    So who else ordered a Ryzen 5000 series CPU?

    How to be sure what disk is ssd during installation Windows 10. Disk 1 or Disk 2?

    Another vote for making sure that only the drive to which you want to install Windows is connected at install. I always make sure to do this when installing Windows to a system where I have multiple drives. When it comes to installing Linux, BSD, Solaris, etc this never occurs so I just leave...

    Help with new build

    Thanks. That's not far off from what I had edited above in my first post. If others don't have anything different, I'll proceed ahead but just to clarify, is that much processor really needed for what I'm using it for?

    Help with new build

    1) It's an ATX case: https://www.apevia.com/products-cases/x-sniper2-bl 2) It's a SATA SSD. A Samsung 860 EVO to be exact. 3) The resolution of all three monitors is 1920 x 1080. 4) On your last note, I did some more research last night and saw that the Ryzen 3rd gen CPUs that I want don't...

    Auto Robot Chefs are Coming for all of Those $15 an Hour Burger Flipping Jobs

    If this were possible, then it wouldn't take a $15/hr minimum wage. Fast food companies would have long-ago implemented this if it were possible. They wouldn't wait for a wage increase. The goal of any business is to maximize profits. If the ability to automate saves money and returns a bigger...

    NFS Mount - CentOS w/ multiple users

    I'd go with this as well. There's nothing in your fstab file which indicates that there's anything wrong. To modify what Boonie said a bit, I'd go with: chmod -R 755 /mnt/nfs This should allow all of the users to view any of the nfs directories.

    Music Group Confirms What.CD Raid, Claims Millions In Losses

    I couldn't have said it better myself.
