    I’m mulling a new PC build. Is there a point to water cooling if I’m not going to overclock? Is overclocking even a thing anymore?

    can you feel the struggle within?

    There was an earthquake?

    Yeah a 3.1 from Edison.

    Apparently NYC/Staten Island folks felt it but I didn’t feel anything?

    The big Xbox seems very niche to me. It seems to rely heavily on devs bothering to make their games scale with the extra power, which doesn't seem likely for third party stuff

    Huh! Surprised they're launching the Smol alongside the Bigboi.

    When you can say you launched the cheapest next gen console by over $100 (probalbly $150) thats how you win.

    True IF MS was the only game in town but Sony is there without a lower end console and they marketing the high end.

    OK, I have actually had this 1070 card since early 2017. *self-rationalizing*

    I think I have a 650W PSU though, seems they recommend a minimum of 750W.

    I'm actually a little surprised they didn't delay it to launch with Halo... 7? The new Halo with that grumpy looking guy.

    Also I am very sleepy cause I've got a weird recursive loop going on with Xbox names - I swear the One X was named after the One S, but the Series X isn't the One X and there's now a Series S, so they're like different things and

    oh hey did they add a Share button to the controller?

    Oh brilliant

    I wonder if anybody has ever deliberately pressed the share button on a PS4 controller

    I was slightly restless last night maybe it woke me up without me realizing it

    I was awake and nada. My dog didn’t even react.

    I also live on the 7th floor of my building so I would’ve assumed I’d felt some swaying.

    And it's essentially just a PC, so it'll probably like the PC version with high settings.

    OK I looked it up, the One X came out years ago and is unrelated to the Series X, which is the new one, because they cowarded out on calling it Xbox Two. Cool!

    I want a disc drive on my console because that's how I play DVDs and Blu-Rays.

    I'm mad as hell it doesn't have a VHS cassette slot as well.

    What a terrible naming scheme

    they're reusing names already and picked two letters that sound almost exactly the same

    It has a better UI and tutorial, but it is still overall the same game. If you bounced in the first hour, then this could click.

    I don't really have a problem with downloading all my games, though. I own two hard copy PS4 games, both of which I bought with the console as part of a bundle. It's the fact that I'd have to get another piece of kit to play movies that would annoy me into buying the non-disc version.

    Burpette's preschool dropped a dvd of photos of her time there off and we have no way to read it. I'll have to take it North at some point to my dad's museum of outdated technology so I can stick it on THE CLOUD or maybe a usb stick

    I don't honestly use all that many dvds these days either. Everything is streaming or digitally available somewhere.

    It's not impossible. I may take it if I ever go to the town centre again.

    Not everything is streaming, and things that are are often not for long on any particular streaming service, and if it's older than a few years the version you're watching may be atrocious because it's not like Amazon care about your viewing experience.

    The convenience of replacing DVDs with seven different subscription services with ever-changing libraries of varying quality is a space saver in the home but not a fantastic improvement otherwise.
