At some point I'll just buy a new "proper" laptop and pass him my x220 (which is a great machine) or get him a stream 13
 
The latest Chrome update for Android has been very unstable. Whenever I have more than a few tabs open and I'm navigating across lots of different websites, I'm bound to get an "Aw, Snap!" page crash at some point. In some cases, the crashes repeat on every or nearly every attempt to reload the page.
Rebooting the device helps, but only temporarily.
 
@bwDraco could it be your specific device? something like: not enough (free) memory? GPU driver bug? vendor-specific customization to the OS/firmware?
"Chrome" works fine on my iPhone 6S+, bearing in mind that Chrome on iOS isn't really Chrome; it's the UI of Chrome with the engine of Safari
 
@allquixotic Nexus 9 running a recent CyanogenMod 12.1 nightly build.
Shouldn't run out of memory that easily, although Chrome (especially on a 64-bit device) is a memory hog.
(Nexus 9 uses NVIDIA Tegra K1 Denver, which is ARMv8-A with AArch64.)
The tablet is equipped with 2 GB of memory. 128 MB is reserved for the processor's dynamic code optimization (it processes ARM code to the Denver internal 7-wide VLIW execution engine, optimizing code while it is being executed and caching the result in that space—based on Transmeta code-morphing technology)
Zram is enabled. With root access, I changed the swappiness to 100 to try to get the system to make better use of it. There's a bit of an improvement to doing this but the advantage is limited.

@Dave too bad :
 
22 hours ago, by Bob
> The processor TDP is the maximum sustained power that should be used for design of
the processor thermal solution. TDP is a power dissipation and junction temperature
operating condition limit, specified in this document, that is validated during
manufacturing for the base configuration when executing a near worst case
commercially available workload as specified by Intel for the SKU segment. TDP may
be exceeded for short periods of time or if running a "power virus" workload.
100% correct. My laptop's CPU can sustain full Turbo speeds continuously under most workloads thanks to a good thermal solution, but if you run something unusually power-intensive (AVX2-heavy code, for example), it won't want to hit the full Turbo speeds. The CPU clocks down to 2.9-3.0 GHz—not throttling, strictly speaking (the i7-4800MQ is nominally 2.7 GHz), but it's not full clock speeds.
The TDP is 47 watts. If you were to try to run AVX2-rich code at the full 3.5 GHz Turbo speed, the processor could easily dissipate closer to 65 watts, well above what the processor is designed for.
Let's not forget that the TDP is shared with the processor graphics. If you're running a graphically-intensive workload at the same time as said AVX2 load and you don't throttle, the processor will likely dissipate upwards of 80 watts of heat—this is desktop territory!
If you do this with an i7-4790K and you force it to run at full speeds without throttling (via XTU or other overclocking software), the "88 W" processor will generate upwards of 120 watts of heat!
 
hmm toasty.
 
12:45 AM
I've had to run neural network simulations on my laptop for a graduate class, compiled in VC++ 2015 with AVX2 support enabled, and the CPU clocks down on my laptop. We've need (and will continue to need) every last bit of compute power available.
The TDP is the heat dissipation you'd expect on a normal x86-64 workload with nothing more than SSE2 instructions. AVX2 instructions are very hard on the hardware, as you have to process 4- or even 8-wide vectors all at the same time, calling for far more silicon to be active at once than with normal workloads.
This is precisely what a power virus does.
> Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX) are designed to achieve higher throughput for certain integer and floating point operations. Due to varying processor power characteristics, utilizing AVX instructions may cause a) some parts to operate at less than the rated frequency and b) some parts with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 to not achieve any or maximum turbo frequencies.
This is Intel's own warning.
 
1:22 AM
Can someone here understand what the “joke” is when this poster prepends //, to each post? superuser.com/questions/995213/…
 
Bob
@allquixotic Well, it is partially their fault for not having more redundancy in place.
@DavidPostill 38 probably isn't much considering just how many customers they have...
@allquixotic eww bbcode
 
// is comment isn't it?
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek In C-like languages
@bwDraco It's from the datasheet, of course it's correct -- it's how they defined it :P

ultrasawblade ? — Raystafarian 7 hours ago
 
Bob
@bwDraco Yes?
I know what the comment was referring to :P
 
:P
 
2:23 AM
@Bob Wrong again. The chip is a 5Y10, with a max burst of 2.0Ghz, which I've been saying repeatedly. ark.intel.com/products/83610/…
> Max Turbo Frequency 2 GHz
From Intel's own specs page!
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Ah. Misread that as 5Y70 repeatedly somehow. Sorry.
Still, my point stands for the 5Y71 chips (and I'm still concerned over the temps -- 85 for the last ~30 secs and potentially rising further).
So, no, not wrong "again".
 
