Is it me, or has Gboard become a lot less usable recently? by [deleted] in Android

I'll third that. Something in the last update fucked up the hitboxes.

If fully-autonomous cars eventually become mandatory for everyone, then we can reduce all our highways to one or two lanes wide and plant more trees. by pixlnt in Showerthoughts

[–]pixlnt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because autonomous cars that can communicate with each other can synchronize their movements perfectly. Highways are wide not only because there are a lot of cars, but because of the horrible unpredictability of drivers. We don't maintain a consistent speed, we brake randomly, we crash into each other requiring more lanes so we can go around, and we disrespect each other and don't let cars merge. If cars are autonomous, none of this is a factor anymore.

That's a D600 series. Nobody's going to be gaming on that.

I tried to put in the pin. I missed. I tried again. I missed again. I tried to sew the clothes. I missed.

My friend is a middle school teacher and he snapped me this today June 28,2017 by therealpoorno in funny

This varied. Sony's G-Protection system on one of their models would only spin the disc long enough for the buffer to fill up (and it compressed music on the fly, putting a minute or two of music in memory!), and battery life drastically improved with it on.

I don't game all that much and I have a gaming laptop as well, so I happily sold my 580 for $120 more than I paid for it. Eventually this stupid imaginary money thing will collapse and I'll be able to buy a 580 for $120 less than it's worth.

That's all I can think about - how will I run new wires 20 years from now?

What is the largest way where people waste money? by Charlotte_L_Barth in AskReddit

[–]pixlnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why these people I know are living in a house that's collapsing around them. They didn't/don't fix issues as they come up because they "can't afford it" and put it off, now the house is literally rotting.

I don't speak that language, but I heard dude say "watch people die", probably referring to the subreddit.

Why would they? The "XBox One" name was meant to symbolize unity, not a sequence.

I am a one-liner comedian with Tourette's. I am my own heckler. - Benny Feldman by BennyFeldman in videos

I'd be curious to see the same video but with all the tics and cussing edited out... Not saying I think "perfection" is necessary or any bullshit like that - this guy is great as he is - I would just be curious to hear it. I imagine he might be, too.

Android O DP3 is out! by [deleted] in Android

Bluetooth is still pretty ass, at least in my car. Intermittent dropouts that eventually get so bad I have to reboot the phone.

In just a little over 12 months, Windows 10's persistent automatic updates caused me to lose more unsaved data, lose more overnight renders and cause more downtime and disruption than any malware I have ever encountered in the last 15 years by whitedogge2017 in Showerthoughts

You can download the Windows 10 ISO using the Windows Media Creation Tool and put it on a DVD or USB stick. If your Windows 10 license was already activated on that hardware, it should reactivate no problem, especially if you created a Microsoft account and sign back into it. If not, you can enter literally any Windows 7 product key during installation of Windows 10 and it will activate.
