    AMD RX Vega 64 and RX Vega 56: Will “trade blows” with GTX 1080 for $499

    This release is a joke. We needed the new amd gpus to perform on par with nvidia 1070 and 1080 at a CHEAPER price. Hopefully amd is charging an ultra premium trying to make an extra buck bc of the cryptomining craze. (We need amd to make money from gpu sales). This value proposition by amd...

    AT&T imposes another $5 rate hike on grandfathered unlimited data plans

    It's $40 just for the unlimited data + the voice/talk plan + text plan, so yeah $40 is expensive especially considering we are throttled and don't have hot spots. Which I considered to be a part of unlimited data. When att sold me unlimited data they didn't say hot spots weren't included (bc...

    Teen arrested for iPhone hack that threatened emergency 911 system

    I think it's pretty damn funny that an 18 year old could have take down the 911 system. "18-year-old suspect characterizes it as a prank, but police aren’t laughing." If i was the cops I'd be laughing my ass off at how bad the security infrastructure is for 911. I say give the teen a medal.

    AT&T’s throttling victory may hinder FTC’s power to protect consumers

    the original att unlimited data contracts did not specify if the unlimited data would be throttled or not. in my opinion, the carriers do not have the right to handle [throttle] the speed [data] as they see fit if they had originally contracted in good faith to not throttle unlimited data...

    Blizzard takes zero-tolerance stance on Overwatch cheating

    blizz banning wow cheaters is a fucking joke. I used to play a very long time ago. When I played 10 vs 10 pvp battlegrounds there could be 18 bots (which is really pathetic bc I ofc did not bot - so it was more like 1 vs 1). and blizz did nothing. blizz just let the cheaters play. it was bots...

    The LG G5 and Galaxy S7 won’t support Android 6.0’s adoptable storage

    Ars was briefly hacked yesterday; here’s what we know

    I don't believe that password is as secure as you think it is. You need symbols (!@#$%^&*), to make it truly secure. also what good is having a uber strong password if the reset password is not strong. what is your email password. how strong is that ?

    Apple to GT Advanced: “Put on your big boy pants and accept the agreement”

    you have to remember GTAT was on the ropes right before the apple deal was announced. so when the deal was reached, GTAT had almost no option but to accept the deal. and apple knew this.

    Civilization: Beyond Earth—Next time, reach for the stars

    1. I am not new to Civilization games. 2. I understand that the computer gets certain advantages, and the player gets certain disadvantages based upon the difficulty level. I am not talking about this. I'm talking about how the AI cheats. 3. I am playing a fairly standard game without any...

    Civilization: Beyond Earth—Next time, reach for the stars

    I am currently playing CIV 5 for the first time. Have played 67+ hours (steam keeps track of hours played) in the past week. It is a good game, but not a great game. The main problem all these "strategy" games have is that the AI cheats. And when I know the AI is cheating, it really pisses me...
