    It sounds like Mobo or.psu to me too. Leaning towards Mobo if you're having random socket failures

    You can but you'd be running single channel which is generally frowned upon. If you had two sticks of 8 and they work together and new sticks don't then new sticks are bad. If your old sticks don't work in one of the slots then you did something bad pulling them out

    Health Problems

    Haven't lost much weight yet on intermittent fasting but my body has adjusted to it since I've done it for a few weeks now. The only issue is sometimes around 9-10 I have to eat because I get really low blood sugar. I just have to eat that much later the next day. Going to the Dr is out of the...

    VALORANT - Riot Games

    Encrypting/Decrypting memory on the fly would be such an extreme overhead that the game would suffer greatly. Also I'm not a game engineer, but I'd be really surprised if game devs are managing memory at that level at all ouside of some specific cases

    No the OW players are terrible. Timthetatman is terrible. Even the washed up CSGO guys are terrible. They have this playstyle of baiting every single fucking game and its BORING AS FUCK

    VALORANT - Riot Games

    They recently said anyone streaming valorant can have drops enabled (takes about ten minutes to turn active), so that's nice. I was watching Hiko a bit but goddamn he started getting annoying as fuck and super condescending to people. The problem is valorant isn't a very good game to spectate.

    My wife and kids are home everyday too, but I do have a dedicated office. It's also the playroom, but as long as I'm here they can't use it. I just pop in headphones and drown out the noise. Because a 3 and 5 year old can be loud as fuck.

    I definitely am more productive at home. I think because I end up tossing on headphones with twitch on and just put my head down and work. In the office I'm often bombarded by people coming by a lot. I don't feel comfortable putting twitch on at work, etc. Plus I'm saving two hours of commuting...

    Yeah I talked about it in another thread but the company (Dell, not just the EMC subsidiary) wanted to go 50% work from home by 2020. Right now we've got something like 127k+ employees working from home. There's still really old people in charge that don't understand how people can be...

    Twitch.tv

    Millions of people watch twitch every second, and it's really easy to support someone on twitch. There are no weird porn ads popping up when you click things and everything is so seamless. The tube/hub sites are much different. Don't forget. Lots of dudes go to Hooters for the chicks

    I don't buy new.pc parts very often and I feel guilty even building it in this current situation. Don't be too jealous. I felt jealous just buying a 2070s and not buying a 2080ti! But this last year I took stock of whats important to me and my PC comfort was one of them. My current PC is still...

    That's true on all accounts. I'm glad our work is flexible where if you have kids they say work whatever hours you can, even if it's super late instead. We've had some troubles with no one being in the office but we could get away with going in once in awhile. Only problem I have is my kids...

    The problem with their entire logic is it boils down to "Don't worry just trust us" Yeah. No. How do we know you aren't going to "accidentally" enable backdoor features and start sending data back to China, or worse .. the US govt. I'm a software engineer, I'm not a retard.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    If anything I think not only are companies waking up to the fact that 99% of our work can be done remotely, but employees are waking up to the fact that it's more.productive.for them too. Dell had a goal to have 50% of work be remote by 2020. 99% of the company is remote right now. Ada is...

    About a week so I can't answer much of that. Its heavier and more durable than any chair I've ever used though. The multi tilt thing feels exactly like the mechanism in a car seat and how it tilts the seat I just bought a wd black nvme drive for $130. Why would you suggest SATA or m.2 to...

    Son turns 5 Friday. Kind of sucks he can t see anyone on his birthday. We tried to go a bit above and beyond for gifts and stuff, but it still kind of depresses me.
