    I have been a subscriber for 5 years. I used to regularly watch his videos but in past years his videos have been increasingly annoying. I hate the recent linustechtip store product placements and clickbait titles and Linus's clear bias against Apple has come to a point where honestly I cannot trust his reviews anymore. The latest Google pixel 4 review video "Apple should be embarrassed- Google Pixel review" is clearly so biased that it really made me question his intentions. Its a review of an Android flagship phone, yet he only compares it to iPhone 11 and no other Android phone like Samsung or Huawei  and constantly finds ways to bash Apple instead of honestly reviewing a product. At this point I genuinely think he is kissing Google's ass by praising the Google product on the google platform youtube and taking every opportunity to bash Apple.

    Task manager doesn't show the compute/Cuda usage that F@H has.
    In task manager go to the Performance tab. Select the graphics card and change one of the graphs to show CUDA usage.

    Cloudflare is 100% in their legal rights to drop 8chan as a client. 
     
    but they might want to delete this. July 09, 2017 4:29PM We at Cloudflare strongly believe in network neutrality, the principle that networks should not discriminate against content that passes through them.

    Since the primary two mods responsible for badge assignment duties (Whiskers and myself) haven't been around much in recent months, we've had a bit of a chat behind the scenes and thought we'd try something new.
     
    Instead of you having to try to figure out which mod to write a PM to in order to get your badges, we're gonna try to collect all requests in a single thread and then whichever mod sees it first can assign the badges.
     
    DON'T FORGET TO GIVE YOUR FOLDING ID AND/OR ACCOUNT ON BOINCSTATS SO THAT WE CAN VERIFY YOUR STATS!

    F@H Event Badge Thresholds
    These are special badges handed out for participating in the official Folding events organized by the Folding community. These badges will be handed out automatically after the events to eligible participants (subject to individual event guidelines and requirements).
    Event Founder - A unique badge only available to those who participated in the first event. ** This Badge is no longer available for distribution ** Event Newbie - For participating in at least 1 Folding event. Event Veteran - For participating in at least 3 Folding events. Event Fanatic - For participating in at least 5 Folding events. Below is the list of Official Folding Events that have counted toward the Folding Event badges. To be an Official Folding Event, they must specifically be endorsed by LMG, so Folding Events like the Summer Sprint of 2019 do not count towards obtaining these badges. Additionally, on top of folding and meeting the minimum requirements for the event, you must make sure you sign up specifically to be tracked for the event; we do not track every LTT user who was folding at the time of the event (this has caused a lot of confusion in the past).

    Note on Processing
     
    We haven't nailed down all the details yet, so this might change as things evolve, but to make it easier for us to track which requests have been processed and which have not, we're going to set posts which have been processed to Hidden for now. So don't be scared if the thread appears empty to you, that might just mean we're all caught up on badge assignment duty.
     
    Team Membership
     
    To be eligible for the badges, you have to have contributed the credits/WUs under the LTT team membership. The teams are:
    https://stats.foldingathome.org/team/223518 for F@H, and https://www.boincstats.com/stats/-1/team/detail/b85bbff1c6df413a4b44cfb82854273f for BOINC

    You should sign up for a Passkey from F@H. Using a passkey enables you to receive QRB (Quick Return Bonus), which will provide a huge bonus to how many points you earn.
     
    https://apps.foldingathome.org/getpasskey
    Put in your F@H Username and your email address. They will email you a passkey. Use that Passkey in your client with your username and team details (#223518).

    Fire2box reacted to Dedayog in How often do you clean your PC?   
    Dust itself doesn't hurt a PC.  It's when there is a blanket of dust covering fans and heatsink fins, etc.
     
    It takes a lot of dust to actually hurt a PC.  
     
    I vacuum my filters when I clean my house, about every 2 weeks.  For the interior, about every 6 months.

    Fire2box reacted to Spotty in Is Intel in 2019 = AMD in the early 2010s?   
    I went for AMD in 2010-2015, not necessarily because of technology standpoint, but more because of a business and finances standpoint. Intel is a very rich company. They can afford to take a few years of losses. AMD was not really in that position, and it's only in the last couple of years that they have been profitable.
