    Valid reply. I didn't think about the legal end of things, it's probably just slow moving with processes. When thinking of EVERYONE'S career at LTT, they should be careful and consult lawyers. Good reply.

    This is the least toxic response I have received to my nuanced views of what has happened here that I have received. Good reply!

    eGetin reacted to skimmilk5 in Whats the point of intel at this point   
    Intel is not a small startup. It's a multi-billion dollar corporation that hires over a hundred-thousand people as a semiconductor manufacturer. AMD is a smaller company than Intel (believe it or not), and while AMD still has great value, it comes down to the needs of the end user. In my personal computer, I use an AMD Ryzen processor, and I love it. In the server fleet that I manage, all of the processors are Intel, and for good reason: they've had more validation and have wider support on a lot of really funky enterprise applications. Intel's engineers are still incredibly intelligent people (and I can only hope to attain a portion of their knowledge), and they'll continue to innovate in the best way that they can to be competitive with AMD. They're not just going to shrivel up and die because AMD released a better product than they did - they're going to continue to try and release better products and outdo the competition.
     
    Just a few years ago, you could ask the same question about AMD: why did AMD exist in 2015, when AMD FX was the best that they had to offer and it only offered mediocre performance compared to Intel? AMD wanted to claw back market-share, and they're only part of the way there, with Intel still comfortably holding a >60% market share.

    eGetin reacted to DJ46 in Best ergonomic chair that isn't crazy expensive?   
    Bit of an unusual suggestion:
    At that price, you're not going to find many ergonomic chairs, and the ones you will find probably won't last that long. High end used chairs from offices are hard to come by, nevermind at that price.
     
    You might want to consider getting a used car seat from a higher end model.
    That's what I did, and for around half your budget I got an electric ventilated passenger seat with adjustable backrest, lumbar support, headrest and seat angle.
    That would leave plenty of budget around to build a basic stand for it with some industrial caster wheels.
     
    It does require some DIY fabrication, and if you're not comfortable with soldering and wiring stuff without instructions, you might want to consider a manual seat instead. There are plenty of manual seat options with adjustable lumbar support, in fact, those should be a lot cheaper and easier to find than an electric one.
     
    And honestly, I don't think I've ever heard of a car seat falling apart due to cheap materials, unlike cheap office/gaming chairs. Perhaps a really old one will have ruined foam, or a torn up cover.

    eGetin got a reaction from piratemonkey in Twitter accounts were up for sale before hack   
    The thing with security is, that you may have as many verification steps as you'd like but it's still possible to have ways to get around them. Security can be though of as an onion. It has many layers and authentication layer is only one of them. I wouldn't be surprised if Twitter also has limited the internal tools to their internal network but they may have some flaws in their VPN implementation or elsewhere. It'll be interesting to hear what was the main reason for this event because it might not have been only a simple authentication bypass.

    If I go to a car-centric youtube channel do I want info on honda civics, ford escapes, and toyota camrys?  Sure I do.  
     
    Do I want all their videos to be on those cars?  Nah, Im not gonna keep coming back unless they occasionally strap a rocket to the honda civic, or maybe showcase an exotic car now and then.
     
    They have done countless budget videos with ryzen 3600's and entry level builds with the athlon 3000.  We have a lot of honda civic videos, it was time to strap a rocket onto one.

    I'm pretty sure the average user doesn't need to access their RAM or CPU all the time. In fact, unless you experience a relatively rare hardware fault, you might never even think of being able to take them out easily. I chose AIO to my current PC just because I was bored of always buying some good Noctua cooler and being happy with that
