AMD CEO: "AMD plans to stay away from developing for the personal computer market because of its volatility" Exclusive: AMD CEO Lisa Su talks about a long-term turnaround - Austin Business Journal I wonder if she is mainly talking about CPUs, or all of their products(video cards too)

The Big12 had some pretty crap-ass TV deals. I don't miss that at all.

Yeah, that was like our 8th or 9th starter already this year. I have no idea how the Royals have stayed in first this long with a total trainwreck of a starting rotation. We only have 1 pitcher that has even thrown 90 innings this year.

Works for me Las Vegas sportsbook deems Royals new World Series favorites

I'd also have to guess that your car is about 100x more likely to get broken into than your home, if you leave your car parked outside in your driveway or the street. Cars get broken into in my neighborhood all the time, but I have yet to hear of a burglary. I'm baffled by the amount of...

The only small tweak that should be made to durability is that your damage shouldn't be reduced until your weapon is in the red/damaged ranged. Starting to knock off damage as soon as you're down to about 85% durability is dumb. I need to get back on track and finish this game off. I've...

Damn son, you're so far out in the boonies that a satellite can't even reach you

I can't imagine using butter with any fatty meat(beef, lamb) is even remotely necessary. I'd consider it with certain types of seafood and possibly chicken breasts though as they are really lean to begin with, they might benefit from it.

My dad has Hughes.net at his lake house, it's the only internet available if you live out in the boonies(other than dialup). It's ok...I wouldn't want to try to game over it(satellite internet has crap latency) or stream HD video but it's perfectly serviceable for web browsing. I think I've...

Missouri wasn't on TV hardly at all really until the B12 formed in 1996 and a new TV deal was struck, so at least the conference games were on TV(good luck seeing non-con games). The Big 8 had their network deal and whichever network it was would show 2 Big 8 games a week, generally Nebraska's...

Ray Donovan starts back up in July. If you haven't watched it yet, you have about 2 weeks to get caught up before Season 3 starts. Well worth it. Leiv Schreiber + Jon Voight = awesome

Never was a big Yes fan, but much respect for doing the theme song to one of the best PC games ever made

Yep, been paying $15 a month for a Seedbox for about 2 years now because of that. Ridiculous upload speed.

Yeah we give a 10% discount if you have a monitored burglar and fire alarm. So you might save $100-$200 a year on your insurance, but the monitoring service is probably going to cost $400+ per year. Alarm company salesmen love to overstate how much you will save on insurance.

$75 a month for 300/5 with Time Warner. Time Warner is still a little bitch with their upload speeds. It's funny what TW has done here in KC 2011 - Google Fiber announces they are coming to KC. TW ups my 25/5 to 50/5 for "free". I'm paying $65 a month for standalone service at this point...

You have to look at both the speed, and the latency 1600 mhz 7-7-7-18 might be the same price as 2400mhz 11-13-13-31, but if you want 2400mhz with the lowest latency possible, it's going to cost you. A lot. On Newegg, for example, the lowest latency 2400mhz 16GB of ram is 9-11-11-31 and...

I honestly don't even know why there are candles and sconces in the game...it's not like there is any stealth component to the game where darkness is preferred. Light em all, keep them lit, and don't let Geralt interact with them.

I'm also in the "not worth it" camp. I'm an insurance agent and our office probably has about 1500 homes insured(all across the city, anywhere from inner-city to suburbs to rural/unincorporated areas) and we have about 1 burglary claim a year on average. The odds are just incredibly...

I honestly don't really mind the current era of big money in college sports. Growing up in the 80s, I couldn't watch the Missouri Tigers on television. We are the only D1 football team in a state with 2 large TV markets(KC & ST Louis) and they just were not on TV at all, anywhere. I bet I...

...in gaming Faster RAM can definitely make a difference in many business/productivity uses, but does mostly nothing for gaming. That's why no one is too excited about DDR4, it does almost nothing for games(yet) I've seen benchmarks where 3D rendering with Maya can increase performance...

