A factory overclocked 970 is roughly the equivalent to a 780 Ti. I think I'll upgrade for realzies this year.
[QUOTE=kaukassus;46020159]Some more stories from new Co-Worker...
he had to edit the hosts file because DNS changes are not applied instant and we had to test shit.
He complained that he doesen't have permissions to edit hosts file. I told him to copy it to the desktop, edit it and overwrite it.
He said he knows it better and I shouldn't teach him....
... 20 minutes later, he still didn't manage to write the changes to the hosts file....
Also he told me that jailbreaking makes iPhones faster.[/QUOTE]

He's leaving by the end of the year.
Until then, I'm gonna see how far my patience can go.
Lol Skyrim doesn't seem to like 2560x1080, the UI cuts off in the middle of the screen and it may be my card or something else, but when I turn quickly it's everything gets blurry.

Does SkyUI work better?
I'm using SkyUI, but it still not scaling all the way
Eh, maybe I'm just miss remembering things, it's only the options menu.

shit, all that alt tabbing and it crashed.

Yeah, I'm gonna just go back to regular old 1080p
My frame rate seems to be fine, my GPU temps are about mid 70's, but when I move the game stutters reeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally bad.
Great, my roommate discovered P2P. Time to secretly limit his up/down.
I took two hours teaching him about how to search Google for good hardware review sites and how to find reliable programs (and he did an assload of random hardware searching for God knows why for which I for some reason patiently sat by), and he still types in "Best avi to mp4 converter" and clicks the first Google link. It's hopeless :(
Much better. Probably because my GPU only has 1.5GB of memory? :(
I'm seriously considering a 980, stock price is only about 100 more than what I paid for my 760, yet it's leagues faster and only just got a smaller power draw.

He only gets tearing at 60fps, streaming at 30 is fine
Welp that's annoying. Bath tap has decided it wants to drip, so have no hot water. If I turn the tap on, a load of black chunks shoot out every now and then.
This won't be cheap to fix.
Always lovely to have to restart a VM that takes 5 min to boot and 5 more to actually initialize the web UI
Had to do it 3 times so far, i'd hoped i'd be able to start doing useful stuff like 30 min ago

[QUOTE=Amiga OS;46021087]The other day I saw another Surface Pro user for the first time.[/QUOTE]
First time i saw a Surface in the wild was when i took my driving test. Instructor logged in, tapped some buttons to check stuff and then sent it to a server when we were done. I actually got the protocol before i exited the car
Cool shit

I've met 3 other Windows Phone users. Like, what are the chances to run into one of those 18 people in the entire world?
It be talk like a pirate day, me hearties, yarr.
My school is a part of a network of private schools. Top brass have set up some kind of sharepoint thing but haven't really put restrictions on it. I had a spare lesson today so I decided to search * in this sharepoint thingo. Bam, 86'000-ish results basically giving me the name, picture, school and grade of every single student, teacher, office clerk, director and other staff members in a 1000km radius, [I]including myself[/I]. I nope'd pretty fast and told the school tech dude about it.
It also gives me access to everyone's documents, meaning it'd be possible to steal assignments from the top student in my state.Who the [I]fuck[/I] decided this was a good idea?

I somehow managed to run out of 8GB of memory. it fucked up my system so badly I had to reset as Windows killed its own UI. second time this has happened

HOW?
I never really manages to break the 8GB usage, unless I was doing one of the following:
* Rendering hours of lossless 1080p videos
* Compiling huge project
* Being victim of nasty memory leak
* Running an Atlassian product.
* Minecraft

I got 16GB of ram and I've never been even remotely close to that when I'm generally working on my PC.
But then again, I'm used to working on machines with less than 2gb of RAM.

Chrome must hate me, it alone takes up 2GB. given enough time (1-2 hours of being open) it'll take 4-5GB
Im at university right now, the PC I'm sitting at has a gtx 780, awesome.

Well, I guess I only have 5 tabs open at any given time.
Made some fairly sweet blinking LED Christmas trees at school.

Grabbed one for myself, brought it home, don't really care for nick nacks so I gave it to my mother.
She gets seizures from blinking lights (she hasn't gotten it diagnosed, but it's probably some type of epilepsy), so she wanted them to stay on.
Eliminates everything that's even slightly interesting about the board, but oh well.
The diagram I drew for myself like two hours ago ended up being pretty nice.
