Bested by a Dell. Ouch. FWIW, one of my Dells has been plagued with issues. The other hasn't had a single problem. Maybe you had a Lemon, not an Apple. =D

There are definitely some things to dislike Apple products for, but not a single one of them (as far as I'm concerned, anyway) was mentioned in that post. So, yeah, agreed.

Cool. It's going to take quite a while to migrate all of my data (~9TB) to FlexRaid from Windows RAID (I'll have to copy it all back on to the storage pool once I delete the RAID and create a storage pool), but it sounds like since most of my data is movies/TV, snapshot is the ideal way to go...

I don't want to see the staff being friendly. I want to see them banhammering the everliving shit out of some moron who was caught soloing dragons with MQ2, without remorse, without second chances, and certainly without a cover-up. Looks like they've addressed what I asked about in their...

These people probably have their real jimmies rustled and can't do anything about it.

Sounds interesting. I might give this a try when I migrate my server to Windows 2012. The overhead of software RAID 5 is fairly horrible, and when the server crashes (it happens from time to time) the entire RAID has to re-sync, which takes way too long. Thanks for mentioning this.

Most people don't care about those things. Put in realistic perspective, Macs are just as good for the average person as non-Macs. They're solid computers, they have excellent warranties and support, and I have absolutely no idea why you're miserable supporting a Mac on any network, unless...

Yeah, I can't stand Safari. So many shortcomings. I use Chrome a lot as well, because I can see my sessions from home/work on my phone.

Since it was suggested over in the Android thread, and it wasn't started yet, I'll start it. A couple of my must-haves are: Camera+ - Excellent photo editing camera app. Puffin - Browser that does Flash. Got tired of not being able to use a bunch of web sites, and this one does a decent job.

How is FlexRAID for performance? Looking at it right now and I'm kinda wondering why I'm not using this instead of Windows RAID.

Before I bother going through all that levelling again... questions! I didn't see these in the FAQ. My apologies if it was there. 1. What is your stance on the usual issues, like MQ2, SEQ, RMTing? How about griefing/training? 2. How will cheating be dealt with on this server, and will this...

Then what does the real chart look like? The numbers I posted and that chart disagree wildly, so, somewhere in between, there must be truth. I can't possibly believe that it makes any sense for everyone to go and pick up 4K TVs at ~50-60" with a 9-10' viewing distance, which is where most...

That looks very promising as a Start Menu alternative. I think I'm gonna give that a try today.

Pretty much. If I didn't game, I'd run OSX. Actually, at home, I do most of my non-gaming in an OSX VM.

So, you guys woke the Sleeper because... people wouldn't respect you? Horseshit. I remember the posts on the P99 forums about how much fun you all were having stirring shit over at EQmac just because you could, how much contempt you all had for the already existing community there, etc. As...

Don't switch based on a feeling. Try every device and evaluate them on their own merits. Apple does good things, but so do other manufacturers. I own an iPad, iPhone and I had an iMac. I sold the iMac because I already had enough computers running Windows. As a computer running OSX, it was...

Went and looked up my own question, because I was curious. Stolen fromhttp://www.neowin.net/news/itu-appro...-specification. No direct references cited. There's more there, and they go further in depth than I really care to try to understand. I can't imagine "needing" this anytime soon, even...

Wonder if anyone's actually got the math for how large your screen would have to be / how far away you'd have to be for that kind of resolution to even matter. 4K is ridiculous enough as it is...

It's done, but the dev team folks are sitting on the exploits at the moment as they don't have any spares. At least we know it's still possible, though.

Q. What do you get when the money starts to take over, and the game becomes less important? A. Moon cats. Aliens. You know, that kind of thing.

Well, shit. Hopefully that won't happen to this version as well, because BAMs being challenging to solo is kinda the point.

Wasn't this server started by folks that left P99? Wasn't one of them Toop? Didn't he get mad when he was caught cheating on P99 and dealt a ban? Sorry, but... I don't see much in this server's future with that guy even close to the helm.

Etiquette... be wary of hand gestures and eye contact. Some gestures have very unanticipated meanings. I can't remember exactly what they all are and there are a good number of them. Check outthisguide. It's got a lot of silly things in it, but the basics are there (I can't understand you, thank...

Oh, that makes MUCH more sense now. I was kinda wondering.

Sorry, but if she cried when you suggested that she socialize less (and therefore allow people to do their work), she is a drama queen, and it wouldn't have mattered where/when/how you told her. There is simply no winning with some people. Hopefully, this will at least help in pointing out the...

Yep. Don't update from Windows unless you really have to for some reason (and I can't think of a good one). Many modern BIOSes have the ability to update from within the BIOS itself using a file from your hard drive, or you can use a USB stick or CD-R/DVD-R.

It's Sony. Why even ask?

Shazam says: Freedom Fighters - Two Steps From Hell

Chrome works fine for me on that thread, on Linux, Windows (XP, 7, 8) and OS X. What version are you running?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Chances are the only thing you're doing is adding support for CPUs you don't have. Read the BIOS update revision's change log, and if none of the fixes or additions apply to you, there's no reason to do the update. Granted, it's very unlikely that anything...

It's only natural that the advent of the tablet/phone/combo market is going to push the PC market down a bit. People aren't using PCs for the same things that they always have been, either because they aren't necessary, or because they have both a PC and a <something else> that shares their...

Output capability to a real screen, maybe?

Meh. Jailbroken or not, it's still ARM.

Should be doable. Even at 5400rpm, using figures from a couple years back, you're talking a minimum of ~200-220 Mbit/sec transfer rate. The issue is more the class of drive and whether or not its initial seek time will be problematic for RAID setups. Depending on the RAID you're using, you may...

Good point. Root cc then? Somewhere far from any prospective developer would be good.

Can we kill this guy please?

If you're a bad mystic, everyone WILL die. If you're a bad priest, you can still muddle through, but everything takes longer to kill (which doesn't really matter until you're in high end instances anyway).

Mystics have a rough time in the higher level dungeons if people are stupid, and most people are stupid. I've done plenty of dungeon runs with only a mystic, though, and if your party is smart enough not to Stand In the Fire all the time, it's fine. My wife played a priest. My main is a...

Mystics are more of a great buffing class with some offensive capability and some limited (mostly single target, if I remember right) healing. They can drop HoT items around as well so that people can pick them up when they need healing, and that's cool most of the time, but effectiveness is...

Might be able to convince my wife to play again for free (she'll be Founder status, as we both bought the game), so, this is great. I wonder if you get to pick which 2 characters to play if you have more than 2, or if it randomly picks 2 (like SWTOR).