Metal sheds are stupid cheap for the amount of space you get ~$200: Amazon.com : Arrow Shed BW54-A Brentwood 5-Feet by 4-Feet Steel Storage Shed : Outdoor Storage : Patio, Lawn Garden ~$300 Amazon.com : Arrow Newburgh Shed, 8 by 6 Feet : Storage Sheds : Patio, Lawn Garden Or if you...

no Games against common opponents and each other last year (5 games) Mauk 7TD 0 Int 939 yds 172 yards rushing 4.52 YPC Dobbs 9TD 6 int 1077 393 yds rushing 4.3 YPC So Dobbs is more prone to turnovers, and is a less efficient runner(even though he runs a LOT more) And they were...

It wasn't really that close. We had a 2-score lead for the entire fourth quarter. It was only close in the first half, and this was AT Tennessee. Count on another 10+ pt loss @ Missouri this year. Our team will be as good, if not better than last year. QB should have a large step forward...

I see Tennessee's season hinging on game #2 against Oklahoma. If they can beat Oklahoma then they could definitely pull off a 8-4. maybe even 9-3 type season. Drop the game to Oklahoma and a young teams confidence is shaken early and they're probably struggling to get bowl eligible again...

That *could* be automated/computerized. Its pretty complex, but there's a ton of complex shit in the world that is computerized that you would think that only a human could do correctly. Of course, it would require having some custom software written and that might be more of an ordeal and...

2015 NBA Draft Picks by conference both 1st and 2nd round picks: SEC - 10 ACC - 10 PAC12- 7 B10 - 5 B12 - 2

I'm no expert by any means, but the best "short" cigar I've ever had was an Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story. Used to smoke them a lot, but probably haven't had one in 5-6 years at least now. They used to be a little hard to find here locally back in the late 90s, but I'm sure they're all...

As someone who has been watching college football for 25+ years, I honestly can't ever remember Ohio State being flat-outbad, I can't say the same for Alabama, Notre Dame, Florida, Nebraska, Florida State, Miami, Texas, Oklahoma or a lot of other historically elite teams over that time peroid...

are you Oregon?

Keurig coffee maker - used every week day when I'm in a hurry before work French press coffee maker - use it on weekends when I have more time Vitamix Blender - probably use it once a week or so to make a smoothie or blend up a sauce for dinner Ice Cream maker - bought it last winter but have...

I caught this one on sale for $29 last winter, it's pretty nice: Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker with Extra Freezer Bowl | Williams-Sonoma I think you'll see sales in the off-season(I still make ice cream in the winter, screw it), but right now you probably won't find a great price on it anywhere

LOL Louisville to debut wild new uniforms against Auburn in season opener | AL.com

Went to the grocery store yesterday and all of their half & half and heavy whipping cream was like 75% off because it was all due to expire in about 3 days. Just about bought them out of the stuff, time to make a shitload of home made ice cream & frozen custard. Hell yeah.

Is there any easy way to deal with the rock/earth elemental guys other than just slowly working them down with your sword? I'm level 25 or so, I hit a normal enemy for like 400+ and elementals for about 50-75. Takes FOREVER to kill them. It's not hard, just really, really monotonous hacking...

Fuck man, that's about $55,000 a year(assuming it was full time) for doing jack-all, something a recent highschool grad would be easily qualified for. I'd say your pay was WAY more than fair. Jobs around here pay about $12-$14 an hour for that type of data entry work.

Yeah, competition is good. I'm really worried their share of the GPU market is going to slip away just like their CPU market did over the past decade.

Gone for what reason? Being forced out/fired, or just moving on to a different school of his own chosing?

Nvidia smells the blood in the water, thinking about a killing blow Nvidia is considering a price-cut of high-end graphics cards | KitGuru

I definitely don't expect Bama to win a national title 3 out of every 4 or 5 years, but I think they'll be a serious contender every year that Saban is there, he'll probably get another title or two before he goes(even though that might take another 5 or 10 years). I could see him retiring with...

An average over the last 10 years is relevant. Yes, Texas and USC were dominant 10 years ago...at that one snapshot in time of 2005, but looking at their average season over the past 10 years gives you a different view of them which is a little more accurate. No single season is indicative...
