I don't know why they bother with this sort of statement as it just makes them look duplicitous. If they had just said: "yeah, people were…

While cheaper, they are both infested with advertisements in the interface last time I checked.

The issue only affects 4k@120Hz, but that is the resolution of this display. If you were using that mode then you were using HDMI 2.0 with…

SteamOS is also an immutable distro, and isn't widely supported with non-Valve devices.

No DisplayPort, so a poor choice for a Linux machine. If the USB-C ports can carry DP that might be viable (maybe with an adapter) but not…

256GB also back up, although it won't process payment successfully. Maybe others will have better luck.

If it's a desktop PC, I would expect the power consumption from leaving it on 24/7 would exceed the power consumption from a mini-pc or NAS…

It's probably not bad general device, but it depends on the chipset. I've been running a RTL8125 PCIE card for a year or two without issue,…

> It doesn't make sense to stick with the vanilla 9070 unless your other hardware is holding you back somehow, or you only game at 1080p.…

Ethernet is the last chord you want to remove. It is far, far superior to Wifi, especially given the router you have seems to be pretty…

There's also a few RX 9070 non-xt models that might be worth a look at that the Afterpay code applies to, such as the [Sapphire Pulse…

Spec sheets and the user manual seem to be pretty vague about BT codec support, but it seems to support LDAC (and SBC of course) at the…

I don't own this pair, but potentially lower latency and better range would be the benefits compared to BT.

It's only the monthly "Large" plan where 5G applies, not the annual.

Seems to be more of a vague opinion piece than any sort of objective comparison. And the fact they consider high-res audio as remotely…

>That said, functionally identical for the vast majority of people. It means no Bluetooth LE Audio support too, which will become more…

Here's a discussion thread on the upgrades you can do with these:…

You can redirect the offending server to localhost in your hosts file and it will work: 127.0.0.1 winter15.gosredirector.ea.com That's the…

Worrying about depreciation in that sort of timeframe seems pointless. My bet is that ICE cars (except sportier models) will be next to…

Or 3.5mm jack. But both are going the way of the removable battery I'm afraid.

It doesn't work directly through Steam so you'll have to install Rockstar Launcher, which may not work properly on Linux (and therefore the…

@Baysew, yeah, but what have the Romans ever done for us?
25/11/2024 - 11:13
This is out of stock now. Seems they have over sensitive anti-fraud measures as my order was cancelled.

There's also a setting in the Qudelix app as well. Classic bluetooth will never have good latency, but it's as good as it will get.

September 2025. But there might be delays again, and it's not necessarily the case that the retail price will be the same (but I expect…

Only if you WFH and upload large files, host web services/file sharing etc. If you just use it to watch streaming video and web browsing,…

100/40 is the original FTTP plan, but when the NBN was butchered by the Abbott/Turnbull government they had to accommodate FTTN and HFC,…
