    Agent181 reacted to P4LL3R in Vortex Pok3r or Ducky mini   
    To be honest, I didn't get to that yet. I'm happy to find the keys I need at the moment  
    But I will try it today.
     
    Update: I have sucessfully programmed two macro-keys
    Even though the layout can be quite a pain in the ass in the beginning, I start loving it more and more.
    I followed this guide (starting at ~4:10):

    My pok3r will arrive tomorrow, so maybe I can help you with your decision then. And by the way, the pok3r has an aluminium case too.

    But the Pok3r will be a double-challenge for me.
     
    I live in Austria where we use the DE-ISO Layout, but I ordered it in Ansi-Layout. The reason for this is, that I want to be able to get some custom keycaps and there are no or only few keycaps in DE-ISO available.
     
    The next challenge is the layout. The smallest keyboard layout I use at the moment is a Tenkeyless.

    So, today i got my Pok3r. The first thing I noticed: The build quality is amazing! The aluminium case definitly adds a lot of stiffness and quality. 
    But it will definitly take some days until I'm getting used to the layout (both, Ansi and 60%). 
     
    Here is a size comparison between the Pok3r, a TKL and a full-size keyboard:

     
    Close-up of the Pok3r:

     
    And the Pok3r on my desk:

     
    After flashing the firmware-update there were also media-keys, so there is nothing missing anymore. But I do advice you to turn on Dip-Switch #3, which turn the Caps-Lock Key into an additional Fn-Key as nobody really need the Caps-Lock anyway and it is way more intuitive to use it than the designated Fn-Key (in my opinion).
     
    I hope I could help you at least a bit

    The fact that the booster had much more energy than previous launches makes this even more amazing. Way to go SpaceX.

    "Bright lights! Did it land?"
    "No wait, it's too bright for too long, it must have exploded!"

    Agent181 reacted to Master Disaster in Jim Sterling shows just how broken YTs content ID system is and comes up with "Copyright Deadlock"   
    Game critic Jim Sterling has officially broken YouTubes copyright systems (specifically its Content ID system) by developing a system which forces claimants into a deadlock meaning none of the claimants can monetize a video and quite frankly its fucking brilliant.
     
    So first a break down of what ContentID is.
     
    Jim's brilliance is he noticed that different claimants wanted different outcomes to strikes, some try to monetize for themselves while others try to block monetization and Jim decided that this could he used against them. 2 examples are Nintendo who always try to monetize & Rockstar Games who always try to prevent monetization so while making a video about Nintendo Jim decided to throw in some GTA V footage with the intention of creating a copyright deadlock between them, if they both claim then neither can get anything.
     
    The genius bit here is it actually works, Jim has been able to avoid monetization on several videos using this technique, its only drawback is you cannot monetize it yourself if you employ this method, but if you never planned to monetize your video then go ahead.

    For completion sake here is the Star Fox Video
     
    Hahaha, that's fucking brilliant!!!! Not only does it get around ContentID but it highlights how utterly flawed the entire system is. I'm pretty sure the big companies will press Google into getting the system fixed so it works more in their favour but for now, use as much copyrighted stuff as you like, as long as you use more than one owners work none of them can do anything about it

    Agent181 reacted to GoodBytes in AMD officially classifies Polaris 10 as mainstream desktop GPU and high-end notebook GPU   
    If they have nothing else in the pipeline, and it is all true, than AMD is doing the same mistake they have done with the AMD Athlon 64 AM2 Socket, where they decided to no longer be the competitor of Intel high-end chips (they were with Socket 939 Athlon 64 X2 chips).
     
    But I think they will have a high-end chip soon after... maybe they are waiting for HBM2 to be more affordable. Heck, Nvidia's Pascal won't have HBM2... maybe the Titan that will be released later on, and that would be probably be sold at 1000$.

    Agent181 reacted to RicHaj in Brazil's Internet Regulations President says Online gaming ''wastes too much internet"   
    Hey there everyone! 
    Right out of the gate, to give y'all context, this is coming as a follow up to another thread i did in another sub forum: 
     
    Here is the Link to the news: 
    http://jogos.uol.com.br/ultimas-noticias/2016/04/19/gente-que-joga-online-gasta-muita-internet-critica-presidente-da-anatel.htm?cmpid=tw-uol
     
    Here is my full translation of the news ( Im a portuguese Native speaker, i'll translate the text the best way possible to keep it to it's original context and give it a proper interpretation into english )
     
    "The President of the National Telecomunications agency ( ANATEL ), Joao Rezende, spoke in a press conference regarding the potential extra charges for Wired broadband connections and criticize the users that play Online Games. "Some people love it, they play all the time and this wastes a large band volume" (Note from me: He actually meant ''Large Band Volume" ) Rezende said, affirming that these users harm those that use the less internet. ( note from me: It is actually phrased as ''use less Internet'' not ''Use the internet less" )
    "It is evident that there must be some form of balance, if not, we will have the consumer that consumes less paying for those that are consuming more. It's this matter of Marketing, of the unlimited and the infinite which is a business practice that lead the user to be unaccostumed with it" Declared the president of Anatel.
    ( Context : What he means is that in his words and view, by Having the standard being Unlimited Internet Data caps for many years, users don't regulate themselves and use it too much ( with stuff like gaming ) thus overloading the pipelines which harm the casual and light-use users )
    ANATEL's POSITION:
    Anatel has positioned itsel in favor of the decision of some of the Major telecomunnication operators to adopt a Data Cap system for Broadband wired internet connection. In these systems, the user that exceeds the Pre-determined values would have to pay extra or have it's internet speed reduced or even cut off entirely. For the Agency, this business model does not go against regulamentations.
    Even though it agrees with the operators, Anatel has forbidden the cutting of Internet Services and the Reduction of internet speeds and the Adittional charges for the next 90 Days. The Agency demands that all Operators (service Providers)  must be able to clearly communicate to their users regarding their data package, how much it was used and how, before imposing any restrictions."
     
    So, i'm not deeply versed into the Tech side of Networking, but this reads like a huge pile of BS to me... and this is the ''Top Dog'' regarding internet regulation in Brazil... so you can imagine how things are around here.

    i7 is slightly faster but is 35w tp vs 19w so probably a little less batery life and more heat.
