Mullvad VPN had an news update about this and it looks like only iOS devices were affected if you were running Mullvad.

Imagine how long would that take to fill at SATA speeds? Then think about it in some form of raid, it would take forever to fill and so much longer if one failed and you had to rebuild it.

I'm pretty sure I worked for the company that started this trend (at least with printers). In the late 90's a company called Printelligent started the service contracts for printing. So many cents per page black and white or more for color. They would service the printers and keep them in...

I think this is somehow a plot from Sony so they can buy them up cheap. I love the Dragon Quest games. FF games haven't had me hooked since FF7. Most of the rest of their games just do not interest me.

The 4090 and 7900 XTX give good performance for the price, everything else has been pretty awful. The 6700 XT was a better purchase a year ago than anything near it now. The fact that with a specific (awful) sale on Newegg a 7900 XTX was only $800 today make the 4060Ti 16GB for $500 worse than...

I have never had a cap on my home internet connection. I had uncapped DSL (Slow but reliable) where I know there were months where I exceeded what the cap would have been with the local cable ISP. Now we have fiber also with no cap. My family did go over the data cap on our phone once or twice...

But we all know that information will be fed to these "AI" systems because it's easier than actually doing it the right way. Yes they created a rigged test, probably because they know this is how other people/companies using these systems will do it also. It's just a matter of time before we...

I don't really care for Tesla, but this has to be on the drivers. If you can't drive without playing a game you shouldn't be driving. Also the fact that they know how many people are sitting in the car would keep me away from them. Though I expect that that will be much more common in all cars...

My favorite comment I read about this said Nvidia's market cap jumped higher than all the revenue they have ever earned.

I can pull 400-500 mbps through the app at all times on my computer. Not as fast as my Google fiber can connect, but faster than most websites load without it. I like not being tracked and with Google as my ISP there is too much tracking.

Dyson doesn't make bladeless fans, they just hide the blades inside the base of the fans so it's prettier.

Somehow I still think the search will be miles ahead of the garbage Amazon search.

Look into Legendary (https://github.com/derrod/legendary). It allows you to run the Epic Games Store without the launcher installed at all. You can just go to the website and pick up the free games. Epic still knows you are playing the game, but they don't get to track your entire computer like...

I still use Winamp daily, but having a NFT Library option in it is just wrong.

Jack was not the CEO at the time Elon bought it. Twitter was also earning enough to pay it's debts and making money. Not a lot, but enough that if it had continued that way it would have been fine. What ever Elon did after taking over, Twitter does not work correctly the way it used to. I block...

I remember hearing midi played through an AWE32 when I was a kid and having it actually sound like an instrument was playing the notes. I also remember the pcb of the card being so long, probably about the length of the 6800XT in my computer right now.

Based off of the details on Twitter the problem here is the payment to the developer failed because sanctions on Russia right now. MSI are trying to keep it going and not trying to kill it off.

Watching those videos reminded me of the upgrade on the 386 my brother and his friends did to the family computer. Since the case was an 80s desktop case the expansion slots were horizontal (like the case). So the new motherboard with a modern PCI layout (no daughterboard) had to be installed...

Their comment about it being protected by the First Amendment is bizarre. Unless collecting photos/data is a religious or press thing it just doesn't make sense. To me at least. It would be nice to have a rich person fight for individuals rights instead of against them. Now that's a pipe dream.

This is the only advantage CRT had over LCD. Changing the resolution changed the resolution of the monitor and you would just resize it to fit if needed. I can't tell the difference between 60 Hz and 170 Hz. So I don't think this would be a feature I would ever shop for. I also can't see the...

This is why I am looking into Linux to, replace Windows in the future. I can only see any Windows version getting worse as MS tries to catch up to Google, Facebook, and Apple with the data collection. I understand why MS is doing it though. A few years back they were earning more money from...

Edge is just Chrome with a different skin (and less spying than Chrome for the moment). I blocked the stupid Edge new tab page with a Chrome plugin. Just find an extension theme in Chrome you like and add it in Edge.

If a game has an update it will tell you when you try to launch it. Then I just go into the command line and run the update. I have the Epic Launcher installed on my computer but haven't opened it once since I started using Legendary. Having said that time to uninstall the launcher... I can't...

I have 3 games from the Microsoft Store, they all work fine, but I would not want to use the Microsoft Store for anything else. I can get the free Epic games on their website I don't need a different store/location to access them. You don't have to use the Epic launcher at all if you use a...

I use a program call Legendary for installing and running games from the Epic store without the Epic launcher. I joined the discord channel a week or two ago after getting a strange error. Legendary is a command line interface program. After seeing the help requests in discord I am not surprised...

I'll upgrade to this only when I have to. For the first time on my personal PC a Windows and/or Office 365 update broke things that worked just fine before the update. I don't trust Microsoft's internal testing for their OSes anymore. Also if you like minesweeper check out Globesweeper on Steam.

I specifically bought an MSI motherboard instead of Gigabyte for my last upgrade, because they were quoted as saying they are a hardware vendor not a software vendor in respond to a security hole in their MB drivers.

How? You can buy a 6800 on Newegg right now. The prices are not good but there is availability if you want one. No reason for AMD not to make another version that will sell.

The point of Google ending 3rd party cookies is so it can all be Google tracking. The backlash is for Chrome blocking the other companies tracking of you while Google keeps doing it.

Except it already has happened. It was in Germany where a hospital ransom attack led to the death of a patient, https://www.silicon.co.uk/security/cyberwar/patient-dies-hospital-ransomware-347825.

That makes the 1000+ I spent on a Sapphire 6800XT seem like a bargain.

Just snagged a 6800XT off of Roguecast minutes ago!!!!

Got my first selection on the shuffle... slept through the notifications woke up an hour after it expired. Working nights sucks sometimes.

Well for a nice scalping price the 6700XT can be had from Asus for $729.99 link.

There could be another side to this for the CMP products. They might have so many (enough) defective dies that can still mine, but not be usable for graphic cards that they are doing this to sell off the defective dies.

Just increase the volume... it's an electric lawn mower, so it's not very loud.

I picked up the SXFI Air over the holidays. They can do audio via the USB C cable, line in, Bluetooth, or a microSD card. I have been impressed so far with them. They are going to be great when I have to mow the lawn and can just use the microSD card to listen to music.

So nothing that HardOCP received for free was ever honestly reviewed? This is such a stupid take. Every article on HardOCP was for views and attention too, Youtube is just a different platform and format for reviews. Just because you don't like watching videos reviews doesn't mean everyone else...

Do you include reviewers with Youtubers? I watch Hardware Unboxed as my go to review when new hardware comes out, they are my replacement for HardOCP. if it's a big release I include Gamers Nexus as well. They are not perfect but they are the closest on Youtube that I have found to Kyle and the...

From the article: "blocking any service that required users to log in." I guess that's why it worked for me, I don't login to watch videos on Youtube from home. :)
