    I see... and foolish Obi Wan thinks that there is hope of me becoming a Jedi once more. No the dark side of the Force is strong within me.

    Darth Vader got a reaction from nukem in Australia considering introducing new laws to stop internet piracy   
    Then piracy will drop down a bit, but it won't be a significant drop whatsoever.
     
    Most of the people who pirate will pirate even if the cost of a theater entry was 2 bucks. I mean people who go watch a movie in a theater don't just do it only to see the movie per se. It's the experience of going there, of spending time with friends and loved ones.
     
    So those who pirate will usually pirate no matter what the price is on the movies, as they might not even want to bother going there.
     
    I mean of it was a price issue, then barely anyone would have pirated shows on cable TV. They would have just watched them on TV. Game of Thrones might give an extra intensive to be pirated since you have to be specifically subscribed to HBO to get it, but shows like Family Guy, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Two and Half Men... all these shows are available for most people on cable TV, yet they get heavily pirated as well by people who mostly can watch it on TV.
     
    It's mostly about the convenience to pirates, not just the money.

    Darth Vader got a reaction from TheRuke in 3770k vs 4770k?   
    Ahhh now I understand; so you got it half and half.
     
    You got the User Data folder here and the application somewhere else. Google usually puts them together in AppData, but I guess you chose to move. However, the User Data folder is specifically the one that gotta stay in App Data. In contains all of your personal settings and data (history, bookmarks, extensions...) So really if you reinstall chrome or install it on a new PC, you can just copy this folder from the old PC to the new PC and put it in the same location.
     
    As to what junctions are, they are basically shortcuts, but more for Windows than for you. It makes Windows and/or other programs think that a folder is in one location, but in fact you have placed it in another.

    Darth Vader got a reaction from mineblaster in how many ssd have been murdered   
    A raid array failure rate is the probablity percentage over a certain period of time that 1 or more drives fail in your raid, such that you will lose some or ALL of your data and that the raid cannot be rebuilt after which.
     
    The faliure rate for a raid 0 is 1-(1-r)n
    The faliure rate for a raid 5 is 1-(1-r)n-nr(1-r)n-1
     
    for which n is the number of drives you use in the array, and r is the rate of failure of a single drive over a certain period of time, as provided by the manufacturer.
     
    So considering the drives you picked have a failure probablity of 0.58% annually for the single drive, and you got 4 of them:
    Over the period of 3 years, r=3*(0.58%)=1.74% and n=4
     
    And so your failure rate over a three year period in raid 0 = 1-(1-0.0174)4 = 6.78% and I'm sure you can calculate it for raid 5
     
     
    Redundancy:
    In raid 0, the total disk size is the sum of the sizes of all of your disks (4*120=480GB) There are NO redundant drives. If one drive fails, you cannot rebuild the raid array.
    In raid 5, the total disk size, for 4 drives, is the size of 3 of the drives (3*120=360GB) The redundancy is 1 drive. Meaning if any 1 drive at a certain time failed, you can replace that 1 drive and the raid array will rebuild itself.

    Darth Vader got a reaction from lucky74dog in Whats The Hardest You Ever Raged A Game Or Anything Tech Related?   
    Not a videogame or specifically tech related (however the thing that I am talking about was a marvel of technology and engineering) but a number of years ago, my boss ordered the construction of a.... a structure for.... some purposes. I was tasked to oversee the overall progress of the operations of this stucture.
     
    Long story short, the idiotic engineers left a weak point in this structure. A thermal exhaust port that leads directly to the reactor core of the Death St I mean building.. ahh structure. Then came a bunch of ... vandals who exploited this weak point and destroyed this structure.
     
    Then few years we rebuilt the structure. Bigger and better than the first one. However, the incredibly stupid engineers have yet again managed to leave a weak point in the structure, and it was quite similar to the first one: an unprotected coolant shaft that leads directly to the hypermatter reactor core. Once again the vandals managed to get in there and destroyed our structre.
     
    I was very disappointed with the engineering team that I checked them to death I mean put them on paid leave for 2 months.
     
    I then went to the theme park trying to put my mind off it... it did not work.

    You must respect your father and never object to what he says, even if you think it's wrong (which he most likely isn't as he is older and wiser)
     
    My son was a spoiled child like you once and refused to listen to me... so I chopped off his hand to teach him a listen.
