People typically use liquid-cooling for actively circulated systems. Heat pipes are better referred to as vapor chambers or phase change cooling since the evaporative and capillary action are what create the fluid flow.
I don't see how the lack of a pump means the liquid isn't doing the cooling.
MS agree.
Yeah it still wouldn't make sense to compare Black Friday weeks and for one week to not include Black Friday. That is straight up lying.
It's not lying if they explicitly say the sales period they're examining runs from Nov. 21st through Nov. 27th, which they do.
You take this way too serious cousin.
Sorry, but Queso is spot on here. It is gross, and I would add that you should stop supporting it. Forced parity is even more disgusting, so please stop supporting that too. kthxbai
So the MS PR release from last week, is that talking about sales from the period Nov 21 thru 27th being up 22% from last year, or is it talking about the week that contains Black Friday (black friday being November 28th last year)? It's kind of ambiguous... Not sure what to make of it, or if it's even worth trying. I've read the discussion here on the matter but don't really find myself enlightened on what it really means haha.
That's what it says, yes, but there are some who seem unwilling to accept this, and feel there are also
implied statements in the PR which make it clear that's not what they did.
Honestly, I don't understand why journalists don't follow up on this stuff. I can see why they ran with the story as-is, because it took
us a week of going 'round and 'round before we finally figured out what it said, and if it hadn't been for the second PR that referenced the original PR, it's likely we
never would've realized what happened.
But now that we do know, why don't journalists follow up on it? We have some that post here. If IGN, GameSpot, and Kotaku all start asking MS what days they were looking at in 2014, they'd have to give
some kind of response, even if it's just evasion.
