    Whats going on with the referral link to the SD7000? I get an Access Denied error...

    I'm still happy with my Surface Pro 3, but I were looking for a laptop I'd buy this (provided the Linux support is good enough). I don't get why this superior 3:2 aspect ratio is not more popular for productivity devices.

    Fair enough it would be useful to replace them, yes. But I reckon in the vast majority of such devices you cannot replace anything (jaybirds I don't think are very repairable). It would be nice if they were, but especially from Apple, it can't always be expected.

    What is the score for other headphones? Surely most of them are not at all user service able? For a device that small I don't really see how they could make it user serviceable without making it quite a bit more bulky. I don't like Apple but this sounds a lot like hating for the sake of it. (Of course I don't agree with non serviceability on other devices like the SSD in the new macbooks)

    Apparently AMD gpus are nearly always more powerful than the Nvidia cards, my gpu computing lecturer tells me. But Nvidia has the market share cuz Cuda and code is easy to write for that and a lot of code already exists

    Can't say I much mind most of those big youtubers getting less views. Most of them are absolutely horrible, producing poor quality content with clickbait titles and thumbnails. The less views they get the better.

    I do very strongly agree that Windows should warn against possible incompatibilities before upgrading and defer an upgrade if something is detected. My windows 10 install keeps trying to upgrade but crashes because of an asus driver which I need. It's really pissing me off

    Yes that is what I said. I used to have 2 AP's with the same SSID and authentication. However it does work fairly seamlessly and I didn't notice it that much. Thats because when I got out of range AP1 I just got connected to AP2. Not seamless, but the downtime wasn't noticeable in any normal usage (webbrowsing and such). Maybe for realtime applications it won't be ideal, but again, I don't know what kind of deployment situation you have there. I also believe that the current Wave 1 Unifi AP AC units don't support "zero handoff". But with my 3 currently deployed Unifi AP's I've never experienced any problems between the handoffs from one AP to another.

    I'm pretty sure that you need a special AP to allow external controllers to work with them. Stuff like Ubiquitis Unifi platform or Edimax Pro AP's. Most manufacturers offer something along those lines. What kind of setup is this gonna be? Home? Small office? I also think that if you setup AP's with the same SSID and wifi authentication clients can auto switch between the 2 AP's, although it won't be seamless (cuz no controller to handle the transition)

    THIS is exactly why I've always defended piracy and will always do so.

    Can confirm, Twitter is completely down. I also can't reach GitHub it seems

    I wonder though, if they would spend that extra upfront cost the set up the Windows computers better (more locking down, idk what they do that requires so much help desk use) how would they then compare? What is that 40% of people actually needing from the Tech support? That is my question here.

    I'm really curious on the price point. And if the dock adds any sort of processing power. If it doesn't, then its just a Nvidia Shield of sorts. If the dock adds decent power, then maybe it could actually be interesting.
  14. Sidiox
    Well that seems fucky . Wouldn't be particularly surprising though. Got any sources on that?

    You say I should disable the page file fully? Because I don't currently have it disabled as I said
  16. Sidiox
    Why the hell would I want to do that? I have 24GB cuz I want to use it. Its something in Windows that kills the program when Windows thinks its low on memory when its far from it. Well of course my OS, motherboard and cpu support it. I have a slight overclock, but only of about 30MHZ, so that shouldn't harm things. Considering I can get up to 20GB of usage without any hard problems I doubt its a hardware issue. That would usually result in more random programs crashing or blue screens.
  17. Sidiox
    I'm very sure. see in task manager that I have 32.2GB memory total, which is the physical memory plus the page file. Only 125MB's are reserved for hardware. Oh and currently 3.6GB of ram is cached, with 25.6GB commited.

    So I run a machine with an i7 4790 and 24GB of ram. Sometimes when I hit around 18 to 20GB ram usage, windows informs me that I'm low on memory and that I should close one or two programs. However instead of really asking it, it already kills them. Which is really annoying in the case of games. I do not know why this is happening. I have a paging file size set from about 8GB to a max of 16GB on my SSD. I do not wish to allocate more memory to it since that would just be ridiculous. I can't find any proper solution to this problem on the internet and I can't come up with anything on my own, any of you got any ideas? Or I may just end up adding another stick of ram

    The Blade 14 seems like an amazing portable gaming machine, for some light gaming. And a useful programming machine for at my university

    Dunno if you guys read the hackers twitter but they seem to be quite nice about it. Linking how it works and how to fix it. Also saying you should always check software you're installing. Not all that bad, unless the software is installing more malware than just a simple mbr kill

    I'm really impressed with the form factor of that machine. Most projectors I've seen wouldn't fit nicely in a backpack but LG made it into a really nice and small package

    As you have built a pc with your son, you should build one with him! Also, a really nice video, very well put together.

    700 series even? wow..... 600 is still a bit early, but 700 series is wayyyy too earlier to get legacy treatment

    Considering that Nintendo has been kinda reluctant to innovate in any meaningful way I'm not sure what to expect.

    I'll wait to applaud this till I see what the effect is on Linux
