Study shows gamers more likely to drink, smoke weed, ignore friends...
Don't listen to the scientists, these ARE your real friends
Shock news: spending 14 hours a day on Counterstrike or World of Warcraft means your offline relationships could suffer.
Researchers at Brigham Young University in Utah talked to 813 university students across the US, and found that as the amount of time playing video games went up, the quality of relationships with friends and family went down.
"Relationship quality is one of a cluster of things that we found to be associated with video games," said researcher Laura Walker. "The most striking part is that everything we found clustered around video game use is negative."
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Videogames are more fun then most real world activities.
And they are getting even better.
I thought everyone knew this. That is why people play videogames.
Why do people get drunk? Cause they enjoy it more then being sober.
I'm sure there are alot of "Enjoyable" things you can do in the real world, but the fact remains, it takes time, schedueling (with friends)and money, and its proably still not gonna be as fun as beating the final boss of the last EPIC game you played.
