Extingquish got a reaction from da na in Experiences with non-techies
Also if you were early enough you would have heard "How do I mount this reservoir? Do I need a drill? I didn't know I needed a drill!" I stopped watching after that...

Extingquish got a reaction from IAmAndre in IKEA desk part?
It's a tool to put the allen key into so your hands don't get sore holding the bare metal
Not a part of the desk lol

Extingquish got a reaction from Bigtruck747 in GPU Folding Facts and Fiction - Configuration and Settings
You can have multiple cards in a system, although with the newer work units, the GPUs work together with the CPU, so you'd need to make sure you had enough bandwidth for the communications and a powerful enough CPU
Mining would happen on just the GPUs, and there wouldn't be much communication between the CPU and GPUs, hence why you would have seen mining rigs with 6 GPUs along with something like a G3220
Hopefully that made sense

I see no reason why this has to be so complicated, unless you have to do the calculation by long division, as just factorising the first expression to be (3x-2)(2x-1) is then easily divided by 2x-1 without long division, at least in my mind anyway.

If my Irish mother has taught me right, calling something "gas" sort of means the thing is really funny (or possibly odd, haven't quite picked up the context yet) It's just Irish slang

Sorry to hear about your situation. I was going to post exactly what @LtStaffel said, but of course he got there first

Codecademy did a good job teaching Python I think. Also, the community edition of Pycharm is an excellent free IDE for python.

Extingquish got a reaction from joppetie in LINUS TECH TIPS TEAM Q&A
I know you've said the channel has started to produce more "show like content", but what do you see LMG doing in 2016? Like will there be any new channels popping up / new ideas for the main channel?

Extingquish got a reaction from alextheaverage in Computer Crashing while F@H
Folding is really picky about overclocks, and it stresses systems in a different way to standard benchmarks. The best thing to do would be to remove the overclock(s) and see if it crashes then
Also 1.6V is pretty excessive IMO, I'd turn that down if I were you

Make sure your recycle bin is emptied, that's usually what takes up a lot of space for me
Also run CCleaner, it might be able to free up a bit of space as well

Extingquish got a reaction from TheRandomness in Why did microsoft skip windows 9?
Nobody really knows apart from Microsoft themselves, but some common reasons that are speculated are
Microsoft wanted to make sure that it wasn't closely linked to Windows 8 As @Kevin_Walter said, they counted Win8.1 as Windows 9 Apple called their operating system OS X and it's worked out for them, so Microsoft copied them because 7 8 9? -

Extingquish got a reaction from DarkTornadoGames in FreeNAS via Mobile Internet?
Yes, this is possible
The guide you linked shows you how to do 3 things: Install and set up FreeNAS, Port forward your router, and up a dynamic DNS service
Install FreeNAS
I assume you're able to do this part, but here's a video anyway:
(The main video starts at 0:47)
Port forwarding
If you've never port forwarded a router, this can seem complicated at first, but it really isn't once you get the hang of it. Port forwarding allows you to connect to your NAS whenever you're not connected to your home network. http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/ has guides for most routers, and if you can't find the exact model you have, try something similar as the process will probably be similar within the same manufacturer.
Note: There does seem to be an ad that pops up every now and again for a software utility that can port forward your router automatically, just close it. It really is simple to do it manually
Dynamic DNS
This just makes it easier to remember your IP address (instead of typing in something like 281.232.281.656 you could just have is be a URL like example.no-ip.org or example1.dyndns.org depending on the provider you go with.) I use noip, and here's a guide for it http://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/getting-started-with-no-ip-com/ although most services will have a similar setup process
Since this will be visible from the internet, you'll want to choose a strong password (I hope this is obvious, or at best just slipped to the back of your mind) Also, you might want to consider what @braneopbru has said, owncloud is pretty simple to set up and is pretty secure
I hope I haven't left too much out of this post, and if you need any help just PM me, and I'll try my best

Extingquish got a reaction from MoonKnightSpidey in Is there a certain team LinusTechTips people fold for?
No, instead of you constantly transmitting data your progress is packaged up into a finished work unit and then is uploaded to the F@H servers. Whenever the WU can't be uploaded, the program just retries until it is successful (I think)
The only time you really need your PC to be connected to the internet is when you're downloading and uploading WUs

I've seen this type of thing before, and has anyone thought to check the date on the video? It's 25 months old.
