I am sure Steve will reach out

I've said this in other comments, but I think Steve's video was absolutely personal.  Did he make fair points, yes!  Was it edited in a sensationalist way to make Linus look bad, also yes!  Was it necessary to cut to Luke's face in the WAN show highlights?  Seems like he is making it more personal than journalistic.  Also, am I the only one that noticed that Steve mis-quoted Linus' dollar amount invested in Framework?  Seems like a pretty big whoopsie in a video calling someone out for all of their errors...

I'm equally amused that so many here find a differing opinion equal to a lack of understanding - "you can't have watched the whole thing" or "go watch more than 5mins".
 
In summary of the GN Video:
LMG is rushing too much, creating mistakes - Weak opinion. ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking is far more detailed than either GN or LTT. Does that make AHO "better"? Debatable. LMG employees agree - Sure... snippets to try and prove a point. How many LMG employees would go work for Steve/GN? Employees may not think it's perfect, but clearly agree with the ethos, else wouldn't still be working for the company year after year This isn't Drama - No Steve, it really is. And he loves the drama, which is why he goes in for it again & again Bad data - Sure, and as previously stated not a problem in itself. Corrections are made, and just because they don't meet Steve's 'self-imposed' standards, doesn't mean they're not acceptable corrections. Poor editorial QC is all this part of the GN proves, unworthy of the 45min rant CPU Coolers - GN cherry-picking data to shout about how they do superior quality testing, and have superior methodology PSU Error - a literal typo? Weak argument there from GN Asterisk Errors - This is a video, if you can't read the text, don't believe everything you hear. You don't have to 'cut it' or 'correct it in video'. That's what Steve would do, that's not what EVERYONE has to do. Supremely arrogant attitude from Steve. Ethical Concerns, Irresponsible actions - All about Framework & Noctua. This is a complete non-issue. The framework investment is mentioned repeatedly, and Noctua were an LMG favourite well before the screwdriver, so why the big deal? Not everyone has to follow Steve's 'Ethical Guidelines'.  Ethical Concerns, Billet Labs - Reeks of a story told from a 1-sided point of view, with cherry-picked comments. Was the review sloppy? Yes. Did it harm the business of Billet Labs? Definitely not. Being exposed to tens of millions of people is no bad thing, and anyone taking a YT video as gospel is frankly deluded. Ethical Concerns, Pwnage Mouse - The most valid argument of the video, but hardly work a 3/4 hour rant. Again, I doubt Pwnage suffered at all from this huge exposure. Unacceptable & disturbing community - Steve knows he's going to get heat from this latest cry for attention, so tries to get ahead of any criticism. The only disturbing aspect to the GN video, is Steve's worrying lack of editorial direction, if he thinks this kind of content is going to do him any favours in the long run. Unfair to everyone - Nope. LMG has done wonders for the tech industry, and to suggest otherwise is folly. GN thinks it's an editorial, scientific review journal. LMG IS an entertainment outfit. At least LMG knows what it is.   

Damn it, Colton!

So, something like this batch file?
@echo off Setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion title Just a screwing yo mom.... for /F "tokens=*" %%A in (users.txt) do ( for /F "tokens=1,2 delims=. " %%y in ("%%A") do ( set userid=%%y set firstchar=!userid:~0,1! REM echo %%y %%z - !firstchar! set user=%%z!firstchar! echo Sending shutdown to \\!user! psshutdown \\!user! -f echo Shutdown sent to \\!user! ) ) pause Just pop that into a notepad document and save it with the file extension as .bat
 
 
 
This is the contents of the users.txt file

That is an extension method. The first parameter is prefixed with a "this" keyword which means that you can call that method on an object of that type. In this case, an Image.
 
So "myImage" is of type Image.

Here's some CSS from StackOverflow which seems to do what you want to do but it's inverted.
 
/* gradient shining border */ border-style: solid; border-width: 3px; -webkit-border-image: -webkit-linear-gradient( left, rgba(0,0,0,1) 1%, rgba(0,255,255,1) 50%, rgba(0,0,0,1) 100% ) 0 0 100% 0/0 0 3px 0 stretch; -moz-border-image: -moz-linear-gradient( left, rgba(0,0,0,1) 1%, rgba(0,255,255,1) 50%, rgba(0,0,0,1) 100% ) 0 0 100% 0/0 0 3px 0 stretch; -o-border-image: -o-linear-gradient( left, rgba(0,0,0,1) 1%, rgba(0,255,255,1) 50%, rgba(0,0,0,1) 100% ) 0 0 100% 0/0 0 3px 0 stretch; border-image: linear-gradient( to left, rgba(0,0,0,1) 1%, rgba(0,255,255,1) 50%, rgba(0,0,0,1) 100% ) 0 0 100% 0/0 0 3px 0 stretch; Just change the rgba values.

