    Today’s game consoles are historically overpriced

    There are ways to make the higher prices worth it. Sadly they arent taking advantage of them. Its more difficult to just buy a hard copy of a game. You now just download it. And we know how that goes. Its not really yours. Games are loaded with the stupid pay to win formula or "extras." I dont...

    Mike Lindell’s lawyers fined after using AI in brief riddled with mistakes

    You know, I have been saying this about police for years. Police can lie under oath, plant evidence, resulting in someone going to prison, for years, for life, or executed. And what happens if the cop gets caught? Rarely are they even fired. Usually they get a paid vacation......I mean...

    Trump is killing broadband grants because some of them help minorities

    Well, he is certainly right about race or minority component to that. Low income household, I'm with you. Seniors, I'm with you, veterans and people with disabilities, right on. But the mere fact that someone is a minority, and that alone, shouldn't be a reason you get free or cheaper internet...

    Matter update may finally take the tedium out of setting up your smart home

    I know right. Or they could avoid the genius workaround of the dumb lock plus camera setup and just go through a window. The risk of someone "hacking" my lock is far outweighed by the convenience of not having to carry keys anymore. I honestly am more confident in my nest doorbell camera, august...

    Matter update may finally take the tedium out of setting up your smart home

    Another zigbee user here. As soon as I got my 3rd smart device, I went all in with zigbee. No having 20 different devices connected to router. This one connects bluetooth that one wifi, ugh. got all my devices connected to Samsung smart things hub. And, the few things I have that arent zigbee...

    Judge on Meta’s AI training: “I just don’t understand how that can be fair use”

    We cant compete with countries that allow their companies to steal........That's not an excuse. Add to that, if I want my kids to become a director and a musician, I cant go online and download every movie, tv show, and music file I can get my hands on and then claim, "Im just training my kids...

    After “glitter bomb,” cops arrested former cop who criticized current cops online

    And this is why we are constantly discovering innocent people on death row. Because when all evidence to the contrary comes to light, when irrefutable dna evidence comes to light, come hell or high water, the police not only refuse to say, "gee, you know what, we screwed up, sorry" No, they...

    Sergey Brin says AGI is within reach if Googlers work 60-hour weeks

    I would love to see his data proving a 12 hour work day is "the sweet spot" for productivity. I would imagine that you get diminishing returns the longer the day goes on. We already have data proving workers as productive and in some cases, more productive working from home. Maybe he got his...

    Nothing explains why the Phone 3a Pro ended up with a giant camera

    I was trying to find a explanation for those expressions......Probably 3 seconds before the photographer snapped the picture, the guy asked the girl if she wanted to go out after the shoot.

    FDA noted unsanitary conditions, unwashed hands at McDonald’s ex-onion supplier

    And this why this country has gone right into the toilet. Our education system is a joke, we are far from the highest living standard in the world. Health care is awful. And the government agency that is supposed to protect consumers, isn't. This shouldn't happen. But when your government passes...

    Home Assistant’s Voice Preview Edition is a little box with big privacy powers

    I find i use my phone to control things more than my voice. Add to that, the echo device in my bedroom, that i've chosen "computer" as its wake word, I have to mute it when I watch Trek as it gets inadvertently woke 3 times an episode.

    Indiana Jones and the Great Circle captures the feel of a great Indy movie

    I kept scrolling down farther and farther and farther, looking for what platforms it will be released on. That seems to me to be, at minimum, basic info you would include in the first lines of a game review. Let alone not including it at all.

    Volkswagen workers go on strike as union fights factory closures

    YES YES YES. I'm watching the news and hearing how these companies are doing AWFUL, and how they are "losing" money. The sky is falling. I'm thinking, hmmm, really? So i look into it. Turns out, what they call losing money, isn't losing money at all. If they profit 3 billion in 2023, and in 2024...

    CEO of “health care terrorists” sues senators after contempt of Congress charges

    Had he shown up to the hearing, and then after, he was charged with some crime......based on him invoking the 5th, he might have some credibility. Or, had he showed up, and then sued because at the hearing, his so-called character and "tegrity" were insanely violated, then maybe. But you cant do...

    Amazon accused of using “false and misleading” sales prices to sell Fire TVs

    I know right. "Amazon tricks customers????" No. Title should be, Customer is mad that other people weren't charged more than what he paid for tv.

    Google kills Chromecast, replaces it with Apple TV and Roku Ultra competitor

    Ahh yes, a fellow Plexer. For us, it's Apple tv, or Sheild. I love my Roku Ultra, but i dont have a lot of 4k, and Dolby atmos content. Every time im in the Plex reddit, every other post is someone having issues with no audio, or buffering. Every single time they are using the built in plex app...

    Xbox console sales continue to crater with massive 42% revenue drop

    I think what is so frustrating is that it could be good. The idea that i can buy a game and be able to play it on xbox or go to bedroom and play it through the xbox app on tv, or go to another room and play on pc. That is a great option. Sadly they have hamstrung the capabilities. Not all games...
