I'm not sure the popularity of Github vs Gitlad, but whenever something isn't kosher then it's banned. MaNGOS a WoW server was banned on Github, so then it ends up on Gitlad. Yuzu was banned as well as forks, so they end up on Gitlab. Native ports of Mario 64 were banned from Gitlhub, and the...

You mean they can't quickly email their employee's to not deny repairs in a single day? Might as well send them a letter in the mail in that case. Test them again in a year.

€1,500 base price? I would expect something like €600-€800 for this kind of device.

Gamers Nexus should just do another RMA test to see if they're actually enhancing anything.

Influence is long term, but also not a product people want. When Microsoft thought it was time to cash in on that long term influence, they had destroyed the Xbox brand. It's like Internet Explorer and Windows Mobile where these projects had long term goals of influence, but were also left for...

OpenAI was more or less bought. Microsoft hasn't done anything with nuclear fusion other then sign an agreement to purchase electricity from a nuclear fusion generator when it becomes available. Microsoft's problem is they want to not focus on their product, but instead want to expand it's...

Surprised nobody is talking about how you can now replace LPDDR memory. It's called LPCAMM2. https://youtu.be/K3zB9EFntmA?si=X3Twp3z0gGc-1s5O

I'm still figuring this out. I'd have no problem putting in Linux and placing a bunch of icons on the desktop, but that's not dumb enough. Tried to see if Kodi with plugins would work, like Slyguy and Netflix plugin. Not the user interface I was expecting. It's like browsing through file...

Roku maybe my last resort if I can't get everything working in Kodi. The problem is I'd rather have a full blown PC with Linux+Kodi, if that can do things like Netflix+Hulu+Disney+ and etc. And of course a decent remote. I have Jellyfin and forgot about MythTV. I'm not even sure if MythTV is...

I have a RPi Model B which means it has an amazing 512MB of ram. I tried to use it for Kodi, but if you don't pay extra for the decoder stuff it's slow. I did buy the decoder unlock codes, but it was still slow. I also have two RPi 3's, which has an eye watering 1GB of ram. I tried Ubuntu on...

At this point I think ARM should be happy it corners the mobile market, as it's always done for decades. It's insane to see the lengths people will go to promote ARM, when there's no benefits and lots of incompatible software you can't run. Apple's biggest problem with their M-series is...

The past 30 years says otherwise. Yuzu may have been shut down but it turns out they were doing some terrible things in the background. The Yuzu guys were exchanging roms openly. Other than Super Nintendo, we've seen emulators come out during the consoles life cycle. UltraHLE was released...

Looks like Gigabyte does the same thing. https://youtu.be/5bYjHbQ1YjU?si=HAgTGp_P1NrKGT9M

What if you can play Switch 2 games on Asus Rog? It wouldn't shock me if a Switch 2 emulator emerges within a year of release.

Not really. The way it worked is that it still needed an actual N64 rom of Mario 64. It would then decompile and extract assets in order to create a native port of on PC. It did give the option to use HD textures instead. Now it's moved onto other N64 games like Majora's Mask...

Nothing new and Nintendo has cracked down on the ports themselves. I remember a Github that would port Mario 64 for use on Linux, and that was taken down. https://youtu.be/NKlbE2eROC0?si=0qqszcBuJsQc85Q4

I don't know. I'm not saying that Asus has the worst build quality, but more often than not I see these boards just die. Even people with Ryzen based Asus motherboards seem to just quit. Even Buildzoid thinks that MSI is the motherboard manufacturer who hasn't given him issues. He also...

I go by personal experience, which sucks because that means I learn the hard way. Also, no manufacturer will stay consistently good, assuming they were good. What often happens is that once a company has a fanbase, they will often start lowering the quality of their products, while also...

Sounds like Xbox is not very profitable anymore. Ask any gamer and they would say this isn't a pro gamer move. Raise the price of Game Pass? Anyone can tell you that you'll lose subscribers faster then you'll make back from the price increase. Putting games on all platforms is a good idea...

Seems like Microsoft has finally found a reason to require TPM 2.0. It's also funny because in terms of security you'll find that Bitlocker is useless. https://youtu.be/wTl4vEednkQ?si=A8Cq8TVMbtmXxti5

I haven't bought an Asus product in over 10 years. There's a reason for this. Multiple reasons actually. Besides Asus stuff breaking often, it is a pain to get anything RMA'd. Also compared to other companies, I feel that Asus charges more for less. It's one of those situations where Asus...

