  <description>&lt;p&gt;Intel, you can stop shooting yourself in the foot any time now: &lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.zdnet.com/article/intel-gags-linux-distros-from-revealing-performance-hit-from-spectre-patches/" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.zdnet.com/article/intel-gags-linux-distros-from-revealing-performance-hit-from-spectre-patches/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hey remember when we talked about how you shouldn’t use Facebook’s VPN? Welp:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/08/facebook-violates-apples-data-gathering-rules-pulls-vpn-from-app-store/" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/08/facebook-violates-apples-data-gathering-rules-pulls-vpn-from-app-store/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nvidia drops RTX 2080 and 2080Ti:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2018/08/22/nvidia-rtx-2080-gtx-1080/" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.engadget.com/2018/08/22/nvidia-rtx-2080-gtx-1080/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
But what are they actually comparing it to?:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.extremetech.com/gaming/275961-nvidia-claims-rtx-gpus-are-much-faster-than-pascal-by-deliberately-comparing-the-wrong-cards" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.extremetech.com/gaming/275961-nvidia-claims-rtx-gpus-are-much-faster-than-pascal-by-deliberately-comparing-the-wrong-cards&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Fallout 76 Updates:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/Fallout/comments/96gqj1/quakecon_2018_fallout_76_panel_information_and/" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://old.reddit.com/r/Fallout/comments/96gqj1/quakecon_2018_fallout_76_panel_information_and/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sony continues to hold firm on not allowing cross-platform play:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.polygon.com/2018/8/13/17684172/playstation-4-fortnite-cross-platform-play-ninja" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.polygon.com/2018/8/13/17684172/playstation-4-fortnite-cross-platform-play-ninja&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;(With a healthy grain of salt EDIT actually a small one)Valve seems to be working towards Windows games running on Linux based systems with SteamOS:&lt;br&gt;
