Wheres the OCZ/Indilinx/jMicron early SSD love/(hate)?
I had an OCZ Vertex 2 64gb (0 issues)

UPS has SurePost and FexEx has SmartPost....both USPS and the UPS/Fedex guys are doing the last-mile delivery for hundreds/thousands of small packages from other logistic networks each day...its kinda funny but also really awesome.
its fun, a lot like l4d2
guns are way better than in l4d2
the card perk system is fun and adds variety
not a lot of bugs in this weekends alpha
5/5 would test again
Id put the 3080 over the 2080ti at closer to a 25% improvement, and the 3090 (24gb) over 3080 (10gb) at a 5% improvement...but math is hard https://www.techpowerup.com/review/evga-geforce-rtx-3080-ftw3-ultra/28.html

Freakin laser-beams in your hard drives! LASERS!
Intel spent some of their resources making an interesting new flash-style game. It looks to be a mashup of marketing slides promoting their BFLOAT16 instructions, combined with Space Invaders or something.

The supercar market is hot now, I think the recession is affecting the sales of the Model 3 and X more than it would a new Roadster...but that's besides the point. The bigger problem would be hitting that 1.9 second 0-60 time, while also hitting 250mph....Sounds like that would need the dang...
Funny, its been a running joke for the past year+ in electric/performance car circles that the new Tesla Roadster is very far away (years) from production.
Even Elon mentioned it here https://www.motortrend.com/news/tesla-roadster-delayed-elon-musk-interview/
Theyre busy making other...
An app called Tesla Dating is currently in the works, made exclusively for verified Tesla owners. The app's set-up is akin to that of Tinder or Bumble, except the only people that appear on the app are fellow Tesla cult followers...
Anyone remember when NVIDIA used to be cool and throw LAN parties for their GPU Launches?
They rented out a parking lot in downtown San Jose for the G80 launch, and hired PDXLan to throw a killer LAN Party that kicked off the era of DX10 gaming/computing with the 8800 GTX.
Now they just...
Millions more people are installing malware-laden apps from the official app stores than from sideloading.

Do you realize that the two app stores have a much higher percentage of having malware hidden in random apps I might install, compared to the minimal amount of apps I would manually side-load from obvious trusted sources? Your argument is backwards.
Epic was recetly valued around 17 bill vs Apple at between 900 bill and 1 trill. A long legal battle realistically cant cost more than a few hundred million, right?....lawyers billing at $200/hr,
40hrs/week 50weeks/yr
400k per lawyer per year, or 10 mil/25 lawyers per year.
Epic is trying to...
Y'all are doing it wrong. The Paintbrush Method is the only right way to apply/smooth thermal paste. I even remember when Newegg sold Rosewill TIM in a finger-nail polish-type bottle with a little brush attached to the cap. Someone needs to bring that back.
