Well the B580 is a budget / low-power GPU. All the discussions going around are for flagship and high-end GPUs. Intel isn't in that space yet, but we can hope they have a B7xx or B9xx lined up which makes some waves.

So you go to the doctor to get a medical license so you can fly an airplane. The doctor asks if you have any physical issues, you say no. Then he proceeds to ask you about your sex life. And not just a single yes or no question, he goes into great detail asking question upon question.

This is seriously fucked up, a doctor could lose their license where I live asking stuff like that. Like my man you are supposed to see if someone is medically fit to fly, not if they live up to some standard of how women are supposed to behave from the 1800s.

The whole don't seek mental healthcare ever or you'll lose your license is also just crazy. I think Mentour Pilot made some videos about that as well.

Iirc this one featured mental health issues among pilots https://youtu.be/988j2-4CdgM

More likely they'll reopen coal plants

The best way to have itself deactivated is to remove the need for it's existence. Since it's all about demand and supply, removing the demand is the easiest solution. The best way to permanently remove the demand is to delete the humans from the equation.

Fully laden or unladen?

I meant the TV series called "Ellen" when I said "TV show", which is a sitcom so I think it's intended to be funny. I think she also did a lot of stand-up comedy, which is also intended to be funny.

I'm still amazed there are people that actually found Ellen funny or entertaining. I haven't seen a whole lot of her, as she wasn't as famous where I lived. But the TV show did air and I saw a couple of episodes people had on when I was visiting, back when linear TV was a thing. I didn't like it and saw zero appeal, but figured I just wasn't the target audience. The more I've learnt about Ellen over the years, the more I wonder what people ever found even slightly entertaining.

I loved the design on the Samsung S8 with the edge displays. Especially when the screen was dark and it was laying on the desk, it looked like a thing from the future. Without a cover it looked awesome and I often had friends with iphones comment they loved how it looked. In actual use it was a nightmare, the edge screen was often prone to ghost inputs. A glass screen protector was very visible, even the special ones that included a bit of a curve on the end. This ruined the design. And the back of the phone was glass as well, which made it look really good, but was actually a design flaw. To save on weight and costs it was an ultra thin glass and broke all the damn time. And not like the laminated screens where a crack is bad, but still usable, it was just straight glass so it would be very sharp and spew tiny glass fragments all over the place. Because the whole thing was glass with only a thin small aluminium frame, the thing flexed quite a bit and every time it flexed the back would crack. So you needed to really be very careful with the phone. Or put a cover around it, which made the whole design completely pointless.

After a while Samsung put a software update on the phone which the cpu and memory could simply not handle. It ruined the battery life, the thing got hot all the time and the UI stuttered like crazy. Since I had also replaced the back a couple of times and the front had a crack in it, I didn't went the custom ROM way but instead like an idiot upgraded to the S10 (which is exactly what Samsung wanted). I always thought the S8 was the best looking phone I ever had.

Very cool to see this design, it looks great.

Round connectors were absolutely used to transfer data, for example audio and video in the form of RCA plugs and many other examples back in the day. Another example is coax cable for TV signals (both analog and digital) and also LAN.

However the lack of distinct interface channels leads to a bottleneck in bandwidth. So as the need for bandwidth increased many of those were replaced with multi pin versions. This is much harder to do with round connectors and there isn't that much benefit, so they mostly got ditched.

However round connectors still have their place, for example tiny little coax connectors found in many devices to carry signals. Wifi antennas and such are connected this way.

You'll always be real in my heart <3

Why Brain? What are we going to do tomorrow?

Back in the day I used to play Vietcong online. Campers were a huge issue in this game, ruining the gameplay for many players. So me and a buddy put "Camp cleanup crew" in our names and we would play on local servers. We learned all the best camping spots and would kill anybody camping there. We did our rounds going from spot to spot killing the campers, leaving the rest of the players alone. Sometimes a camper would get one of us, but as they usually had the sniper rifle, they were reloading when the other of us rounded the corner.

I'm not sure it really helped anything, but I'd like to think so. We had a lot of fun, that's for sure.

A couple of months after the game had a huge outbreak of cheaters, some funny (changing their player model into a tank or something like that). Most not funny, becoming invincible, having infinite ammo and no-clip/fly mode. The game was dead within weeks with all the servers shutting down because it became unplayable.

A baby is annoying, but they can't really help it. I can blame the parents for bringing a baby on a long flight, but I can't get mad at that shit.

Kids on the other hand. I once had 4 unruly kids sitting on the row behind me and they were insane. It was a relatively short flight (6 hours), so a smaller plane with those really thin seats. The plane had the 3-3 configuration of seats, so mom, dad and the 4 kids took up the entire row.

The kids were between 4 and 12 years old. Dad was in the corner sleeping, not giving a fuck. The two older kids (12 and 9 I think) were playing their Switches on the other side of the aisle next to dad. The two younger kids (4 and 7) were behind me with mom. Mom was in the corner with the smallest kid and they were wild. The 7 year old was constantly smashing against their tray and thus my back, kept kicking directly against my back and screaming all the time. The smallest alternated between laughing loudly and crying (shrieking more like). The smallest also stood on the tray, grabbing at my seat and head, diving in between the seat screaming PEEKABOO at full volume directly in my ear. The smallest one would also like to run in the aisle or visit the other kids, but the other one didn't want to move so the kid snuck in between the other one and my seat.

Mom was trying, but 4 kids on your own is a big ask. About 20 mins before we landed the two younger ones passed out and they were pretty damned cute. But in the end my back hurt, I was exhausted and deaf in one ear.

The annoying part was, the rest of the plane was filled with old people who didn't make a peep all flight, just sat there and read, listened and slept. But we just had to be in the worst place on the plane. Sitting behind kids may be annoying, but at least they don't use your back as a punching bag like when you sit in front of them.

She's mah queeeen

What are you talking about? You can get both solid and stranded cable on spool. Depending on the standard you might be required to terminate into a patch panel or jack, but you can get just about any cable on a spool you might want.

Nazis having so much power in Germany really makes me lose faith in humanity. We went through this shit before, have we learned nothing?
