Round Up of Technology News This Week

I look at various sources everyday, and that means I can bring you lazy sods some relevant information, so here goes:
1. AMD Bites the Dust
I’m a hardcore die hard, AMD fan, but unfortunatley those days of top processors are coming to an end, although today, recent investment in AMD has given birth to the Foundry [...]

Gamer Grub - WTF OMFG!

Ok upon a brief search on the internet, I discovered that this stuff now exisits. ‘Gamer Grub’ - obviously because of a bunch of very stupid / bored, maybe drunk market researchers met up with some gamers (thats what I reckon). It also seems hardcore gamers aren’t ill enough…

So as gamers, we can’t be bothered to [...]

Google Chrome & How to Enable Home Button

When it comes to browsing the web, there is a new kid on the block. It’s Google, the 10 year birthday of google (the mega evil search engine company), and they’ve decided to make the other big boys Microsoft a little bit more scared - welcome Chrome.

However, this is what [...]

That they did was, is round up some unwitting, useless excuses for people and told them they we’re testing a brand new OS Code-named Mojave. Ofcourse this wasn’t the case, and it was just [...]

ISP’s Crack Down On Illegal File Sharing

A few problems I foresee on this one, users that the ISP doesn’t like, or a user which downloads & uploads a lot [...]

Windows Live Free? Microsoft Gone soft?

I guess this is all sort of related back to E3 and the post done by my good friend elderan - as this announcement by Corporate giants Microsoft was made now, and not a the most anticipated gaming event of the year (duh microsoft, idiots)… So what does this mean? It means that ‘Games for [...]
