TBH I'm just calling it that these new CPU's and graphics cards aren't for me, they're for people who want high FPS at any cost including trending power usage UP whereas I want an increase in performance with power usage trending down. I'll have to wait I guess until someone maybe even an AIB...

I have a pixel 2 phone, can plug it directly in to charge or get files off but besides that don't see a lot of usb c stuff around which is weird, it's clearly better

I like how on the one hand you were pointing out that change is hard to deal with and that we should get used to it but then point out a design flaw. I do like change a lot, I live on the bleeding edge but we're purely talking from a design perspective. For example my biggest reason for coming...

Not gonna lie, I actively hate the front page, it looks pretty but I find it very hard to find what I'm looking for. Even just removing the images helps but the core issue remains, it's just harder to navigate. vs