The Vision Pro isn't a bad product, but the Meta Quest 3 is just better and for a fraction of the price. What you're seeing is buyers remorse because while the technology behind the Vision Pro is extremely impressive, the software for it is not. Vision Pro doesn't support VR gaming like every...

If you're in the market for an Apple Vision Pro, you may wanna check Ebay. https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/27/24142810/apple-vision-pro-ebay-low-prices "On Wednesday, a 1TB Vision Pro, complete with all the included gear, Apple’s fluffy $200 travel case, $500 AppleCare Plus, and claimed to...

People right now owe money. Like the kind of money that hasn't been seen the Napoleonic Wars. Prices are high and people are starting to cut corners. Subscriptions are going to be the first to go. All this money lending did was push people to take on larger loans because people felt this...

Apple's crushing ad isn't going well with the public. Personally I don't see anything wrong here. https://venturebeat.com/virtual/apple-slammed-by-users-over-ipad-pro-crush-ad-fascist-aesthetic/ https://youtu.be/ntjkwIXWtrc?si=U7xpX0J00Jo5EbAY

Thank you. Willing to bet that at some point this tool will get blocked.

Question is why put M-series chips in a tablet? Even in the Macbook Air the M3 gets to 113C, which will thermal throttle in no time. So it seems kinda stupid to put something like an M-series chip in a device that's according to Apple, their thinnest device ever made. As Marques Brownlee puts...

You saying I imaged the Copilot pop up that came up from the bottom right? This ain't a fast laptop, so when that popup showed up I panicked because the laptop slowed down drastically. Opening up a web browser on this laptop is a time consuming process. I don't want any system resources being...

He could be outside on his laptop, touching grass. It would be super uncomfortable, and the sun will make looking at the screen super hard plus the bugs and everything. It's a hobby for some, but a business for many others. Nobody likes their work flow interrupted by an ad about Copilot...

Like I said, for them to put M2's and not M3's or even M4's suggest that they have a lot of M2 chips laying around. I'm guessing the M2 was their least popular M-series chip Apple sold. Kinda looks like an M3 with focus on AI. Gotta wait for benchmarks.

This is like saying Windows 98 Second Edition is superior to Windows 98. Windows doesn't change all that much between versions. From Windows 95 to Windows ME, it's nearly all the same OS. Windows 2000 and XP are also nearly the same OS. Windows Vista to Windows 11 are nearly similar, and so...

PSN is only accessible from 73 countries out of 191 countries. So you're saying this isn't true?

As many men who play as female characters in WoW have said, what would you like to look at for hours, a mans butt or a womans butt? This is also why the need to race and gender characters is a really strange method to gain more people buying your games when the men like to play as blue skinned...

The problem is just getting away from Google search. Nothing else is as good. I would suggest Waze because it's really good as picking up cops. Microsoft left it's own ecosystem, multiple times. Remember Games for Windows Live? Remember when Microsoft gave up on Internet Explorer and...

Nobody truly knows how much it costs AMD to make these cards, but it can't be as much as they're asking for. The problem is that AMD and Nvidia are asking a lot more than what consumers are willing to pay for. For several years it was the GTX 1060 that dominated Steam, and now it's the RTX...

Not really, it's just that not many people are aware of alternatives. With Revaned you can log into Youtube with microg. You can also use NewPipe which also blocks ads but you won't log in. You can download apps from Aurora with or without logging into Google. Even apps like Eufy now work...

I'm ready for a price war. AMD certainly needs to price lower as AMD has confirmed that "Radeon GPU sales have nosedived". I can see why MSI left AMD. https://www.pcgamesn.com/amd/radeon-gpu-sales-nosedived

That'll be an interesting turn of events. For a while now, both AMD and Nvidia has released high end cards first, and then later mid to low end. Nviida only releasing their RTX 5090 while AMD releasing their mid range products, would be an interesting turn of events. Especially when you have...

You don't actually need to sign into your Google account. I have a few devices where Google isn't logged in. It does create some problems like some apps use Google services but it's not enforced. Though the reason I don't log into Google is because I don't have the Play Store installed. The...

The games were pretty innovative for their time. The puzzle solving and combat was like nothing before it. The problem was that as Tomb Raider progressed to 2 and 3, it got more flashy and less about puzzle solving. The games were still good, just not as good as the original. Having a female...
