@redillux @GamersNexus Give people the *tiniest* bit of power and they'll reveal who they really are.

Reddit is a pretty great example of this.

It is not the job of the consumer to keep your shitty business model in business.

I hope it pops.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella wants everyone to embrace Copilot AI.

Satya warns the AI bubble could burst without wider adoption.

I love AM4; It is definitely the GOAT of CPU sockets.

But bringing back old tech because new tech is now unobtainable is a step backwards no matter how much all of the people involved in this absolute nonsense pretend otherwise.

This is a deliberate choice.

AMD Ryzen chief teases they are bringing back Zen 3 because of the DDR5 shortage.

This is on the heels of nVidia rumored to be bringing back the 3060.

We going backwards like it’s 2020. 😭

@Pirat_Nation I hate it here.

Rest in peace, Vince.

I cannot believe I am writing this.

Vince Zampella, a titan of the video game industry, the co-creator of Call of Duty and co-founder of Respawn Entertainment, not to mention a dear friend, died in a car crash yesterday in Los Angeles.

£325 but they've got none lol

[ZonalFear @ZonalFear]

Had I waited just two days longer, I would have been massively over budget with this purchase, and would likely have not built the PC this is going to be part of.

I paid £96 at the start of November.

Today it is £210 from the same place. Disgusting profiteering.

64gb of RAM now costs more than an entire Sony PS5 console.

Xbox did not account for this, and have told retailers they will be raising prices.

Sony is said to have stockpiled RAM and should be price stable for now.

All that is going to get much worse next year. Steam Machine's launch is going to be really messed up by this.

What's increasing RAM prices? A huge shortage as RAM manufactures shift production to the type of RAM AI needs, leaving no capacity for anything else.

[ZonalFear @ZonalFear]

Now £300.

Up over 200% in 21 days lmao

As a person in the Cybersecurity field, what would be your first response to this ?

@Grummz Uhhhh....

[ZonalFear @ZonalFear]

Amazing.

They made an immediate business decision to go all-in on the new fad, but also abandoning a well regarded brand name and market too.

I have always bought Crucial memory. This is a real shame and yet another chapter in this story of shit.

I'm tired.

One of the big three RAM manufacturers, Micron, has announced they are exiting the consumer market completely.

I often use the A57 to Sheffield. It is easily one of the worst condition major A-roads I've ever had the displeasure of driving on and has been in need of repairs for as long as I can remember.

I wish my money was used for my benefit occasionally. Not a big ask.

@TheSnazzzyRock PvP on demand the singular reason why I have not clicked 'buy'. The ONLY reason.

I'm a 40 year old man and I just wanna have a good time without this nonsense, especially when my gaming time is limited

It's a shame because I am really interested.

[ZonalFear @ZonalFear]

On the bench this week - The Intel Core Ultra 5 225F.

It is amazing how a processor can deliver some of BL4's most consistent results yet somehow still be disappointing.

Here's the 225F being the bottleneck in Borderlands 4.

Yet the percents are actually half OK. 🤷‍♂️

£110 for 8 gigs of single stick DDR5 RAM, and not even particularly fast.

I hate it here.

[ZonalFear @ZonalFear]

I am no Reform lover. I would not vote for them.

But it is damning that the first person who actually listened to what I had to say was a Reform councillor, rather than the people who keep telling us they are looking out for us.

Something has gone very wrong here.

[ZonalFear @ZonalFear]

10 months ago, I (repeatedly) contacted my local Labour MP about a serious local issue. I am still awaiting a response.

In frustration, I have contacted my local Reform councillor - and in less than 3 hours recieved a personal email detailing what he would be doing next.
