    NVIDIA Builds Exotic RTX 4070 From Larger AD103

    This was the "see it really was a 4080 and not just a renamed 4070 to try and get more money out of it!" maneuver?

    Target joins Best Buy and discontinues sales of DVD's and Blurays

    I mean are those formats just dying? Or is the place where you are buying them just what is changing? I feel like back in the day Target was simply that place to impulse by a movie that I see was released, but something like the Harry Potter collection I'm looking for that sweet deal that...

    They have exactly one store in California, in Tustin(?) which is in southern California near Disneyland or so, which is a 7+hour drive one way so effectively not available to me

    Microcenter is coming back to the Bay Area!!!

    I know this applies to very few [H] people, but those of us who remember the glory days of not only a Microcenter but also a Fry's in close proximity, well the grumbling about Microcenter deals is now coming to an end. They're supposed to be opening up in Santa Clara "late 2024" so yippee...

    AT&T notifies regulators after customer data breach

    MASSIVE 61.44TB SSD Puts Puny Hard Drives to Shame

    Dont get me wrong, I love the idea which would almost eliminate any nvme ssd woes, I just don't like the idea of spending $100 per space as a premium to have more ssd usage. Granted I realize I'm not the target audience for this but still. Oh well I still got 3 free m.2 slots anyways in case...

    Rainsing Canes gift cards for over 30% off.

    Isn't that the true with most fast food these days? Ok maybe the size of a big mac didnt change but prices are through the roof. Hell I won't eat KFC unless I go through their mobile order because they actually have a reasonably priced bucket if chicken for $10 instead of $20

    Net Neutrality expected to be reinstated after officials vote on 4/25/2024

    Not having data count against a data cap that you have I feel is fundamentally different then prioritizing data. One allows Xfinity streaming shows without hitting your cap while Netflix does count against the cap, the other is giving priority to Xfinity while slowing down Netflix

    Net Neutrality expected to be reinstated after officials vote on 4/25/2024

    Fortunately it did cause backlash because said people paying are upset they dont get a perk that they bought, and people who dont are upset that it takes forever to get on rides that usually had 10 minute waits at most. The thing is the backlash isn't going to stop people buying because they...

    And look how great Lighning Lane at Disney parks are, people get to pay to have priority, but so many want priority that no one actually gets priority, so you got two groups getting screwed, those who dont pay more and end up waiting forever, and those who do pay more but they arent really...

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    Just an aside. Using calculators on a test is not a college policy, that's 100% on the teacher involved. If your college is small and only one teacher is teaching that level then yeah you could be hosed big time if you have a "this is the way I did it when I was a student" type of teacher. I...

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    What about those who specialize in history, ones in math, science, arts, etc etc? Civilization wouldn't be on any downward trend, there will still be plenty of other people to take up the good fight, there are plenty of people who would generalize, but the whole point of college is to focus...

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    See but you came from a direction of being focused on STEM, I had a very generic high school experience where I didn't really have a "track" at all, so I had the "all arounder" experience in high school, and in college I don't feel those GE courses I took really did much in the way of making me...

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    Well to be fair the ultimate goal from college is to be specialized in a singular subject, but ever the money grubbing institutions that they are you are forced to take classes in no way related to your subject all to make you a "better rounded student". If I wanted to be a better rounded...

    New Book Remembers LAN Parties and the 1990s 'Multiplayer Revolution'

    Elon Musk Sues Open AI and Sam Altman for Breach of Founding Contract

    Musk always kind of rubbed me the wrong way, I was never a "fan" of Musk, I felt too much like a new "House of Jobs" type of corporate worship was on the horizon, but for me my view of him took a drastic dive after the whole Thailand cave divers incident, where he in all his arrogant AF wisdom...

    Elon Musk Sues Open AI and Sam Altman for Breach of Founding Contract

    So what you're saying is some private entity, Musk, wanted to buy controlling stake in this company... but now he's upset that some private entity bought controlling stake in the company. I means it's almost like he's a hypocrite or something.
