if my country, if you go over 1300kw/month, your electric bill doubles. Yes, it's insane. Check your power bill and tell me how much you use.

i don't think anyone runs debian as a desktop friendly distribution. In my case, i have a small server on it, and installed a GUI not for me, but for everyone else that may use it and get lost without a GUI. I chose XFCE.

I was looking at the 970 just before you posted, i can't believe that kind of performance at less than 100$ more of my budget, with that incredible low power draw (which is important to me, on my country we are heavily penalized for high power consumption, since we have blackouts every day)

It's tempting... Let's see what happens on december.

I have just seen a 285 review, which is basically a 280 with more features and same price.

For what i have seen, the 285 beats the 760 on every front, including power draw, and the nvidia response was to lower the price about 30$.

I haven't bought nvidia for years, while they have great drivers and performance, power use and price hasn't been competitive.

I will keep looking to see if the prices change or a new board gets introduced by december. I am not happy the 285 is still a 2GB card, while my 22" monitor isn't even 1980p so it shouldn't matter much.

I'm on the market for a GPU this december. My requirements are: less than 250$, low power consumption, good compatibility with Z77 chipset (intel i5 3570k), no overclocking needed, low noise, best performance/price ratio and of course better performance than my current GPU (msi twin 7850 2GB).

So far i have seen either a r9 280 or gtx 760.
Anyone would like to offer some advice?

somehow i think he is just trying to hide behind a VPN to do some "torrenting"

that's about 25% of a standard (250MB) data plan in Venezuela.
Still, i can call family in the US with wifi. I previously had to use either skype or hangouts for ios.

i get 7 days on mine without notifications (i am using it as a watch with some offline apps). What watch face do you use?

I have 1.5 Mbps, and we call it broadband here in Venezuela. Basic 360p Youtube, and netflix (SD) even works.

I would KILL for 10 Mbps, let alone 4 Mbps. You guys are lucky!

The only reason i can think to justify a binary log is to save disk space.

I agree with some of the criticism regarding systemd, but reading logs is not one of them. Just learn the systemctl and journalctl syntax before you ask silly questions regarding reading logs.

here's (no pun intended) hoping that we can sideload the here app somehow on the rest of android phones

Modprobe uses libkmod, so upstart and sysvinit indirectly use ipv6

thank you, i knew about the legacy bootloader but i didn't know it enabled F8

I only reboot windows once a month after patch tuesday.
Crappy experiences are mostly gone since 7 (and in my case, since Vista as well. I experienced only one major bug in vista, slow file copying which was fixed in SP1)
