Why aren't they fixing it, or is it some hacking ploot?

My phone is kaput. Bastards!

Every week I'm traveling so much that maybe it is better to wait until returning home. Will it be properly updated by the 8th or 9th?

My FF is still working, but it is from March. Is there some reason that it requires an update?

Of course the cat image is understandable, but I quoted the earlier post with an image from a room with a workout machine and another maybe inside a garage. Does nobody else see this?

Those images are quite random and not at all about 4K or any monitors. Are you PUI or something?

I don't know why it should be so complicated. There are hundreds of companies that will make you blinds. Many are small and family owned rather than corporate. Obviously if you want to be a Joe Vila that is another thing.

20% is significant. 10% matters. I'm not sure about perceptual measurements, but if one batch takes 75 minutes vs. 60 minutes, that's 15 minutes gained. Intel had 5GHz in 2018, so maybe 4.5GHz without the anti-malware would be equal.

I need best possible single thread performance with the Windows 10 security junk. Isn't the speed close to proportional for the single thread?

I gave up after a couple minutes of a circle rotating. I suppose it is normal to download a half gig just on the front page nowadays.

I'm concerned about the speeds dropping and heat increasing with increasing cores. I can live with a few extra cores so long as it can clock to 5+GHz on air, but I don't want a crazy power drain or unstable, exotic setup. ;)

I was thinking about CPUs 16 months ago, but the maleficent Meltdown and Spectator dimmed my hopes of gaining enough improvements to be worth the hassle. Now that Windows 7 is coming to an end soon, I'm looking at new systems again. Have there been improvements against the anti-malware impact...

It was some years ago, but the 3rd day blinds made some "blackout" shades. They are really just an opaque blind, compared to the ones that let through diffused light. I keep them closed all the time for obvious reasons.

It's mental month.

Buchner, Buchner...

I wonder if it is like the Windows 10 plan, constantly trying to make updates whether you like it or not.

Adapting cruise control is all over the place in 2018+ cars, even in a cheap rental vehicle I had this year. So is remote start. The software doesn't lock up displays though. Telsa has been around a mere few years compared to the established makes like Toyota and Volkswagen group making 10...

Are they out of phase or just right is on the left side of the room? If the latter don't you notice the violins and instruments not in the right place or is this for video?

502 Bad Gateway

Orthodox Easter is this Sunday. ;)

I think much of the remote stuff requires cell service, but I may be wrong. Usually that can be disconnected or disabled as it requires some kind of cell plan to be activated. I read that the Telsa and some others want to require the driver to use a cell phone instead of an RFID key in some...

All the unnecessary computer crap in cars has gone too far and is too integrated.

It's the Skype in Outlook 365 ProPlus. We can't use Goggle for some global legal/political reasons.

I don't interact directly with any governments in my current role.

Or HR or Finance. :(

The garbage we are supposed to use for all meetings on a daily basis. :mad: Supposedly everything is in the clouds. I have about 25 meetings scheduled per week.

Skype suuuucks!

We've had too many bad tornados lately, but it seems to be calming down. I should probably be somewhere else. However, there were numerous cancellations.

I think the room would have to be rather dark.

I have an 8GB one and it sucks. Lately I have been using small MP3 device that also has the Blu-tooth. Mostly I just use wires, so it lasts almost 24 hours. The main issue is that the fonts are very small, but at least it is OLED. The old SanDisk OLED players were better.

Assuming he paid for 5 years of it in 2016, it will keep running a while.

SSD is still expensive for a reasonable quantity of storage. I have 12x10TB of HDDs in my main NaSD, 13x8TB in the secondary, and a bunch of extra arrays off in the central zone. I don't even know how to replace them with SSDs other than a homemade server or maybe the FS3017. A few years ago...

RIP...

You don't have one at all? How is that possible?

I doubt it.

You can pore over WD financials to see where the redundancies were, but the merger was a long time ago. Even before the merger the WD and Hitachi buildings were literally right next to each other in Thailand for example. All the drives have been made by WD for years now. You need to get over...

I keep receiving similar messages with varying threats. It's even more annoying than my Japanese toe nail fungus problem. The entire text is actually an image. Unfortunately the messages come from my own email address so if I block it, I cannot send myself emails. :(

The Hitachi NAS drives are discontinued. You'd have to buy a WD Red (5400) or Pro (7200). The Seagate alternatives are the IronWolves. The newer 8TB drives have been taken off helium, so you need 10TB to get the cool running drives.

I recall him buying some poorly made headphones not too long ago. Was it this thread? https://www.storageforum.net/forum/threads/mp3-player-rant.5587/

Wow, you must really like film and have a large room for that. How many lumens does it take to make a bright image at that humongous size?

Well that only happens at SF, so it is not normal. :( Anyway, the imperialist system of units is so bogus I'm amazed it still exists. I'll try to remember to use cm or text inches in the future.

That is like comparing pears to grapes.

Meh, no impact. :D

HGST was purchased by WD years ago. They just did not change the name for a while due to the positive reputation of HGST in the enterprise market. Some of the 8TB drives are now atmospheric rather than helium filled. Given that 14TB is now the high standard, I would be looking at 10TB for...

The link was there at some point. It's a different type of gremlin from SF. ;) I suppose you feel that I used the wrong symbolism for inches? I saw some with various sizes up to the 88 inches.

Samsung and LG make large TVs with some variations of the QLED or OLED. I really would like to know what is not good about them. Is it just the logistics?

Do people still use projectors at home? I thought they made TVs over 85' diagonally nowadays.

Well, if one nails the Ferrari with the electric sedan then the latter will likely stop accelerating. :LOL: I'm still not convinced about the incident. I prefer to rent a large vehicle like the Navigator, Yukon XL or Escalade ESV since there are so many crazy drivers out there.

Consumer vehicles have an accelerator pedal and a brake pedal. This is not an engineering problem. :) Of course there are various slang terms as well and a vehicle may also have a clutch pedal, parking brake pedal, etc.

It is RAM.
