Too expensive, no matter how colorful, attractive, and stylish it is. These things have gotten out of hand price wise, with added gimmicks, colors, glass on the back etc. Hey, it's YOUR money, spend it wisely.3 points -

Judging by what your wife mostly plays, I believe a Ryzen 5 1600 AF (Link) + B450 motherboard & GTX 1650 SUPER should suffice. Also for a mild overclock a cooler master hyper 212 LED (Link) will do good. To power the system, a 450W PSU (Link) will be plenty.1 point -

stadii reacted to DramaInc for a topic
I’m just boycotting publishers that do anti consumer things now, and not even just related to streaming. There’s no good reason to do this kind of thing except that they want to force extra sales, and lets be real, how many people are actually gonna purchase things multiple times specially when forced to. ive rarely double purchased a game and that was cause switch and pc versions. But for streaming, never.1 point -

SXSW 2020 is the latest major conference to be canceled due to coronavirus
dead.cell reacted to adrynalyne for a topic
The flu is more dangerous, how exactly? One of the issues with comparing something to "flu" is that there are a bunch of flu virus strains floating around, and whatever strain ends up being prevalent during a given year can vary quite a bit in severity. I think the generalization here is that due to the sheer number of people infected annually, flu kills more during a normal year than the cov-19 virus has ever. Some strains that have gained notoriety such as the 1918 strain, or the 2009 strain were particularly deadly. One of the issues with letting a novel virus spread among large human populations is that many viruses constantly mutate and can recombine with other strains. This is a common way for viruses to leap species: picking up a gene that allows efficient entry into, or replication within human cells. Given a large enough pool of individuals to replicate within, natural selection can take place and breed in favor of even more virulent strains, which then amplifies the problem further. This is true the Flu has infected and killed more. But lets look back at the following: 1. Covid-19 was discovered in December 31, 2019 and has a mortality rate that is 2-3%. Confirmed infections are already above 100 thousand. The Flu has infected more but on average the mortality rate is 0.1% and there is a vaccine to help with it some. 2. The more we let it spread and not try to slow Covid-19 down, the larger chance that it gains the same foothold the Flu has. I mean, the math says it all. Instead of the deaths being 10s of thousands per year, it will be millions. Does the Flu still sound more dangerous? in 1918 the flu had a 3.5% mortality rate... difference now is we have treatments for it so technically the flu is worse, but we can treat it better.. the flu is estimated to have between a 2 and 5% mortality rate with zero treatment or preventative care, and that is a fact. Covid-19 has similar mortality rates, WITH current treatment and preventative care. So again, please answer the question. How is the Flu deadlier? If it spreads as much as the Flu has and there is no successful treatment to lower mortality rates, it will kill millions per year, not thousands. That’s a fact too in as much as your “fact” is.1 point -

They probably see this as impacting any possible sales from Stadia or some other cloud streaming service. Why would I even bother with Stadia when I could just buy a own the game via steam and stream it in the end?1 point -

DramaInc reacted to Brandon H for a topic
why do these publishers want to ruin such a good thing?!? We bought your games so we should be able to play them how we like. Geforce Now is great for playing if you no longer have a powerful enough computer or are on the go. What's wrong with that? Pure greed wanting us to purchase games again and again that's all this is. Google/Stadia is probably bribing the publishers to try and promote their own streaming platform. There's no other reason I can think of for why this keeps happening all the sudden. Edit: so much for buying Borderlands 3 anytime soon. You just lost your guys at least 1 sale 2K. I was finally gonna buy it now that it's coming to Steam but don't have a powerful enough PC to play it directly currently so was planning to stream it through GeForce Now ...1 point -
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary PC review: Best way to experience the classic
DentedAphid7 reacted to Geezy for a topic
Only if you care about the story. At the time it was novel but right now it feels very old. Having to collect health packs, the areas feel small and limited by today's standards, not much to do other than arcade shooting action, and the story is very campy. It's a big nostalgia trip if you're into that. I wonder if anyone is sticking with the multiplayer though, that might be fun to check out the maps again but man does it look old and basic.1 point -

Galaxy S20 Ultra estimated to cost Samsung $528 to produce
samw61 reacted to dirtyvu for a topic
The difference between $1400 and $528 is not the profit margin. Samsung does not sell a phone for $1400 to Best Buy who then turns around and sells for $1400 to the consumer. There are a heck of a lot more costs than the bill of materials. people lose sight of what msrp is. Msrp is the price that the manufacturer thinks is a reasonable price for their retail partners to charge so that the retail partners can benefit from selling the product. For a retail, it's typical to mark up 50% (for an item the retailer buys at $100, they then sell it for $150 to consumer). Because you have to account for rent, paying staff, etc. As a business owner, I still cringe when people go, "why don't you sell a $100 item for $120?" because I don't want to just break even. I need to have money to put food on the table. Who would go through the pain of owning a business if you only made $10k a year? Even minimum wage workers make more than that.1 point -

Here's what's fixed, improved, and still broken in Windows 10 build 19577
zhangm reacted to NXTwoThou for a topic
I'm in the same boat with one of my machines(Dell Inspiron 15 Gaming). I had switched back to the slow level and it updated fine. I just decided to go ahead and switch back to Fast a few seconds ago and going to see if this one installs correctly. PUC_Snakeman, unfortunately, the failure point is after the first reboot. When it restores back automatically after failing, the file is lost. ..and nope. Same 0x8007042b blocking since December error, zero byte setuperr.log. Switched back to slow. The important bit is it's still in the "investigating" notes on the latest build. I've been pretty bummed that they removed the "investigating" from the optional driver update section showing an update available to the same driver version that's currently installed. Every build I record and occasionally I add feedback details listing the build tried(and failed). https://aka.ms/AA7kq2l1 point -
