It’s definitely a crappy position to be in. When you don’t really have to lift a finger to get good grades, when you actually NEED to study to do well on something you have no idea where to start. I bombed my first attempt at college because of it, but now I at least set aside the time to do the work I need for the…

It’s probably worth it to wait for the GTX 10-series (1060/70/80) to come out, the lowest of which, the 1060, will be enough for those games. However, once those do drop, you can expect some killer deals on the last gen, so it might be worth it to look for something with a 970 or 980 in the coming weeks.

For what you’re looking at? Frankly, most onboard graphics are going to handle that.

The new class of gpu’s just came out so hold off for a few weeks. Anything with a gtx 1060 should be more than enough for mobile gaming at 1080p.

My husband worked for a rental car company many years ago, and people left weird shit in cars all the time. But the strangest was a car that was booked for a trip to Vegas, never returned, reported stolen and was eventually found in a hotel parking lot. It contained a picture of the renters at Hearst Castle, about…

“Accuracy” =/= human intelligence. The human brain is not computable. The whole assumption behind AI is, in the words of Turing, that our ability to think is independent from the things we associate with humans - fear, love, anxiety, desires, aspirations, etc - except that’s been demonstrated to be wrong. People with…

Yeah, this site also has a good comprehensive overview:

You have obviously come across one of my spreadsheets. I am sorry and laughing maniacally at the same time.

Empowered with the knowledge I’ve gained in this article, I have decided that the job opportunity you have offered is just not the right decision for me at this time.

Very. I’ve been using Melodyne on studio recordings for nearly ten years. The first thing I did with it was to change a chorus that I hated for a rap tune, and I changed the lyrics and the tune in the process of making the vocal sound better. That was my first sensation of horror. I’d love to know what the session…

From someone who knows, because this is what I do:

You should try the GoT mod for Crusader Kings 2.

You’ll sadly have to make do with CK2 mods.

I live in Knoxville. Let me put this in perspective. A friend of mine lives in one of the fancy, upscale suburbs. One of those places you go because the schools are so good. He and his wife bought a house a couple years ago. They couldn’t find anything smaller than 3000 square feet and 6 bedrooms. They paid under…

Man, we talked SO MUCH shit about Scalia.

I honestly and seriously can’t tell if she’s merely a female corollary of a Chris Tucker or Tracy Morgan, in terms of style and presentation of personality and blackness as an individual representation of slapstick and silliness.

Well, prior to the days of the Hornet and Viper, everyone wanted maximum speed. Critics came about for any jet slower than an F-4. But 4th gen fighters adapted to the need and an operational speed at mach 2 wasn’t necessary.

Actually Llama, the Gripen is probably more expensive than the F35 aswell.

Well, they are projected to cost $85 million per copy once full scale production starts. They are at $105 million for the latest batch, so that’s a reasonable number. That’s cheaper than any 4th gen fighter except the F-18 SH (similar) and the Gripen ($76 million). While true that its raw performance numbers are not…
