    Super helpful guide.  Now where is the guide to get my wife to look the other way while I drop the cash for my custom loop?

    The liquid inside a CLC evaporates after awhile. Especially when you have a high tdp cpu.

    Dingus reacted to Alex Atkin UK in Parents Don't Like Phones At Schools   
    Your flaw here is that we are talking about kids, who by their nature are impressionable and less likely to be able to stop themselves being distracted.

    My goodness, the teachers had enough trouble getting us to focus WITHOUT phones.

    Dingus reacted to Mira Yurizaki in [UPDATE: Vote Passed!] Holy Mole-y - Metric redefines 4 units of measurement   
    Amperes and mole are affected by the kilogram. An ampere is really defined from Newtons, which is derived from the kilogram. Mole is the amount of atoms in 12g of Carbon 12, so changing the kilogram affects that.
     
    Kelvin was based on the triple of point of water divided by a number. So they're changing that so the kelvin is based on Boltzmann's constant.

    Don't drill any new holes. Jayztwocents already did that so we could learn from him.

    Hmm, well where I work the place is filled with 50+ and so is my father, who also works in IT. In fact in senior technical positions and positions of higher authority those are dominated by 45+ aged persons.
     
    My father also happens to be an ex-electrician (still has limited registration), ex-licensed radio technician, ex-electronics repairer servicing all kind of things including the first giant near room sized HDDs and has been in the IT industry for over 25 years now, currently senior database administrator. Basically yea he and others of his age have an extremely good grasp of the internet, in fact more so than most.
     
    Some of the most clueless in regards to computers and internet in general that I have meet are between the ages of 15 to 35, but even then age itself as nothing to do with that.

    So long as your OS is recognizing it, you should be able to select a folder on that drive and install there.

    Dingus got a reaction from captain_to_fire in AI-assisted fake porn are being used by people on Reddit for self-completion   
    My concern is the impact this will have on the justice system, in which an attorney can say their client never said X, and there is reasonable cause for doubt.

    You kids these days.  Back in my day your computer was obsolete before you finished installing your games on it.  You've been spoiled by a plateau that dragged on from Sandy Bridge to Kaby Lake where all you had to do was upgrade your GPU every 2-3 years and it was all good.

    Dingus reacted to porina in Rumour: Intel Core 9000 series to get more threads   
    There's still a rumoured 8 core Coffee Lake in the pipeline isn't there? But the lack of core count growth was likely for reasons other than technical ones.
     
    It's a rumour. Don't know if, when, or how much. If you need something now, do what you can now.

    Sounds like it's booting off the installation media. When it reboots, take out the USB or CD which you used to install.

    Why not leave the Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom. Like this you just come in to the bath room, his the power button, and your phone should auto-connect to it, and you just hit the play button. If it is because you only have 1, you can get a cheap'ish one for the bathroom, I mean you don't care about sound quality per se.. the heavy echo from the bathroom ruins it all to start with.

    I have the Enthoo Evolv ATX Tempered Glass edition.  It's sexy as hell, good build quality, and easy enough to build in.  Another slightly cheaper option would be the NZXT S340 Elite:  A slightly more minimal approach, but still tempered glass, good looks, and solid build quality.
