They still don't support Unicode, how the hell are they going to manage to write code to stop troll behavior when Twitter and Facebook can't even shitcan the fake news bots?
Yes, 80% support net neutrality, but is it an important enough issue for them to vote for a particular candidate on it?
I have a feeling the numbers are a lot softer on that question, which is why we never see it quoted, and there's still any form of debate whatsoever. The candidates know the answer to that one - very few of these asshats will likely lose their seat over NN alone, but it might be the icing on their goodbye cake if they are in a tight race.
While impressed with FC5, I have to say that there are some amazing oversights that rip me right out of that world and start questioning what the hell they were thinking.
Yes, they have a big open world to explore, and the thing is fairly non-linear in nature. However, it's mostly a big EMPTY open world, so in order to not feel empty, they cranked up the random spawns of shit-kicker cultists in pickup trucks to a truly absurd level. You can go back and forth between two intersections killing rednecks all day and just pile up pickup trucks and weapons, never moving more than 100 yards. Where is all of this shit coming from? Do they have a Ford factory somewhere just cranking out white trucks for these assholes? And how many of these guys do you have to kill before they start taking notice and the less devout start to decide that getting a bullet in the head like four or five thousand of their friends isn't worth the supposed gains of hanging out in the regional bunker? And where did they get all the fully automatic weapons, rocket launchers, grenades, and airplanes with machineguns / helicopters with mounted rocket pods from? Did they boost the armory of an ex-Soviet republic or something? I know that Montanans love their guns and all that shit, but come on now - this is just past the point of extreme absurdity.
And don't even get me started on the completely out-of-nowhere ending.
All that being said, if you can suspend the extreme disbelief the game will incur upon you, it's really a lot of fun to play in cooperative mode - get a few friends together, load up into an SUV, one drives while the rest lean out the window with guns, and go blow away cultist rubes until the sun comes up. Ram that vehicle through the front gates of some place crawling with extremist douchebags, power slide that thing in there and gun everyone down. Hell, hit them with the SUV and run them under both axles. Fly a helicopter into a cult controlled location and have your team drop out and take the place down while you fly overhead and strafe the inevitable incoming backup vehicles. Collect enough quad bikes and make like a gang roaming the highways taking out the trash.
Just don't be looking for anything that's actually explainable in the known universe.
And what does a "worn" GPU look like, exactly? You aren't buying used tires here, where there is a measurable lifetime of operation.
People have been buying second-hand server gear for as long as eBay has existed, and roughly all of it works as advertised. And no, not all of it were in perfect data centers kept at exactly 65 degrees F / 49% RH for the entire lifetime of that gear. Some of it was shoved into small closets and had shit stacked on top of it, and that stuff works just as good too.
And if the cooling on the chip is adequate to keep the operating temperature stable and below the manufacturer's stated maximum, then there should be no problem unless the manufacturer misstated the spec AND failed to allow firmware to throttle back if temperature exceeds the spec.
It's not like these things have a duty cycle like a cheap piece of shit electric tool where you can only run it for 1 minute and then have to let it cool for 3+ or your'll cook the motor. Thermal engineers actually designed the cooler to... you know... keep it at operating temperature under load.
I never said there isn't reason to use a higher quality cable than the cheapest piece of shit that can be cobbled together and sold with the HDMI logo on it, whether earned or not. It's not like there aren't counterfeits out there or anything.
I did say, however, that if you already have good enough SNR to actually get the whole signal, a better cable isn't somehow going to get you more information than what you're already getting.
Seriously, look at the marketing for some of these cables. Please tell me what the fuck you are getting out of this $1500 HDMI cable that you don't get from a $30 cable which is probably overpriced as well, because Belkin. Please explain what properties the first one has, beyond a level of price gouging that the pharmaceutical industry wishes they could get away with, that somehow increase signal quality above a certified cable from a reputable manufacturer at 1/50 of the cost.
This is of course an extreme example of what I was referring to, but there's no shortage of $100 cables that do exactly what a cable that costs 1/3 the price would do in the exact same environment and equipment. Previously performed testing would tell us that there is no difference as long as you are receiving adequate signal, and using magic cables that purport to come close to superconductivity for the close to the price of actual superconducting materials are nothing but a colossal waste of money, sold by modern-age hucksters plying on people's ignorance seeded by an analog past where the cable quality only suffers diminishing returns, rather than a threshold of garbage-signal-versus-adequate-signal that we get with digital communications.
