i can't believe they still do that, install one printer , and the installer installs the entire Line of printers from the company (brother) Why , why you no repect my computer.
If they could get that monkey who can't code, cleaning up stuff , organising, and testing, instead of making Cute Grafics trash the employee might still have real value to this world.
Is not so bad that one company , one piece of hardware , one piece of software abuses the system, and often the registry, but noooo they All have to do it .
@DragonLord - While I agree AMD likely should refresh that SKU the problem is that only their downstream partners would end up purchasing it and/or the AMD brand loyal customers. There is no doubt if a consumer only cars about performance that Intel's Core architecture hands down defeats AMD's current offerings in every possible capacity and honestly at times even in price at times ( perhaps not actual value but conceived value )
As I have learned that conceived value is the only thing that counts :$
There is only a small sub-set of consumers that care about the case. Its the sub-set of consumers that want to build their own computer but don't have the skill in order to do so or believe they don't have the skill in order to do so.
If the case is butt ugly it might stop a consumer from picking it but its likely one of the last considerations.
Extension of How much radiation do computers emit?
The first answer said that (tl;dr) no.
The first and second answer stated that all electronics emit an amount of radiation.
My question is, for computers, how much?
Anyone have thoughts on that question? Its either a duplicate since it could have simply been a bounty or not on topic since we have biology.stackexchange.com now
I think my computer has a tendancy to emit much more heat heat radiation than anything, about 250 watts of it :-)
(the other 50 watts actually doing something)
I would have to say it was a dupe, because any real effects from computers dissaperaed when we were no longer 18" from CRTs that we should be 4 feet away from.
and that was covered.
The CRT (wonders of television) could product EM that was more easily measured with housold items , than the power lines behind my house for the distance i was existing from each.
They also did the static build thing, ionising air and producing (what that stuff) ozone or something, with the high voltage flyback transformers.
The LEDs do not output that UV stuff , so your probably dying from the lack of sun (said to be a source of bodily produced vitimin D) then from the wavelengths left there.
Which just leaves the non-ionising but no less messes with rats RF radiation from sitting on top of your wi-fi antenna.
Go figure. I had a problem that would have been perfect for Superuser. My fix ended up making the situation worst. iCloud Photos was causing windows explorer to crash when I attempted to access it. My fix uninstall itunes and ect. ended up killing my collection, lol
After FuckIshemia nuke disaster (and others) unloads into the air particals , and all the WWII testing that raised the "background" radiation. I think that breathing is probably more dangerous than todays modern computer.
physical files are there but collection is empty :-(
Good grief.
OpenGL is apparently a new API
err
I said that wrong
Khronos Group is apparently going to release a new API called Vulkan ( horrible name given recent news ) OpenGL should be their primary focus ( grrrrr )
Alright, looks like its a codename.
To see HTTM2 or not to see HTTM2 that is the question :$
The day scientist actually began to understand radiation, they made a big bomb and killed a milllion people with it. Do we really have to respect what a "scientist" tells us after that :-)
They said nuke plants were safe, then chernobley goes off, 5 minutes later they say "oh that was old tech, all the new GE plants it could never happen" then the next one goes off . and now That was old tech (but it wasnt when they said IT was safe) .. . Humans making misteaks ?? uhh that is always happening, so that might be an excuse but not a reason.
When The last one went off, they specifically withheld information, because people knowing would have been worse than the people dying ??? And were supposed to take thier word at that point for Anything?
how many times do people get lied to before a "scientist" especially ones whos job and providing for family depends on the lies, is trusted any more than a politician who finds it nessisary to (cough) also bend the truth.
Tell it to the guy who comes out of one of them "safe" coal mining operations :-)
My friend from high school works at a nuclear reasearch facility. that has dumped tritium and cesium into the water table (by accident) he make a 6 figure salery and has free unlimited medical benefits. The people who would believe what he might tell them would chop off thier right arm to have the money he has made in 10 years. You really think he cares if they did :-)
really put them on the ends of the poles , then all people will have to complain about is the ice melting :-)
The same steam turbining could be in multiple stages? use water for the first stage, then ammonia to "extract" another round of energy (turning turbones again). then they could be "Energy Star" rated :-)
I always percieve that anything dumping tons of energy is very poor efficency.
