I so happy to know there are other people that experience this. When I try to explain to people that I can hear a CRT TV with with no sound/muted just because it's on they think I'm crazy.

Awesome story! I'm actually going to Koya-san this weekend to shoot footage for a video I'm making on Kansai. Any suggestions on where to go on the mountain and surrounding area?

If it's a Jeep with the 4.0 you'll be waiting a long time for that engine failure.

Clearly seeing you're from /g/ I'll reply. I used to be Thinkpad hardcore too. I switched to Mac when my x200/x201 hybrid that I built died (fell off the top of a server rack) and work bought me an MBPr. I'm p

Yes, this is the case in most of all VFX and animation studios. Pretty much everything is done on Linux, usually CentOS. That being said 8GB is a joke. 32GB is minimum and 64GB is what new machines would be ordered with for almost all artis

I used Flickr for a long time but moved to 500px as the whole site is just significantly better than Flickr. So no not anymore I guess. Why would I use Yahoo for anything?

This is certainly one of the more useful nuggets of knowledge I've picked up from HN. Thanks.

I see this train of thought in Apple-centric forums like MacRumors and here on HN. The typical "I can't believe Apple is doing X!" or the "Why hasn't Apple upgraded X yet, Apple is dead! I'm moving to X company

I'll be keeping tabs on this event just to keep alive the small glimmer of hope that they'll release the new MBP.

I know exactly how you felt. I was diagnosed with ADHD, OCD, and tourettes quite young, my mother and father separated when I was very young, and my mother had the habit of moving to a new town every 2 years. All of this lead to a less-than

From my sample size of one, myself, I was diagnosed with ADHD quite young, as well as tourettes and OCD to add into the mix. I had no problem focusing on school work when it was interesting. Then again, when is school work ever interesting?

I think most people knew something along these lines would happen when Facebook bought Oculus. This doesn't at all surprise me and I fully expect it to get worse. What's frustrating is when people would say anything negative about

I have to agree. I can only feel like this is pollution or another EEE attempt.

This is far more interesting to me than a cut down 1080 in an oversized laptop that takes its design cues from Transformers. I'd like to know too.

Trying to rent in Vancouver is insane. Lat time I looked I had to schedule to look at places in groups. It takes mere hours for a rental to go from an AD to rented. Bidding wars are becoming more common. Top it off with the "renovictio

It's off-putting how he mentions "business won't like this". Like, they're the only market that matters. This aligns pretty well with my negative experiences with Microsoft products. It's an all businessmen&#x2

You sound incredibly biased, even if unconsciously. I've not had even close to the same experience you have. You even feed into the power draw crap.

This is also true of other filesystems however. I don't have experience with high IO on ZFS at those rumored 80%+ capacities however once a core filer fills up to 90% you start seeing the tickets rolling in and application performance

What are the few warts you encounter? I'm a Sysadmin/Engineer at a VFX company. We have hundreds of machines, render, and servers all running Linux but we're typically on ext4 with the notable exception of our Isilon cluster.

As soon as the Ad-Network zeitgeist gets their grubby hands on this any potential future of a good gaming experience is gone. The game isn't great by itself, but the idea is gold and mated with the perfect franchise. I've been loy

From what I understand from the conference is that facial recognition is done locally on device and not transmitted. They said that quite clearly. There is probably some specifics I'm missing though, and it raises the question about ho

Piracy has always been a convenience problem and only partly a cost problem. Pirating content is the easiest, fastest, highest quality, and most available method of watching content. The price is just a nice bonus. Digital restrictions hurt

It can't be a coincidence. I hope they pass the bill next year on this day. I'll be booking work off and heading to the Art Gallery for that one.

Yes. I agree. That's exactly what I've been arguing for. Maybe you should read my many arguments in this topic again. I'm arguing against people claiming that this will be used for taking down of news articles and censorship.

I'll try and explain it in my point of view from an event that happened to me. I was doing a job interview when I was younger and it was going well. I got scheduled in for a second interview. Right before my second interview I got a ca

No, this is not a censorship law. This is about private individuals requesting potentially harmful or embarrassing information from being propagated and easily searchable. This is putting power into the private citizens hand. This is not a