Christ, get over yourself. This is getting tedious.
I repeatedly said the UX305 maintains maximum turbo. Which you've tried to deny three different ways now.
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Seriously? "Get over yourself"? What's your problem with me?
@qasdfdsaq I've admitted I misread the chip name.
 
Your point about that chip was your only point, now you're claiming it pertains to a different chip when you realised it wasn't valid at all
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Considering that the other devices under test definitely use a 5Y71?
 
2:27 AM
I said:
@Bob The UX305. I did specifically say that already, and they also mention it repeatedly in the article...
 
Bob
I said I misread the 5Y10 as 5Y70.
 
You responded saying:

@qasdfdsaq Nope. Stays at 2000 MHz. Max burst spec is 2600 MHz for that chip (5Y70). Though it looks like the OEM might have set a lower limit -- so, again, you've got a situation where that device can sustain its max burst but not what the chip is capable of.
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Yes, that is the one I misread.
 
So a) The max burst is not 2600 for that chip, b) the OEM has not set a lower limit, and C) You do not have a situation where the device cannot sustain max burst
Every part of that statement is wrong so how can it possibly stand for a chip you never even mentioned?
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Yes, I have already admitted that I misread that particular chip name. Sheesh.
That particular statement was based on that chip.
 
2:30 AM
There's been absolutely no rhyme or reason behind your constant weasling and denials
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Weaselling over what? Denials over what?
And aren't you being rather hypocritical there?
Now can we leave the ad hominem arguments out of this?
yesterday, by Bob
But they simply cannot sustain high speeds at such a low TDP for extended periods.
^ my original statement
yesterday, by qasdfdsaq
@Bob Actually, they can. Sorta. It's mostly about how effective the OEM makes the cooling system.
^ your original counter
we went a bit off-topic there going on about actual devices, but I did end up clarifying further down
 
Oh shut up
 
Bob
yesterday, by Bob
However, you're then operating above specified TDP.
yesterday, by Bob
If you're getting more performance, but you spend more time at, say, 6 W power dissipation (or even 12 W at peak, reportedly) -- sure, your cooling solution might handle it but that doesn't automatically make you more efficient than a lower-power (both energy consumption and performance) chip.
 
Its OK guys I'm here to save the night and I'm handing out to you both free java chips
Mmmm tasty
Actually I'm heading to bed, please get some sleep :-)
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq You're the one calling me out as wrong. I've admitted the mistake I've made in one part of what I've said. However, the rest of what I've said is not wrong as far as I know, and you're completely avoiding that.
 
2:36 AM
@qasdfdsaq I think you dropped these:
 
I see that and raise you...
GODZILLA
Or a varient of it anyway
 
Bob
If you're going to call me out as generally wrong, I'm not going to simply accept that. If you want to point out something specific, sure. I'll welcome that, assuming it's not yet another ad hominem attack.
 
Basically it's gone like this:
You: Core M's throttle heavily in practice
Me: The 2.0 turbo Core M's can maintain 2.0Ghz
You: That is simply not sustainable.
Me: Yes it is: Read this anandtech.com/show/9117/analyzing-intel-core-m-performance
You: even if they met spec a Core M chip simply cannot sustain burst speeds.
Me: UX305 maintains full turbo speed 24/7, The UX305 will even maintain 1.5Ghz turbo while the graphics core is at 700Mhz turbo
You: You can pick and choose all the over-spec devices you want.
 
Delicious @JourneymanGeek
 
(milo, topped with ice scream, topped with milo)
And if you don't know what milo is, I'm sorry for you ;p
 
Bob
2:38 AM
@qasdfdsaq Yes, I've already admitted my mistake regarding the UX305 and the 5Y10.
 
So your entire argument has been wrong all along
 
@JourneymanGeek Is that the new or old milo?
 