Then dumping the 1/2 spent fuel is also proof of low efficency. they have been able to re-refine the unspent fuel, but they dont bother, plus the "breeder" reactor is said to be able to get more of the energy out of even the 1/2 used stuff.
I am thinking there will be a time where we just fuel up our houses hydrogen fuel cell
:$
Shit... I am in the wrong field, well technically I am not, but speciality ;$
"Take the Cinnabon Delights, mix in something that makes them pink, and roll them in crushed hopes and dreams Cap'n Crunch Crunch Berries cereal—not Oops, All Berries!, the perennial proof of the ineptitude of Quaker Oats' factory workers—and you've got what looks like slightly bruised testicles coated in children's breakfast cereal." alright what the heck?
NVIDIA Maxwell power consumption just keeps on impressing me.
50% more performance per watt than Kepler—and it's still 28nm. It's difficult to imagine just how efficient things can get once NVIDIA moves to 20nm.
...and we've already gotten a taste of what's possible with 20nm Maxwell in the Tegra X1 SoC.
1024 GFLOPS performance in a special half-precision floating point mode, 512 GFLOPS single precision.
The Aventum II Level 4 configuration is very close to this; the only major changes that would be needed are replacing the dual GTX TITAN Z cards in SLI with four ASUS Strix GTX 980s in SLI
...and increasing the RAM from 32 GB to 64 GB.
With those changes, the system build cost sits just below $10K.
Will I ever need a system like this? Only time will tell.
I can't see a good reason right now to drop $10K on an LPC-class system, regardless of whether I had the money.
A system of this sort would have a planned service life of about 5-7 years. It's not really worth it.
...but you never know what you might need some point in the future.
There's the advantage of a prebuilt machine from a boutique PC builder: craftsmanship.
It's truly a unique design.
Alright, back to work. Spending $10K on a PC is IMO silly.
Well, if you have the money, Digital Storm will happily replicate the LPC for you, but with the latest, most advanced parts available. Just start with an Aventum II Level 4.
We are using Team Foundation Server(TFS), and we need to start doing code reviews. I don't see anything Microsoft makes that supports code reviewing, but if I've missed something that would be the best option.
I am looking for a 3rd party tool which will integrate with TFS.
I expect that given ...
I have rendered my own CA project before. Once you have the images themselfs it just requires a bunch of computing power to merge them creating. I forget what took longer the creation of the indivudual images or importing the images into Adobe ( I forget the name of the poduct )
ok i have one server here, i want to know how fast io speed in my server, in last time i did this at linux console
sysbench --test=fileio --file-total-size=10G --file-test-mode=rndrw --init-rng=on --max-time=300 --max-requests=0 run
it says it has speed 2mbps, for io speed to read/write for each file.
after that i have mysql and i have data for 13GB , i want to select all data from mysql, lets say it has 2mbps lets say with overhead its speed down to 1.5mbps ,
that mean 13000 /1.5 = 8667 i must wait for 8667 seconds is my calculation right ?.
@user965347 I wouldn't know how to speed it up without knowing a lot more. It sorta sounds like you're just copying, do you need to involve SQL or can you treat the database as a regular file?
my client want me to do publish all, actually that 13GB is a CSV that converted to table.
and i have to publish all, i so i just do "select * from table_data_cache" i waited for 5 days to load the data, but it wont load. the query hung up when i check the process, it said sending data, i checked in mysql docs sending data means the data is being readed , but it is past 5 days , i stopeed the query and i check my disk, my server admin said, my server are using xen as virualization, after that i tried to find solution , and i have idea to benchmark the disk speed, i tried it with sysbench, i…
I don't plan to have a Linux physical machine anytime soon, not after my dealing with the hassles of running Linux on the Wyvern
Oddly enough, the first functional PC I personally owned, the Cerberus, had Windows Vista Home Basic removed in order to run Linux, specifically openSUSE.
It's an old eMachines desktop, a bottom-bin system.
It did see several aftermarket upgrades, including CPU and power supply replacements, but it's still slow and way behind the times
I am using dropbox. I paid for the non free version and have tons of space. Unfortunately the dropbox is also used by my business partners.
I want to store most of my files in dropbox so I can get them backed up. However, most of the files are private files like my vacation photos, my girlfriend...
I run arch linux on my home computer and have just been given the responsibility to a group of debian & windows servers that all seem to be help together by duct tape
