Is this for certain?  I remain skeptical of it, the only benefit I see is the better performance on DX12/Vulkan.  Even then, it's not by much.

It has very similar performance to the 1060 with added benefit in DX12/Vulkan for $50 less. So yeah, it's worth it unless you want that little bit more performance.

« on: August 12, 2016, 12:31:38 AM »

having the DEA, who makes billions of dollars off of having marijuana illegal, make the decision to keep marijuana illegal, is a very direct conflict of interest and should have been given to the FDA instead.

It doesn't matter because PC players will be able to play with PS4 players in the same universe.

So who loving cares what system you get?

You should ask yourself that considering you've been complaining about what systems people are using.

Literally tony right now


Implying the rabid 12-year-old toxic COD culture that permeates through basically every console game is somehow comparable to some vague "PC Community" that you pulled out of your arse. Go on, give me your anecdotes and I'll give you ten times as many. Because guess what, the "PC Community" you talk about is the entirety of the internet.

he says amir was unfairly banned
but he was botting, not just on his main account, but on multiple alts, which was against the rules, and then lied about it to all of the admins/superadmins. so yeah, that's a legit ban.

then he says he was unable to edit his base to make his drugs accessible. There are definitely ways to do this without having a super admin intervene. FOR EXAMPLE... Just delete the drugs and wait until they're gone. Wow! Problem solved.

good gaming computers are around $1000 while a ps4 is like, what, $300 - $350?

Absolutely false... A PS4 is still $430 new and you can make a computer with just-as-new parts that's much better for that much money.

Just to clear up a little confusion, this means that Win10/8/8.1 is equally as secure to rootkits and related malware as Win7 is, not that Win7 is more secure.

btw, considering a lot of people is saying its built on lies, what if the planet numbers are lies as well? :0
what if the numbers are actually way lower than what was announced

even if there was one one billionth the number of planets we'd never find out or care because the claimed number is so huge

As far as I can determine, this does not affect Desktop/Laptop machines running Windows 10 in any way, shape or form. Microsoft does stupid stuff all the time, but at least the OS is solid.

It doesn't affect the OS itself, no, it affects the bootloader. "Secure Boot" is basically Microsoft's specially-made bootloader that's supposed to protect against rootkits and other related malware. With this key out now, Secure Boot has been completely defeated in the sense that it's no longer "Secure" against rootkits and other related malware. It's just "Boot" now.

The fact that Tezuni requires you to PAY to get certain jobs easier is garbage. Also, he uses the word donation to try to cover his ass. Its not a donation. Its a microtransaction

It's a one time donation to get the ability to get an extra job. That's just a regular transaction...

« on: August 11, 2016, 12:01:42 AM »

Honestly, Kotaku probably gets a lot of money off ad revenue. I'd reasonably pay a thousand dollars for it, bleed some of the ad revenue off of it and then sell it off to someone else.