You can entirely get rid of the "race_" in every key:
 
{ "races": [ { "title": "", "id": "", "active": true, "description": "", "map": { "enabled": false, "source": "" }, "image": { "enabled": true, "source": "" } "color": { "enabled": false, "color": "rgba(255,255,255)" } } ], "count":1 } And better be more descriptive, like "description" instead of "desc"

The problem is not the C# Code. The batch scipt waits for the first programm to finish before it executes the next command. So as i said look at the start command.

Haven't used that before but try this:
 
jq '.videos[].url' output.json

I would recommend using prepared statements instead of escaping
 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24716560/do-i-need-to-escape-my-variables-if-i-use-mysqli-prepared-statements
 

You're using mysql_real_escape_string, change this to:
$username = mysqli_real_escape_string($con, $username); for example.

also, mysql_num_rows needs to be mysqli_num_rows
 
If you still have issues, PM me.

i have a image in a folder in my pc that i want to display in my web page. i have tried the code below but i havent been successful. what am i doing wrong?

This seems to be an issue,

 
Remove the col-md-4

Just write all code next to each other?

dont learn visual basic... its crap. C# maybile? 

It depends on the location of the images, if you had a directory on your website where you would store the images, it would be fine.

It's possible to store images in a database but I'm not advising it.

The reason the benchmarks are blowing past at superspeed is that we want to put them in there to show "hey we actually did the homework" but we don't honestly think the exact difference in scores between one piece of hardware and another is necessarily that important.
 
We've talked about it internally and I think the direction we're going to head is a summary voice over of the key conclusions we were able to draw from our testing based on the numbers we collected.
 
The raw information will be there for folks who care enough, and the bigger picture stuff will be summarized - all without increasing the length of our videos.
 
Information density is something I personally value as a consumer of content and is something I continue to strive to increase in our own videos. It's not necessarily the best for non-native speakers, but it's been one of the things that I think has led to higher quality so far, so I'm not looking to reverse the direction.. yet..
 
As always, making the perfect tech video is a moving target...

PS. Its also probably easier to just make a basic wordpress website, but I do think its important to understand how the PHP behind Wordpress works so you understand when Wordpress is working against you.

@-iSynthesis Alright. All of this comes with the disclaimer that there are so many things wrong security wise with what you are doing here, but I do understand the importance of learning the wrong way to do something to help you work toward the right solution. I am a professional Web developer.

Don't use $_GET, use $_POST. There is a character limit on the get array due to it being processed from the browsers URL bar (limit ~2048 characters).
 
Its probably easier to write to a file (this is basically a flat file database) and in other-site.php put that files contents into the html output.

I'd assume that the service would be _ts3 like minecraft would be _minecraft.
If you having issues with this, please PM me and I will be able to help more
 
The priority field determines the precedence of use of the record's data. Clients should use the SRV records with the lowest-numbered priority value first, and fall back to records of higher value if the connection fails.
 
Weight:
# _service._proto.name. TTL class SRV priority weight port target. _sip._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 60 5060 bigbox.example.com. _sip._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 20 5060 smallbox1.example.com. _sip._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 10 20 5060 smallbox2.example.com. _sip._tcp.example.com. 86400 IN SRV 20 0 5060 backupbox.example.com. The first three records share a priority of 10, so the weight field's value will be used by clients to determine which server (host and port combination) to contact. The sum of all three values is 100, so bigbox.example.com will be used 60% of the time. The two hosts smallbox1 and smallbox2 will be used for 20% of requests each, with half of the requests that are sent to smallbox1 (i.e. 10% of the total requests) and the remaining half to smallbox2. If bigbox is unavailable, these two remaining machines will share the load equally, since they will each be selected 50% of the time.
If all three servers with priority 10 are unavailable, the record with the next lowest priority value will be chosen, which is backupbox.example.com. This might be a machine in another physical location, presumably not vulnerable to anything that would cause the first three hosts to become unavailable.
The load balancing provided by SRV records is inherently limited, since the information is essentially static. Current load of servers is not taken into account.
