General American Politics Thread
BTGBullseye replied to ThePest179's topic in Serious Topic Discussion
#59 was the #1 issue for my entire family, and why we voted for him. -
Can't we all just get along?
BTGBullseye replied to Selous Templar's topic in Serious Topic Discussion
Just an FYI to anyone I may have offended in the past... I am very blunt, and don't change my beliefs based on information that I don't consider to be proof. If that has caused offense to people, I am sorry, none was intended. -
Dead Game News: (Asheron's Call, Ghost In The Shell, Hawken)
BTGBullseye replied to Ross Scott's topic in Other Videos
This just in... They might be adding an exemption to the DMCA for dead online games... https://torrentfreak.com/gamers-want-dmca-exemption-for-abandoned-online-games-171221/ -
A very real threat to everybody in Poland, even Ross
BTGBullseye replied to BTGBullseye's topic in Serious Topic Discussion
The IP address provided by ISPs generally are what's called "dynamic", meaning they change on a semi-regular basis. Ross might get transferred to an IP address that a pirate used last year, and have his computers confiscated because of it. He doesn't have to do anything at all for this to negatively impact him. -
1. Trump can't control what the FCC does, and Obama put Pai in there. 2. NK isn't a real threat to anyone except South Korea. 3. The limited selection of candidates is because the American public has been taught to pick people based on what they say at the time, not what their history shows them to be. Research on the background of the candidates is ridiculed because "it's such a nerdy thing to do", and incomplete backgrounds portrayed by mass media are all the more that the public wants. This results in a lack of information about the candidates, and an attempt to misinform people into voting a particular way. (like all the major media saying that Clinton would win by a landslide until the final hours of the election proved otherwise)

Please read this... https://torrentfreak.com/police-seize-hundreds-of-computers-over-pirate-movie-download-in-2013-171125/ The gist of it is, copyright trolls are actively and 'legally' seizing computers of random people based on unconfirmed IP addresses obtained 4 years ago. This is apparently a rather common practice nowadays within the Polish legal system. They rarely find any illegal content on the seized systems, and the people who are losing their systems will likely never see them, or the contents of the system, again.

Yeah, something looks weird about that diagram... That almost looks like a software descriptor, and not a hardware one. (for indirect processing, like in a VM or other emulator of some sort)

This is a straight-up copy of someone else's collected info that I found on another forum. I am placing it here to help prevent the loss of this info to time, and the ravages of internet censorship, or whatever else comes up. NONE OF THIS COMES FROM ME!!! It comes from here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=81743.0 Background: Omron switches are the common by far used in mice, however the naming scheme and rumors abound about what each does and is. Here I'll try and document as much as I can and dispel some of the mysteries. This took hours to compile, reading websites, pdf's and more, it contains all you should need to know. Note: Omron uses two naming methods. While I have not confirmed it, I suspect the numbers are different simply because one number is meant for a machine to install while the others are meant for individual sale/retail. The machine ones probably come assembled in trays or strips so the machine can feed them in quickly. This is backed up by the Asus ROG Spatha mouse which uses a machine numbers on the switches inside the mouse, but retail naming on the two switches included (this mouse allows the user to change them). This guide covers both, but right or wrong about naming reasons, this is how they will be referred to in order to distinguish them. D2F Switches: The switches by Omron are all designated D2F, from there it gets a bit more complex. We'll discuss retail switches first, as once you understand them, you can more easily understand the machine switches. D2F vs D2FC indicates origin and more. (Important!) D2F vs D2F -01 (can be with or without the dash) The next batch of numbers or lack of them is usually an 01, this indicates the spring material. Spring rates (-F) Lifespan Will be labeled as D2F -01 (10M) Other random numbers and letters in the switch part number Example D2F L3 -T Machine switch Numbers Other Switch Brands Popular Mice and what switches they use Sources

Which bit depth are you talking about? Seg Descriptors have 8-32 bit sizes.

That does not result in an actually secure connection, only a superficially secure one. (it appears to be secure, but is only as secure as regular HTTP)

ROSS'S GAME DUNGEON: LIFE IS STRANGE DEMO
BTGBullseye replied to Ross Scott's topic in Ross's Game Dungeon
Considering all the talk about getting stranded on a desert island... Anyone up for it? I am. I'm ready to go get lost at a moment's notice with all of you to be there to watch me walk into the densest, snake infested, spider crawling interior forest, all so I can build my own shelter my way after everyone else rejects my plans. -
ROSS'S GAME DUNGEON: LIFE IS STRANGE DEMO
BTGBullseye replied to Ross Scott's topic in Ross's Game Dungeon
Ross, I'm glad you played this instead of me... I wouldn't have made it through the second 'bathroom shooting' scene. -
That's about $5116.24/mo more than I get per month...

While there is some appeal to using that interpretation, all of the "AI war" scenarios are stuck with a major problem... That is that the AI either has human-like emotional capacity combined with a glitch or some form of abuse, or that it comes to the illogical conclusion that it must eradicate our species for some reason. As I am unwilling to go into further detail at this time, (headaches really take the fun out of debate thinking) I'll leave others to continue the discussion.

I can say with 100% certainty that that is 99% of the problem.

Part 1: Part 2: Single shooter has been proven so many times that it is baffling that anybody still believes there was more than one. Please do a lot more research before believing the conspiracies.

Sounds like a game worth "rebooting". Great review Ross.

I'd suggest giving a look through this list, and see if it's in there... http://www.myabandonware.com/browse/theme/sci-fi-futuristic-1t/

I have already brought this issue up with the admins, and I don't think the guy who built the site actually knows how to use SSL. (he seemed to think it was already secured, and I knew nothing)

Excellent episode!

Congrats on getting married! And don't stress on the preparations!

FYI, Seasonic is riding on their old reputation... They actually average the same fail rate now as the other brands. (and have for the past 10 years) Some of the best brands right now are Rosewill, LEPA, Antec, Raidmax, EVGA, and Seasonic. If you see them on the shelf, they are most likely to survive for longer. Make sure to pad your wattage requirements though. (if you pad by 100-150w, it averages double the lifespan of a PSU that just meets your wattage requirements; if you pad by 200w, it averages triple the lifespan)
