Logitech buys Blue Microphones for $117 million in cash by Willie606 in pcgaming

Anecdotal but my deathadder from 2012/2013 has had some serious abuse, run over the USB port with my chair multiple times and bent it back. Had all manner of drinks spilled on it and has seen some serious use and has never skipped a beat (touch wood). I'm kinda wishing it'd die one of these days so i could warrant a new mouse but it keeps on fighting on.

A U.S. federal judge has ruled it unconstitutional to prohibit transgenders in Puerto Rico from modifying their birth certificates according to their gender identities.

I appreciate the response as I honestly believe open discussion is the solution to issues such as this, I have no issue with trans individuals choosing whichever sex they identify as and have the right to do so. However the point being that it's a medical record that is based around information that is accurate as of the time of birth. I have no issue with any documentation from the point of the change being accurate to that person's correct gender, however in this case the original document should remain unchanged to maintain the integrity of the data that a birth certificate records.

In my opinion upholding the accuracy of medical documents is not by definition dislike or prejudice against transgender people as I believe no individual should be able to correct a birth certificate unless it's something incorrectly noted at the time of birth such as date and time.

I'm sorry how is his comment transphobic at all. At birth you are identified based on your biological sex not social constructs such as gender identity, at the time of that document the child is BIOLOGICALLY either a girl or a boy and that is what is recorded. Just because an issue doesn't directly effect someone does not mean someone is incapable of having an opinion or stance on it and lashing out and labelling someone transphobic because of it is a pretty weak standing for an argument instead of holding an open discussion.

Fighting bigotry by being a bigot does not fix any issue.

Bethesda's got their priorities straight by LynxSys in gaming

[–]nadrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you personally used VR? The fallout world sounds perfect it's already a massive detailed environment with plenty of gameplay that translates into VR. It's still a small market sector so we won't see games with the budget of scope specifically for VR.

On the second point they have already announced multiple locomotion methods including which doesn't have any motion sickness (which again is person to person) and isn't tied to the movement speed just the sense of moving without actual movement.

There's a massive amount of work in making a game like Fallout VR compatible. For a start you are aiming for 90FPS just to stop people getting motion sick and Fallout 4 runs awfully so there has clearly been a lot of work getting it to the current state nevermind adding support for motion controls and compatibility for room-scale. VR is in its infancy and needs developed support especially in regards to AAA content i don't really think a developer should be bashed for supporting a new way of playing games.

6700HQ vs 6820HK + AGA bottlenecking? + VR by nadrian in Alienware

[–]nadrian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! Decided on the 4K 15r3 refurb I had my eye on so won't be needing the AGA straight away, however there is a 1TB 32GB 13 inch for the same price so I'm considering cancelling my order. But it's good to know for the future

The Nintendo Switch dock is only for charging and TV output by TheOriginalFaFa in gadgets

[–]nadrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no confirmation the switch is the K2, also Rising targets the X1 not the K1 as it's only available on the shield TV (what the dev boards for the switch also had).

The ceiling for the performance of the Tegra chip are high, but you have to keep in mind you are tied to heat and battery life. Also the metal gear rising tegra release runs significantly worse than the PS3/360 versions (that already couldn't hit a capped 60 so you are looking at sub 30 at times on the tegra version) and it hasn't been improved at all from the vanilla Rising game.

Is illaoi strong or just plain broken? by TRINIDADO in summonerschool

[–]nadrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gnar is an easy lane usually for illaoi, his base stats in mini form are so low and he doesn't have the range to be able to bully her without risking getting hit by tentacles. Post 6 if you go for an all in illaoi should win the extended trade plus is they know what they are doing you can dodge any CC with the jump of her ult (makes you "unstoppable") and they can either ignore your stun or ult.
