Well yeah, those gold cables weigh a bit more but the speed of the extra conductivity is worth it. Helps to give a desk that touch of bling as well.
I don't get it, if you have three fingers up top what is left over to accidentally brush that strange button that you've never configured that just seems to make the x server freeze for long to start to worry you before it comes back to life?
No, but I would if I could. A mouse button that interrupts processes would make me a little bit erect.
This car has a 6000cc engine. True, only 5500cc can be used at once, but if the main engine is switched off then the little 500cc engine on the side can do a golf cart impression pretty well.
Thank fricking God it requires developer mode.
That is all. A number of us fricking killed ourselves to make sure the thing would notify you when someone had futzed with your machine, and it'd be a terrible shame if 3 minutes and a screwdriver could trojan your machine.
Wake me up when they post a useful article on how to run Unix on my Macbook Pro.
Mac OS X *is* UNIX. It's certified. Wake me up when Linux passes conformance testing.
PS: We even put UUCP on the damn thing to pass the tests; it's definitely UNIX, so feel free to spin up your own NetNews node on your MacBook Air.
Interesting cases, thanks for the reply.
I'm using an Asus PB287Q with a GTX970. It sits on the boundary, so Elite Dangerous and Wolfenstein are comfortable in 4k. Far Cry and Metro need to drop to 2560x1440 to hit 50-60fps. Anything under 40fps is unplayable on this combo, not so much to do with looking bad, it feels like the input lag jumps below that rate.
The monitor looks alright at 1440p, a little soft and washed out but still better than my previous monitors in their native modes. In 4k the picture is unbelievable. At this size and sitting about 50cm from the screen it has a cinematic feel, but 1080p is painful to watch.
(3) Sit back and watch how well the new SWATting works!
what's new about it?
2 years in prison, a million $ fine, and no actual SWAT teams involved?
And now... 3... 2... 1...
(1) Find a journalist you don't like who has linked to a vulnerable site they don't control
(2) Replace the content at the link target with illegally obtained material about someone powerful
(3) Sit back and watch how well the new SWATting works!
Journalistic shield laws anyone? The new first amendment-resistant law enforcement looks like we need something to replace the old antibiotics...
Their funny definition of "walk" is designed to go with their funny definition of "bio-inpired".
No one wants to switch from a Mac/Windows to a Windows/Mac system if their files or programs are not 100% guaranteed to work.
Most businesses use this same example:
"No one wants to switch from a Windows XP system to a Windows [inset non-XP Windows here] if their files or programs are not 100% guaranteed to work."
Why do you equate gun-rights advocates with KKK members?
When your hash table only has two buckets, you either hash into bucket 'A' or you hash into bucket 'B'.
Is that in Surface Detail, or do you mean the opening to Excession?
