@Pirat_Nation Will this break the SSDs? In other words, will the graphics card's lifespan be shorter if it has internal SSDs, and will using the PC's SSD ruin it?
@Pirat_Nation "Wear and tear on an SSD occurs primarily due to write operations, as the NAND flash memory cells have a finite number of erase and program (E/P) cycles and physically deteriorate with each use."
“We don’t use or even have a GDID that’s ridiculous”
“Okay we have one but we just use it to protect you from bad actors”
“Okay so we might’ve used it to track some people’s identity but they are bad so don’t worry we won’t use it on stuff like ai data collection or advertiser tracking”
“Okay so we might use it for our internal data collection and advertiser tracking but only to help you”
“We use it for whatever we want, you won’t stop using windows so we don’t care what you think”
WhatsApp for Windows uses more memory than many expect. A recent report found that the app can consume over 1.2 GB of RAM after opening and switching between chats.
The issue began after Meta replaced the older native Windows app with a WebView2-based version, While this simplifies development, it also makes the app heavier and less efficient.
Users have complained about slower performance, delayed notifications, and the app continuing to run in the background even after closing the window.
he old native version used much less memory and performed better.

Nintendo has been hit with a €35 million fine in France over the long-running Joy-Con drift problem affecting the original Nintendo Switch.
French regulators said Nintendo knew about the issue as far back as 2018 but failed to properly inform customers and was slow to roll out free repairs across Europe.
Authorities also found that some players bought new controllers instead of being directed to repair options, which was deemed misleading.
Joy-Con drift has been one of the biggest complaints from Switch owners since the console launched in 2017.
Nintendo agreed to pay the fine but said this does not mean it admits any wrongdoing.
The company now offers free Joy-Con repairs in Europe, even for some out-of-warranty controllers.
California lawmakers took a big step for video game players on May 14, 2026.
A group in the state Assembly voted to advance bill AB 1921, meaning the full Assembly will now vote on it soon.
The bill, named the Protect Our Games Act, was introduced by Assemblymember Chris Ward. It sets clear rules for video game companies that sell games connected to online servers.
If it becomes law, it would apply only to new games sold after January 1, 2027.
>Before shutting down servers, companies must notify players at least 60 days in advance.
>They must then provide one of three options:
-an offline version playable forever
-a free patch allowing play without the company’s servers
-or a full refund.
Many companies currently shut down servers and make paid games unplayable. This bill aims to stop that.
The Stop Killing Games campaign supported the bill, while the Entertainment Software Association opposed it, arguing the rules would hurt new game development. The opposition failed in the committee vote.
OpenAI and Sam Altman just got caught selling your private ChatGPT conversations to Meta and Google
A class action lawsuit has been filed accusing OpenAI of secretly sharing millions of users’ ChatGPT queries with Meta and Google - without any consent
The lawsuit reveals OpenAI embedded tracking technology (including Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics) directly into the ChatGPT website. Every time you type a query, your conversation along with your personal identifiers is automatically sent to Meta and Google
Yes. Your private questions, sensitive topics, and personal information are being leaked to two of the biggest data harvesting companies in the world
The lawsuit reveals this data is being used for marketing, advertising, and building detailed user profiles. All while Sam Altman publicly pretends to care about safety, privacy, and “responsible AI” and doing exactly opposite
This is a deliberate attempt to profit off your private conversations
They sold you out
While users trusted ChatGPT with their thoughts, ideas, problems, and personal information, OpenAI was busy piping that data straight to Meta and Google behind the scenes
This is a massive violation of privacy and trust
