Yeah, it's probably the best-selling i7 processor model, doubt they put it on sale often. Usually about the best you can find is a good sale on a processor + mobo combo, but almost never the processor by itself. Regardless though, Microcenter stores will be cheaper than almost any sale you...

Ended up picking a Kentucky - Virginia final. Will be the most boring title game ever, the #1 and #2 defensive teams in the tournament. Final score will be about 53-45

Yeah, if its candy its going to need to have chocolate involved somehow to give me any interest in eating it. Stuff that's just pure sugar + artificial flavoring does nothing for me My lack of interest in candy might help the fact that I've only had 1 cavity in my life(and I'm pushing 40)...

Am I the only person that never really liked candy? I think I stopped trick-or-treating as a kid around age 10 when I realized that I'd go, and then just give all my candy to my friends. As far as sweets go, I can't think of a single candy item that I would take over a baked good (cookie...

Cooking Thread - Recipes in first post - Page 259 I make 2 variations of that chicken salad recipe. The one listed in the post there(with the couple small alterations I mentioned), and I also do a greek chicken salad where you basically just take that same recipe and sub out the celery and...

You can give access to individual files, general folders, whatever you want. No one has access to my uploads folder that is the dump folder for everthing, my extended family only has access to the folder of kid pictures after they've been sorted a bit.

Dropbox can basically be set up a few different ways. No automatic uploads, automatic but only when on wifi, automatic on data or wifi for files under 50MB(wont upload big videos) and automatic on data or wifi no size limit. After you set that up, you never have to even touch the app, or...

Big college basketball fan,* I'm guessing *since December '14

I'm up to about 140K population, and I've built everything there is to build, every monument and everything. My city is spread out quite a bit, I've purchased all 25 tiles in my region and I've built in parts of about 12 of them so far. I'd say maybe 4 of the tiles are REALLY dense, another 8...

LOL

Tell him to pony up for at least the 128GB Samsung 840 Evo SSD. 64 GB SSD is tiny, you're not going to be able to put much more than just Windows on that(since you ideally want to keep SSDs about half empty for maximum performance) If that busts his budget, drop the water cooling. If he's...

Well, Mich St was the 2nd highest ranked team without a top 25 win until 2 days ago(SMU doesn't have one, they're 0-2). The Spartans kept hanging around the bottom of the top 25 most of the year despite not having 1 good win all year until this weekend. Their name alone kept them ranked a...

I was slightly off about Georgia, I'll admit it. They only had to win 1 game in the SEC tournament, not 2 to get in. I thought they would have to get to the SEC title game(and lose) to get in, but they only had to get to the Semi-final to make it in as one of the final bubble teams. The...

one of the best mods I've found so far Steam Workshop :: Extended Road Upgrade - Upgrade between one- and two-way roads! Allows you to change any road to one way, or back again, just by dragging over and already existing road in the direction you want it to flow. Damn nice not having to...

I've always stated that I could eat chips and salsa indefinitely and never get full. I need to test that theory some day

True, the ncaa tournament is a total crapshoot. I think only one or twice in the past 20 years has the top #1 seed won it all, although Kentucky did ita couple years ago

Nice build, shouldn't have to do anything to it for the next 5 years other than upgrading video cards every few years

Kentucky is going to lose, they should have done it in the regular season just to get it out of their systems. 5 teams(before this year) have gone undefeated through the regular season since 1976, none have won the national title. The last to do it was Indiana in 76 2014 Wichita State...

Definitely needs more hobos under the highway overpasses to look like a real city

Yeah, traffic is probably the culprit I'm starting to run into issues with dead bodies. I have crematoriums ALL over the city, like 15 of them, and theres still dead bodies everwhere and people bitching about it. Oddly enough, no other service has any issues, I have no complaints about...

I really can't recommend dropbox enough if you have kids. My phone, my wifes phone, and grandmas phone all auto-upload pictures to the same dropbox account. I just go in once a month to the "camera uploads" folder and copy the last months worth of pictures to a new folder. Easy enough, if...

Man, I LOVE this game, and theres a shitload of good free user-created content already. Seems like the most effort is being pout towards traffic control, theres a ton of awesome custome interchanges on the Steam Workshop Heres a custom turbine interchange, probably the best one overall for...

I'm definitely odd like that. If I like something, I could eat it every day for a week and be fine. I made some badass chicken salad using a rotisserie chicken from Costco on monday, and I've eaten it every day for lunch and twice for dinner this week. My wife was sick of it by like...

I think my list basically broke down to roughly 4 fast food stops per week. Id wager its roughly 2 breakfast stops and 2 lunch stops per 5 day work week. I pretty much never eat it for dinner as dinner is with the family (wife and kid) but when I'm alone (work) inmprobably hitting a drive...

Easily worth $20, best AC game by far. I played it with an Xbox controller attached to my PC.

Its kinda like the old adage about women: Hot/Smart/Sane - pick 2. Jobs are the same: One of the more realistic ways to reach that middle area is to be your own boss(like Corndog). That's definitely not without risks though. It sounds like you want a fun job, that pays well, leaves...

I hit the jackpot when my (now)wife and I found out that her employer allowed "domestic partners" to be added to her health insurance. I moved in with her over a year before we officially married to get on her insurance ASAP. Saved me several thousand dollars that year, and was much better...

I think the main knock on the Nexus 6 is that Google abandoned their reasonable pricing from the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 and bowed down to complaints from all the other Android phone manufacturers that they were being undercut too severely. So the Nexus 6 is double the price of the 4 or 5 were at...

Roundabouts! Seriously though, it's actually working pretty well so far. I'm about to un-zone the last of my factories on the far top of that screenshot and just be all offices. A decent amount of space still left before I need to purchase another section of map. Things are growing...

Yeah, no one is going to hit those numbers, unless they try. You could install a 50GB game every day for an entire year and you've still only done 20TB of writes. The minimum, worst drives on there start having errors at 10x that amount. So you could install(write) a 50GB game every day for a...

The 18-month SSD experiment is finally over, all of the drives are dead The SSD Endurance Experiment: They're all dead - The Tech Report - Page 3 Basically: The Samsung 840 PRO lasted for 2.4Petabytes(2400 TB) of writes, which was the longest by far. It started getting errors at 300TB...

Hah, here's a shirt he apparently wore often to conventions

I'd bet a large % is the labor/install, rather than the materials. So like you said, install as much as you can while you're doing it, since you're paying the labor regardless. Either future-proof yourself with a TON of excess bandwidth, or lease/sell it off to the highest bidder if you truly...

Ctrf-F search for "Taco Bell" = 46 entries

Well, to be fair that was probably over a weekend or something so all the charges were technically dated for Monday...I hope

i7 has more cache than the i5, so it can not only repeat repetitive commands faster(think spreadsheets and databases), but that extra cache allows for more background programs & processes to be stored and brought to the forefront more quickly when you switch between multiple programs that are...

So, I'm getting all my paperwork together to do my taxes this year, and i put EVERYTHING on my credit card each month, since it is a rewards card, every time I eat out, it goes on the card. I fucking gotta stop eating out, here is 2014 for me: I've never felt more McCheese-ish

Just depends on what you are going to do with the machine. If it's purely a gaming and rerolled.org browsing machine, go i5. If you're doing anything else in the background while gaming, go i7.

Even if they never use most of it themselves, they could make a mint in the coming years leasing all that extra fiber to ISPs in small towns
