It's crazy I had to scroll down this far to see a comment from someone that actually read the article.

You guys read the articles? I just read the comments. Scrolling to here I've learned that:

  1. The founder of userbenchmark apparently started the site to allegedly manipulate stocks. Specifically Intel and AMD stocks.
  2. There's other sites than my goto sites from passmark.
  3. Some lemmings actually read the articles abd
  4. The website isn't really getting paywalled.
