Too bad the movie .10 cent deals are for the rental version - buying them is still full price. And kind of a waste considering there are better places/ways to legally buy them that don't require...

You could ask or you could Google around and find the exact same answer like you could have with the PS4 because, again, these consoles have been out for two years and this has long been settled :)

You don't have to speculate, it's public knowledge that it's running Orbis OS, which is a customer fork of FreeBSD 9 (not Linux). The binaries are specially compiled for it and digitally signed; even...

You honestly believe that in the 2 years the PS4 has been on the market this has never been tried, and there's a chance some random person today is now going to pop in a different HDD (which people...

No, you will not get this to work. Yes, you are wasting time on the internet posting about it :)

No.

No.

Also that trick has serious drawbacks, not the least of which is the SD reader on that thing is half the speed of the internal storage. If you put movies or non-persistent stuff on it you...

No, I didn't know that, because it would never occur to me that someone would actually ask if it was safe to plug a cable in between a PC and a TV that threw off sparks are you kidding here?

What...

I think you have answered your own question. Though the "sparkles" doesn't have to be power related, in fact it's more likely a data transmission error of some kind. I am assuming you have switched...

Hate to break it to you but the days of being able to hide out in another OS like "Linux" (I assume you mean a distro like Ubunto or Mint not just the Linux kernel :) ) or OSX are long gone, drive by...

I'm not trying to be a jerk, honestly. I'm just repeating facts anyone can dig up with a little solid research on their own. Like the original comment (which was specifically about DX12), this one is...

Pretentious is attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed. That's not what I'm doing, I'm simply repeating facts. "Sarcastic" or even...

If you don't want to listen, you won't listen. I'm not sure you even read the article you linked, which actually reinforced the point I was trying to make. Even the last sentence of the article...

Only if the existing games are updated to support it. Look, this stuff isn't magic :) It's an API for hardware. A game written for DX9 or 11 doesn't know about the new, updated features or the new...

The OS, and drivers, supporting DX12 is only half of it. The game has to support it as well and none do currently. The post I quoted specifically said "Even some of my old games have shown a visual...

Windows 10 does absolutely nothing to improve image quality in games like that. Maybe you got newer drivers during the install for your video chipset.

In theory any setup like that would be OS independent; it shouldn't matter what is on there. For that matter most PC based solutions are that way if you build a recovery drive and boot them off...

The link to the hardware based cloning device you posted is still using software to clone, it just doesn't require a PC in the middle. That it does 1:1 replicas of drives doesn't make it special,...

Windows Phone only, I am pretty sure they haven't made a Universal App version yet.

There's no link, no statement like that has come out of Redmond in an official capacity, nor is it likely to, the most you'll get maybe are tweets from community managers or random developers.
...

With 16gb it is a reasonable assumption that he is running the x64 version but not absolute - it won't install it by default. In any case there's probably more to it than that - such as the fact that...

That game is 14 years old. (it came out the year before the one in the title).

You're judging it off a preview release as well? Sometimes I sympathize with Redmond, I do :)

It's just transmitting information, the same way the wireless controller has always transmitted information back and forth - all those comms are just digital packets, you know - the difference being...

Depends on the country but the Register, being UK, can get away with free speech as well as many other western countries...so I assume your comment on prosecution is in jest :)

Work is different...

Didn't notice you were another poster - I was responding to the OP who was missing the network driver for his Surface :) Those are hard to find outside Windows Update or the Microsoft package I...