There's distortion that people prefer, and distortion that don't. the $100 turntable may have too much of what they don't want, where a more expensive one makes a sound that is preferable.
Yes, as you go farther up in price, the differences become more minute, and actually placebo - the point you're trying to make in a rather hamfisted way. But at the lower end there is definitely a difference just in the mechanics of how the thing works - belt drive versus direct drive, the quality of vibration dampening of the motor, configuration of the tone arm, etc.
Example: a cheap turntable with a belt drive motor that takes a good second or so to get to the proper RPM, and doesn't have enough torque to maintain 33.3 RPM once the tone arm is dragging along the vinyl. Because the motor sucks or has a belt that slips, the audio being reproduced at the incorrect rotation speed will be at the wrong tempo, and frequency shifted lower. That's distortion people don't want, and is corrected by using higher quality components.
Example 2: a direct-drive motor turntable that has insufficient vibration dampening, which causes the motor vibration to be picked up by the tone arm. That is distortion people don't want, and is corrected with higher quality of design and build.
The point is to make money off of the same idiots that buy really expensive HDMI cables, because apparently the idea of minimum signal-to-noise ratios in digital communications are completely lost on that crowd.
The ones are so much one-ier with this $90 Monster cable than they were with the cheap $10 Amazon Basics cable! What do you mean that as long as there's decodeable digital signal, it doesn't much matter if I'm 20 dB over the noise or 50 dB over the noise?!
It's slightly different in this circumstance - they don't quite get that once an audio signal that has been sent through the wood chipper we call "Bluetooth SBC encoding", adding anything that is supposed to enhance reproduction quality is a complete waste of time. You are amplifying the hell out of the artifacts, and the frequencies where information used to be, but no longer is.
Or, "digital" doesn't offer enough information in order to make an accurate assessment of what's going on. For example: I'm no sound engineer, but I'm guessing the studio has far higher quality equipment using far higher sampling rates and bit depth per sample than standard 44khz PCM. Once the master is made in the much higher quality, it's then downsampled to the CD audio and digital files distributed to iTunes / Google Play / Pandora / Spotify / Amazon / Whoever.
If the Vinyl is cut from the higher quality, then it's going to be a reproduction of that higher quality digital combined with the qualities of the vinyl and whatever turntable is being used.
And its a terrible thing that absolutely no other company sells sedans in North America. Certainly not GM, Toyota, VW, Honda, Fiat / Chrysler, Kia, Hyundai, Subaru, BMW, Mercedes, or any of their associates brands and subsidiaries.
Horse shit. Basically every bike except the boutique dealers is made by Giant these days, so just buy a Giant and don't pay for the brand and higher-end components that you won't even notice the difference on. By and large, they are all the same frame with a different paint job and different components bolted on.
You can get a brand new Giant "city" bike with disc brakes for $600 MSRP. Find a dealer who's clearancing a prior year model (which, again, nobody except an avid cyclist is likely to notice the difference between the components as long as they aren't 10 year old completely unmaintained garbage) and you can have it for less than that.
"good bike" is subjective, and there are GREAT bikes available for far less than $5,000 new. You don't need a fucking carbon fiber frame with Shimano Dura-ace components front-to-back on your commuter bike - you aren't entering the Tour de France here. Also, there's this web site called "Craigslist" that you may have heard of, which connects you with people that are selling used stuff in your area. If a 25 year old Corolla is acceptable, why wouldn't a lightly-used 3-year old bike be?
And then there's this:
Operating cost of a bicycle is essentially free, plus some tires, brake elements, and chain oil. And you can subtract the gym membership you don't need for getting your cardio in.
Operating cost of your Corolla that you keep going on about is much higher. The next set of tires + brake job alone would more than pay for a decent commuter bike, never mind the fuel, battery, oil changes, brake fluid / power steering / coolant flush / transmission oil if you're actually maintaining the thing.
You know that engine oil needs to be changed either by time OR mileage, right? Especially if you don't ever get the engine warm when you run it - it won't get the oil hot enough to evaporate the water vapor it has accumulated (engine crank cases aren't perfectly sealed or else they become bombs from pressure blow-by), and if the engine never warms up then it never leans out the fuel mixture from running cold so you'll accumulate "sludging" from additional carbon deposits.
