Do you guys think Airport security will let me bring my external hard-drive with me in my hand luggage?
For those who don't remember it, [url=https://dl.pushbulletusercontent.com/FR6LkilpXtQ11P0g1rbMRNOBlqsH0wvf/DSC_0018.JPG]here it is[/url]
First I'm afraid of them asking me about the bomb-looking device, I am also afraid of the magnetic shit in the scanner ruining the drive or something

I think it'll survive going through the scanner, laptops usually survive so why wouldn't a bare HDD do? don't think there's anything magnetic about them.
as long as you put it on its own tray, I think you're good to go

A friend got stopped and questioned about his FM radio. He was like 15 at the time.
Another friend got stopped and questioned about his Zoom H4n audio recorder.
I don't want them to take it because I have a folder called "not child pornography" which is filled with pictures of cheese pizza. And no I won't remove it. I'll try to check it in for safety reasons, one being that the drive isn't seated in the mount so it might fall off while in the hand luggage

I had a butterfly "knife" (It was a can opener) confiscated last time I went through there. Never know what beloved thing they'll take from you

Trek, I hope you can afford that many indial lines.
Even for one dead-basic line here in BC (no caller ID, voicemail, call forwarding, outdialing, etc.) It's still $30/month.
You basically have to D/A from VoIP boxes these days to make that big of a BBS work.
And if you do, you better damn well have a line that supports Minitel or at the least.... 110 baud half duplex.

The original titan was the most short lived titan ever though, because a card with actual better performance came out right after. The Titan X is still better than a 980ti, but not by any big margin.

You'll be fine.
I once brought an entire disassembled desktop through hand luggage, you should have seen the x-ray and the operators expression.
They'll probably just make you unpack the bag and send it through again. That's what they did with me.

People who are computer literate enough wouldn't buy from Best Buy in the first place

I just go there to try things like cameras and other crap, and buy things when I don't feel like waiting for the shipping, or I don't want to pay for shipping and the prices at Best Buy and every other brick and mortar store is the same as online.
The last thing I bought from Best Buy was a Chromecast. No way in hell I was gonna pay the whatever amount for shipping on the Google Play Store. That and they had a $25 Google Play Store credit that was valid at Best Buy and I guess off the Google Play Store too but the shipping costs were there and saving $10 was worth buying something from Best Buy.

It's labelled as a desktop replacement because the screen is huge and the battery life is useless. It's like Chrysler labeling the PT Cruiser as a light truck because the gas mileage is so shitty.

Don't forget everything on the inside falling off so you have plenty of cargo space.

Well they did, especially if there's one in front of me right now. 5 years ago that is..
I gave up with fucking Best Buy when they were still fucking Future Shop and still selling CRT's. Fucking $60 for a Belkin DVI cable.
Some store here still sells 50$ 2m Cat5 cables.
That's the only network cables they sell.
Event the placebo gold plated "premium" HDMI cables are cheaper than that.
