  1. The trade standards != penny-pincher standards on Home Improvement Chains Accused of False Advertising Over Lumber Dimensions (consumerist.com) · · Score: 0

    Look, fuckers. I already knew that your dimensions were 1/4" off - that's how the fucking SAFETY RATED HURRICANE JOIST CLIPS are designed and rated.

    When I buy a bunch of joist clips that say they're for 4" lumber, I don't expect the fucking pilot hole to be off 1/4" and not touching the fucking wood because you downsized your fucking lumber dimensions to be 1/2" off what is claimed (thus being over 10% wrong in your fucking dimensions, and thus 10%+ wrong in your rated weight capacity, etc.)

    Sue the fuck out of Home Depot, Lowes, and the other companies doing this shady shit.

  2. Re:New 12-32 core cpu's interest me this way... ap on AMD Looks To 'Crush' Intel's Xeon With New Epyc Server Chips (extremetech.com) · · Score: 1

    APK doesn't even know that AMD has always had better 'process scheduler thrashing handling' so you already know his "AV Solution" is utter shit in the face of today's OSes and threats.

  3. Re:180 watts per - think of the cooling needed on AMD Looks To 'Crush' Intel's Xeon With New Epyc Server Chips (extremetech.com) · · Score: 1

    "Can simple air flow cooling keep the data center from burning up?"

    I can cool 300w of LED on a LGA775 heatsink and keep it at 70C.

    So maybe you might want to think about the cooling solution instead of the processor itself, n00b.

  4. Chivalry (gallantry) is stepping in to stop the one inappropriately touching the other when it is not wanted, regardless of gender and sexual orientation and other factors.

    Chivalry isn't dead, you assholes have just failed to evolve to be able to uphold the proper meaning of the word for this century.

  5. She said VERY PROFESSIONALLY unlike other dumb bitches we've caught making false accusations with some ramshackle story, and the investors themselves had an investigation and fired more than a dozen people over the findings.

    Yea, come back when you've got a lick of common fucking sense.

  6. "It was an easy target. Let's see her try that with a real company with real money"

    They've been PISSING 50 bucks plus every second 24/7/365 for the past year or so. If that's not real money, you must be the richest fuckwit on the planet.

  7. "instead of complaining about the lack their of?"

    Because most intelligent people that know it's "thereof" have probably left this site.

  8. "It only took them 30 minutes to post."

    Blame the Firehose and the voting system.

    Used to be actual technology-involved nerds ran the site.

    Now it's investor-firms masquerading as tech geeks.

  9. http://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/06...

    Do what? You just fire a bunch of people when you investigate them without proof?

    Uber had the ability to track just about anyone using their service, including their own employees (which prolly got free rides on Uber's wallet.) They could correlate times of claims with location data of both victim and accused in the cases of stalking, after-delivery following, etc.

    You might want to open your ears a bit more and use some common sense, assuming you have any.

  10. She was hired by another company like a week or so after she left, dumbass. Do you bother paying attention to such important things like this or do you just cherry-pick a few statements and then refuse to do any critical thinking upon those statements before spouting off shit?

  11. Never heard of the Cult of Personality, eh?

    People in power tend to attract and keep the company of those like themselves.

  12. Toxic *blank* is just a side-effect of being a common asshole while having *specific trait.*

    Makes for a great mad-lib. Might even work out for a two-card question for Cards Against Humanity!

    Plenty of servers on Pricewatch.com

    I'm surprised someone of your UID doesn't know of the place. Newegg advertises there and gets beaten fairly regularly.

  14. "In actual fact, she has a duty to be loyal to her employer in this regard even after not working there anymore."

    When you show me no reasonable loyalty or respect, expect none in return.

    Her post was RESTRAINED, way more than I'd have been. That's about the level of 'loyalty' she owed as a PROFESSIONAL.

  15. "Core Marketplace" on Etsy Slashes Almost a Quarter Of Its Staff In Attempt To Refocus (engadget.com) · · Score: 2

    You mean all the bulk resellers you let in who fucked over the people that made you what you are today?

  16. "If it uses electricity, it will be online."

    Like my metal detector's going to get any sort of connectivity signal A. out in the middle of nowhere desert areas and B. inside a mine shaft.

  17. Define 'older' on 'Older Fathers Have Geekier Sons' (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Older as in older than the chick they're banging, or older as in both are roughly the same more advanced age?

  18. Re:that's not the way forward. on The Behind-the-Scenes Changes Found In MacOS High Sierra (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    No, Metal is about vendor lock-in. To boot, we already had a graphics API called MeTaL, made by S3, back when the first Unreal Tournament came out. It was shit then, and I'll wager on this new API being shit when Apple tries to put it out.

    Gotta be desperate to pull that kind of advertising measure.

    Get out while you still can.

    AKA basic electronics that any regular visitor to this board should know. In fact, it's one of the most basic pieces of electrical knowledge out there. Anyone asking that question on this board likely does not belong here.

    "they have a terrible reputation in the maker community"

    Well, duh. Anyone with a basic idea of electronics knows this is too much shit for a simple task.

    So where in your thought process dd you fail to think "Intel is probably one of the kings of COTS equipment"?

    Cuz I got news for you, the 386 while discontinued is still a hot-shit selling item for embedded shit.

  24. Guess you missed the 'critical thinking' value add from school, you lazy inattentive fuck.
