    SolarpandaS got a reaction from Polylactic in Type of mouse pad   
    From my experience: You won't notice any difference in mouse movement, but fabric pads feel much nicer and give you a little more control.

    I have a steam link with my gaming pc. I use wi-fi and it works great! (Noted weird problem that if the microwave is used, the pc loses connection with the link,

    You can use 5Ghz Wifi. But I recommend you use a powerline adapter.

    It would allow you to use ethernet. All you do is plug one in to an outlet near your router and the other near the steam link. Then just plug in ethernet cables into the adapters and the router and steam link

    Not a csgo player, but I do have an extended mousepad. There is zero issues with having the keyboard kinda sitting there while gaming.

    Thats not a problem. They won't be on the drive after a format. If your paranoid, wipe the drive with something like dd or hdtune on windows. CCleaner won't help at all.

    SolarpandaS reacted to Delicieuxz in Microsoft makes DirectX 12 shader compiler open-source   
    New DirectX Shader Compiler based on Clang/LLVM now available as Open Source
     
     
    Is making the compiler open source the same thing as making DX12 open-source? That's my presumption, here.
     
    Anyway, I figure that motivations for Microsoft to do this might include:
    a) Vulkan looking attractive to developers due to its open-source nature, as well as being cross-platform, and Microsoft feels they have to do more to incentivise developers to use DX12 instead of Vulkan
    b) DX12 games are not establishing a great track record for performance improvement, so far, with games usually losing performance in DX12 mode. And so, maybe Microsoft hopes that by making DX12 open-source, that people will start finding ways to improve DX12 implementation and effectiveness in games, and thereby increase the attractiveness of the DX12 brand, or at least prevent its luster from fading too much below its marketing hype
     
    I think that one interesting outcome of this might be that DirectX 12 support gets non-officially added to Windows 7, and Windows 8.

    If they have indeed made it open source, then that's very uncharacteristic of Microsoft.

    How do you know? If you formatted it, its basically impossible.
     
    There will just be different directories you can use. Speeds will be the same as the individual drives.

    If you are not planning to use it for more than few month, charge it to 50% and put it in the closet.
     
    If you are using it regulary, just make sure that every few months you let it go down to 0% and recharge back to 100% to calibrate it.
