    Blizzard's Account Deletion Mechanism Conveniently Breaks Down

    You bend, exactly what any other major company did long time ago, otherwise you don't operate on that market. See Google, Apple and well everyone else. It is better to be there even is there is... hmm friction, than not being there at all. Otherwise this discussion wouldn't even exist because...

    Blizzard's Account Deletion Mechanism Conveniently Breaks Down

    Hmm it is hard to say what mas the minimum amount possible of punishment or what are the conditions on the contracts players sign. From what I know the firing isn't due to what Blizzchung did but to how they handled it. Somehow I think they made things worse for everyone but I might be wrong. I...

    Blizzard's Account Deletion Mechanism Conveniently Breaks Down

    We are talking of this because we are in the era of the SJW, were judgement is to be delivered without fact checking in the most knee jerk reaction possible. And stocks react to whatever is in the news and have no meaning, at all. We are talking about this because there is a strong political...

    Blizzard's Account Deletion Mechanism Conveniently Breaks Down

    It is not unjustified to think that money is the motivation, in fact it is their duty by law. What do you think that companies are for? What they do to market their games in China has nothing to do with this. It is a requirement. Exactly the same as GDPR in EU. If you want to work in any...

    Blizzard's Account Deletion Mechanism Conveniently Breaks Down

    Let me guess, you can't provide any example of Blizzard allowing this... This kind of rhetoric helps no one. From my point of view the HK movement have enough merit by itself, there is no need to make unjustified claims.

    Blizzard's Account Deletion Mechanism Conveniently Breaks Down

    This is quite shady... However the Blizzard boycott is wrong on this one. if they allow one political view they are forced to allow others, so If you don't support the ban you are opening the doors to pro-China or whatever propaganda on e-sports.

    Intel Internal Memo Reveals that even Intel is Impressed by AMD's Progress

    Coincidentally there is no real answer to AMD on Intel roadmaps until 2022+

    AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Review Leaks, Shows Impressive Performance

    Wait a couple weeks, look at the reviews and decide, but for god's sake, don't buy a CPU that becomes slower every few months thanks to all the security patches.

    AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Review Leaks, Shows Impressive Performance

    Nothing wrong with that as long as the specs are listed, but neither the CL nor the specs of the other systems are specified. Intel's superior memory controllers usually allow higher memory clocks and If that is the case on those charts I'd like to know. What is wrong with asking for all the...

    AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Review Leaks, Shows Impressive Performance

    10% in RAM latency and 3200 which affects IF frequency, not the best conditions. It looks it isn't even CL14. I'd like info on the older AMD and Intel setups to compare apples to apples. 3200 is low even for Zen+ IMHO.

    AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Review Leaks, Shows Impressive Performance

    3200 is below AMD recommendation for Zen2 RAM settings and latency does not match. Either AMD was too optimistic or that review is pretty suspect.

    Intel Internal Memo Reveals that even Intel is Impressed by AMD's Progress

    Their 10nm is almost non existent by now, and way inferior to their arguably awesome 14++, I will be pretty surprised if in its current incarnation it is able to match clocks, so yeah pretty well suited for mobile, where they are still leading. And of course at low clocks it is easy to stay...

    Intel Internal Memo Reveals that even Intel is Impressed by AMD's Progress

    No longer leading in process. An architecture stagnant and not very efficient. Not leading in innovation (chiplets, IO die...). Lower core/Thread count. Losing the advantage they had in IPC. Higher price per core. They just keep the MHz crown... by now. AMD was barely able to compete with...

    Intel Internal Memo Reveals that even Intel is Impressed by AMD's Progress

    This totally wan't intended to be leaked from the let go of course, but what is it, the script for an infomercial? While giving some credit to AMD, and I think some unnamed recognition to Lisa Su, they are totally disconnected from reality if they really think this thing paints their new reality.
