    Apple/Mac Thread

    iPhone 7 is looking like a dud if the rumours pan out. Guess I'm waiting for the 8. Damnit, why are they so slow to implement years-old technology?

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

    I'd venture a guess that if they don't find anything immediately disturbing, they aren't gonna dig. If you pique their curiosity? Who knows.

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

    They don't have a sense of humour because they're trying to gauge your responses. If you're telling jokes, it's usually either because you aren't taking the interview seriously, or because you're nervous and have something to hide. Either way, you're fucking with them, and they don't appreciate...

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

    This is a given. Look at how many of the attacks of late have been preceded by rants on Facebook/Twitter. If you've been a dumbass in public, yep, it counts against you (because this is something that we should need to point out, instead of it being common sense, right?). And yeah, places like...

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

    Credit report (at least up here) rarely factors in to a clearance unless they can prove that it's a financial issue that could be used by someone to subvert you into giving up information. A few late payments are irrelevant as long as they're dealt with in the end.

    Just bought an Asus RT-AC3100 to try to fill a dead spot in the house. I think this is a bit overkill. Holy shit, this thing is a beast.

    Apple/Mac Thread

    And speaking of iPhone, the rumours for the 7 look completely underwhelming, and the focus seems to be on new design and features for the 8 instead. I'm gonna have to wait another year or two to replace my (somewhat broken) 6+? Really?

    Apple/Mac Thread

    People who do this should be laughed at and told to fuck off. It's too bad it would be bad for business to do so. I really appreciated the days that you had to put your iPhone in DFU in order to jailbreak. It weeded out the morons fairly efficiently. If you couldn't DFU, jailbreaking was...

    Computer Issues

    What makes you think that it's a RAM issue? If it's because you don't see much "free" memory, don't worry about it unless you also see the amount of cached/available RAM down near 0. "Free" is a bogus term at this point as the OS constantly caches large amounts of memory. 12GB is more than fine...

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    Tried on my wife's old phone, and it is working fine, so yes, looks like my device itself is banned. Fucking annoying. Probably just because of the jailbreak, too.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    This may already have been asked, but I'm too lazy to search. Does Niantic ban based on device ID? I can't see any Pokestops/Gyms/Pokemon on my phone anymore, regardless of which account I'm signed in on. Jailbroken iPhone on the latest app version, but I couldn't see anything in the previous...

    If you don't have plugin install privileges, that doesn't help. And if he had that, he'd probably be able to just download the backup through the vb interface anyway. Work with us here, tyen.

    AMD vs Nvidia: Which is better?

    Well, I had a great experience with my AMD 7970s when I needed to heat up my office. Those things kick out BTUs like nobody's business. Beyond that, I can't say I've ever had an experience that made me say "I refuse to buy nVidia again". Can't say the same about AMD.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Yep. This was a long time coming. I'm surprised they stayed ad-supported as long as they did while simultaneously trying to bring All The Content to compete with Netflix/Amazon/whatever.

    AMD vs Nvidia: Which is better?

    AMD's drivers have been garbage since before they stopped being ATI, but things have gotten much worse since the acquisition. Price/performance is great, sure, but not if your drivers are garbage every single time.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Looks pretty solid. I'm getting tired of playing around with the Aironet I have. As much as it's neat to be able to log in to it and play around with something iOS-like, its performance is garbage. I might just take it out of the picture and use my 2x RT-AC66U in its place.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Uh, okay, so we are no longer worried about performance or tech specs, we're worried about whether or not it goes with the curtains, right? There are no reviews around that I can see. I don't think it's shipped yet (even to reviewers). I'm going to wait and see how it does in real life before I...

    You can, but why? Most AV software will shut down Defender when you install it. More isn't usually better, just slower.

    Oh, fun. Yeah, forget what I said, then. They probably haven't even patched Heartbleed yet. Wait, what company is this again? =D

    Linux OS stuff Thread

    Isn't it better just to do a local (limited) repo at that point and block its access to teh internets? I mean, you still want to have the ability to do a corporate network wide update in case of another huge issue like Heartbleed.

    <Fires of Heaven> WoW Guild - [Horde] [Hyjal-US]

    Cool. Thanks. Appears I already moved my warrior, not my DK as I thought I had, so guess I'm good to go once I get to whatever max level is now.

    <Fires of Heaven> WoW Guild - [Horde] [Hyjal-US]

    I guess the other question that comes to mind is -- is WoW still the absolute UI mod shitfest it was years ago, or is there a good core of stuff that everyone has and that's that?

    <Fires of Heaven> WoW Guild - [Horde] [Hyjal-US]

    Actually, is it even worth moving my other chars over to Hyjal from way back, or should I just level from scratch? Sounds like with all the new stuff in game, the only reason I'd want to move any chars over is the nostalgia.
