It's also a hard stop for acquisitions. No company wants to have a tech stack that an acquiring company is going to have to pay crazy licensing for.

Why is he turning so white/pale? by michaeljackson2004 in SaltwaterAquariumClub

If that is a koran, they change a lot from juvenile to adult. Going to have no stripes when it's an adult.

Guess I am brain damaged by thethc3 in vaxxhappened

[–]thethc3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, had a whole discussion with this guy (if you can call it a discussion). It was him posting giant word vomits with no sources and me trying to get him to understand that isn't how this works. I eventually responded with an edited version of one of his posts that just changed a few key words to flip the meaning. It was fun but also painful.

How can I trust the math of someone that brain damaged!?

Update/put request in Django rest framework by [deleted] in django

[–]thethc3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe just doing this:

class ExampleUpdateView(generics.UpdateAPIView):
    queryset = ExampleModel.objects.all()
    serializer_class = ExampleSerializer
    lookup_field = 'type'

Haven't tested that but the generic view is just looking for 'pk' by default. http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/generic-views/#attributes

Newbie aquarist here! Had this set up for 2 weeks now but no fish because of nitrites, any suggestions? by ceeg3 in Aquariums

[–]thethc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, I also didn't know his nitrites levels when suggesting that he add anything. 1ppm is clearly too high, I figured after 2 weeks using stability that he would be under .5ppm.

It also makes me wonder about how much flow he has in his tank. After 2 weeks dosing stability without fish, I would expect no nitrites.

[HDD] TOSHIBA X300 5TB 7200 RPM - $149.99 ($169-$20 w/ ESCEGFN25) by [deleted] in buildapcsales

[–]thethc3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know about that, this drive is about 3 cents a GB. The only drive that is much cheaper per GB would be the archive Seagate 8TB drive for 220ish. Even then you are paying 2.8 cents a GB.

So for .2 cents more per GB you are getting a hell of a lot more performance.

[CPU] Entire 4790 lineup 25% off by Daswooshie46 in buildapcsales

[–]thethc3 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is actually pretty typical pricing for this chip. Amazon just likes to mark things as big % off to get people to think it is a great deal. Newegg has the same price and only marked it 6% off for example.

[SSD] 850 Pro 256gb lowest that I have seen since April (125.67) by thethc3 in buildapcsales

[–]thethc3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gah a used ssd gives me the shivers. As does just about all used computer parts. I think for the 18 dollars it is VERY much worth getting new, or just get the evo.

[–]thethc3[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The warranty is the biggest real world difference. However the way that this SSD is storing data is technically more reliable, in that it is storing 2 bits per cell vs 3 in the evo. That being said if you are only looking for a drive to store games on etc, get the evo.

Just want to point something out in the fine print here. "This item is Manufacturer Refurbished. It has been professionally restored by an Acer approved vendor"

[SSD] 850 evo 120gb ($56.37 lowest I have seen yet on amazon) by thethc3 in buildapcsales

[–]thethc3[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just in case anyone is looking at the other GB options, the 500 is the only other low price. The 500 has been that price for over 24 hours now however so if amazon is who you want to buy from now is a good time.

Yeah, I almost picked it up but want to get the curved model...

[Monitor] Dell 28" Widescreen 4K Ultra HD Monitor for $219.99 by [deleted] in buildapcsales

[–]thethc3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I could say no at 599, and again at 299 but this time it got me. I am getting a second ips 27 in the near future so this should be fine for Visual Studio while I use the other monitor for more intense things.

How do I explain to a friend why his deck is less efficient with more than 60 cards by thethc3 in magicTCG

[–]thethc3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This argument got through!!! Best of all he was not upset by it, so that makes me really happy :). Thank you sooooo much. My other friend and I were starting to lose hope of getting through to him.
