[QUOTE=B!N4RY;50932888]I'd personally recommend a korean 27" 1440P monitor instead. They're significantly cheaper and are much better supported.[/QUOTE]
I already have one of those, I want it for the 16:10 for my linux desktop.

[QUOTE=TheDestroyerOfall;50932902]Im pretty sure he was an idiot. he got expelled for literally putting a kid who "annoyed him" in the hospital for a dumb joke. He's one of the people i can truly say i actually hate, especially since he was spinning it like the kid deserved it, but he was new to the school and trying to fit it.
It was back in 2008 so i wasn't a member of facepunch yet and im still not sure i want to go onto linux for any reason, simply put i really don't have a good reason to.
I feel bad and decrepit when it comes to newer technology these days. In the past things were more technical in the way that it was done, and i have a lot of misconceptions about newer technology now. So sorry guys, when i'm adamant about something being correct i don't really [I]mean[/I] to sound stupid but i probably do.

to be honest i would go with a 4k screen at that price and size. My asus is literally the best monitor i've ever had, but it takes a lot to drive games. i usually put it on 1080p because this monitor scales so well but 1440p does as well.
speaking of which this guy doesn't understand it takes more power to push 1080p at 144hz than 1440p at 60 hz and attributes literally everything to a bottleneck everywhere

The literal only place the bottleneck is, is the resolution he uses.[/QUOTE]
Wouldn't be on a gaming system. I already have my korean 1440p@100hz
[QUOTE=garychencool;50929816]If you are on a business trip with all expenses covered, including laundry services, then it doesn't matter. If you want to save some money, go to a local coin laundry if there's even one nearby. If not, then go hand wash it in the sink and remember to bring some detergent or something. There's cloth hangers in your hotel for a reason.
Also $25 for a shirt, geez. It better be dry cleaned, folded and smell amazing when I get it (it would be tho).[/QUOTE]
this was an absolute godsend when we were in japan on vacation, we chose not to bring 5 bags of clothes and stuff with us, and only 2 small backpacks. we don't have street laundromats here so it was a pleasant surprise to be able to take a short walk, pay like $10 and have our clothes washed and dried in an hour
[QUOTE=garychencool;50931955]Pretty much why when I end up in the process of building a desktop, I know that the prices are going to be terrible[/QUOTE]
But are they as terrible as in the UK? I swear over here they convert USD to GBP by making say $200 into £200 and maybe add a bit more just to screw you over a little more.
Hey, at least thanks to current UK politics, soon 1 USD = 1 GBP will actually be right.
Should I use KeePass or LastPass?
[QUOTE=nutcake;50933679]Should I use KeePass or LastPass?[/QUOTE]
I use KeePass with a Dropbox. Works great so far.
[QUOTE=nutcake;50933679]Should I use KeePass or LastPass?[/QUOTE]
Not sure I'd trust LastPass with all my passwords to everything. With KeePass you can control where the passwords are, Dropbox works nicely (Dropsync if you need them on Android) but you could store them on your own server if you don't trust Dropbox.
If anyone uses dropbox, make sure to have 2FA set up because they don't even attempt to stop or notify you when someone logs in from fucking Algeria and presumably grabs all your shit

The password file is encrypted with my master password right? I think I'll just put it on my Google drive since I already have that set up.

I just brought a single backpack when I was traveling and just did the same. Laundry was only 50SEK in Stockholm and they included detergent, it was pretty solid.

Short of a third party utility like DBAN to nuke the drive beforehand, I don't think so.

Diskpart script?

Easy if you use a Windows PE tool for install.

hot chips conference i assume, saw it's going on in cupertino while reading about hololens stuff[/QUOTE]
Yep. Hot Chips. They even gave us 128GB flash drives. I expected the crappy old 1-2GB ones. But nope. That was awesome.
The Zen, Skylake and Power9 presentations are today which I am fawning over like crazy. The Skylake one is a joke, just marketing bullshit but I don't expect any better from Intel. Zen slides have a lot of good information but I'm hoping there's some certain missing information in the actual presentations. I have some questions I want to ask. and Power9 I've already poured over the document to hell and back and [b]holy shit[/b] that is going to be a crazy, crazy good thing.

I may have not phrased myself correctly, it was in the hostel. You guys really don't have laundromats there and it was a problem when I was in Göteborg.

You could just open up a command prompt and use diskpart to clear it out manually though. Still might be quicker.
You need a 2.7GB download, on top of the preload, to play Mankind Divided.
Do they not understand what preloading means, or something?

Ew, that's a Surface RT? I thought it was just a Surface Pro with the bad keyboard option. Makes my continued use of a first-gen Droid look sane in comparison.
I really need to check the uptime on that thing, btw. I think I've hit two years on it by now.

It's a surface RT because secureboot is broken and so far they've gotten grub on it. Perhaps someday it'll have linux for arm but right now you can pick them up for as low as $20.

$20? All right, you have my interest now.
Wonder if there's a way to get one to work as a second screen for my Surface Pro 2 with Remote Desktop or something. I've been looking around for cheap touchscreen monitors but those apparently don't exist yet.
