Grand Theft Auto V is free to claim on the Epic Games Store this week
hamslammer and 2 others reacted to excalpius for a topic
I was able to get in with some refreshes, but my favorite part is when it drops me into a foreign language to do it. Fortunately, I have taken advantage of the Free Games feature enough times that I already knew what buttons to click and so I was able to get my free copy "purchased" even in Chinese.3 points -

They need stop changing sizes every time they come out with something. All this changing to whatever is cheaper (at the time) is creating a lot of confusion in iPads/Mac arena (mostly in the Mac arena).3 points -

I just purchased the Redmi Note 8 Pro myself.. and for a mid-range phone, I have nothing to complain about. Lots of features, (I do like the Game Boost feature) some I might not ever use like Second Space, Dual apps.. etc. And with this phone, if you miss an OTA update/upgrade, you can download the files directly from the Xiaomi servers... which I did to upgrade it to Android 10. Not bad for under $200.2 points -

Huawei is a pretty massive tech company with expertise and production in a variety of fields/markets. I'm wondering if this move is to limit companies US govt can't control. Nevertheless, I hope this prompts huawei to continue to develop Google/Qualcomm free solutions, and contribute to Open Source projects.2 points -

E does stand for Embedded. OEMs who use these for laptops should be taken out back and shot. :: cough cough :: HP :: cough :: Walmart :: cough :: My daughter has been running a HP laptop she bought, must be 4 or 5 years ago now? It has an AMD E1-6010 in it, and initially shipped with 2GB of RAM. I have since upped it to 8GB, but Windows 10 is a dog on it. I think opening Notepad spikes the CPU to 100% lol. That CPU has a benchmark score of 538. The slowest computer in my house that i use is my voice mail server which is an intel nuc Celeron 840 ..and it's score is 9332 points -

Circaflex and one other reacted to GeoffMcN for a topic
32-bit Apps will still run on 64-bit Windows (ARM or Intel), so no change there. This announcement is about the OS, not the Apps. It's all about RAM. A 32-bit OS can only access 4GB of RAM, which isn't much in 2020. The amount left available to running Apps will be less than that (after the OS takes some), and multitasking many Apps at once will be a problem. A 32-bit App can only access 4GB of RAM, but the PC itself can have more. So running many Apps at once is easy.2 points -

The OnePlus 8 Pro's color filter camera can see through plastic objects
cleverclogs and one other reacted to +Dick Montage for a topic
Sony released a video camera in the early 2000s that had a "super IR" feature for better visibility in low light. I bought said video camera for my nephew to use at my wedding. Turns out, if you used the feature in daylight, it could see through certain layers of fabrics. So, this yielded unusable video because: 1) It was all green-tinted akin to a light nightvision effect 2) You could see which ladies opted to not have a visible panty-line2 points -

It's clearly not a simple "color filter" camera. To achieve such thing the sensor has to be able to poke very specific light range and not something you can just do via software filter or something.2 points -

300z reacted to Paul1979UK for a topic
It's just fear from the US hawks, in the 1980's, the US went after Japan because they saw them as a threat, after that, they went after the EU because they saw them as a threat and that tug of war has been raging for decades with no winners, now the US are going after China. It's clear to see what it's all about, any power that is a threat to the US, the US doesn't like, the security issues is an excuse to push their agenda, it's the sign of a declining power not being able to get it's way around the world any more and it's going to get a lot worse for the US once this virus is finished with us because it's clear there is a shift from west to east, the economic fallout of this virus is speeding that up. At a time the US needs friends like the EU, they are messing that up lol.1 point -

Microsoft releases Windows 10 build 19628 to the Fast ring from the release branch

20H1 has new features. https://www.google.com/amp/s/w...ving-spring-2020/amp/" rel="external nofollow">https://www.google.com/amp/s/w...-arriving-spring-2020/amp/" rel="external nofollow">https://www.google.com/amp/s/w...e-arriving-spring-2020/amp/ Is this another one of those cases of, “I don’t care about those things, therefore they aren’t new features”? Oh come on, are the GPU temperature and the hard disk type considered new features? Apart from WSL 2, and those two, everything else came with 19H2 in which they proved they can have UI-wide changes through service updates. When you have a pool of decade old features in the planning (ability to hook to Ribbon UI, pin separate taskbar items in multi-monitor setups, provide the successor of NTFS, rectify registry, redesign File Explorer), and other Windows 10 specific pending tasks (streamline context menus, provide Sets, complete Control Panel migration etc.) and you keep offering build after build with bug fixes for 1,5 year straight, then what does it mean if not that they did what they have already done a trillion times in the past: abandoned ship? If they just want to release bug fixes, fine. What's the point of insider program and full system updates, though? Whether you, I, or anyone else likes it or not: something that was not there before, but is now, is defined as a feature. Personally? I rather see them clean up the mess they already have before adding any new huge features.Still dealing with two control panels, still dealing with an inconsistent UI, still dealing with risky updates....1 point -

Microsoft updates processor requirements for Windows 10 May 2020 Update
waysidesc reacted to RejZoR for a topic
I've had AMD E-450 and it wasn't that bad. I knew it was low end so I didn't have unrealistic expectations. Biggest problem with these was that Microsoft treated them like dog ######. Same with browsers. So in the end you had CPU with capable GPU that didn't really do anything with it, causing trivial things like accelerating god damn Youtube video a non existent thing. Shifting video decode from GPU to dual core CPU meant the thing struggled with everything in the end. If anyone gave a damn about it, it would still be decent for basic stuff like Youtube, office stuff and things like that.1 point -

That's strange. This machine is a Studio 1737 with 4G ram and it runs just like it did in 2008. I'm not willing to give it up because it has a full sized professional keyboard. I have thought about adding more ram, but the 4G DDR2 sticks cost like $130 per. And it doesn't need it. Windows 10 runs just fine in 4 gigs.1 point -

Yeah. You know, I thought the doctors and nurses, and retired doctors who went back to their jobs to try and save lives during this crisis were really going above and beyond. I recently realized just how inadequate the recognition is for their work: imagine you're risking your life, watching your patients, maybe a family member or friend, and colleagues getting sick and dying and wondering whether you're next. Meanwhile on the news you're hearing about these irresponsible ******s blathering on about how it's not so bad, it's a hoax, and "huuurr, MY freedoms are being violated, I'm going to do what's right for ME." And they still go back to the job day after day. WTF? They're the ones who deserve news stories and recognition, not this.1 point -
