  1. If you want One Piece roughly same-day then do animefreak.tv

  2. The list of worthwhile licensed stuff is still very slim, and it's old to boot. And I bet that list will remain slim once helicopter mommy catches her kid suddenly watching Vampire Hunter D fully uncensored and complains.

  3. Most Funimation stuff can be found on animefreak.tv, usually with better subs.

  4. Most of it is moe, slice of life, and fanservice garbage.

    Stick with Crunchyroll or just go watch the shit for free on animefreak.tv as the Amazon list is a valueless waste of time.

  5. Re:Govt wants free money on Amazon Just Got Slapped With a $1 Million Fine For Misleading Pricing (recode.net) · · Score: 2

    "The US is the only western country I'm aware of in which there's not a law against advertising an item as on sale when it's never actually been sold at a higher price."

    That's called deceptive pricing and we most certainly do have laws and court cases dealing with exactly this in the USA, courtesy of the FTC.

    English must not be your first language.

    Microsoft has employees that can effectively spy on you for no reason at any time if you're using any of their services.

    Much like how Google does it. The reason you can't reach a human is because the humans are too busy spying on you and stealing your data.

  7. Re:AMD has on AMD Set To Launch Ryzen Before March 3rd (anandtech.com) · · Score: 2

    AMD processors have supported ECC for a long time (starting back in the AM2 days.) It's on the motherboard maker to support it, not AMD.

  8. Because my experience gives me the fucking privilege and the majority of you are insufferable faggots, so it all works out.

  9. Re: Decent cross platform video chat? on Google Abandons Their Google Hangouts API (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Oh, and to boot, you don't HAVE to pay. If you're doing family stuff where it's two families, each in their own room, the free single-user view side works just fine. Even under Linux + Wine.

    Camfrog USED to be good. Used to be you could buy a lifetime pro code.

    But as far as multi-user video chat goes, nothing beats Camfrog. It's so good PalTalk bought the rights to use their software.

  11. They didn't read anywhere that Vector went bankrupt, you nitwit.

    "It could just as easily been written something like this

    Much like you didn't read their words.

  12. Road repairs do not require actual skill unless you're on a bridge, and even then, potholes are simply filled with a fucking asphalt patch unless it's caused by a water line leaking, in which case, it's not a ROAD CREW, but a water maintenance crew doing the work.

    But morons like you that have never worked in concrete wouldn't have a fucking clue.

  13. "I assure you, I have lived in Cali for several continuous years, and I have the Soup Plantation receipts to prove it."

    Souplantation is an Irvine-area chain restaurant. Now go out into the Inland Empire, away from the beach areas, and tell me the same thing about the roads once you pass the I-10/91/215 junction.

    Several years seems to pale in comparison to my decade+ of life here, and I've driven it all, from San Bernardino down to Imperial county, and everything west.

    As long as you're not running Linux, Camfrog Video Chat or Skype works just fine and at least neither of those are going away any time soon unlike Hangouts.

  15. The roads are maintained by prison labor in California.

    I doubt NH has any sort of sizable prison population to make such an endeavor possible.

  16. "expansive and well maintained roads"

    Non-Californian detected!

  17. Good Riddance on Google Abandons Their Google Hangouts API (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Hangouts should've been renamed to Hangups. Connection issues were so rampant, and was one of the primary reasons Google Helpouts failed so badly.

    Assholes like this usually have all kinds of dirty little secrets that they don't want out. Find it and expose it.

    Which is worth $2,355 per 0.2 grams.

    Wake me up when Bitcoin gets even close to that value. Meanwhile, I'll sit on my 500 carats of Lightning Ridge.

  21. " The GPU in question here would probably be okay to game with at 1080P but no way will it handle the native 4k resolution of this unit."

    This will run 4K Quake 3 smoother than glass (as I'm doing that right now on my shitty GeForce 650Ti.) It's as if you forgot about older games and nothing exists any more except Battlefield or Call of Duty or the ever-unoptimized Crysis.

  22. My shitty old Centrino-based Toshiba laptop had better speaker response range - 40Hz to 22,050Hz.

    Guess Dell's using some shitty Beats by Dre knockoff audio system.

    If the computer dies, the monitor is still just fine and dandy, and can quite often be swapped into another bezel (or be ballsy and build a custom PC case with the monitor as a side-panel. Kits exist for this exact thing and they're like $30.)

  24. Re:Good Video Analysis of the data so far-vGPU. on AMD Unveils Vega GPU Architecture With 512 Terabytes of Memory Address Space (hothardware.com) · · Score: 1

    Well, don't bother looking at any Microsoft Benchmarks. They killed RemoteFX performance by half in Server 2012. I still run my stuff on 2008R2 for this reason.

  25. What's the point? By the time we hit that amount of memory on a GPU, we're looking at this architecture being entirely obsolete.

    Should've just said "We're slapping 1TB on this bitch!" and been done with it. No point in fussing about the scalability of the architecture when we're likely never going to see it hit full potential until long after its deprecated (AGP slot, anyone? When PCI-E cards came out, we'd barely even thought of saturating a 4X AGP slot.)
