I use linux as a gaming platform. I have 100s of titles to choose from on steam. What few titles i want that are not there run fine on wine (ok so only one title, Eve online).

Also gaming mouse/keyboards etc work out of the box for me, on linux. So yea think your a bit behind the times on plug and pray. It really is mostly plug and play. Including bluetooth stuff, game controllers, etc.

Well in a democracy, that is kinda their job. If the majority have the same superstitions. Tyranny of the majority and all that. There is no legal requirement to have judgments based on science.

Again what the fuck are you talking about. Another gamer thinks they know whats going on. OpenGL is far from dead or obsolete.

What the fuck are you talking about. Spot the gamer who knows NOTHING about the APIs.

Yea cus candy crush experience is right up there with state of the art CAD software.

Oh wait. No its not.

Apple, overpriced laptops for shitty mobiles games. Yet some dumb arse is still bound to buy it.

And my hinky meter is off the charts. How many teens talk at all on phones or even more to the point with their phones up against their head.

These studies are so... axe grindy. They start with the premise of finding what they already "know". Often the stats are soo poorly done that i wouldn't let a highschooler get away with it. But it gets publish because this makes impact factors look good. So yea without reading it, would be very very skeptical.

More often than not. Yea seriously. A heap of studies that really do get publish are literately that bad. Don't assume "experts" or "peer review" changes anything.

TLDR; Most of the panels had no more than a 2% reduction in output over 25 years. One panel showed signs of the hot spot fault and there was some contact corrosion. The paper concluded that 25 years was realistic life time for these old panels and that with new cladding and encasing methods is probably very conservative with modern units.

I think his strength is to pick the right people. He mostly doesn't do it himself. But rinse and repeat, he has pulled things like this off more than a few times now.

Musk seems to be a bit better than the average, hell these days the gates foundation is actually pretty good. He, like a few others are not the typical fortune 500 CEO. They made their wealth on that new fangled internet thing long before the typical wall street troll got their teeth stuck in.

I for one welcome our new billionaire overlords. They seem a lot better than the last lot.

I was shocked to hear the other day that 4chan is not what it once was. Apparently they all moved over to reddit.

What you need is buffer chests.. But fan of buffer chest in Factori... oh wait. This is Real life, never mind.

Only in some countries. In NZ they are meaningless. They can pay retainer, but once they stop paying you they cannot interfere with your ability to earn. However if you breach a NDA (good luck proving it) you are still on the hook.

A good post wasted to that wanker AC!

I hope so. I am a year overdue for a new PC that can play doom. I only got 9 hours out of that game before my last PC died.
