    Arc A770 Beats RTX 4090 In Early 8K AV1 Decoding Benchmarks

    I've seen some cards choke on SW. Several years back had a guy running a 510NVS and it would become unusable zoomed in and trying to rotate models.

    AMD's RX 7900 XT cards allegedly support unannounced DisplayPort 2.1 connectors

    Hopefully not the parent's 'special' home movie...

    Goodbye Origin - EA App is now in session

    So...as long as it's one of those specific required launchers/stores, you're good? Any others can go die in a fire? ;)

    China's SMIC semiconductor manufacturer achieves "breakthrough", producing 7nm chips despite sanctions - Update: moving on to 5nm

    Key point right there. Attack subs LOVE unescorted carriers. To add, our navy has been doing this for a long time (blue water ops) and under actual combat to boot. China, not so much...

    Do your firmware updates before installing KB5012170

    I take it you guys don't have updates pointing to an internal SCCM server and blocking Windows updates at the firewall and through GP.

    Unity is merging with a company (IronSource) who made a malware installer

    And governments DON'T do shitty things? In my experience, there is nothing more hazardous to one's freedom of expression and freedom period than government. They are a necessary evil but need constant restraint to keep them from going all banana republic right in front of you.

    Senators call for US to follow EU's lead in creating a national standard for phone chargers

    US law applies to the US and is not applicable to Europe. I would laugh my ass off if it came about that Android makers had to license Lightning in some flavor from Apple so that we had a unified standard.

    The Balls on Intel...

    Not to be picky, but fascism is literally the OPPOSITE of no government. I believe anarchy might be the word you're looking for? And best not to assume what level of training some of us might or might not have for kinetic situations. ;)

    Senators call for US to follow EU's lead in creating a national standard for phone chargers

    I see you don't understand how it works. If it's NOT listed in the Constitution as a Federal power, it defaults to the states or the individual.

    Problems with large nvmes in windows 11?

    Upgrade or clean install? I did an upgrade and have regretted it ever since-some serious issues with network slowdowns over time as well as apps like Steam just quitting and unable to start without a restart of the system.

    5800X3D gaming review