You've probably got some very nice sludge on your oil sump, and accumulating on your valves if you haven't changed it in 3 years. I would suggest not ever driving that car over 40 MPH ever again without at least draining the engine, dropping the pan and cleaning it out as well as the sump intake.
I guess it's a good ting that Ford, Renault, Honda, GM, VW, FCA, and Toyota all opened their doors for business one day, and the next day they were manufacturing 5M+ vehicles per year.
Why is the expectation for Tesla that they should be able to instantly manufacture millions of units, when they haven't had anywhere close to the time or capital spent that any of those guys have had? Also, why would they be making and selling as many units as GM or Toyota when they don't have a full range of vehicles. Jaguar Land Rover only plays in ta few ares of the market and only shipped around 600,000 last year, and they seem to be quite comfortable.
Just the same as Apple didn't need to be HP to be successful 15 years ago, Tesla doesn't need to be Toyota to be successful.
Well damn, I guess we should scrap the whole idea of EVs then because you can't charge one.
You know there's literally hundreds of millions of people that have driveways and garages that can, right? If it's not a good solution for you, don't buy one. Gasoline will still be a thing for some time.
Not coming down on either side of this one, but if it quacks like a duck...
Remember the late 90s, with that whole impeachment thing over a blow job? Yeah, that started as an investigation into shady real estate deals, and was being called a politically motivated 'witch hunt' too. Turns out, it was a politically motivated witch hunt. But political witch hunts are as old as the Republic itself, going back to John Quincy Adams.
Sometimes investigations turn things up that justify continued investigation, and sometimes the investigation continues to exist for the political value of having an ongoing investigation.
Are you saying that the USPTO is infallible, or advocating the idea that no patent should be review-able after being granted? Are you saying that the patent examiners at the USPTO are experts in every field and technology, and have a breadth of knowledge that transcends the rest of humanity?
Why the fuck would they work at the patent office if they do?
Your comment seems even less thought out than what you're implying of the other guy.
Well, considering that HDMI specs only apply to HDMI connections, and Nvidia also has DisplayPort on their cards, I suppose they'll support both FreeSync and G-Sync, with G-Sync still being used over DisplayPort if the display supports it just like today.
Speed of a Tomahawk cruise missile carrying a W80 warhead: 550 mph (subsonic) Speed of a Minuteman III reentry vehicle carrying a W78 in terminal phase: 17,000 mph
Range of a Tomahawk cruise missile: 810 miles for the block-III Range of a Minuteman III ICBM: 8100 miles
Number of warheads on a Tomahawk cruise missile: 1 Number of warheads on a Minuteman III ICBM: up to 3 (could have decoy package in place of a warhead)
And this is comparing an ICBM from the early 70s. The numbers are even more compelling for a Trident SLBM. (Speed: 18,000 mph in terminal phase, Range: 7500 miles, Number of Warheads: 8 - 12). There's a reason the Pentagon would like to have a "conventional Trident" at their disposal - far more capability than cruise missiles, with the stealth of a submarine and striking within minutes at multiple targets with a weapon that there is no defense against. Only downside: there's no way to know what that particular Trident has on the pointy bit, so Russia might be a little on-edge to see these things rising out of the ocean.
How is a cruise missile more effective than a ballistic missile again? They're cheaper, I guess?
Empty space? Are you talking about the palm rest, where you can't actually put anything because you'd constantly be hitting it as you type? Or are you advocating for wildly inconsistent keyboard layouts with super odd key spacing or many keys that require special drivers and become a compatibility nightmare, to say nothing of the cost of manufacturing snowflake components?
Maybe moving the keyboard down the palm rest, displacing the trackpad and making carpal tunnel even more likely due to the wrist angle required to use it?
As it turns out, people that design laptops actually think about these things.
You know you can have more than one window open at a time, right? Put your code editor on the left, and the browser you ultimately use to look things up on StackExchange on the right.
Hey, look - both are useable because you have a widescreen! How about that?!
Slashdot Mirror
Found the person who doesn't understand the difference between operational expense and capital expense.
Hint: Capital expenditure is a one-time thing. They don't have to build new factories for every car they make.
They still don't support Unicode, how the hell are they going to manage to write code to stop troll behavior when Twitter and Facebook can't even shitcan the fake news bots?
Because it's not software and a car built in California cannot be instantly delivered to a customer in New Jersey.
Extrapolate as necessary for distances and volumes.
