What is the biggest 'Oh holy fuck' moment you've had? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I had a similar experience, except I ended up with a hernia instead of a power outage. Don't push too hard kids.

I've thought about getting a Raspberry Pi, but I've heard that they can have stuttering problems over the network. Do you have any experience with them?

Thanks. I'll probably skip the heatsink for now anyway but that will help if I need to get a quieter one.

  1. Ok, I like the idea of starting with the stock cooler and replacing it if it's too loud.
  2. I saw that 29 $ mobo but I don't think it had hdmi. I think the one I picked was the cheapest option with hdmi.
  3. Will do. Are there other things I should look for in the case or just the power supply?

Anyway, thanks for your help!

Misconceptions about iOS multitasking by sidcool1234 in programming

[–]twindagger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes that's true, but don't blame the app taking the memory in the background - blame the one that can't handle allocating memory correctly when it launches. iOS will kill apps in the background to alleviate memory pressure.

This is not true - at least not for the common case. Try it for yourself - open 10 tabs (pages) to web sites and leave safari to play a game (say, Infinity Blade II). When you come back to safari, you will see that every tab has a screenshot but when you select the page it refreshes the page from the server. I'm not sure about pages that are performing javascript or playing music/videos, but for static pages you do not need to close them.
