You seem to write almost exclusively CPU and tech articles. Good for you. I wish your co-workers would stick to technology and lay off pushing politics. [edit]

[edit] Wow, the moderators couldn't even tell I was complimenting the guy.
- digi_owl 9y agoI honestly agree that ArsTechnica has lost something since Jon quit (or he quit because the writing was on the door). And not as much the politics, as the feeling that the site has become more "partisan" in the tech world.
- katastic 9y agoI know right? I don't feel like my opinion was really that controversial. Ars Technica has been a bittersweet story for years in all of the communities / circles that I hang out at. Some of their articles are great journalism. Others make you pine for "the good old days". I wish they'd bring back Computer Gaming World. That was the gold standard of computer journalism. You can actually find PDF's of every issue ever released online and if you compare them to today, they used to be so methodical and objective. They didn't read like advertisements and there was no forced-in message about the political climate. You didn't read about Battle Chess and get shamed for liking that the Queen looked pretty.
