    Solution to homeless - SF tech execs fund measure to ban them

    Hopefully one of them stabs you dead in the street for your wallet so they get a few hot meals and maybe a shower and we get a world with one less person like you. Please find a way to express yourself that does not call for the death of other members. admin allisolm

    How to make face less red (boozing related)

    Alcohol has a vasodilatory effect. Try using a CNS stimulant the next time you drink (I myself prefer dextroamphetamine or cathinone, ymmv); the vasoconstrictive effects will counteract this. You'll also have a lot more fun. :P I would recommend against combining cocaine and ethanol, however...

    What kind of cable do you use to connect your video card to your monitor?

    DVI. Bought a cheapo 1080p panel (no HDMI or display port connectors) to tide me over until 4K displays were mature several years ago.

    The liberals $43 billion train to no where...

    Still doesn't hold a candle to the conservative's 2 trillion dollar war to destabilize the middle east. As others have said, at least we get some infrastructure out of this, as opposed to hundreds of thousands of dead bodies. The US rail infastructure is embarrassingly obsolete as well...

    Trump's cultural intolerance in a nutshell

    I was going to vote for Sanders because I thought that even though I think a lot of his politics are crap he at least honestly believed what he was saying and I agreed with the thrust of his direction. I don't get that impression from either current candidates. Both really came off as...

    So this is why gun(s) is/are bad? One woman vs. three male intruders..Video of the melee inside

    TBH the way I feel about this is that even if guns don't make me safer I would still want one around depending on where I'm living. Even if it makes me statistically unsafer. Where I live now I don't even worry about leaving hundreds of dollars worth of stuff in my car and freaking out if I...

    Stop saying Islam is a religion of peace: Taslima Nasreen

    WORSHIP ME OR I'LL SEND YOU TO A TERRIBLE PLACE WHERE YOU'LL BE TORTURED FOREVER. <- When humans say stuff like this we generally (or used to at least) put them in the funny farm. What a nice god. Makes you think Lucifer might have been in the right, but history is written by the victors.

    How old do you suppose this planet really is?

    I think your problem is assuming there's steady population growth over time; that's a very recent phenomenon. If you read just a high level overview of world history you'll notice that there are massive human die offs in the past for various reasons that have only been overcome through improved...

    How old do you suppose this planet really is?

    Until you factor in war, disease, famine, drought, rapid local ecological change, lack of industrialization to actually utilize those resources etc. all that fun stuff.

    How is Zen performance looking?

    IPC looks competitive with broadwell at least. So whether or not Zen is a competitive design will really come down to price, clocks and power usage in that order (all unknown at this point).

    California Just Passed A $1 Billion Tax On The Whole Country That No One Noticed

    Good. I can't believe seasonal workers were exempted from OT in the first place. I've done AG work (picking melons in my early 20s; they have to be harvested fast so farmers are actually willing to pay decent wages) and anybody that can physically do more than 40 hours a week is a beast. Hard...

    If Saddam was still in power, would things be more stable in the Middle East/less terrorism?

    Definitely. Iraq would probably still be quasi-secular as well.

    Apple ordered to pay $15 billion USD for tax evasion

    I think this is a win morally, and they should be fined if they violated the letter of the law wrt EU economic agreements. Punishing anybody, even huge corporations, for violating the spirit of the law is a really bad precedent, however. If the laws have loopholes, close them; don't selectively...

    Favorite brand of cigarettes

    American Spirit organic ryo before I started using a vape. Inorganic phosphate fertilizers have radioactive contaminants that the tobacco plant will pick up. These compounds then get stuck in tar where your lungs branch and are probably responsible for a lot of the lung cancers seen with tobacco...

    American hunter kills black bear with spear

    Baiting an animal like that is just pathetic unless you legitimately need it for food/clothes or something. This guy obviously doesn't. I really don't like sport hunting and just view it as senseless violence, though. If a hunter is thinning out say a deer herd to keep it healthy that's...

    Blame it on the FDA.....

    I'll just get it off the black market like I do all my other drugs. No skin off my nose. I'm sure all my weed dealers will have e-juice the week after this goes into effect. You can easily fit 3000 dosages of nicotine HCL into an letter sized envelope and have it look like a regular piece of mail.

    Should you be compensated for the GTX 970 issues and spec changes?

    Another problem with this setup is that most games are engineered to fit their textures/shaders/etc. in a given size framebuffer depending on the settings (2GB for mid quality textures, 4GB for high quality textures, etc). When the game engine sees that that the card is reporting 4GB...

    Should you be compensated for the GTX 970 issues and spec changes?

    Yes, I should be compensated. The card does have 4GB of physical RAM, but the advertised specs don't say anything about how the last 512MB is crippled. That's kind of a shady way to do business, but it's probably not outright fraud. The main issue, IMO, was advertising it as having more L2$ and...

    AMD Ryzen (Summit Ridge) Benchmarks Thread (use new thread)

    I really hope that's an early chip sample that isn't hitting its clock targets or has some faster paths disabled in the microcode or something, because if it's representative of the retail product, it's terrible.

    The Anti-Crysis: Is DOOM the best optimized PC game ever?

    It's not loading the whole map that was the issue (that'll increase your memory usage and video memory usage but that's not an issue as long as you're not swapping to a block device or across the pci-e bus, respectively); I think the main issue was that it didn't have very advanced occlusion...

    New forum software? I'm feeling anxious, nervous, fretting

    AnandTech Forums - XenForo Feedback

    This is way better than that old vBulletin junk. Y'all did a good job on the transition. Why the circular avatars, though? Screens are square and rectangular so it makes much more sense to have square avatars IMO. The throbbing green logged in indicator is very annoying and visually distracting...

    Are these my only choices? 1) learn Spanish 2) get a degree 3) move to where Spanish is less common?

    Honestly If I were in your position I'd think hard about the military. You'd get a much better paying job than the temp ones you've been doing and they'll actually help you get housing. Depending on what you do in the military you could even pick up some skills you could use to make money as a...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 470 or RX 460?

    I was thinking about buying a half dozen (to start with) 470s or 480s to mine scrypt cryptocurrencies with, but I'm still reading and learning about them. I would want to at least be able to break even on my hardware costs within 6 months to a year; I would probably give the cards to...

    The Illusion of Free Will (?)

    That is a very disturbing idea IMO; it reminds me of some difficult psychedelic trips I've had. If everything truly is predetermined, even the waveform collapses at the quantum level we think we're creating when we measure said states and the universe is simply a giant, incredibly complex...

    Jobs Report GREAT NEWS (unless you're a republican)

    I stand to make a nice chunk of change after the brexit vote.

    Zen delayed to 2017 (DigiTimes)

    Nooooo. I was really hoping they could launch a competitive product this year. I don't want to live in an Intel only x86 world. :( I still remember when there were half a dozen companies that produced x86 chips. Cyrix, IDT/Winchip, VIA, IBM, NEC and others.
