How is it running with 4 sticks of memory? I have yet to have the time to open any boxes for my build, let alone actually put it together.

Went to Microcenter this afternoon. Apparently they zeroed out inventory of 3900x and 3700x to deter people from buying them all up in store. Home with it and a a320 board which will be home to the 1600. Now to put the Smunchkin and twins to bed.

Well, stuck with my R5 1600 for a little longer. Seller didn't ship or communicate for two weeks, and when I filed a complaint, I received refund. I should have figured as much. Even though seller had exemplary feed back, I'm guessing he saw that he could charge $750 for one, rather than...

The B4s are better speakers in terms of quality than the BS22s and I say this as one that has the BS22s. I might choose the BS22s if the price difference was as great as it was in that review. However, for $13 more, you are getting a superior speaker in the B4.

B & H I have the Debut B5's and really like them. The B4s are better than anything you will get at that price, and will definite punch above their class. They aren't the most efficient speakers, so I would NOT suggest driving them with a low powered Class D desktop amp, they need a little...

Amazon uk had them on pre order. No USB 5v adapter with the European version, but I don't need one. It won't arrive for 3 weeks. I also bought one through thinkgeek this morning.

Got one reply. Didn't get another one, let me know and I will send PP.

We were warned of this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRkAY1ClTMo#t=1m05s

Based on my observations of how my female coworkers are treated and stories and first hand observations of how my fiancee and her colleagues are treated, I would say these women are spot on. Most of you neck beards would wet your pants if even a mildly attractive STEM career woman asked you for...

She makes it worth it thank you very much. And my bachelor party plans are pretty awesome.

Oh boy, this made the neck beards mad. Even had a Hilary reference. As a man who is going to marry an academic in the sciences, I am getting a kick out of these replies.

Not really. The behavior has not changed. Social media is just another way to express it.

I think you are going wayyy overboard. Posting a single selfie is hardly indicative of pschopathy and the study doesn't claim that. Its not as if this behavior didn't exist before social media, or doesn't exist outside of it.

Women who do this sort of thing are equally as capable of being anti-social and unhealthy. However, society's perspective on such behavior is different regarding women than it is regarding men. Women that do these things are equally capable of victimizing men. Women can and do use and abuse...

Obvious internet "know it all" neckbeards and MRAs are obvious. I almost thought my ex wrote this paper since its in her field of study. Then again, it would have been the (sad) irony of ironies if she did, since she pretty much married such a man (either never left him, or got back together...

My work for the day is done.

What? I am sorry. Let me rephrase that so you can understand what I wrote: Wut?

I cut my programming teeth on Atari BASIC. I learned to program basic before I learned to ride a bike. Helps having a dad who headed an Atari users club. Good times. BASIC, Pascal and FORTRAN are the only languages I have learned. FORTRAN is still fairly important at work.

Yeah, this is a thread necro, but I never thought to check that it was posted here. GIven the topic, its no surpise that it was. This study is amusing, given what I know of one of the authors.

Who cares? Amazon keeps [H]ard|Forum FREE!

Please kill yourself.

I am a reactor engineer, aka, a fuel system engineer. I plan and analyze all scheduled reactivity maneuvers for control rod pattern changes, maintenance downpowers, startups, shutdowns etc. and directly support the operators in their execution. I perform a number of reactivity related tech...

It is at any school worth a darn. I am a plant rat. And I work on the reactor. There is no such degree as reactor engineering.

Mining and nuclear would probably follow right after petroleum engineers. Mineral and energy engineering disciplines is the place to be. If you are a masochist

Yeah, I don't think petroleum engineering grad students are worried too much about the bump in salary they'll get over just having a bachelor's. 2nd mistake when pursuing a graduate degree (well, any degree) in a STEM field: doing it for the money. My M.S. degree was worth about 10% over a...

Anyone who pays for a graduate degree in a STEM field is doing it wrong. Thanks INPO and the DOE.

I still want to know how Steve thinks that control systems for nuclear power plants can be hacked and accessed from the internet...especially since they are mostly analog, and those that are digital systems that have some sort of computer control are completely isolated from any external...

Nice try, but no.

I did. Do you know how the caucuses work? Apparently not. How will occupying the presidential campaign headquarters in the state shut down the caucuses? The caucuses will be happening in every single voting precinct in the state. Do they plan on occupying all of them?

Precincts, oops.

Um. Do they even know how the caucuses work? How do they plan on shutting them down? State presidential caucuses are the most grassroots events in the entire presidential candidate selection process. It's not as if they have some voting machines to hack. Do they plan on sending...

The bastards.

Wow, well stated.

I almost want to buy you a monitor, since you apparently don't realize that display technology has advanced quite a bit in the last 20 years. Almost.

Haha. Oh wait, you're serious.

Where exactly do you find electric rates at 3 cents per kwh? Nuclear power production is on the order of 2 cents per kwh or less and is neck and neck or cheaper than coal. Coal is cheap, but the main reason that coal is so prevalent is that 1) initial capital costs are lower than a comparable...

Not sure if serious, but no. They can elect to purchase electricity from suppliers that get some or all of their generation from renewable sources in competitive markets. They can also work with local/state governments on encouraging the build of renewable generation in areas which they wish...