Now you're claiming oh you were specifically talking about some other chip that nobody ever mentioned
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Two devices in the same test you link used the 5Y71!
 
I never said anything about the 5Y71. You changed your story to being about the 5Y71 after being proven to be wrong about everything else.
**Me: The 2.0 turbo Core M's can maintain 2.0Ghz **
 
2:40 AM
@MichaelFrank: I don't think they changed the formulation here.
 
Me: UX305 maintains full turbo speed 24/7
Where do I mention the 5Y71?!
 
@JourneymanGeek They changed it here... it's more malty... and less chocolatey :(
 
I lived off half little bottles of the chilled stuff when I was in the army.
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Seriously? Even at the very start, and I've quoted again:
7 mins ago, by Bob
yesterday, by Bob
But they simply cannot sustain high speeds at such a low TDP for extended periods.
 
@MichaelFrank: The horror
 
2:40 AM
@qasdfdsaq I honestly don't think anyone cares at this point...
 
One does not mess with perfection
 
@MichaelFrank And yet he continues to deny it...
 
@MichaelFrank: A local ice cream place sells a special edition milo flavour.
On one hand, there's 3 other new flavours.
On the other, that stuff is sooooo goooood.
(Heck, I pick it over their chocolate, which is to die for)
 
Bob
Point being: we started off from my statement about comparing low-power Via, AMD and Intel chips.
 
@Bob And yet I've shown you a passively cooled tablet that does exactly that.
Fuck it, another one for the block list.
 
Bob
2:42 AM
Via specifically having a high-powered one of unspecified TDP.

The entire point of this being the whole processing-power vs power-consumption tradeoff.
 
@JourneymanGeek Special edition Milo? :O
 
@Dave Shit, got so carried away I missed that entirely and then wondered 10 minutes later why the hell everyone was talking about ice cream
 
peanut butter ice cream too.
(oh, and there's a white rose flavour that's dog approved)
@qasdfdsaq We have arguements and talk about random shit at the same time
We don't take things too seriously here ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek Ooh Milo Icecream. Riiiight. That'd be amazing.
 
2:46 AM
@MichaelFrank: soooo gooood
 
Had to google what Milo was. Doesn't seem to be a thing around here.
 
Oh, and their peanut butter icescream is good
@qasdfdsaq: its aussie originally. It sort of got adopted by us and malaysia. Its a malted chocolate drink that is pretty tasty.
 
@JourneymanGeek Damn, that does sound good.
 
@JourneymanGeek It's huge in NZ.
 
Given that I drink a lot of Horlicks and Cadbury's.... Can't believe I've never thought of mixing the two
 
2:48 AM
lol
Horlicks is huge in india
Pity they dropped the 'classic' glass bottles
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek Which reminds me, I haven't had a good Milo drink in a while...
 
It's huge in my kitchen too
 
Bob
probably got a tin of it in some cupboard somewhere
 
(and this folks, is why I shouldn't sell drugs.)
 
Bob
It's not as good without milk, though :(
 
2:49 AM
@qasdfdsaq I think it similar to Bournvita if you've had that before.
 
@MichaelFrank Nope :(
 
it isn't
 
Sadly the UK isn't the greatest place to get any good stuff
Seems you have to go east past Poland before any good food re-appears
 
@qasdfdsaq There's one thing I miss from when I was in the UK
Irn Bru.
 
@JourneymanGeek D:
 
2:50 AM
@JourneymanGeek Hah! I've heard a lot of people say that.
 
(though my love of that stuff mystified some)
 
It's so... everywhere around here that you take it for granted, and don't realise you can't just get it everywhere outside the UK
 
@qasdfdsaq: Its banned in places.
 
@JourneymanGeek o_0 Seriously?!
 
Something about excess girder content, and outbreaks of scottishness the colouring they use.

7:31pm EST: ETA for the repair of the WEST fibre link (BHS<>MTL, BHS<>Chicago, vrack and inter-datacentre): 3 hours. 2/2
 
I'm surprised the Scots don't brag about that more
"Our staple drink is so manly that other countries had to ban it"
 
Huh, odd. I see no reasoning in that article for banning Sunset Yellow yet several countries have done it
> Sunset Yellow FCF has no carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, or developmental toxicity in the amounts at which it is used.[1]:465[9]
It has been claimed since the late 1970s under the advocacy of Benjamin Feingold that that Sunset Yellow FCC causes food intolerance and ADHD-like behavior in children but there is no scientific evidence to support these broad claims.[
 
Oh the usual hysteria over hyperactivity
of course in the old days kids burnt off energy in other ways
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq Not all bans are based on good reasoning.
Get enough of the general public concerned over something (real or not) and something's gonna give.

