You really believe in the Bitcoin bullshit, huh? How can anyone even think it's a viable currency when transactions take days, sometimes over a week to complete, all the while it's fluctuating wildly back and forth? I mean you use bitcoin to buy something from a company online, and the next day...

Yeah, I don't even watch Bitcoin but I totally missed the national headlines when it hit $17k and people were getting second mortgages to buy

Not buying any car and continuing to drive the car I already own saves me more money than any of these "solutions" here

These are the answers I needed. Thanks guys.

Yeah that's what I was going to use, but since my laptop never even came with a key, I need to know if that means it's likely stored on the BIOS, and that the OS will pick it up on it's own during install. I don't want to get halfway through the install and realize I need to sit on the phone...

Forgive my ignorance, but I thought I heard somewhere a while back about how Windows keys are now hardcoded onto the bios, and as long as I install the correct version that came with my computer, it should self activate? Is this correct? I'm coming from Linux and honestly after having used it...

I like how it jogs in place before taking off

"We've been watching you for years. There's a reason we haven't tried to contact you. You are the most terrible species we've ever seen. We will not be meeting and do not attempt to contact or visit us" -end transmission

I agree with the article but disagree with people talking about desktop resolutions. I have a 23" 1080p monitor and can clearly see the pixels. I think 110ppi or whatever is just too low for a desktop monitor that size. The issue people don't understand is that text size and UI elements have...

My Bluetooth keyboard and mouse work simultaneously with Android.

Have you tried Equalizer APO? I can't say for sure if it supports USB audio, but it's definitely the most powerful system wide windows EQ I've found and would be surprised if it didn't

Not particularly relevant but I've been looking for a reason to share this. Laughed my ass off.

Seriously, even on my Nexus 5 with 445ppi, when I use Google Cardboard with it I can very clearly see pixels. For someone to argue that they can't they'd have to be legally blind. If you don't use VR, then no, me personally I can't see a difference between 445ppi and 320ish ppi.

I don't know but the crazy thing is there's always someone complaining that even 4k on a 23" desktop monitor is "just complete overkill and totally useless." Happened the last time high res desktop displays came up here. They were trying to argue that anything above 1440p is indistinguishable to...

Hey I think there is a word for that: racism and favoritism. I always knew equality actually meant playing favorites. Oh wait, it's not racist if they are white. /s

It's been a while since I've played GTA 5. I booted it up and performance didn't seem quite what it should've been. Come to find out, my Crossfire was disabled and was only using one of my 270x's. I got both of them running, have every setting maxed out that I can with my VRAM, (can't use ultra...

What are you talking about? They need pixels, the more the better. We all rave about having 1080p+ screen on a 5" device, and it has been good. The difference has been noticable all the way up to around 300-400ppi. Now that we all have 55-65" TV's and barely sit 8-10 ft away, somehow 100ppi is...

My Verizon Galaxy Nexus without a doubt, had a removable battery. I remember this because I also had a high capacity battery for it as well as a bigger battery cover to fit the larger battery. They don't include SD card slots because that's their subtle way of encouraging you to use their cloud...

Wow with spec requirements like that you'd think the word "optimization" has completely left their vocabulary.

Good answer, I played through A link to the past with http://www.gearbest.com/video-game/pp_268375.html and it was awesome. Graphics smoothing and a comfortable controller that worked a+. It was the best gaming experience I've had on Android to date. I don't game much though, but it felt like...

That's like being told that the cable company will only sell me 720p signals for my 1080p TV. Sure, they have programming in 1080p, but their only going to give me 720p. I paid for a high resolution and it should be used as much as possible. Why don't you guys run your desktops at 720p, it's no...

This forum has gone so soft, nothing [H]ard about it amymore. Been following [H] since... man, it must have been the late 90s. Help me out guys, [G]eriatric forum is a more appropriate term. 1080p on a 5.5" screen is 400ppi. 480p (853×480) on a 5.5" screen is 178ppi. You really can't tell a...

Spot on. I don't know what it is about the overweight, but they all seem to have to feel special or better than everyone else. I think it comes from neglectful parenting. The same can be seen in virtually any other low income community... Black ghetto, white trash trailer park. The kids, and...

Those saying no either have pride issues, or haven't really been working on things for very long

I've seen decked out "zombie recovery vehicles" which are usually mildly modified jeeps. It's sad that its come to this, believing the shit we see in movies. Though I suppose this has been going on since movies' existence began. Just look at what Reefer Madness did to people. God what an awful...

So you had to contact them for them to hold up to their contractual agreement? And if you don't, they continue to charge you simply because you didn't tell them to stop? How is this kind of business practice legal??

The people too dumb to use fireworks are all in this thread, listen to yourselves. You think a safety video about not blowing your hands off is dumb and you're too smart for it? OK, how about the guy a few posts above me talking about the right way to light off fireworks in your hand. And the...

I used AMD way back in the day, the k6-2, k6-III, k6+. I've had an fx chip. My buddy in 6th grade swore they were the shit back then so I stuck with it. Then I noticed people with celerons at half the clock speed just utterly demolishing my system in every way possible. Then I got a CHEAP...

LMAO you second ammendment extremists are all the same. So you are telling me, that you are perfectly OK with accepting responsibility for killing many of our own innocent Americans? There will be death of the innocent, make no mistake. Most second ammendment nuts also seem to be in the low...

They would be because guns is how's they solved problems back in the day. The government is a piece of shit on many levels but going about that route is a good way to start another civil war with many of our own children and women dying in their own homes. I'm not ready for that. Not until after...

I've come across some incredibly stupid college graduates...

I also spend more than $50 shipping on Christmas gifts alone, the year before getting prime. It adds up fast. Ever buy anything large? Plan on paying $75+ for shipping.

But Duncan, I want to buy this keyboard and get free shipping. It says to get free shipping, I need to purchase a total of $35 of products. I do not want to purchase another $18 worth of products. There is no way around this. I want free shipping but I don't get it unless I spend another $18...

He has a track record of thinking he sounds smart

Posting on the internet telling people to cut their internet connections and addictions... wow you sound smart:rolleyes:

Sounds like the tablet isnt turning off all the way... A parasitic loss. I dunno about saying iOS and android have better apps, mobile apps are straight trash... The ad supported ones even more so. Have you ever tried making a spreadsheet in android or iOS? What a waste of time lol.

TECHNOLOGY COSTS MORE IN SMALLER FORM FACTORS. It's more expensive to produce and manufacture reliably and its also more difficult to keep cool, keep powerful, and keep power use at a minimum. Not to mention they have 1080p+ displays on a 5" screen... cramming that many pixels in a small area is...

:cool:

The narrow mindedness of people just completely blows my mind. One thing I will agree on, is just how fucked the world is.
