Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

DukenukemX replied to the thread AT&T Eliminating Copper Landlines by 2029.I've seen areas where other companies have done the last mile laying of fiber. My uncle's home upstate has Margaretville Fiber which is expensive since they charge $100 for 100 up and down and $200 for 300 up and down. I know people complain... -

Are you still getting service through acttual CenturyLink? They got bought by AT&T which brands as Quantum Fiber. I used to have CL but saw advertisements for QF so I went to their website and signed up and now I get double the speeds for $15... -

Oh believe me I know, I'm just saying that's the issue with fiber and costs. Not the material, the labor. What I'd like to see is to do the actual last-mile as a public utility. Have the city lay fiber to all houses and maintain all the...

I do not care how. We all know it will the question is just when.

DukenukemX replied to the thread Valve Steam Machine, SteamOS Desktop, Steam Frame VR and Steam Controller.It's already been explained by Gabe Newell. They fear Microsoft for their incompetence and malice. Considering the video is from 2013, the failure of Windows 8 from Microsoft had worried Valve since they depend on Windows. Microsoft can simply...

without AMD the steam machine doesn't exist AMD decided to exit the laptop GPU market. there were a bunch of 7600m sitting around gathering dust they asked Valve if they are interested in a clearance sale valve said yes. that is how we ended up...

Valve has always played nice with the open source world. Nothing they do is hidden. All the they might turn evil arguments don't really track. Valve could have went closed source to ship proper HDMI they didn't. They pressured the forum to stop...

"Round two" has already been a success. They've pushed Linux adoption to a place where it's viable as a gaming OS; enough to force MS to respond with 'promises' to improve W11. They've already brought in millions of new gamers to Steam through...

No, you're not understanding. The goal is not hardware market share; the goal is to bring in more gamers to STEAM. The hardware does not matter as once the software is there the hardware vendors will follow. We've already seen this with the Steam...

DukenukemX replied to the thread AT&T Eliminating Copper Landlines by 2029.Ok but we gave telecom's a lot of money to run fiber. Telecom companies received $400 billion to deploy fiber optic grid inside US, but never delivered. They just took the money and pocketed it. Of course, their solution is home wireless...

The issue isn't the cost of the fiber optic cable itself (I would note that the stuff they use for telecommunications costs a lot more than the shit used for drones) it is the install. It is a lot of man power to go and run cables, be they copper...

That is exactly what it is. Valve is comfortable with Steam printing money and unwilling to take big risks. It will be like that as long as Gabe is alive, for better or for worse. They were never going to subsidize their hardware. The...

I don't think Valve cares how many of these they sell. SteamOS is out so companies and individuals can build whatever kind of system they want. This is just the next phase of getting people into the Steam/Linux ecosystem. Its a calculated...

You can certainly prefer PC gaming, but I'll say this: Nintendo moved past being just "for kids" a long time ago, arguably back in the N64 era. When the Switch 2 has a FromSoftware dark fantasy title (The Duskbloods) in the pipeline, plus plenty...

DukenukemX replied to the thread Valve Steam Machine, SteamOS Desktop, Steam Frame VR and Steam Controller.It gets worse. The RX 7600 in the GabeCube has 28 outta 32 CUs that you would normally find in a 7600, plus it runs at a lower frequency. I also heard it's power limited as well. An RTX 5050 would beat this easily.

The specs on this thing just get worse and worse. I just found out: gigabit ethernet. 1 stick of RAM so.....single channel. Certain games which this thing chokes on, such as Starfield; ought to see some fairly large gains with dual channel...