@qasdfdsaq: more that kids have always been hyperactive
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek Wait, they make soft drinks?
 
3:01 AM
@Bob: erm.... yeah?
Pretty good root beer too.
 
Bob
o.O
 
Not as good as angus o'neil
oh, and of course, ginger beer.
I mean, its obvious they make ginger beer right?
 
Bob
Wait, I get the feeling I'm mixing them up with something else...
 
Bob
Oh.
Bundaberg Rum is a dark rum produced in Bundaberg, Australia. It is often referred to as "Bundy". The Bundaberg Distilling Company owns its own cola-producing facility, which supplies the cola for its ready-to-drink Bundaberg Rum and Cola products. == HistoryEdit == Bundaberg Rum originated because the local sugar mills had a problem with what to do with the waste molasses after the sugar was extracted (it was heavy, difficult to transport and the costs of converting it to stock feed were rarely worth the effort). Sugar men first began to think of the profits that could be made from distilling...
 
3:02 AM
there's TWO companies in bundaburg
One makes soft drinks, one makes rum
 
Bob
Yea, that's the one.
@JourneymanGeek Strangely, I think I see the ginger beer more often, so I'm not entirely sure why I thought of the rum first...
 
@Bob It's probably just an Australian thing :P
 
Bob
@MichaelFrank Heh. I don't drink (usually)
 
You have made too many incorrect reviews. For an example of a task you should have reviewed differently, see: superuser.com/review/first-posts/457990.
great
 
superuser.com/questions/995155/… people overthink things
@Insane: happens
 
3:11 AM
@JourneymanGeek but the only reason I downvoted it because I was familiar with the question and I thought the answer was a direct copy of yours. but it WAS yours LOL
 
@Insane: what was "wrong" with that answer to you?
.... rofl
 
yup.
sorry it was david's
but yeah
 
wait
for ONE review?
 
yes one review.
I can't remember the last fail I had :-/
 
Have I mentioned I think review audits are dumb?
 
3:13 AM
No but I agree since you can just click "link" and if the answer / question is missing then you know it's an audit.
 
(I've been banned 3 months before)
as a mod ;p
Of course this was when I was helping clear out the late answers queue
ya
erm
also
If its within a few hours there's a good chance its a review audit
 
If you're going to have review audits then go the distance. Temporarily add the answer (or question) back so if someone clicks "link" it'll be there.
 
@Insane Lololololol!
 
(Viewable only for the person doing the audit I mean. Hey it's not a bad idea!)
 
@Insane Interesting!
 
3:19 AM
@qasdfdsaq Oh no! Now now don't abuse the power.
 
@Insane I don't abuse nuffin!
 
;)
 
Most review audits catch me out in a different way
I'm more like "Huh? What? This makes no sense, flagged for quality and content but it's a page long and spot on?!"
"Does not compute. Skip."
 
Bob
@allquixotic Looks like the H815 got fixes for the newer "Stagefright" vulns
hmm... but I don't think the OTA update would work with my rooted copy
I'll need to figure something out shrug
 
Never knew you got bans for fucking up reviews though
 
Bob
3:25 AM
@qasdfdsaq Only temporary review bans, and only for audits.
Added shortly after the new review queues and badges were introduced, since some people were just clicking through them for badges.
I don't know if the review queues originally had daily limits or if that was also later added.
Hm... never knew my phone uses the screen as a heatsink => imgur.com/a/P5BtT
 
@Bob I'm taking mine as a vacation ;)
 
hmm
randomising button positions sounds like a nice way to troll catch robo reviewers
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek eh, too easy to counter
and still a pretty bad UX
 
@JourneymanGeek A simple captcha-bot would just find the buttons using OCR
 
@qasdfdsaq: That means actual effort
review audits are quite literally designed to catch people who keep hitting approve or reject for everything.
 
