    Would you ever go back to LCD after experiencing OLED?

    Lots of articles out there on this. Example: https://hothardware.com/news/oled-display-breakthrough-eliminate-burn-in May take a little while to trickle into current displays, but should put the burn-in issue to rest for good. I still feel the whole burn-in issue is waaaay overblown. My LG...

    And expect Memory prices to explode

    The thing about tech is that it always advances - becomes cheaper/faster/more capable as time marches on. These price “scares” and supply doom and gloom write-ups always seem to go no where. If it gets bad, manufacturing capacity goes into overdrive and self corrects… may take a little time...

    Latency Pipeline, "Input Lag," Reflex, & Engineering Interview

    That’s just Kyle. You get used to him after a while. :D

    Star Citizen - media blowout, Chris Robert's new game

    Oh, dreams are fine. Keep right on dreaming - no need to wake up, unless it is to buy more ship bundles to feed Robert's machine that is. :) There's just not a whole lot to do with those ships inside a limited, non-optimized, bug ridden alpha test demo is all... one that's been in...

    The Apple Vision Pro goes on sale in the US on February 2 for $3,499

    Had Apple been smart, they would have priced it at something like $899 instead, taking a fairly large loss per sale, but making up for this by generating instant and massive market share gains in the VR/AR space in a very short amount of time. They’d also be able to lower their sales losses...

    Star Citizen - media blowout, Chris Robert's new game

    At least the showcase has tangible goods that contestants get to take home if they win... With Robert, not so much. More like playing the game of repeatedly handing over your cash for wishes, hopes and dreams.

    Star Citizen - media blowout, Chris Robert's new game

    So I guess their thinking is that if you are already $10K in the hole from past ship "investments", then you are dumb enough to go for a new $48K ship bundle package?

    Anyone else disappointed with this seasons game releases?

    Bought but haven’t played Baldurs Gate 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. Figured they are now well baked as to patches/bug fixes. Looking forward playing them over the holiday season…

    The Talos Principle 2

    Going to sit out TP2 until they add VR support. That’s what made the first one so enjoyable for me.

    So, what are you rocking for VR?

    I also have a Varjo Aero (upgraded from a Valve Index after Varjo finally dropped their prices to a more reasonable level.) My PC VR journey started with a HTC Vive, then a Oculus Rift, then the Valve Index. Now the Aero. Currently powered with what's in my sig below. I'm very happy with...

    Pixel 8 / Pixel 8 Pro / Pixel 8a

    Did the same - upgraded from a Pixel 7 Pro to a Pixel 8 Pro + free Pixel 2 watch. While not a massive upgrade, I feel the improved screen, cameras (which are already amazing) and a bit better performance/battery life will be worth it.

    Starfield

    Looking forward to playing it, but in no rush. Will let it air out a bit once released - as it will probably need a good 4+ months to get past the slew of patch cycles it will need to address all the release bugs and added fixes. This is Bethesda, and as a major release, I'm pretty sure it...

    Nvidia RTX 4090 power connectors melting?

    Going on 9 months now with zero issues. Pretty much the same stance from my last post on this. The design works, but the built-in safety margins for handling a sligtly sub-par connection or solder joint simply just doesn't cut it, hence all the reported issues. Still think they should have gone...
