  1. Why you wouldn't want to install updates at all is beyond me. Waiting a few days/weeks makes sense, especially if it's on a computer that you need in order to do you job. The last thing you'd want is your work computer to no longer work properly. This has definitely been an issue with Windows 10, at first, 1903 didn't work very well on my computer at all. I have SSDs only and Windows was taking literal minutes to do basic tasks like opening things like notepad, calculator and web browsers when it used to take a second or two with 1809. So I do understand not wanting to update immediately. I do know there are people out there who don't want to update at all, that makes no sense to me. The updates are free and brings in better security. 1909 does look like it's one I'm going to avoid for a couple of weeks, especially since it doesn't really bring in any "must have" features like 1903 did.
  2. That does look like a really good game. Too bad it's only on Epic Store until August 2020. I already have Steam, Battle.net, Origin and uPlay (I'm not going to count Microsoft Store as it's part of Windows 10). I don't really want to download another game launcher.

    Yeah but Epic Game Store
  4. It's okay. Rockstar servers are terrible if you're buying it from there. You'd probably be lucky to get more than 50Mbps anyway. If you're going to get it from Steam, it's still going to be a 5 hour download though.
  5. System requirements have been announced and oh my, that's a lot of storage space required. They've also announced a bunch of new (minor) things added in the PC version Minimum Specifications: OS: Windows 7 - Service Pack 1 (6.1.7601) Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-2500K / AMD FX-6300 Memory: 8GB Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 2GB / AMD Radeon R9 280 3GB HDD Space: 150GB Sound Card: DirectX compatible Recommended Specifications: OS: Windows 10 - April 2018 Update (v1803) Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-4770K / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X Memory: 12GB Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 480 4GB HDD Space: 150GB Sound Card: DirectX compatible https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/61159/Red-Dead-Redemption-2-For-PC-Now-Available-to-Pre-Purchase-via-the-Roc?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=rdr2pc-10092019&utm_content=newswire
  6. I don’t, no. The iRacing version of it was pretty fun to watch.
  7. Well, that's good. It's been known for a while now that most "viruses" come from dodgy adverts these days. It's a shame Google has to force websites to upgrade their entire website to https rather than them just doing it themselves.
  8. New phone, better camera, higher quality pictures.
  9. Well, all of that money is useless for you now. You should send it to me so I can buy a Brutale 800RR.
  10. Red Dead Redemption 2 is a prequel to the first one, so it might be worth playing RDR2 first then RDR1. Of course, you will have to get a console for RDR1 as it never made it's way to PC. It's on PS3, 360 as well as PS4 and Xbox One via backwards compatibility.
  11. Source It's also coming to Epic Store, Humble Store, GameStop (I'm guessing a product key to activate via Rockstars Launcher), Green Man Gaming on the 23rd of October as well as Steam in December.
  12. Good, companies shouldn't be allowed to get away with this. I do hope they lose the case.
  13. https://jalopnik.com/heres-what-happ...mpt-1838221405 Modified motors ✔ Modified batteries ✔ Modifed chassis ✔ Probably stripped out interior ✔ Non-stock brakes ✔ Non-stock tyres ✔ Tesla are refusing to publish pictures of the interior and all of the windows are tinted so you can't see inside. I'm going to go ahead and say this doesn't count as the Porsche did it with a production model car. The only difference is the Porsche had a roll cage and they replaced the drivers seat with a bucket seat for safety reasons.
  14. Source I like this idea for a phone, especially over a folding one. Mostly because the screen can still be made of glass instead of plastic, so it's much harder to scratch it. It won't need a notch/hole in the display for a selfie camera because you can just turn the phone around and use the main camera. I don't think I want to pay over £2,000 on a phone though. I also wonder how it will deal with being dropped. I can't imagine it will end well.
  15. 👌 Simmons, you're saving up for a Civic Type R. Well, this bike is only £14K, give me the money to buy it plskthxbai A more permanent fix would be to change the muffler bearings.
  16. Another good quali this week. It's a shame the track is terrible. I'm hoping the race tomorrow is going to be better than last week though. Most of the Singapore race was boring and it went on for way too long.
  17. Just bought a new RGB mechanical keyboard. Normally, people in English speaking countries go for the QWERTY layout but I went for the much more rare CspaceUIOS layout
  18. I don't think the base station-less tracking would be an issue tbh. The Rift S uses a similar technology for tracking and I don't think anyone has complained about it.
