How about either
  • A. Build a functional feature and not force it on users of the new OS
  • B. Not invest in such shit product and causing dram shortages across the world, leading to RAM price hike
I genuinely think he is the worst tech giant ceo that I’ve ever seen, right up there with Elizabeth Holmes, Sam Bankman-Fried (cringiest name I have ever heard), Andrew Wilson, and Yves Guillemont

Kinda forgot how long PS4 has been out now. Guess it’s too much to ask that the PS5 Slim could be cheaper than what the original cost more than five years ago.
Difficult for them to do in the US given we've been through double digit inflation since 2020. As it is, I keep hearing that prices are going up on everything. I think the 1st PS4 was 2013. And they're still supporting it while talk of a PS6 is around now?

And every day my decision a month and a half ago to buy my new pc then instead of next summer is validated.
Yeah, I used to tell people electronics are never a hurry. Wait maybe as long as you can and you'll be able to either buy at the same price better stuff or similar powered stuff at a lower cost. Not so sure now. I got a 4TB SSD a year ago for my PS5 for $200. Now they want $400 for the same thing. Thanks A.I.!

ITMT: A.I. will prove to be a bear for the white/brite collar class. A buddy was just laid off in software sales. Good luck to him.

So a few days ago, Ubisoft's Rainbow Six Siege was hit with a data breach from FIVE DIFFERENT hacker groups

Amidst the chaos, there was also a wave of unfair bans

It's been over a week, and the servers have been compromised AGAIN!

This is one thing that you shouldn't let loose, Ubisoft! With all the money, you guys can't pay for better security? And you guys want us to get comfortable with not owning games....

They need all that money for the coke, whores, and yachts, they keep buying. They worked hard to screw all those people over./sarcasm

Specs for the Bond game


So, 12gb vram needed, but recommends the 8gb 3060ti. And you only get 1080p60? Yeah, I'm shaken, not stirred.
I am personally just barely above the recommended specs;

Kinda surprised I have RTX 3080 w/ 10 GB of VRAM, but the game is asking for 12? Is this telling me 3060ti is more powerful than 3080?
Other than that, I am just above the processor req, and exactly at 32 GB of RAM.

This better be one impressive-looking game.

The speed differential between the 3060Ti and the 3080 might make up for the 2GB vRAM. Sure it has less space to load shit but the 3080 should process it faster anyway. Other than that, I dunno, aside from feeling vindicated that 32 is the new 16 in system RAM these look like really attainable specs. Like when your recommended GPU is two generations old - admittedly for 1080p60 - then at least you're not being an asshole to your base. Like 1080p is still the most popular resolution to play on last I looked.

Mind, I'd like to see what the 4k60 specs are.

1080p 60FPS might be the most popular, but I feel like we've been sitting at that for a long ass time. My first PC build 14 years ago was gunning for that with a GTX 1070. Now, I know that games have come a long way since then, but you'd think the norm would've reached 1440p or 4K by now given how much time has passed. Instead it feels like we've largely stagnated (at least in the high visual fidelity space)

I can't even tell the difference. 1080, 1440, it all looks the same to me. I can tell when the fps is better but that's it.

I can tell the difference, so I'm not sure what you're getting at?
I know I can.


Unless that Wolfenstein 3 is ignoring the Youngbloods game, I'm not interested. Sure as hell not interested in the Siege style multiplayer game either.

Sony has not learned a damn thing. Nobody wants this, and can look up video guides and GameFAQS guides for free.

I'm jsut saying all this push for 4k gaming, ray tracing, sparkles and fireworks....i cant fucking tell. None of that matters, game good? okay cool. Game not good, i don't care how many K's it has.

I mean, its nice to have it and I do notice, but do I want to drop like 2000$ for the hardware and willing to accept more expensive and slower released game for that? Heck no.

And Nintendo's assist options don't rely on AI to do it, they just do the thing. Why would they even cram AI in there except to lose customers because AI, at this point?
