My gaming/photoshop machine has an Ivy Bridge i7, 32Gig and a video card that was current and expensive from Nvidia at the time.
I perceive no problems with it running any games. I might get higher framerates or something if I upgraded, but I'm not sure how it would improve my enjoyment of the games any.
If they added a feature to the video card to stop family members interrupting me when I'm playing multiplayer, I'd be upgrading right away.
I presume this is one of those words that means something other than what it appears to mean. I don't own an agency and I don't fear it being taken away from me. Agency in the sense of 'capacity to act' is hopelessly non specific for what ever the hell is is you were referring to.
>I'm glad you're wealthy enough that you can get prissy about what the thing you're eating
It's nothing to do with wealth. It's to do with what cows evolved to eat. They eat grass in countries of all wealth levels. It's only places with bizarre corn subsidies that their primary food is corn.
>But that's not really relevent since grass fed herds were slaughtered as well. And I ate some of them. Win-win, except for the cow.
Most property already has utility easements unless they're very rural, even then it's simple enough to seize with Imminent Domain for "the greater good"
And we all wonder why there is a GamerGate scandal.... Because some people still don't know what Naughty By Nature's lyrics meant, 23 years later? Sorry, bud, not making the connection...
Sorry, never heard of them. I see they had some success a long time ago, but it didn't impinge on my consciousness.
Perhaps you could clarify how no knowing these lyrics has any bearing on why where is a GamerGate scandal? Are you saying that if Naughty by Nature wrote different lyrics, the GamerGate scandal would not have occured?
I just have my personal experience of discussing scientific results in nutrition forums. Then every now and the, all at once, a bunch of vegans turn up and start making daft statements with no scientific basis.
E.G. Blaming nitrites in bacon and hotdogs for cancer when celery has a much higher nitrite content and isn't linked with cancer. etc. I could go on and on with more examples, but I'm at work and need to get my job done.
I have a pot roast in the oven right now. I put it on as low as the oven will go this morning and when I get back from work, there will be a pot of awesome, moist, tender beef sitting in gravy and it will be good.
People have their own individual reasons for being vegans.
So why do they congregate in groups on online nutrition forums and do nothing but add scientifically unsupportable claims about their diet? It looks very much like a group activity to me.
Really? Headline from the Los Angles Times: "Obama urges net neutrality; Cruz calls it 'Obamacare for the Internet'"
In case you have your head so far up your ass, Republicans are against government regulation. FYI Ted Cruz is a Republican who opposes government regulation.
Fair enough. I'm with the Pres and not with the Cruz on this one, but this is a recent turn of events. I have very low expectations.
Say what you want about Obama, but I guarantee the next president (probably Republican) won't care about preserving Net Neutrality.
I might be a tree hugging liberal, but the Dems have an awful record when it comes to regulating technology. The toxic relationship with Hollywood is one reason. I don't see why the Republicans would be any better or worse.
Technology sits outside the brain space of politicians, so they treat is as a contribution-for-laws cash cow.
>And since I spend power for heating, the 100W processor gives as much heat as 100W resistor. Heat pump cannot operate since temperature difference is usually big enough
Yes. This is why the power efficiency of a computer is strictly a function of how you define 'useful work'.

>are all New York Times best sellers
Can we have information on what books are best sellers without the result being interfered with by a crappy newspaper?
It was? Oh well, I blew it.
>I bet they would dispute your opinion of corn subsidies...
I suspect they would prefer to not be poor over having to eat unhealthy cheap meat from unhealthy cows fed an unhealthy cow-diet.
Check your own grammar before pointing out somebody else's mistake. ;-)
I left that as a little gift to the next grammar Nazi.
East. Now in space.
It has always been in space, it is the rotational direction where the sun rises.
I thought the sun stayed more or less in the same place.

I can do punctuation too. You're welcome.
Patents have a limited span, no? When the patent runs out, it's anybody's game. So, what's the problem?
Pedants have a limited life span too.
>no one wanted beef cattle because the price was so low.
Many of us don't want beef that was fed on corn anyway.
I didn't say "In everyone else's experience". I said "In my experience". I didn't buy a 2011 MBP.
Most property already has utility easements unless they're very rural, even then it's simple enough to seize with Imminent Domain for "the greater good"
Is the domain about the happen any time now?
I'm not Leonid! I'm Spock, the actoor.
Mars isn't a acronym, it's a bar.
In my experience, mac laptops cost 20% more and last twice as long as alternative PC laptop manufacturers. That doesn't seem like a bad deal to me.
So it can busy loop on multiple cores at the same time? Yippee.

You can't audit those that don't get a license. You have to go and find them and check their age.
If you don't have a license scheme, you still have to go and find them and check their age.
The license does nothing to prevent this.
