The author Chris Angelini happens to be the manager of Toms Hardware USA.
It is linked from THE major page that recommends hardware (GPUs, that is, on a site dedicated to Gamers Delights).
So i ask myself, if that person has "more important things to do", what might that be?
<irony on> Change the topic of Toms Hardware to Gamers Smartphones? <irony off>
Or rather talk to companys to provide more advertisments - directly or indirectly - on THW, to pay some unpaid bills?
Dear Barty, i now surf the web for decades, and i've seen things like this many times before, online and offline.
"If you want your neighbourhood not to go downhill, remove graffity as early as possible, but also repair broken windows as fast as possible."
If you know Chris, contact him, and advise him to not have something like that discussion on reddit in Spring 2016 so early again.
If you prefer, we should rather continue that discussion on PM, shouldn't we?
