I have one, I completely wore it to work and other places. I was actually surprised how many people recognized what it was while out at public places. Yea, having to use the app to control stuff was annoying.

    Open Source GPU -FuryGPU

    I found this incredibly interesting, I know there's a few other open source ones I see bouncing around in Phoronix forums, but this seems to be the furthest I've seen one. https://www.furygpu.com/ New open source GPU is free to all - FuryGPU runs Quake at 60fps, supports modern Windows software

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    This thread randomly reminded me of a comic my friend made when we were both in Grad school for Mechanical Engineering (Would have been 2009 I think?). So kind of to say, yea, people are always going to find other ways to do work. That being said, pretty much every job is going to use...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Loving the game so far, think the steam review bombs are just people griping over nothing with the MTX . I'm not having huge issues with performance anywhere besides city, so it runs smooth for me, but if people are I can certainly see that as a reson to not like it. Basically everything I...

    Software update for Cisco Nexus 3000 Switch

    Well there are a lot of Nexus 3K versions out there, what model (I'd guess there were newer versions available, but can depend on the model. The correct way to do it is have a cisco service contract, then go to software.cisco.com and download the appropriate software.

    If the wireless signal strength of a fibre modem is weak, what are the remedies?

    What Fiber ONT are you using (Little confused there since I hear Coax cable and Fiber modem at the same time) Does the ONT you are using from Nokia have a Integrated Wireless and you're using the Beacon , or is the only signal coming from the Beacon 2?

    Valve Steam Deck OLED!

    I have a powerful gaming computer and gaming laptop, and I still bring my Steamdeck with me on trips. For Business trips it's easier to bring along with the work laptop than a second laptop, and for personal trips it's easier to bust out and use for travel than the laptop when going between...

    Microsoft appears to have given up on cloud gaming in the short term

    Well, the real next step in cloud gaming , well, game streaming, is that the servers hosting it will be in your Head End /CO of your Service provider, so the only latency will be in the access network itself, which is generally pretty dang awesome. It's really about the only way for it to work...

    Gigabyte Shows AI/HPC and Data Center Servers at Computex

    I'm pretending that one server is a "Loud/Edge Server". For no particular reason. But honestly, who are these aimed at? Your "cheap" servers that people use are SMC or Advantech (Both are actually getting some nice use in the SP/MSO space these days), and your large companies going with...
