    If you can't find a citation, then you obviously work for the Justice Department in "investigating" anything wrong with Hillary.

    Those of us who learned about this thing called "Google" back in the 90s don't have such problems:

    You evil denialist filth! Off to the gas chambers! The models are always right! The science is settled dammit!

    Oh wait, you mean we are saying that we were "wrong" in a direction that happens to be politically convenient for the people running the show and requesting taxpayer money?

    In that case, the science isn't settled you denialist scum!

  4. They need more censorship on Twitter Is Cutting 9% of Its Global Workforce (adweek.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    Twitter is obviously failing because they have refused to make Twitter a safe space from fascist Nazis like:
    1. Trump.
    2. Anybody who doesn't support Hillary (with the exception of Bernie supporters who converted by the deadline set forth in form 402-33R6).
    3. White racists... oh wait, I should have just said "all white people with the exception of those we approve of".
    4. Non-atheists*
    5. Homophobes (e.g. anyone not gay).
    6. Cisgendered
    7. Gay people aren't really gay because they don't think what we tell them to think (looking at you Milo & Thiel!)
    8. Any racist sports figures that don't flip the bird or at least kneel during the National Anthem.

    * MUSLIMS ARE AN EXCEPTION (assuming you are violent that is).

    I think that after these impure hate-mongers have been burned off from Twitter that the safe space will flourish and all problems will be solved.

    "Thiel gave $1.25M to a candidate who'd just had it revealed he has serious problems with women (to put a politically correct spin on it),"

    Sure sounds like Hillary/Bill to me.

    " who is/was telling people he wouldn't accept the results of the election if he loses,"

    Maybe you have a point there. After all, it sounds like Trump is agreeing with Al Gore and that's not a good look.

    " and who previously has supported violence against his opponents,"

    Yeah, Hillary supports violence right now and violated campaign finance laws to coordinate the violence. Ever seen Project Veritas?

    " who is threatening legal sanctions against his opponents and the press,"

    Sounds like Clinton to me too.

    " and who has engaged in racial scapegoating and in dehumanizing minorities."

    Basket of Deplorables. Not to mention the racist lynch mob waiting for any "minority" who gets uppity and doesn't lick Massa Hilary's boots like a good little house slave.

    So Elon's panties are all up in a bunch over supposedly overblown negative media coverage?

    How about all the overblown positive media coverage he's been lapping up for years while running an unprofitable business that caters to wealthy customers getting taxpayer funded bonuses to buy his cars?

    Isn't it fair that all of that media coverage should be withdrawn too?

    "Why should I listen to someone that doesn't know the difference between affect and effect?"

    I don't know. However, since I used "affected" correctly that statement has nothing to do with my post.

  11. Re:Cheap catalysts on CO2 To Ethanol In One Step With Cheap Catalyst (sciencedaily.com) · · Score: 2

    The catalyst is not consumed in the reaction but the catalyst most certainly can be affected by a reaction. If you don't believe me then explain why fuel cell poisoning isn't real.

    The price of the catalyst is also most certainly important too.

    It's good to see the NSA step up to patriotically ensure Hillary's ascendancy to the throne. They were slacking compared to the loyalty of the DOJ who selflessly made sure to destroy the laptops of anybody on her staff who might have had incriminating evidence.

    We only censor the "bad" and "dangerous" stuff from the "alt-right" Trumpiness that God-Emperor Clinton has declared to be racist!

    After all, freedom means being able to listen to the carefully constructed narrative that we have decided to feed you, and since we have unilaterally declared Trump to be racist for threatening our H1B pool, it's OK to censor him!

    We never EVER censored a legitimate left-winger social justice warrior who believes in diversity just like us!! That's why that interview with the Green Party's Jill Stein that mysteriously disappeared from Facebook after receiving over 100k hits was NOT censored! Instead, we have determined that it never existed in the first place and you are all ordered to bow and pray towards Hillary 5 times today because it's the only way to purge yourself of your white privilege.

  23. Re:4K HDR video on Intel Demos Kaby Lake 7th Gen Core Series Running Overwatch At IDF (hothardware.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    HDR HEVC video on 4K is not trivial to process on a very low power CPU. That's where the hardware acceleration comes in as being important.

    As a point of reference, my desktop 4770K that's overclocked to 4.7GHz can have problems with playback of 60 Hz 4K HEVC video when in software mode, and that's with a software decoder that's using all available cores too.

    With mpv setup properly, my GTX-1080 can show the same videos perfectly smoothly with single-digit CPU usage and the GPU doesn't even really heat up that much either since only a relatively small part of the GPU actually does the video acceleration. The hardware accelerated paths for video decoding are quite important.

    Be careful comparing ancient parts (that in AMD's case are being sold as "new" because they haven't had anything really new for 5 years) in the bargain bin to new stuff. It won't look good on a price/performance basis for AMD next year when Zen finally launches if you do.
