  1. Source: https://www.techspot.com/news/87240-ea-faces-another-class-action-lawsuit-over-loot.html This is way overdue. Hopefully more countries will follow suit and sue EA for illegal gambling practices.
  2. You quoted "she can only get votes by going on twitch" and said "yup, this" to paraphrase. It's a silly thing to say about someone who clearly has won an election before without doing a twitch stream. Since the very first point you tried to parrot is totally inaccurate, your commentary is pointless. I'm only telling you to stop making it political. Calling me a simp for that is just childish. I've said nothing good or bad about AOC myself here.
  3. Microsoft had to agree to new rules and regulations. They lost the anti-trust suite but they were able to avoid a forced company break up.
  4. This site is not for political discussion. Just focus on the twitch part, no one cares if you like her or hate her. My only interest with this new was seeing how well her stream did. Also, since you didn't watch the steam your commentary that suggest a level of familiarity with the event that you clearly don't have makes it obvious you just came here to spout off to yourself about nothing. I can assure you no one here cares what you think of AOC or anything else political, so just don't go there. Trolls are people who make comments simply to annoy rather than move the conversation forward. Claiming AOC, who obviously won her last election, can only get votes by campaigning on twitch when she has, for one, never done that before yet has won an election before; and two, she was encouraging people to vote in the presidential election and did not even mention that she was running for re-election once; your opinion is clearly that of someone who just wants to complain about AOC and doesn't have anything to say about the actual topic here, being the twitch event. Go do that on youtube, not here.
  5. Would be nice but for several reasons non exist. I tried HDMI audio over HDCP 2.2 once and it sounded EXTREMELY clean but since most music is just two channels and I have 5.1 surround, it left most of my speakers idle, so I switched back. Using a sound card gives me the option to listen to music with all my speakers.
  6. HDMI over HDCP 2.2 (4k hdmi) is going to give you clearly sound than any sound card will.
  7. Also HDMI is generally superior to any sound card though there are some features you may lose by going full hdmi audio that a sound card would provide.
  8. Oh whoops I thought they were 4 year terms and they happened in the middle of general elections. I stand corrected. Still, she did not mention her own campaign at all during her stream.
  9. Then you can vote for her in two years or so when she is up for re-election because again, she is not running for anything right now. Some notes about the stream, she pulled in 430K consecutive viewers but it's thought the real number is much higher since people could watch the same game from other streamers and maybe people re-stream so they can watch with their friends these days. The 430K from her stream alone puts her as the third most consecutive views of any twitch streamer ever, and her channel didn't even exist ~48 hours ago. Impressive.
  10. Yea for sure. When you consider that google pays more year after year to be default for apple than Microsoft paid to acquire Bethesda speaks volumes about how far they will go to ensure they are always the default option.
  11. Source: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/google-worked-as-1-company-with-apple-paying-the-iphone-maker-up-to-2412-billion-for-a-search-engine-deal-that-disadvantaged-competitors-us-antitrust-suit-claims/ar-BB1afBME Bad news for both companies. A statement like that from one major company to another seems like a real smoking gun.
  12. ** Rolls eyes ** Good thing no one looks to the guy who tried to defend apples $1000 stand for political insights, or anyone else on this site for that matter. If you're just here to troll, don't. I don't know how anyone could miss that she's not campaigning for herself here anyway.
  13. I think the fact that most of the benchmarks for this game are focusing on 4K is giving people the wrong impression. IMO the performance in this game is slightly better/less demanding then Red Dead 2 so if you can run that game, you can run this game.
  14. Source: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/aoc-has-started-a-twitch-channel-to-stream-among-us-and-get-out-the-vote/ar-BB1abvIS?ocid=mmx&PC=EMMX20 Posting this because of how quick her channel is getting subscribers. Politics aside it will be interesting to see how this turns out. I bet her channel will be huge. https://m.twitch.tv/aoc/profile As of right now it's over 200k subs.
  15. Oh man, you posted a news article I had already posted and now I just did the same thing to you. Haha guess we're not used to there being a decent influx of news here. My bad.
  16. Haha man I'm glad the only big tech company I own stock in right now is Microsoft. Hearing about this big tech crack down more and more, starting to think it might really happen.
  17. Kinda crazy that SSDs have gotten so cheap intel doesn't even want to sell them. I actually have a couple spare SSDs in not even using at this point, left over from customers upgrades.
  18. On high with the resolution scaling at 70% with TAA should work fine on a 980 @1440p.
  19. Source: https://www.ign.com/articles/nasa-giving-nokia-14-million-to-build-a-4g-network-on-moon I'm sure this means there will be a starbucks there soon as well.
  20. You guys really don't need to wait to play this. With the resolution scaling plus TAA it's easy to get good performance that also looks nice on any reasonably powerful GPU.
  21. What's your budget? You can go on newegg and sort by laptops that have an i5 and an ssd and you will get good results new and used.