3:39 AM
Oh you mean robo-reviewers as in rob-people not actual robo-bots
I dunno why I ever thought automated review-bots would be a thing...
 
That would take an amazing amount of commitment
 
And pointless. A bot to click a button for only 20 reviews per day
Wow I even favorited the question that got me review banned LOL
 
@Bob I just got my Page Plus SIM card and activated it :D
it's "the solution" to my simultaneous data/voice problem on my iphone
 
Bob
@allquixotic Works well?
 
@Bob it should; same network as my iphone, just an MVNO instead of through verizon directly
I also ordered an LG Volt from FreedomPop but that will apparently take about a month to get here because they have a backlog of orders and they have to collect refurb devices, certify them, wipe them, flash them, put a SIM card in, and ship them out
which works out because I paid Page Plus for a month
FreedomPop is going to be $0/month for their 200 voice minutes plan, so that's much more economical for what I need it for
don't need even 1 Byte of data since I can just connect it to my iphone's wifi
FreedomPop is Sprint MVNO, but my area is blanketed in various pockets of Sprint 3G and 4G, so their voice quality should be solid

Might as well get a heavy-duty case for a more typical smartphone.
 
@bwDraco I had never seen this rugged case manufacturer before. I own about 3-4 otterboxes for various phones; the latest one on my iPhone 6S+ is quite good. Is the Pelican Voyager much different than the Otterbox Defender?
 
@allquixotic Pelican Products makes some of the toughest hard cases you'll ever find. Their cases are widely used for military and other specialized applications where the highest level of protection is required.
 
(and yeah, I mostly agree about it being interesting that a heavy industry company is in the smartphone market, but it does seem hella durable, and the waterproofing is something a case can't do)
 
I have a few of their smaller cases and can attest to their quality and durability.

It would only make sense for them to push into this market segment.

A case for a mouse? o_0

Q: How do I carry a mouse with me without damaging the middle mouse button or other buttons?

bwDracoAs a student, I need to carry a mouse with my laptop, but I often end up busting up mice within a year because the middle mouse button gets pressed on hard enough in my backpack to damage it in short order. I've gone through some good Logitech and Microsoft mice as a result of this, and I'm not a...

 
Can't say I've ever come across that problem. Only time I've busted a middle mouse button is when I dropped it on the floor.
 
@bwDraco thats kinda overboard :-) looking to me. when i ran my wearable i carried one of those tiny wirelesses in my pocket and never destroyed it, at $7 to replace it also would not have mattered.
 
@Psycogeek The case cost me about $20, plus about $6 for the foam insert.
 
what is (now) your total portable weight carry when using it, inc books and all?
 
4:56 AM
Around 35 lb most days. If I need to carry textbooks and a full camera kit, potentially 45+ lb.
 
is that with tripod?
 
I have a lightweight carbon-fiber monopod for sports photography when using my Pentax DA* 60-250mm lens. The lens is damaged, though, so I haven't had to use it in a while. (I'm falling back on a lower-grade lens until I can get it fixed.)
 
me thinks the future will be very good for fixing some of this , books no longer on paper, gadgets getting smaller and more powerfull, and some day even batteries with 2X power (hear me oh great pitri dish in the sky). My carry weight with a video setup when broadcast cameras were beastly and batteries (cheaper ones) were lead acid, was 75lbs in a great backpack.
 
@Psycogeek Yikes! I've never had to handle anything like an ENG camera.
I work with a traditional DSLR camera and a small selection of lenses.
 
we just had lightning storm, so the computer got a break from me, got a whole lot done, even in the rain.
 
5:16 AM
Whenever I travel with my mouse I just shove it at the bottom of my backpack then pile my keyboard and cables ontop of it. She's survived fine. huh.
It's an old Razer mouse and the buttons seem like they'd be easy to accidentally pry up, yet I've never had an issue.
 
heh, I've had shit luck with roccats
lovely mice, but I went through 2 before I gave up RMAing them
 
Honestly only reason I'm using a Razer is because they're the only damn manufacturer to make left handed mice.
Well, at least that was true when I got it.
 
lol
I'm a bit of a razer fanboy
 
I'm using the blackwidow ultimate too and I like it a lot
 
(razer mouse, 2 razer keyboards, though at some point in the future, I'll be handing over my personal one to my nephew and getting a code keyboard)
I've got a taipan, its nice but a little narrow for my paws.
 
