I started the day with my fan spinning but the system still reaching high temps, so this Christmas will be spent cleaning the inside of my computer, Merry Christmas everyone.

Me and my brothers decided to spend Christmas evening playing games together. Unfortunately, one's too young for quite a few we could have done, and the other was only okay with games no-one else really wanted to play. We then played War Thunder, which (for me, and most people I've spoken about it with) gets boring pretty quickly. Eventually we opted to switch to Planetside 2, which took ages to install for those of us that didn't have it, and then was worse than I remembered it being from the beta when I could eventually play it (at that point it also turned out that one brother couldn't get it to not crash and the other was finished playing for the day). I might have been doing something incorrectly, but it seemed like I was just running (or driving) to places where I'd be killed before I could do anything useful, or standing in a herd of people shooting from behind a rock in the futile hope that I'd hit something before a tank shelled me.
All of this could have been prevented if the middle brother didn't think liking games no-one else really cares for wasn't because he has better taste, but instead because he's unwilling to try games most people find more fun than his favourite three, or, perhaps even better, if PC games offered 3-way split screen, instead of forcing us all into online games he was actually willing to play.

Just redownloading the Catalyst 14.12 driver... For some reason, the updater did not download the file completely and now I´ll have to do it again from AMD´s site.

Right as I actually need it, my only properly-shielded long 3.5mm phone cable's gone missing. I don't know if saving the money of buying a new one (since stuff in this house goes missing forever) is worth dealing with constant ringing as the cable I'm using in replacement passes every single part of my desk that generates interference. Ringing is bad enough I can hear it even with tinnitus as bad as mine.
At least the signal isn't precious enough that the aluminum heads on this cable is anything of an issue. Would still much rather have that long, shielded cable with gold heads over aluminum and no shielding. Want to have one with nickel heads instead of gold heads but you take what you're given and nickel would be a little overkill transferring a signal from a laptop's onboard audio to a desktop's onboard audio.
in a perfect world we would all be piles of sand with no ability to form coherent bodies of body

Man, I have some shitty luck. I sliced a sizable chunk out of my knuckle using a vegetable slicer last night :/

^ Better deal than Verizon, could you imagine what they would charge for such a tier? Now only if that and Google fiber can expand and give Verizon Fios a run for their money.

Isn't that over a hundred times as fast as average broadband in US? If 10 gigabit is tens of times as fast as average broadband, that means that the average is somewhat below 1 gigabit, implying multi-hundred-megabit speeds on average. Do any residential/small-business users really have that fast internet already?
They sell to home/small business, but they compared to average broadband, or including academic/business? Is each academic counted as one or multiple connections? 12-29-2014, 03:04 PM
Average internet in the US is below 10mbps. 10gbps is not just tens of times, but a thousand times faster!
