    OpenAI Names Emmett Shear as CEO, Sam Altman Joins Microsoft and Drags Hundreds of Employees With Him

    Their AI didn't like the next guy, so did what AI does and corrected the situation, regardless of what the talking meat puppets wanted.

    DOOM Turns 30, John Romero Releases SIGIL II

    I worked for a software publishing company which included games and 'edutainment' titles across all platforms, including PC. Wolf was okay, but when Doom released with multiplayer support, I was hooked and can recall clearly my first interaction with multiplayer and couldn't believe my eyes, I...

    OpenAI Names Emmett Shear as CEO, Sam Altman Joins Microsoft and Drags Hundreds of Employees With Him

    My understanding is that one of the founders was behind his firing. Altman was pushing for less safety controls and the founder was able to fire him. If true, sounds like the founder did the right thing in protecting the company and public. Now, let's see what MS does with a guy who wants...

    What's your latest tech purchase?

    These are great. Good performance, quite and last a long time. I've bought half a dozen over the years and they are all going strong. I've bought and tested other brands, but keep going back to Liquid Freezer.

    Gigabyte Reveals the AORUS Gen5 12000 SSD

    I don't get the negative comments about the heat sink. Graphic cards had to add heat sinks and fans, PC cases had to add fans, CPUs had to add heat sinks and fans, Power supplies had to add fans, but for some reason adding a heat sink to an SSD is unfathomable. Personally, I have many of these...

    Gamdias Announces the ARGUS M4 Mid-tower Case

    None that I can find. If the case is stuffed under a desk or on top of the desk, either way a USB headphone cable is going to be bent.

    Cooler Master HAF 700

    I've had this case for 6 months and have to say it is, by far, the best case I've ever had and I've been building PCs for decades. It's silent, but more importantly, the air exiting the case is always cool, never hot and this is a first for me. I have a 4090 Supreme liquid AOI on the top of...

    Intel Arrow Lake-S to Feature 3 MB of L2 Cache per Performance Core

    So, a 10% increase in performance vs. last generation, as per usual for decades now? I'm not being sarcastic as I've not delved into the numbers and just assume more of the same I've grown accustomed to over the years from Intel.

    Arctic Liquid Freezer III series are coming soon?

    I'm looking forward to a new version.

    Intel Wants More Than its Fair Share of CHIPS Act Money

    This subsidy, like all others will never end once started. Intel will have their hands out in perpetuity, like all others who have done the same and politicians who control it will build dynasties from which you'll never get rid of them and their brood. Invariably people will wonder why Intel...

    Inflection AI Builds Supercomputer with 22,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs

    31 megawatts of juice required, that is enormous amount of power required and to what end? I wonder if adding this demand ups the cost for residential power.