5:20 AM
Yeah so you know what I mean about how it wouldn't be hard to accidentally pry up a mouse button ;)
 
BW's a 'classic'
Cherry blues, backlight, passthrough ports
 
I actually got my BW LITERALLY ONE WEEK before they came out with the Chroma edition for the SAME PRICE.
Made me really mad
 
lol
But the chroma dosen't have cherries
And this keyboard, I've had it for a few years so its sort of broken in just right.
Wired of course
Oh
and their soft mousepads are nice too
edge stitched
 
yeah. only thing I'll say about the blackwidow is that
on my old membrane keyboard I spilled water, coke, you name it on the thing. and it worked perfectly.
if i spill water on my blackwidow the thing won't work right till I dry it off
only benefit of a membrane keyboard. they work through anything lmao
;)
 
Also, you have wierd majors.
I approve ;p
 
5:49 AM
hmm what is a microsoft steaming pile service anyways :-)
 
@JourneymanGeek It's actually a minor in economics but yeah :P
 
ahh
I majored in computer forensics and information security management, with a second major in management.
 
6:05 AM
@JourneymanGeek dang thats pretty cool
 
6:26 AM
anyone know a location to aquire a install of ImgBurn that has no bundled crapware, supposedly there is a button to turn it off, not sure that worked as planned last time.
one of these programs had a sub-section where the program could be aquired off thier own site without a big (dumass) download button, in the back there somewhere, slightly hidden, but I did not find that there :-(
 
just use ninite
that should keep the crapware off
 
thats interesting, but no.
why 7zip will unpackage an iso , but not a bin ? so that is why i am back to imgburn.
yea see this is crasy, because i am having to accept a licence agreement for the evil "candy" crap, soo there better be a frilling button to select what to install, cause this sucks big long donkey things.
not in the "components selection" list, Arggggg. if that dev is lying (justifying it in the forum, by saying it is optional) i will keeel him
ahh a custom, doubble custom, bing, some addware blocker ??? WTF and pluto.
oops screwed up the tracing of the install, back to wing & Prayer mode :-P
 
Bob
7:08 AM
@allquixotic Thought you were going Moto E?
 
7:26 AM
Weird. I'm sure he mentioned the volt
 
Bob
@JourneymanGeek He mentioned both.
 
is it possible to do an image of an ISO from a bin , with this imgburn
i mean it is rather simple to make a cd/dvd especially here, but i just want to bust out the stupid bin.
 
Bob
Hm.
I always thought that's what an iso image did anyway...
 
ahh i see, so whoop this program upseide the head and get it to extract virtually :-) ahhh that is what a virtual mount is for. one more program, i have managed to avoid for so long.
(cause 7zip would just most wonderfully extract an iso)
i was going to try out this new virtual cd mounter thing for windows, it is tiny, vrses the other dameon things.
 
Bob
@Psycogeek I think it only works with iso? dunno.
 
7:37 AM
oh, that too. hmmm i think the dameon one did bin cue stuff.
 
Bob
probably, yea
 
ohh that virtual disk maker , i dont think it was for virtual CDs just general virtual disks.
f---it , just going to write a cuebin thing to a disk and see.
 
Bob
o.O
 
7:54 AM
this program is provided "AS IS" without . . . an uninstaller of any kind. . .. wait oh crap.
 
Bob
@Psycogeek I wonder if you would be able to mount it in a VM.
 
i use 2 button push method. click on CUE, imgburn , hit write , more praying.
imgburn has sooooo many buttons in it, i am scared to do my usual configuring.
38X speed , holy cow, i didnt know it could do that.
yay, now i can pull the files, and toss the CD .
not the smart method, but i am happy
autorun ---> trashcan, and all set.
 
8:18 AM
@Insane You failed a review on one of my answers?! What did you choose as the review option? ;)

@DavidPostill: he assumed someone copied your answer and downvoted ;p
 
@JourneymanGeek LOL ;)
Did he get review banned?
 
yeaaaah
 
Oh dear ... :(
 
He's cool with it
 
@DavidPostill Ugh. I was familiar with the question before the review came up and your answer in particular, so when I saw it I thought someone had copied your answer LOL. So I downvoted and was going to report it -.-
But it turns out it WAS your answer
