Palmer Luckey says AI should be allowed to decide who lives and dies in war "There's no moral high ground in using inferior technology"

Microsoft continue improve their latest and greatest OS. Too the worse. There is no bottom on how bad it can be. Windows 11's newly revamped Start menu design is annoyingly large The new Start menu is being rolled out to all users on Windows 11 25H2 with no option to keep using the old design. And Microsoft want to take care of all your apps/software/drivers and firmware. What can go wrong bro @Mr. Fox?🤔 How will this go when you know they introduce new bugs after every damn monthly patch update. Windows 11 now wants to have the ability to update all the applications you have installed on your PC Microsoft wants to give Windows 11 more power, granting it the ability to manage updates for all applications installed on the system directly from within the operating system

Be sure you use microscope on your Asus GPU if you send it in for an RMA. Very important if you opened up the card and slapped on a WB. If you are lucky you may get an replacement card from Asus for 50% discount. Damn, good deal. Isn't it? ASUS quoted $4,661 CAD to replace RTX 5090 ASTRAL over tiny PCB crack, customer calls it design flaw

I usually prefer offset and full vcore. But for daily use you'll need to use the curve and reduce the power limits with the XOC vbios. I would prefer a fully working voltage slider. It's what it is,,,, Asus screwed own customer base. They put in all the works into firmware tuning to try stop the Matrix from working with all their other 5090 SKUs, hence they also failed lock out all the other cards from other brands as they hoped for. What we just have seen is only the beginning of what Asus is capable to do for their next gen cards. Full locked down firmware for each SKU to differentiate the cards from each other. Just make minor changes on the PCB and there you go. Or Nvidia find new ways to let their partners lock you out from cross-flashing and shunt mods.

If you use an connector upside down you see the same if you route the cable over the backplate. Damn fragile... CM quality. Hence they later had to go outside the connector/cable specs and create the stealth feature for their 12+4 pin custom cables. Fasgear..... QC and quality matters if you go with 3rd party cables. I expect many have a ticking bomb...

Done🙂 Ths is propaganda. The big fat lie. Intel admits it needs more Core Ultra 200-series wafers — 'If we had more Lunar Lake wafers, we would be selling more Lunar Lake' Intel this week reiterated that it cannot meet demand for all of its client and data center processors due to insufficient supply, and specifically mentioned that it could use more Core Ultra 200-series Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake wafers to increase shipments of appropriate processors. Not much better than... Consumers Should take a break spending their har d earned money on Mem/prebuilt computers. Buy only buy what you really need. And if you can.... Spend less money. That will help on the greed. Edit. Yup, you see me and GN see it the same way. Only differet wordings. Corruption ain't enough. The U.S citizens/tax payers money are in stake (from 17:00). On top the citizens/consumers have to pay more than ever for modern tech. This is Disgusting. Pure evil! And the worst part is... The citizens won't get any help from their own government adm to stop this. Because they are deaply involved into this corruption and messed up situation.

More E-cores, much better iGPU and much better NPU. Intel will deliver in loads of what you want/hope for. But probably no HT for now. Happy ?😀 But, for a quick summary, you are looking at new P/E-core architectures, along with the advanced 'Celestial' Xe3 iGPU architecture, and a 5th-generation NPU onboard, which will take edge AI to a new level. However, Intel has been decent on the mobile front; however, its market share has declined on the desktop. Intel's Next-Gen CPU Roadmap Will Be a Lot More "Competitive", Driven By Generational Upgrades

And still very smart. Linux creator Torvalds thinks Elon Musk is 'too stupid' to be working at a tech company

Yup that also works. But the HW reviewers at HardwareLux did the same. The card melted anyway😀 But I guess, the chances for wear out being better if you do it that way. Worse if you want put the card in the box while you use your other cards. The tiny connector is trash!

More on this. Yup, exactly as good old Gigabyte... ZOTAC rejects RTX 5070 Ti fan-issue RMA over “limited tools” and PCB scratches, then offers to dispose of the card Second e-mail. Zotac will be peased to help you to dispose the card. Better say, will you buy another one?😀

Work in progress🙂 I may need make an newer OS when I have the time. The old Windows 11 version I have ain't the best for some of the more "modern" 3DMark benchmarks. I may have some time for it in the Christmas holidays. But not what I want to spend my time on. Everyday I see new bugs pop up for the new and shiny buggy mess from Redmond HQ. So maybe it's better wait a year, LOL http://www.3dmark.com/pr/3734586 Great times forwards for pc consumers/gamers. Buy more and get more as Jensen say🤮

Too good to be true? And if the connector works as they claim.... When will we see them in the glabal market? CM also claimed their 90 degree adapters was fantastic and reliable. Segotep's Titanload 12V-2x6 cables use heavier-duty pins to prevent meltdowns — brute-force approach purportedly drops peak temps by up to 72% This is nice.... It just follow today's new norm. AMD's problems return: AGESA 1.2.8.0 causes critical crashes and forces several manufacturers to recall their BIOS versions. Could this be the problem that halted shipments of the ASUS ROG MATRIX RTX 5090? We're talking about an electrical buzzing or chirping sound. It's not a problem, but it does suggest poor quality or rather inadequate quality control for a graphics card that costs €4,099. https://elchapuzasinformatico.com/2025/12/asus-detiene-venta-rog-matrix-rtx-5090/

Windows updates keep breaking, and Microsoft's "agentic OS" isn't helping Microsoft's latest patches risk turning the full Windows 11 shell into a non-functional disaster for enterprise customers Microsoft admits major Windows 11 25H2 UI features broken too alongside 24H2 on some PCs

I probably could but the xx.85 is more for benching. I'm not so much into gaming anymore. And I also love play with the older cards I have. Connect and then disconnect the tiny trash connector several times doesn't make it better for benching in between the older cards with the 5090. The fragile connector destroy the fun. Every time you swap cards the connector will wear out. Thanks good I have the "overpriced" pin monitoring😀

What with a “plain” TX-1600 ? Doesn't this sku being cheaper than the Noctua edition?
