What? Facebook was down? Didn't notice.

I've been using this for over a year. It was beta, but worked great.

I remember when I was in school a guy had this game for N64. It looked like shit to me, as I was used to PC gaming. It was fun though.

Didn't know it still existed. Better late than never.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone finds a serious bug in the calculator code, like a privilege escalation o worse. Microsoft has a talent for those kind of things.

My 1TB Spinpoint F1 died a couple years ago... I had it since around 2007. Most reliable HDD I ever had. Still, HDDs have been very unreliable fire the for decade.

There was a firmware bug that caused data loss and the drive was recognized as having 8MB capacity. I never saw a drive with that problem though.

RAID 5/6 is not recommended anymmore, as rebuid times takes ages on modern high capacity drives and poses a risk of another drive dying during the rebuild. Most storage arrays now use RAID 10.

I've had only 3 SSDs deaths. Two of those are OCZ Vertex 4, the other one is a Samsung 840 Evo, but this one died because of a short circuit along with the motherboard (apparently a mouse peed inside the computer). The most worn-out drives are various models of 120GB ADATA branded drives used...

I don't think there will be a 16 core part for AM4, just doesn't make much sense. I may be wrong.

"for Its Privacy Practices" Haha, I'll rephrase it "for it's lack of privacy". The only privacy they practice is hiding the identity of who they sell their user's info to.

So this rifle will be bend-prone, will have (trigger) touch issues, sometimes it will not respond, other times it'll fire on it's own. Ammo can only be purchased from the rifle manufacture's store, when something breaks you need to replace the whole thing, you have to take it to a certified...

Hmm, let's use them for the Pied Piper network!

I get tons of scam and phishing emails to my gmail account, so the filter seems to not be working. Then, emails I send from my own domain and server get identified as phishing by gmail despite my server having a good reputation and not being in any blacklist.

Is there any special application where using Itanium has any advantage to using x86 (or Power for that matter)?

My bad. I stand corrected.

The post says: " In some testing, the Coreprio utility helped uplift the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX performance to a virtual tie with the Intel Xeon W-3175X."

I'll say it's the hottest computer product ever!

Windows 10 Mobile was already dead, it just had been in denial all this time.

I've seen systems get infected with cryptoviruses or mining viruses by just being connected to the internet behind a firewall, even systems that don't her user interaction like test VMs or db severs.

Yeah I remember the Riva TNT. With that I could play Quake II at 1024x768 (or was it 800x600?) and it looked great. The early days saw big jumps in performance from generation to generation, unlike now.

Very nice idea. Brings back many memories, good and bad. My first graphics accelerator (or dececelerator) was an S3 Virge I bought to play Descent II with hardware rendering. Big mistake.

True. When I haven't updated my mom's computer in several months (it runs Manjaro) there are a lot of pending updates. In fact, most of the OS AND programs get updated, and the download size is at must a little over 1GB. Linux reserves by default 5% of any given filesystem for root (so if the /...

Well, I'm impatiently awaiting AMD's conference today.

I think it should be called 7th gen refresh refresh. Or better yet, Skylake refresh refresh refresh.

The import wizard will move everything, bookmarks, history, passwords and even cookies. As for the "mess" with bookmarks, you can easily order them in the FF bookmark manger. Why change? You get to try something new. You like it, great, you don't like it, then it's fine. It won't be much of a...

You can tell FF to import everything from Chrome for you. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-bookmarks-data-another-browser There's also FF for Android and you can sync your devices with FF Sync.

Yes and no. ECC RAM usually does not have ultra-low timings as performance oriented modules have, but the timings agre comparable to mainstream RAM modules. My experience had been that you can use lower timings in ECC modules than what the SPD advertises.

Forgot to mention, DDR3 ECC UDIMMs work in consumer boards, at least it has in every one I've tested (many Gigabyte, Zotac and AsRock in mATX or ITX form factor). ECC RAM is cheaper than non-ECC RAM, so you can upgrade RAM for cheap. Of course, you won't get any ECC functionality.

The only DDR4 rig I owned was a Skylake ITX build, from a time you could buy a decent kit of 16GB of DDR4-2400 for $75. As RAM prices are still insane, I've dedicated myself to build systems from old parts I got laying around and used ones from eBay. DDR3 prices are ridiculously low, I got 16GB...

Could this be a scam site? How could they be selling unannounced unreleased products? I'm sure Zen2 will be great, but I'm skeptical about those clocks.

Sounds good, except it's Epic Games we're taking about. Well go from bad to much worse.

Nice! Makes me want to play it again.

Why do people complain about this? The are curved monitors, now Apple gives you curved tablets. It's a feature.

I never liked the look and "feel" of Chrome, and the new look I like even less. Forcing change on people is bad, forcing stupid superfluous (aesthetic) changes on people is bad and stupid.

Sure, 8bitdo controllers are awesome for retro gaming. I have a Zero, a NES30 Pro and a SN30 Pro and play old games with my kids on a Fire 4K (2015)

And they'll f*ck up their Linux or DM with every update

Hmmm... That's beyond evil!

With THEIR toothbrush

I would have used something that really ruined clothes, upholstery and walls, paint, inkjet ink or similar. I would also use something that scares the shit out of them, something like a high db alarm siren that cannot be turned off or a flashbang.
