MMmmm. BeanWasser.

Let me ask something of the people who are smarter than I am. Which, I suspect, is most of you.

Specifically, this has to do with statistics as they relate to hardware issues on a computer.

Say you search google for a particular issue you've read about, and get around 1000 total hits. Would you say that is a 'widely known' issue, or something that is affecting only a small percentage of users?

So, Rosanne Barr came here to Israel and claims that Antisemitism is what brought her down and I'm over here thinking, 'Didn't you compare Valerie Jarret to some kind of talking ape/Terrorist?'

I mean, she did apologize and claimed it was because of Ambien or something, but still.

I have no doubt that Rosanne's experienced antisemitism. She's not your typical Jewish person, and I know a lot of older Jewish people who have very similar world views. I still think it's a little silly to cop out on your personal responsibility there.

You know when you're excited to get that new laptop, so you start reading more in depth reviews and forums, even though you did your homework all of a sudden you're like... oh no.

The thing is I know from working in CS that the issues I'm reading about aren't a lot of people. I see the same guy posting on two or three forums, or exact cuts and pastes of that same issue. All the standard reviews are pretty fantastic.

@bryceyoungquist Oh, I see many Stellaris posts. This is relevant to my interests.

Here's hoping tomorrow brings new laptop. I'm ready. My body is ready. Bring me the compu-love.

Oh, I just realized it comes with a backpack and a mouse. That's always nice !

Now I just need to figure out how to undervolt the processor.

Everything I've read seems to suggest to get the best performance out of this laptop you slightly undervolt the CPU and it keeps the thing from thermal throttling and allows for the best over all gaming experience.

Any day now I get my new laptop. Oh, man, I'm so excited.

Specs will be fantastic.

i7-8750H 6 cores, Coffee Lake Intel Processor.

32 gb Memory, 16 in dual channel.

Nvidia 1070.

17" display, with 144hz refresh and gsync.

That's really the stuff I need. Should really upgrade my gaming <3

I like that the new version of mastodon makes moderation a little easier. Lets me send emails to folks who need'em.
