    Amazon Is Kicking All Unauthorized Apple Refurbishers off Amazon Marketplace

    Apple is a for-profit corporation, who struck a deal with another for-profit corporation, Amazon. Why is this Apples fault and not Amazon? Amazon is the one who decided to screw over their resellers and accept the terms of the deal. Obviously Amazon felt they could make more money selling Apple...

    Intel Server Technology Falls Behind AMD as 10nm Struggles Continue

    Haha, nice! I haven't ran anything AMD in years. I do miss those old hardware modding days. I remember soldering those SMD resistors on the original Athlon to go from 500mhz up to 800mhz. Like this: https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/overclocking-amd,126.html Had to go to a local metal...

    82% of American Teenagers Own an iPhone?

    Massive difference between being available, in some way, with different apps and installs; and having it all simply work out of the box with little mgmt and setup from me.

    82% of American Teenagers Own an iPhone?

    For a family, it’s tough to beat what Apple is offering. We have 2 boys, age 13 and 11. They get our hand-me-downs and can’t wait to get them. We all have Windows 10 desktops for gaming and work, but all tablets, laptops, and phones are Apple. Want a ton of smart devices and lights in your...

    Unikrn Crypto CEO Devolves Into Insults When Challenged

    Pretty interesting that you have the foresight to know that public blockchains and decentralized applications will never ever add anything to society. It's crazy people are throwing this amount of money and building businesses around something with 0 value right? You sound like a socialist...

    My analogy was not apples to oranges, Graphics cards are as necessary to human survival as are clothespins. But you think your analogy is better lol? Really? Comparing price gouging during natural disasters for essential survival items to the prices of luxury GPUs used to play games, and run...

    Analogy is perfect. My point is lots of items are used for more than one thing. Video Cards are now one of those items. As pointed out by others, it's not even just crypto that is stealing "your" GPUs. Eventually supply will increase to satisfy all of the various demands for these GPUs.

    I used to tow a travel trailer but we sold it and got a boat. Now the boat is usually on the lift in the canal behind the house so no longer have to tow it to the ramp. It's still good for gettin in the mud though. :D The raptor has a lower towing capacity and I like to tow my boat down to...

    I bought mine in 2016, maxed out F-150 Lariat 4x4 Ecobeast. Sticker was 61K USD, bought for 53K, then added another 7K for lift and wheels and tires and other upgades. I'm sure they are even more expensive now.

    I simply disagree with this statement. No one is damaged, you can buy cards right now at Amazon, you just have to pay a little more than you did before as prices have gone up. If less PCs are sold, due to the overall cost of the PC being higher, well then manufacturers should work to create...

    Turning natural resources into a product to make money is wrong? Where do the raw materials for any product come from? Sure you can form an OPINION that too much electricity is being used, but you can’t state it as fact. It seems though that you somehow feel creating digital goods for sale to...

    This is an interesting concept. They don't Fix the price but they Set the price point. Hmm. Having a bit of trouble wrapping my head around it though. So what happens if the manufacturer "SETs" the price point of widgets, and retail wants to move it lower to sell more widgets as they feel...

    While I understand the point you are making, nothing with having higher prices on video cards is preventing someone from gaming. It just means their new equipment costs more than it did previously. I can go on Amazon right now and buy a 1070ti for $1,000. I'm not prevented from gaming. Sure I...

    I didn't realize that the word Suggested in MSRP meant Mandatory. Thanks for setting me straight.

    Unikrn Crypto CEO Devolves Into Insults When Challenged

    How is it having a negative effect on the gaming community? Can gamers no longer have fun gaming? Or do they just not like that cards cost more now? Personally I don't like that my truck cost $60K either. I used to be able to buy them for much less. The pickup truck driving community is hurting.
