Maybe you can trade one of them for a new sense of humor. :owneddnce:

You still have both of yours?

So the sprinkler controller that was installed when my house was built died last right before I blew out the system for the year. It was a Weathermatic unit and 10 years old. I only have 4 zones, but have delusions of maybe adding a 5th (eventually). It looks like I can get a digital...

That sound you just heard was the humor going way over your head.

I didn't say it was new. However, no one else posted here previously (that I'm aware of), so... :bomb: The best part might just be at 5m30s, not 4m30s

I haven't used it, so I have no opinion. I've read the screen is not as good as Samsung's OLED displays.

I bought Windows 7 and 8 keys on the HardOCP forum from a few different sellers in the FS/FT forum. I never had an issue with the keys. The same is probably true for Windows 10. I haven't been there in a long time. My account has probably gotten deactivated again.

I stumbled across this today and had a good laugh.

As long as you like LG's not so good mobile OLED displays... :frusty: Edit: The G6 still has a LCD, but the V30 doesn't.

Yes, it's home built. I have a writeup on it somewhere over at AVSforum. It sounds quite good if I say so myself. Better than all my previous subwoofer solutions that I've tried.

What's an Ellie?

How about: https://www.techbargains.com/deal/82903/microsoft-windows-10-deals I've seen it posted every now and again...

I'm guessing he wants to save money.

No idea... I haven't bought any.

Yes, I was watching the Blu-ray at home with my dual 21" subs with 4kW behind them that are dialed in just right. Watching this in a typical commercial theater would have been a travesty (in terms of LFE). Bass makes you sick? :scratch: Bummer... :(

Deepwater Horizon was quite the LFE fest. The subs were getting a prolific workout. I can't think of another movie with such an extended sequence of predominant and near continuous Low Frequency Effects. The movie was pretty good too.

If you carry a cell phone with you (even in the house) if seems unnecessary.

You're such an optimist. Sorry to hear about MRG's passing.

And what color dye are you using?

You concluded this based on his lack of posting?

:erm: Internet access for the office.

What you do with dongs on your own time is your business. Not something we need to know about.

30x the bandwidth for a fraction of the price made the decision pretty easy.

So I got two new (at least to me) sets of HE-560 yesterday and a balanced XLR cable back from HiFiMan. This cable is wired correctly this time. These HE-560's are considerably better than the last two with regards to low frequency rattle, but are not perfect. They each have a very slight...

I'd tell you, but you won't remember anyhow. :rofl:

There probably will be as soon as Samsung rolls out the 970/980 drives.

Which one? Your mouth?

Why would it create excessive heat? Is the power efficiency worse?

Why do you specifically need SATA M2?

So, just like the others then.

Well, it's a slower interface. I'm not sure your second statement is absolutely correct in a proprietary application like a laptop mainboard if the maker only planned to offer the laptop with NVMe.

It will come activated. No, that software won't prevent Windows updates. That happens automatically if you have an Internet connection.

I think this is safely going to fall into If you have to ask... land.

Why? Install Classic Shell and Spybot Anti-Beacon and it's pretty much fine.

Buy one and find out.

So the extra few oz from one laptop vs. another will make the plane overweight?

I'd suggest carrying water into the desert instead of any laptop regardless of how light it is, but I might be missing something.

I wouldn't call 2.7lb vs. 2.2lb much heavier, but you may feel differently.

Oh, you mean Kaby Lake... Why didn't you just say so? My Dell XPS 13 has a Kaby Lake-R i7-8550U. Why are you stuck on laptops from non-typical laptop makers?

Well, I can't find any sign of a Kraby Lake CPU on Intel's site...

So that's a knock-off Imtel CPU?

Might have been. There's no US IT people, and no one on the European IT team (that covers the US too) seems to know anything about the box. It's sort of all a mystery.

Only if they were doing a "lets run this flat out and see what happens" test. If they had a planned precision burn and got more than expected, it's not.

You got me... :scratch:

Yeah, we did and it worked fine. IT worked with us and we have it partially working now. But, still no clarity on what the MetroNID is. IT had us connect the cable modem to a different box and the MetroNID is no longer in the loop best I can tell. Unfortunately, we're only getting about...

Congrats? :scratch:

We have an Accedian Networks MetroNID TE in our office in front of our Cisco 2921 router on our internet and I can't decipher what it is. It's the first box in the chain of networking equipment with Ethernet coming in and going out and onto the Cisco 2921 (router). The Accedian website doesn't...

Luckily theaters aren't the only places with them. Also, there are people you can see about your phobias.

:erm: No one is forcing you to go to those "security nighmares". Whatever that means. :scratch: Is the security for you or for everyone else? :eek4:

They're in some fast food places, theaters, etc. They have a website to find them. https://www.coca-colafreestyle.com/find-freestyle-locations/
