Not the best out there but not terrible.
That's pretty solid for the money.

Figured I would give a heads up since a lot of people seemed in to Demo-2. This is the first official mission following the last test flight, which is what Demo-2 was. Coverage just started, actual launch is scheduled for 7:27PM EST

Would you be against a recount of mail in ballots with a dem and republican verifying each vote?
They already do that and did that my guy. One Republican, One Democrat, Two Independents.

If it really is true that Fox News anchors are being told not to refer to Biden as "President-elect" if he gets it, thats like nuclear level shitty.
-
How anybody can continue to stand behind orange man after what just aired to the world minutes ago I will NEVER understand.
Many of them aren’t. Several key Republicans have said “Nah fuck that, we’re counting everything.” Undermining a main part of being American, the right to vote, is not smart.

As serious as Trump saying coyotes are bringing children across the border
Uh look, I'm not usually involved in politics, but you know those ARE called coyotes, right?
-
Not yesterday..the line just to get in was forever, but what I will say is when I got out a little after 10 the line was smaller as was the line of cars coming in.
I was there yesterday lol
-
Just a reminder that you can do an absentee ballot and drop it off directly at the board of elections. They have a drive through right in front of the giant ass early voting line, and I was in an out in 30 seconds. Got the stickers and everything.

I'd love to see bigger breakthroughs in battery tech that use different materials and shrink the size more.
Tesla just had their 'battery day' which solves basically all these, but they said its gonna be a couple of years before its ready.
It should also quell the "EvS aRe WoRsE fOr ThE eNvIrOnMeNt ThAn IcE eNgInEs" idiots, especially since they are ditching cobalt all together.

Will be interesting how this stuff plays out. Will be sold through GMC dealers, so I look forward to getting one at work.
I however doubt you’ll want one at 7-10 years, maybe if the value plummets it will be worth it, but I can’t see GM pushing anything to be long lasting and old batteries will scare people off. Will be interesting either way.
FWIW, Model S batteries have had pretty great degradation over time, and there has been a huge aftermarket around Teslas created to keep the older one's up to date and running. Even Tesla itself sells upgrades for its older models. I imagine if the Hummer EV's take off the same would happen.
-
Fuck I can't wait to actually be able to afford something lmao. An EV truck is really what I've been waiting for, the Cybertruck is a bit too over the top for me. The Hummer isn't much better, but it is better.
Also master stroke of genius turning Hummer into an EV brand, taking what was basically the poster child of $4.00/gal gas and turning it around.

What you gonna do with that old one?
-
Basically any carrier's policy is it has to be on the network for X amount of days, then it auto unlocks. I think Verizon's is 90 days for example. Otherwise, there are services you can pay to unlock it but they are pretty sketchy. I just gifted my old Verizon iPhone 7 Plus to my mom who just switch to T-Failboat and it worked just fine, just missing a couple of their LTE frequencies.

I just did the front two on my 2002 Tahoe, I bought 2 POWER STOP 515036 from Rock Auto for $30 each. Seemed like pretty good quality when I put them on.
-
I was recently gifted a 2002 Tahoe 4WD from my father in law after I kind of fell in love with it after servicing it for him. I actually ended up selling my 17 Civic to Carmax, I felt nothing for that car compared to the truck. No car payment and I can actually haul stuff without having to borrow a truck from someone or rent from somewhere.
-
It sold out while i was trying to get the checkout working :\
-
Series S available on xbox.com NOW, go go go...
I've tried to do it and check out, but the processes like bugs out. Says "too many login attempts" when it I try to check out even though I was already logged in to my Microsoft account.
-
I wanna get a PS5 and a Series S, but haven't had luck yet.

You have to enable hardware acceleration in the CLI to get the full performance out of Ubiquiti products. I agree its horseshit we have to do that as well, but I feel your pain. I have an Edge Router X. Probably going to put together a pfSense box or configure a Cisco router to take it's place, then I'm going to punt this piece of shit into the ocean.

Edit: Look in to seeing if "netflow" is enabled too, which I read gets enabled by default when UNMS is connected to it or something. Apparently that will also cause hardware offloading to be disabled.

Anywhere Cordell is, although he only does Corvettes now from what I understand.
-
I'm still here, I'll update ASAP. Cliffnotes: I got a new truck and have been servicing family member vehicles, and in my spare time I've been trying to get my AWS certifications. I have to stuff to post, I just need to do it. Its actually quite a bit of effort to make the write ups and format the img codes and whatnot.
Thanks for being patient!

Man I am behind on updates, but also I haven't done a lot the last few weeks. I've spent the last few weekends working on family member's cars. More on that soon. Hopefully since everything has settled down again, maybe I can do some stuff this weekend.

Oh boy, where do I start.
Hi, professional here. Please don't ever, ever, ever, ever, ever use UserBenchmark for comparing anything. They have a very clear Intel bias, and have been banned from both r/Intel and r/AMD on Reddit as well as other PC communities for being complete bullshit. When AMD started curb stomping Intel a couple years ago, they changed their rules so that Intel still wins, no matter what the actual performance is.
Memory amount is, in absolutely no way, a measure of performance. However, for gaming, 16GB should be your target minimum in 2020. That said, my spare R5 1600AF machine that I have hooked up to a TV has 8GB and still plays everything modern just fine. Also, the 8GB machine you posted has faster memory, and Ryzen loves fast memory.
The 200 mhz difference between the Ryzen 5 2600 and the Ryzen 5 3600 isn't the reason the 3600 is better. No one is going to notice 200 mhz difference on a CPU. The real reason the 3600 is better is because the Zen 2 architecture it is running is much faster than the 2600's Zen+ architecture. This means that for a given clock speed (lets say both were running 3.5 ghz for simplicity), the R5 3600 can do more work for the given speed its running. This is called "Instructions Per Clock", or IPC. However, for casual gaming, either one is just fine. My personal gaming rig has a 2600 in it.
GPU memory at the prices you are looking at isn't really important. We are talking lower end 1080p gaming either way, and the 1650 and the RX 580 perform pretty closely, with the 580 being just barely ahead. GPU memory only matters at higher resolutions where assets are larger in size. What matters is raw compute.
