That's how I see it. AMD beats out nvidia, great. Does so with twice the power, not great. Sorry AMD but until you can beat nvidia in both performance and power usage, I'm staying with green team

I really don't know how to feel about this. They gotta be dipshit retarded to think they have any competition with these corporations that they conspire with to ensure that they monopolize areas. I feel bad for the suits at the helm of the public ever gets a hold of them

im waiting to see how the 960 looks performance wise as well. currently have a 760...so a 960 gonna have to look pretty promising or i will be snagging a second 760 for SLI

i am excited to see the day i can say fuck off windows and run linux. few things need to line up. game developer support, driver support (getting there), some software developer support (adobe, talking to you. your holding us back here a**holes).

this guy, lots of tutorials across a variety of languages. check him out.

should be minimum 10/5, and all upload should be half of the download. tired of these really messed up asymetric connections where the download is decent but upload is next to nothing.

depending on your goal, depends on the platform. if you wanna work with DirectX, then get windows and learn C# or C++ (the windows version, not the same as linux). if you wanna learn how to work with openGL then you can learn java or C++, maybe C#. as one of the early commentors said, many will start down the road of programming but few stay on it. find a good book to get started with. java is pretty easy to conceptually understand and can be ran on several platforms relatively easily. C++...yeah that has some differences between Linux, Mac, and Windows. not sure exact difference but C++ written on linux usually wont compile on Windows and vice versa. have fun getting started. personally i enjoy it a lot

HyperVisor with following VMs
Windows Server 2009 R2 for Space Engineers Ubuntu Web Server Ubuntu Database Server Debian Xen Orchestra for managing Xen Server Ubuntu Minecraft Server Host pfSense virtual router for NATing the VMs from the single connection that the college i attend has allowed me to use it works well for me. granted it isnt in my "house" per se but i live on campus year round so close enough. web server runs my owncloud and plex. space engineers is driving me nuts with not being accessible for whatever reason.

so the government is getting into the targeted ad selling business now eh. collect all the data in the world. figure out what devices are connected where and target ads at them constantly. seems like a great way to possibly pull our pathetic government out of the RED

If you are afraid of command line DO NOT use ubuntu server. That said, ram usage is lower when using only command line. GUI takes up resources. Anyway, I personally run a virtualizer and have one pfsense vm, one 08R2 vm and ten the other four vms are ubuntu server or Debian. I think one is Debian but oh well. I am pretty comfortable with command line though at this point. My laptop runs linux mint and I find that very nice as well. Cinnamon isn't terrible on resources. I mean my laptop only has 2GB of ram and with Firefox running ten or fifteen tabs I use <1GB that said plex can use up some ram but I find is also very CPU intensive. My vms run virtual router, xen web manager, web server, plex, databases, space engineers is on windows, minecraft although those may be getting shutdown with Microsoft looking to buy mojang. 4GB of ram may cut it close with plex. My plex vm has 4GB and was stuttering a bit today while my daughter watched a movie.

alright so my biggest project is actually one i still work on. the uni i am attending needed new software for the mailroom to manage and track packages on campus. so far their database of info has roughly 25 thousand packages and the system is only 15 months old. not UPS or FedEx scale here but to me that is a good amount of data to be handling. currently i am working on rewriting some aspects of the software that were either poorly written or not generic enough to allow future expansion easily. its written in java which isnt my favorite language but it allows me to quickly develop and deploy on multiple platforms easily.

an hour? could shut it down for five minutes and people would be calling the cops. look what happened when facebook went down. people actually called the cops about it

Following his series is not a bad idea. C# to java, very very similar. There are comparisons between the two languages. Each has it's pros and cons. I'm in uni and they teach java. But I preferred C# before starting here. Not saying it's changed just now I don't care what language it is. I just wanna write code

#include<stdio.h>main(){ int a; printf("Enter a integer less than 10: "); scanf("%d", &a); if(a < 10) { printf("Integer is less than 10\n"); } else { printf("Integer is more than or equal to 10\n"); }} this is how i would format that code. a brace is its own line. and all code within a brace is indented.

the first step was netflix paying anyone at all. sure their customers are suffering from streams constantly buffering but quite frankly they should be telling them to call up their ISPs and ask why a 10Mbps connection cant stream an HD video whos rate is less than 25% of that amount. we as consumers should be seriously asking our ISPs why they oversell by such vast margins. sure not everyone everywhere will always use their bandwidth 100% but they have oversold by such a large amount than if anyone dares to use their connection fully it will inadvertently effect everyone connected to that hub. not to mention many of them are implementing data caps because heaven forbid you actually use the connection for anything more than a dozen emails and two orders on amazon. it might actually do something to their network they didnt expect to happen.
 
[end rant here]

isnt that the truth! lots of eyecandy but not enough time in the game to appreciate it all

My day has been made.

you make an interesting argument with that. since they would still use amd drivers both cards could coexist harmoniously. and wouldnt be quite as expensive

i would do java. mainly focus on that. its a popular language, and if someone doesnt fully understand it from your tutorial there are loads of examples on line that can easily be found with a simple search. i would even be willing to help you make some of these tutorials too.

I vote for just reclassify them and be done. But big communication companies are paying his ass off and I bet his precious little girl needs some great procedure he can't afford on government salary alone so he needs that extra cash to afford it. Alright that was a little low but fuck him and his rules that will just set him up for more failure. Can we kick him out of chair? Is that allowed?

CISPA is back but under a different name. Drop the P and you got the new name. Pretty much same rules. Apparently they think the third time is the charm.

The drafters are fully supportive of what the NSA does as well. So once again let's just stand up and knock this one out as well.

No! No! No!

same here. kinda makes me wonder if NSA didn't have something to do with this. yeah its OpenSSL but seriously? this is a really old bug.
