Grats! First year? What language?

Let's hope they debug it quickly and roll it out

Second year of university, C++. I study computer science though so it's not only programming. I wish I could focus only on it.

 

You can try it - https://www.mozilla.org/bg/firefox/developer/

It's stable enough, but has a few annoyances mainly with youtube.

From salty to bath salty in 2.9 seconds

Downloaded a new computer.

I spent a few hours fixing up my laptop, meanwhile the graphics drivers always fail to install (and intel support is pretty useless)

I'm a member of a few other (non tech) forums and often see these threads that are hundreds of pages long. Thought I'd try it here, there were a few other forums threads from over a year ago so decided to start a new one.

 

Rules:

 

Must be tech/computer related (at least vaguely)

Keep general chit chat to a minimum

 

Pictures encouraged :D

 

I'll start, I'm checking through and clearing out all these drives I have around:

 

attachicon.gif11377367_661448123989338_2631816574662258222_n.jpg

 

What are you up to?

 

OK, this was last night, but ...

 

Fired up my new build for the first time, installed Win10 Pro, downloaded the killer nic driver from gigabyte and installed it, set up my data drive and put my primary Libraries on it. Started installing my Steam library and tested the CD rip capability of my 2 drives.

 

One drive will not eject, so I'll try to find out what's going on there. 2x slimline in a 5.25" bay in a Corsair 250D. Will get Skyrim configured with the nexus mods that are on my original PC.

 

Skyrim will be running, fully modded, this weekend.

Sig under construction.

Got approved by a finance company for my new build, did a little jig in celebration. It'll be my first up-to-date high-end graphics card and a mobo & CPU combo that isn't 2 generations old already :D :D :D

 

I also turned my monitor about 3 degrees to the left... that's about it as far as tech goes today :|

was yesterday, but I helped my bigger brother build a computer :) the past 2 month I have helped him pick parts.

 

and last, I watch  tech on youtube and read about it daily, no surprise really

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. 
It matters that you don't just give up.”

Tried to grab a good clone of a failing HDD  (mostly succeeded) and rewired part of the main AV rack for the complex at work. Then I did some case work when I got home.

Now I just need to figure out where the pump and res will go, drill some holes and paint everything.

Studying towards my last practical final in my degree; 
Pretty easy because of the knowledge I have accumulated in the last year or so regarding Cisco networking products. This one is all based on VOIP, setting up a VOIP network using both softphones and Cisco phones in conjunction with a couple of Cisco routers. It's super nice having proper network labs to deploy products that are used in the real world.
