    Linux Developers Threaten to Pull "Kill Switch"

    Not really shocked or surprised. SJW's are infesting every pore of computing industry with their indentity politics BS. Linux is not doing sall that great as it's evolving too slowly and having stupid identity politics injected into it, it'll only get even worse.

    How do I disable HandWriting Recognition and delete the WaitList.dat file? Link inside.

    You guys do realize controls for this are under Privacy section of settings, right? You're also asked about it on Windows install and on every major Windows upgrade. Unless one can prove controls for it don't work as intended, I see no reason not to use it.

    Also, Linux is a full OS. People don't care what's kernel and what's the shell on top of it. And they all share same crappy UX. People don't really care anymore what NT is underneath certain Windows version. We used to care back in Win9x days when NT4.x was so radically different nothing worked...

    When to replace a PSU ?

    Have it plugged to a power surge unit to prevent external electrical damage on power failures and other surges like indirect lightning strikes (PSU has its own internal surge protection, but external one are cheaper and easier to replace), have it cooled well and cleaned well. If these things...

    Razer Launches Ifrit Headset With #noheadsethair Focus

    a) servers don't need sound, which is why they don't care b) I proved nothing except that Linux is garbage for most things, ESPECIALLY for gaming. You also can't call me Windows fanboy because the number of times I've criticized MS and Windows is far greater than I've mentioned Linux. In total...

    Why the F should Realtek give a flying fart about some OS with insignificant user share? And how can you improve that? Certainly not by making the OS absolutely idiotic and unfriendly to use. So, pick one. Misguided discussion? What "misguided" discussion? It's a discussion of using Linux for...

    Bottom line is, I don't frigging care whose fault it is for garbage user experience. The fact is, no matter which distro you're using with what shell slammed on top, they all behave like shit. If I want to update a driver, I should be able to go to Settings, Devices and manage things there using...

    The fact you need to use Terminal AT ALL in year 2018 is the reason I try Linux almost every other year and delete it 15 minutes later because it's designed by morons. But Linux will overtake Windows, next year. For sure! Oh boy I've been listening about this for last 15 years or so... If Linux...

    I'm gonna post here the same line I've posted on that video from Linus... Gaming on Linux is easy! STEP 1: Open Terminal... Aaaaaaand that's why I'm not using Linux...

    CPU/Case Cooling question

    Ideal setup is 3x front intakes, 2x top exhaust and 1x rear exhaust. It gives the best ventilation and follows thermal rules (heat always going up). If you want positive pressure, just make top fans slightly slower than intake ones. With same speed intake and exhaust you're creating a neutral...

    12nm Polaris Refresh Coming in October

    Lol, people still keep on doing this, they look at GCN and it's nope, can't be good no matter what. It's quite funny actually. GCN in HD7000 or GCN in Vega is like two radically different things. But both are GCN. Basically, it's like saying 4 cylinder engine can't ever be good because it's 4...

    12nm Polaris Refresh Coming in October

    The problem with Polaris is, if they make it "too good" it'll start to interfere with Vega 56. So, AMD is kinda in a weird position with Polaris. @HTC Actually, a properly refreshed Vega would still sell. It doesn't have to be better than RTX whatever. RTX cards have such ridiculous price it...

    Wrong fan-setup?! Annoying "clicking" sound on one of the fans?

    Only time it makes sense to have radiator fans turned inside is if you're using single fan radiator and you have it mounted on front top position, so you're essentially pumping hot air into the top part of the case past other components. It's desired then that your rear exhaust fan is up to the...

    Wrong fan-setup?! Annoying "clicking" sound on one of the fans?

    Define "clicking"? I've had Corsair fan in PSU that had spring to hold fan in the bearing shaft and as it was rotating, the spring was skipping over itself, causing clicking on every skip. Then, recently, I've had problem with oscillating noise which isn't exactly clicking when fans were at...
