I can see gaming mice as a legitimate thing, more buttons for mapping, etc., but overall I hate the "gaming computer" market BS, especially on things like motherboards. Seriously an extra flashing light or weird shaped motherboard heatsink isn't going to do squat all for making your gaming...
While I agree it's not a hack, it's pretty far from an option where the average person can go, "I don't want to any updates, I'll just click the turn off windows updates button". Most people need help configuring their email client, if you think they would be aware of the command line option to...
From that Article:
.....I've seen rumors of 6-core parts with 12 threads, similar to Intel's $600 Core i7-6850K retailing for around $250 and the SR3 - potentially a 4-core part with 8 threads has been rumored to land at around $150....
If that turns out to be true and has Haswell IPC, I'll be...
I stopped updates with windows 10.
I don't accept the permission for MS to irreversibly change shit on my PC at their whim, such as removing policies from user access, or like in this case mandating that you are unable to install software you don't want.
I removed all of MS's shit then locked them out of my gaming boot partition. I use Mint most of the time, only use windows for games and VMware vSphere.
MS can go eat a dick if they think I'm going to let them push changes to my PC. The first two policies solve the issue, though I have the...
They waive it if you give them a hard time.
A while back it was cheaper with my work discount to get ATT then an MVNO, after spending 45 minutes setting with the sales rep discussing everything they say, the final thing is the Activation fees. I told them, "nevermind, I don't pay activation...
Wireless sucks.
If I was offered 100 mbit symetrical ethernet or 1gigabit symetrical wireless (of any variety), I'd take he 100 mbit wire every single time.
Deterrence.
It might not stop him (you can't fix stupid), but it will prevent others from doing it by setting an example of what happens if you do this.
We have 9 computers in the home.
Three run Linux.
Three run ESXi.
One runs Mac OS
One runs Linux/Win 7 dual boot
One runs Windows 8 as a HTPC.
Win 10 doesn't have media center = not interested. I have a HD homerun prime for TV and have had it for at least 5 years. Lets see, I can pay Comcrap...
HAHAHA... you think Facebook is a social media company? Facebook is an advertising and data aggregation company. Their goal isn't to make a social media platform, it's to collect data and monetize it. You say Zuckerburg is "what's wrong with facebook", you couldn't be farther from the truth...
CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) being foisted off as network cabling isn't something new. CCA doesn't meet specifications. Any CCA sold as Cat5e, Cat6, etc. is falsely advertised. Period.
She claims to have had T-mobile phone insurance. I'm not sure if T-mobile made a mistake such as saying she didn't have it, or if they even offer insurance for phones and if so what the parameters of the agreement are, so I can't comment on that.
That being said, the phone dispute and deciding...
What can't I be serious about? That I upgrade when the performance difference is large enough and time is not a large factor? Give me 50% more performance and I'll upgrade. If it takes you 8 years to do it then you won't see a penny from me until that time. If you do it in 3 years then I'll...
Honestly makes me wonder why Intel doesn't make larger improvements. Is it that they are incapable or that they choose to? I get the feeling it's choice, which doesn't make sense to me. I'll upgrade when something much better comes along, meaning Intel isn't only competing with AMD but is...
Hoping for a $300 6 core or $380 8 core with Haswell level IPC or better. If that happens I have my money ready. If not, my 2500K will keep chugging along. I have spare a Sandy/Ivy Mobo as well, so I should be able to use this platform for 3 more years if needed.
Also, apparently over on...
Ha ha, how ironic. I helped my dad setup his new PC and he asked, "what's that edge thing?". I told him "it's the program that's only used to download firefox".
All I can say is that if Intel lowers their prices by a lot to match AMD Zen on price/performance, I will buy the AMD chip. If Intel was gouging just because they could, then I will buy the competitor product for that reason alone.

It was more a lighthearted reference to the overall general reliability of Chrysler, not your particular vehicle in the driveway. that being said, I'd recommend something from Toyota in your budget :P
How accurate is their measurement? Does the consumer have visibility into the measurement to assure accuracy? What counts as transferred data - IP level headers? transport headers? Then you have to define the quantities - what's 1 GB - 10^9 or 2^30?? What about dropped packets? How about...
I consider iOS a negative feature, and something to avoid if possible. Why would I want a locked down device where a company, Apple in this case, can control and limit what apps I can install on my device that I paid for? I like the ability to use apks or install 3rd party app stores like...
How do you expect anyone to answer that question? Outside of it's pending launch soon, Ryzen is an unknown at this point. We don't have prices. We don't have performance data. Your question might as well verbatim read, "Chevy is making a new car, will you buy it?"
