Not just 88, 18 (Adolf Hitler) is also a favourite, as we used to (I’d like to hope they’ve all grown up by now) have Combat18 in the UK.
However, I suspect now we’ve cracked their ingenious code, I’m assuming they’ve all scattered like cockroaches (I await the formation of Wombat29)

I’d have a word with your parents though - clearly creating what they saw as the leader of the 4th Reich.

I’ve got same CPU and res as you, but two 770s...
I mean I *want* a 1080... it’s faster, but can’t justify the upgrade as pretty much everything I want runs maxed out (ish).
The moment the 1080s land, the price of 2nd hand cards is going to plummet through the floor. Tempted to just get a 980Ti to replace both of mine,…

My favourite piece of TSA efficiency was spotted in Atlanta (I think).
They wanted to randomize a queue of people into the regular queue and a fast-track one - god knows why you’d randomize this, but *shrugs*
Agent has his little podium with in iPad on it.
He presses the screen and it randomly said left or right (in…

I think I wandered off topic, but OP said
“bullshit about the updates to Nexus Phones? The carrier of the phone has to approve the update before Google can send it along”
I should have just stuck to - “no they don’t”

Carrier testing is bullshit, agreed.
Skins are also bullshit (you can pop to google play and pick up any of dozens of launchers - including the ‘stock’ google one).
Where there used to be a difference was where a manufacturer would bake in a good solution to a ‘gap’ in stock android.
These fixed-gaps used to be why I’d…

Yep.
Or HP blocking windows updates.
Carriers have spent the last couple of decades shitting themselves over just “becoming dumb pipes”.
Unfortunately their efforts so far have merely compelled their users to wish they’d back off and “become dumb pipes”.

But you did mention Nexus, rather than Android.
AFAIK the whole point of Nexus phones was the update goes direct from google to you (no network-specific versions of Nexus phones)

What do you imagine they’re doing in those 10 days?
ATT is a GSM network, the planet’s covered with them, using the same kit as ATT. There’s nothing for ATT to check.
(admittedly though 10 days is pretty good, compared to how long others take to do their nothing).

Indeed.
Problem is that some carriers get their own fork of the code, from say Samsung - and then are in control of the updates.
Simple way around this is to buy the phone unlocked (i.e. stock ROM) - or flash it to a non-carrier version and henceforth receive the updates whenever Samsung (or whoever makes your phone)…

Actually - I almost agree with you.
I don’t think Apple has ever “given us all” anything great, but they’ve certainly called time on the legacy stuff that the PC world was happy to support despite nobody using it much.
Where I have concern is around their (maybe newfound) desire to restrict. They pulled serial ports…

Nope - my mouse buttons have multiplied, not reverted to a single one.

I shit you not, that’s the main use I have for voice input on my android watch.
Wandering out of the kitchen (where you’re not the tool that talks to your watch in public) and just telling it to set the timer for 30 mins, is pretty good.
Now - buying a dedicated device that only sits in one place to do this…

With you entirely.
My POV is that I’ve been a self-hating smoker for a decade or so, and vaping is what’s allowed me to cut back. Not patches or any of the other bazillion half-arsed things my socialist government handed out for free (to me, but literally billions to pharma out of my taxes).

Ah - But as an old-man I’ve yet to accept competitive e-sports as I thing I even give a toss about.
I love Battlefield and more recently Rocket-League, and I’ve put many many hundreds of hours into both.
I accept I’m mediocre at best (when sober) - but play because I enjoy it and the company of those I play with.
I’ve…

As a vaper, just wanted to say I agree with you.
I’ve been that drunken tool on the other side of the bar toking smugly on my vape, and then noticing the cloud drifting across to somebody eating some food.
I don’t think it’s a health issue, but definitely bad-manners in a shared environment.

To be a (vaping) dick about this - I’d like some research done.
Working 8 hour shifts in an environment where this stuff was being used on an industrial scale is clearly different to whatever I inhaled in my pretentious “Mother’s Milk” e-liquid.
However after this came out MM adjusted the formula to remove it, and it…

Ultimate?
Here’s my crack at it (just for e-cigarettes).
Vaping is different to smoking, in that nothing is burnt. Liquid in, liquid’s heated, it turns to pretty vapour - like your kettle boiling water, by way of a night-club smoke machine (and ultimately turns back to the same liquid when it cools).
What you’re heating…

There’s double energy, but only as there are two cars.
Being two cars though, there’s twice as much absorbing it.

Still, doesn’t work like that if you’re hitting a truck.
