agh, I was planning to buy a sapphire RX 480 4GB nitro+ blabla whatever the huge name is, but it's not in stock yet. The 8gb OC version is in stock in multiple stores tho, and the urge to buy it is becoming bigger and bigger :hairpull: My concern is if it will be worth the 70 bucks more than the 4 GB one

[QUOTE=DrTaxi;50856987]Okay so I know Sipwicket doesn't really like vulnerabilities with a marketing department but Secure Boot just got permanently broken and [url=https://rol.im/securegoldenkeyboot/]the advisory is the best thing ever[/url][/QUOTE] PCILeech also broke secure boot as well as just about everything short of pre-boot security measures. Where did you find this advisory, by the way?

It's reasonably cheap now for only €350, which is just a bit more than the 480's go for currently. [url]https://tweakers.net/pricewatch/479855/sapphire-radeon-nitro-r9-fury-4g-hbm-with-back-plate-(1050mhz).html[/url] Definitely worth it if you don't mind the extra power usage and the 4GB HBM.

I think my university is just trying to piss me off. So like a month ago something called the "UNF housing grant" for $900 showed up in my Financial Aid. It helped out so much, to the point where I only owed $1 left to everything for that semester. Today, I got an email saying "oops! you don't have 15 credit hours, only 13, and thanks to this new initiative we just started, we'll be taking that back on the 12th :^)" So now I've got an unplanned $900 to worry about, fuck me.

Floppy drive textbook strikes again. [quote]BitLocker is also used in Windows Server 2008 as well as the forthcoming Windows 7 operating system.[/quote] This edition was published on December 29th 2015. I underestimated the laze and greed of textbook companies. It's been through three revisions since Windows 7 came out for fucks sake.

Would a server with 100mbps bandwidth be sufficient? I'd like to move away from my current one to a cheaper, better specced alternative but it's a huge jump from my current 1gbps to 100mbps. I serve content so speed is important. I could saturate the bandwidth on that box by myself.

I think that's the most vague question ever and possibly only one you can answer. What kind of content? What kind of utilization? If you can saturate it yourself then I don't see how it would be enough?

I suppose it wouldn't be sufficient, or perhaps it would be for the pictures and videos but things would definitely crawl to a halt for anything larger than that if multiple people were to load stuff from it at the same time.

Surely your current provider will have something, if not it's not hard to measure from the system itself.

someone else want a 200GB 2yr OneDrive Promo I got another key from another drive

I'm looking at using some low capacity SSDs as for an offline archive. Do you guys know the shelf life of an SSD and 2.5 inch hard drive? These things are basically just gonna sit in a safe for 10 to 15 years, I was considering LTO tapes, but I didn't know if I'll be able to find a drive in the future and it's really expensive.

You'll be able to get your hands on it in the future without a worry. If you're really worried, just keep a drive with the tapes. Sounds like you're gonna be making a one time archive so I assume you could just stick the drive there once you're done.

Whats the shelf life of LTO data?

[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;50860432]Gonna buy a Surface RT now that secure boot is broken forever Convince me to not pull the trigger and regret this[/QUOTE] Wait for someone else to show how to use the key in question to flash a Windows RT device with different OS first?

[QUOTE=Brt5470;50860732]Whats the shelf life of LTO data?[/QUOTE] A good 30 years depending on generation. Just keep magnets and general hazards away from the tapes, keep them in a good strong box, and you're fine.
