    News All four iPhone 16 models just revealed in new leak — meet the new design

    New design? It's looked exactly the same for years. Apple can't creatively figure out how to change it anymore.

    I thought PlayStation Portal was pointless — here’s why I was wrong

    Completely agree, this is another reason why it's hard to trust Toms Guide. The first reason he gives is that it looks pretty! Are you kidding me? Most families that can afford a $200 couch-only accessory have kids with TV's in their rooms. Hell the TV's cost less than this thing

    News No Mow May — 7 reasons to stop mowing your lawn this month

    Sometimes I think people live in completely different worlds. So, the reason people don't like wild flowers is because they're weeds that take over a pristine looking lawn. They attract insects and bugs that are a nuisance to say the least and deadly in the case of allergies to stings...

    Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power review: Truly epic and divisive

    So Tolkien is a genius storyteller. That's one of the reasons why these stories have survived for so long. Same with JRR Martin. If Amazon decides to change canon, they're basically saying they can create a better world and story than Tolkien. This is a guy who created LANGUAGES from...

    This is the biggest lie told to TV shoppers — and how to see through it

    I believe if your TV and output source support HDMI 2.1 then you can get 4k @ 120Hz. It sucks about finding the Native resolution. Such an important spec and it amazes me that manufacturers can leave it out and hide it legally. It's basically legal to come up with fake refresh rates and...

    Amazon's New World is a land of missed opportunities

    I think you're confusing a game with a political stance. I'm glad that there aren't political tones and narratives in this game. Playing a game focused on colonialism is just that, being a faction that colonizes new lands. You're looking at the game through a political lens and its a shame...

    Don’t make the Dune mistake I did — don’t see it like this

    This is a shame. IMAX is great if you're watching it in theaters but people will only experience that during the theatrical release. If the production didn't successfully convey the experience in all formats, then buying or streaming this after theaters is going to give people a less optimal...

    News iPhone 13 Pro macro camera is so good that a doctor's using it for this

    My only reservation on this, is AI. AI may modify the original image to make it look better. I would think doctors want an "undoctored" image (no pun intended). May be dangerous

    News iPhone 13 Pro ‘final’ design just appeared before Apple event

    So spending a thousand dollars for new colors doesn't seem like a smart idea... typical lack of innovation from apple

    The best computer speakers in 2022

    So how are the Logitech Z906 and Klipsch 2.1 ProMedia speakers not on this list?

    News MacBook M1 destroys Windows on ARM — this is embarrassing

    You're comparing apples to oranges when you pit this thing against the Surface Pro X and then say "it's one of the best laptops around". Compare it to the Surface Pro 7 then. It's fine to say that when comparing Microsoft's ARM tablet to Apples M1 chip, the M1 is far better, but that's not...

    News Nvidia RTX 3080 stock shortage — here's when things will get better

    Did the price of the 3090 drop to $999 or is that a typo?

    News Atari VCS release , price, games, specs, and pre-orders

    I love that we're getting another potential entry into the console market. I always support more entries just like I supported the original jaguar when it came out. That being said, it's going to need to play more than 40 year old arcade games at launch for $400 bucks. I do like the PC...

    News Nvidia RTX 3090 beastly 8K performance revealed — see it in action now

    What's telling about these videos is that the card does exactly what Nvidia said it was built to do. It's an intro card to 8k gaming. Despite the critics comparing it to the 3080 in terms of price and 1440p/4k performance, it delivers. I've read so many reviews that slam the 24GB of memory as...

    News Nvidia RTX 3090 prices revealed — and they’re 3x the Xbox Series X

    From a technical perspective, there's nothing different between the 3090 and the 3080 that is for commercial use only. The 3090 is not a quadro part. Sure, they may have killed the "Commercial" Titan and replaced it with the 3090, but the card is a gaming card. I also think that 24GB of...
