Still sitting on 3 OPO invites, no one seems to want them.

I was worried about the bigger screen too. Now, I look at my wife's iPhone 5 like it's an old Blackberry. You won't regret it, Crone.

You can't say that Android OS "sells more". Phones that run Android sell more because there are way, way, way, WAY more of them, they are cheaper, they can be (and are) tailor-made to certain markets, etc. It's not a reasonable comparison. The "it sells more" argument, and the "but iPhones...

Mounts can help greatly with cliff scaling, too, if that's your thing. Really, though, they feel like a (poorly designed) afterthought in this game.

3x 64GB Black OPO invites for grabs here, PM me your email if you want one.

There is only one set of "KMS keys" these days. They allow the use of a custom KMS in an enterprise to activate Windows. If you're going to Microsoft for activation, you aren't using those keys. You are using Microsoft's KMS with a retail key (or VL key, which are handled the same way these...

Everything he said. Also, sometime during the active development of JRE7, a change was made to a specific set of security routines that now actively blocks any JRE app that used a widely-used security API call. This means that if you want to run any of these apps (e.g. any older version of...

A lot of things that used JRE 6 won't run on 7, or 8. Especially older software that hasn't kept up with the changing API and still uses an older security model. There are newer versions of 6 that are still being patched, but they are only available from Oracle with a service agreement in place...

I bought a house when the prices lowered somewhat. It's otherwise untouched, think there is upwards of 3 million left.

The Gilgamesh guild is pretty much unused. If people want to revive it, lemme know and I'll make you officers or whatever.

Sorry, lost me after this. All I do all day at work is support Microsoft products in an enterprise, and I wouldn't trust them in the cloud to save my life. It has nothing to do with the stability of their products; rather, the fact that I'm not in charge of (or even in the know about) how their...

It's going to RFP, which means someone will find a way to undercut and then underprovide.

Wish I had time to play this. Damnit.

Depends on which language you're speaking. HSPA+ is sometimes referred to as 4G.

I use my HP like that, connected to a TV. Same thing with the power button. I leave it on most of the time, but when I do have to shut it off (to clean it, to move things around, whatever), I have to open it to press the power button. I suppose Wake On LAN would work too, but I've never bothered.

I used to pay ~$110/month for my iPhone with Rogers (our version of AT&T). The second my contract was up, I ran for the hills. $38/month now with a smaller carrier (WIND Mobile), but it lacks some of the features of the big players like visual voicemail.

Furmark is a great tool for proving to Dell that your laptop's GPUs are fucked. Regardless of their state, they will be dead by the time you're done with Furmark. It's a beautiful thing when you have a warranty. The best part is, the last time I had to run it, the tech actually seemed...

Looks likeonly this one, which I personally think is ugly as sin. Out of stock on most colours, though. I bet they're fairly popular given bendgate.

I don't even understand that. I've been less than careful with mine and it still hasn't bent. Who knows, maybe it's carelessness combined with structural defects in some phones more than others?

I've had my 6+ since release day. I keep it in my pocket all the time. Had it in my pocket for ~1000 sq ft of flooring and other renos and it didn't bend, so, you must have to be the king of morons to bend the thing by accident. Bending it on purpose, well, yeah, easy enough -- but who bends...

I'd bet you he works for a large company that buys PCs with OEM keys that aren't used.

It's arguably easier to work with, yes, but only because much of the ESXi feature set is sorta-kinda spread out across Windows as well. Think Remote Desktop Services vs. VMware View, SCVMM vs. vCenter, Hyper-V Manager (part of RSAT) vs. vSphere Client, etc. It's alright for entry level...

Not sure if that pinpointed the problem, Gravy, but my laptop was doing this as well, and it was the video card heatsinks in my case. I had to tighten them up before it stopped randomly shutting off (thermal issues, clearly). It was mostly while gaming, but sometimes even the 2D clocks would...

Normally I wouldn't post in here, because luls, but: I have absolutely no idea why you're saying this. I work with both on a regular basis. VMware is leagues ahead of Hyper-V in enterprise scenarios. The only reason you'd want to go with Hyper-V above VMware is cost, so, small/medium business...

Right, because they've never introduced a line of Windows that had Starter, Basic, Premium, Professional, and Ultimate (and Business, and Enterprise) in it, right? I mean, it's not like they did this with Windows XP, right? Wait, there are 14 different SKUs for Windows XP. Vista? 18 different...

As far as I know, OEM keys no longer exist with Vista and higher. A key is a key is a key. The only reason it wouldn't work would be that it's already been activated too many times, in which case, yes, call Microsoft to activate by phone. When it asks you how many computers are using this key...

Yeah, that he did. I just can't believe that someone is still using his name. Does he even play anything any more? The guy did play Quake 3 really well, though.

In other news, someone still cares about Fatal1ty?

Honestly, Kegz was at least trying to fight for something he believed in. Rellapse is just moaning over something that happened to him months/years ago at this point that no one cares about but him. I mean, look at his sig. It screams "I am butthurt that EQMac wouldn't accept me for the princess...

Nitro Reader will do image -> PDF, but I think it only does 1 file at a time in free mode. Can't remember.

FTFY. Seriously, would you just go away already?

Still? Thought that was a pre-order thing. Any idea if the $10 coupon for pre-ordering can be used with the $45 price tag? That would be sweet.

Really liking this game so far. The latest nVidia drivers brought a reasonably large performance boost, though. Before I updated, ouch. That said, this is the first game I haven't realistically been able to play at 5760x1080 on Ultra. Time to convince my wife to let me upgrade to 970s!

If you're not going with a monitor, IMO, I'd go with the bigger screen, for a few reasons (some of which you've mentioned): 1. The specs are pretty much the same except for the screen. You're not losing anything by going bigger except a few bucks. 2. Touch screen, as you mentioned. I don't...

If it isn't moving around much, I can't honestly see why the Y70 wouldn't be a better buy. If you do a bunch of travelling, sure, smaller makes more sense. Obvious question that will invalidate this opinion completely: Gonna use a monitor with it at home?

Tying your clients to the network is fine as long as it's redundant.* (* - ours isn't redundant enough per-site, which is going to be luls one day, but we do have multi-site failover)

Interesting. I wonder if this is due to the demand? They are a smaller outfit. Maybe they've dug themselves into a hole so deep that they can't see their way out of it right now. Those who have bought a OPO, have you had any problems with it? A friend bought one and, while he hasn't quite...

Yeah, the spam is annoying.

Illidan strikes again! I'll play in a few weeks at this rate. I'm too casual to bother with long queues.

Oh, but, the luls to be had far outweigh the temporary damage to his ego. It must be done. Think of the children, Kegz.
