LukeTim got a reaction from toastythomas in What should I review next?
Some more smart-home stuff maybe?
I am quite interested in Philips Hue, for example, and would be interested to see whether they are worth the steep asking price.

LukeTim got a reaction from vanished in AMD Radeon RX 480
Actually, 6-pin is rated for 75W, and the card can draw about 75W over PCIe.
So, one could assume that all AMD did was add these two values together.
Still tells you nothing about real world power consumption (one would assume this is a decent amount less than the total amount the card can draw) nor anything about the TDP.

Wow, the power of the mind. I totally thought it said TDP there. Thanks for the reminder.

LukeTim got a reaction from SansVarnic in Investigatory Powers Bill (Snooper's Charter) Passed by UK Government
I'll be setting up my own private VPN in another country, then, I guess.
(the fact that I can do so hugely undermines this bill and the fact that it was never even mentioned is concerning. Who are these people who are so ignorant as to not even consider this and yet still be arrogant enough to try and legislate?)
They possibly didn't have any security experts because every security expert would tell them it's a bad idea.

When ISPs start storing internet history though...
Imagine the cyberattacks... cybercriminals are going to hit them with everything.

LukeTim got a reaction from typographie in How many bytes is a folder?
What do you mean "how many bytes is a folder"?
A folder takes no storage space on the disk. It is purely a file system abstraction. It exists as a pointer/reference in the file system's tree... It takes up some space in the file system tables/tree because it has a name, some security/permissions information and some other metadata. Other than that it doesn't take up space in the same sense that a file does. It doesn't really have a size...

LukeTim reacted to typographie in How many bytes is a folder?
I'm making some assumptions here, but I don't think a folder itself is "data." It's just a way for the OS to organize and present things to you. It isn't actually a thing on the disk.
Edit: Yeah, what LukeTim said!

LukeTim reacted to manikyath in What OS do you use?
well.. if you wanna do your poll good, add these:
- linux mint
- ubuntu (or its billions of derivatives)
- debian
- opensuse
- arch (or derivatives, since honestly they're pretty much in the same boat)
- fedora
- centos
- slackware
- freeBSD
- gentoo

LukeTim reacted to vanished in Will the perfect android smartphone ever exist?
By virtue of it running android alone, by definition the answer is "no" for me.
And I don't like iOS either so don't get any ideas
