I had to interview over 5k of them just to come up with 150 that were anywhere near hiring
You interviewed five thousand people? Are you sure you have that number right? Assuming you interviewed five people a day every single working day, it would take you four years to interview that many people. That's assuming no time off, no sickness, a steady supply of candidates, etc. I know a fair number of people in HR across a few organisations, and they don't manage to interview anywhere near that many people on a regular basis.
As in the headline "lowest voter turnout in 70 years"? As in, " Just 36.4 percent of eligible voters turned out in 2014" http:/// www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/2014-midterm-election-turnout-lowest-in-70-years/
This is a US national disgrace. You don't like who's running, so just go play video games, and let the oldigarchs get the best government money can buy.
If you didn't vote, shut up. Better, leave, and go somewhere that you can play games, and as long as you do that, the government won't bother you. Hmmm, isn't North Korea like that?

Some of us are using those GPUs for actual work - like serious scientific computation. Anyone know anything about how this bit switch would affect CUDA?

... and no one threatens me. Bounties would be nice... but I think I'd start out with the simple solution: you threaten me, you're a coward. Come on, show up at at and try to kill me... or are you that much of a coward that you can't deal with what I said, and if you actually do something, you'll want to shoot me in the back, just like any *coward*.

PS trolls - yeah, your cock *is* too small, and if you've ever gotten laid, you've never been able to satisfy a woman - you're just a selfish little kid, not a man.
The surface pro is one of the better devices to come out of redmond. It hands down beats the Ipad in lots of areas except for the apps.
and the sales.
You're comparing two numbers from different sources. The "more than 30" source is "news reports suggest". The "less than 3%" source is Virgin Galactic. It's not that Virgin Galactic can't add up, it's that they have more accurate numbers than suggestions from news reports.
So if someone is out of date with the terminology I can't explain it to them because that makes me a patronizing asshole? OK, noted.
I said nothing of the sort. By all means, explain it. That's a good thing. Just don't liken them to technological halfwits while you are doing it. That's unwarranted.
I've got no problem with encouraging the correct terminology, it's the fact that it implies somebody who is a bit out of date with the project's branding is a technological halfwit who doesn't understand the difference between an organisation and a software package. It's KDE themselves that mixed the two up.
It hardly seems right to liken people referring to the desktop as "KDE" as if they were people saying that they "boot their Microsoft". KDE stands for the K Desktop Environment, and it has referred to the software itself for the majority of it's existence.
There are some bits which are missing from Plasma 5 which are planned to be filled in over the next six months.
You mean like what happened with KDE 4? Because that really turned out well.
But with Apple Watch's requirement that the user constantly monitor its energy
Just because you're likely to have to charge it overnight, it doesn't mean that the user has to "constantly monitor its energy". This is a ridiculously biased perspective.
You still have to have the phone on you.
Yeah, but just because you have your phone on you, it doesn't mean it's as convenient to use as a watch. When I go running, I've usually got my phone strapped to my upper arm. It's difficult to see the screen or take an action compared with if I could just glance at my wrist. The watch also has a heart rate monitor.
My odds on winning the lottery for hundreds of millions of dollars, and buying a ticket on a Soyuz to the Space Station are *vastly* better than your odds of catching ebola.
For that matter, my odds of getting killed when someone "looses control" of their car and jumps the sidewalk are zillions of times higher than catching ebola.
Oh... and I work not a few hundred yearas from where one of the nurses that was suspected of having it was sent.
