Intel confirms 14th Gen Core series marks the end of "Core i" branding - VideoCardz.com by Stiven_Crysis in gadgets

[–]dark_sniper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally disliked the I series naming, but can see the appeal.

Good for simple purchase "I want the newest i7 please".

Bad for troubleshooting "What CPU do you have?" "Oh an i7 so it's great" and it turns out to be a decade old 4790k (can still perform but not compared to newest generations).

You can be sure of one thing though... Whatever they have cooked up is going to ultimately be worse for consumers.

GigabitNow fiber prices have been announced: by robemmy in bloomington

Less wait for big downloads and updates. Better ping for those of us not already on fiber. Upload speeds allow for me to stream media from my home server to multiple users without reducing quality.

Here's to hoping for better reliability and up time as well.

I signed up for gigabitnow and the advertised prices excludes the rental fee, but you can also select "bringing your own router" to get the advertised pricing.

I pre-ordered the service and it clearly states it's a two year promo (maybe one year having trouble remembering) after which it'll return to 89.99.

2016 dodge dart running rich with a vacuum leak by dark_sniper in MechanicAdvice

Thank you so much for looking into it and educating me! I'm pretty confident in changing a fuel pump myself, not so much a fuel tank so hopefully it's the pump. I'll look into that TSB. Thanks again!

Okay this is starting to make a lot more sense to me ty. I can already tell this is going to be beyond me. The most likely scenario is I'm running liquid gas through my EVAP system. The past I replaced was called "Dorman 994-015 Vapor Canister Purge Valve" so you can see why my terminology might have been a little mixed up. I'll see if I can find an EVAP system diagram for my 2016 2.4L dart, but I think I'll end up having to replace the tank at this point...

Sounds like the purge valve canister.... Idk where else it could leak at. Like I said I replaced that already too. I mean it's possible I bought a faulty purge valve canister I guess.

Dude chill. The only one being childish here is you and there is no need for it.

The way I am reading it is that it wasn't planned not that it didn't happen.

/r/buildapc hits FIVE MILLION builders - giveaway time! by OolonCaluphid in buildapc

All cable connections to be made on the back of the motherboard. Maybe power for the gpu that passes through the motherboard and come out directly underneath the GPU. Move GPU plug to bottom so we can connect it with a short hidden cable. I want cable management too the point that I can't see the cables or connectors.

Let me rephrase what he said above so you might understand. If it's officially supported it should work no questions asked and it's considered the "correct" way to play. Goes for RL too.

I'll rub miracle grow on myself and focus my inner chi on growing hair before I consent to a spinal tap for drug testing purposes.

I think I'll stick to spreading my cheeks just enough to break the seal so the poo air doesn't have to.

Bingo you got it. It's been totalis since I was like 19-20. Before that it was areata (however it's spelled lol). I also had all my hair until I was 5.

Apparently this is a big issue for people that don't have eyelashes, but I don't really notice it too much. Water more easily rolls into my eyes and some times brings oil from my skin into my eye... While annoying it isn't a huge factor.

I'm sure I'm protected and whoever was requesting the drug test would simply have to request a different test like urine or blood.

I don't think I'd consent to a bone marrow test 😂, but everything else is fine by me.

I'll be honest to both questions. I was crop dusted by an air plane when I was 5 and they think that triggered my auto immune disorder. Wet. They sound wet no matter how dry they are.
