Goddamn, they just keep doing stuff I thought was impossible. Also goddamn, Clutch is one hell of a band to witness live. Neil has the most amazing and energetic stage presence, it's such a blast to watch them give it 110% all the way through. Now, if only people at concert could behave themselves, that would be great. I was all the way at the front, a little to the side, so I was out of the worst of the stagediving, moshing, jumping and pushing zone. But first this stupidly drunk dude just kept jumping around and flailing his arms about, hitting people and generally getting on everyone's nerves. Every time the security guys told him to stop, he would just make like "yeah sure whatever" and start up again seconds after they looked away. Them they tried sending him to the back, but he just kept barging to the front. I think they ended up throwing him out. And then just a couple of minutes later, some monumental Swedish* jackass just grabbed the rail next to be and tried to forcibly jam himself in so he could push me out of the way. Of course, I'm a big guy and I was still a little pissed off about the other idiot, so I was having none of it (and neither were any of the guys next to me). Then he got all "welcome to rock concerts in Copenhagen, get used to it" on me. I loving live here, you monumental shitlord. I live and breathe all the rock/metal concert venues around here. Get the gently caress out of my city if you're just going to shows to be an rear end in a top hat and piss people off. I was at the venue early so I could be at the very front because I loving love this band, I stayed here during the two warmup bands' sets, I specifically didn't go to grab beer or anything else because I wanted to be at the front when Clutch played. Don't loving show up in the middle of the set and try to barge your way to the very front. You showed up late, tough luck. Find some space further back. * No offense to Swedes in general, you're usually totally awesome and friendly at concerts. And a couple of big friendly Swedish dudes did manage to surround the jerkass in question and move him away, so I made sure one of them got my spot at the barrier when I went to the bar for another beer for the last 4-5 songs. Goddammit, going to a concert is supposed to be fun, and yeah there's going to be some bumping and moshing and whatnot at the front. But there's a huge difference between good-natured bumping and mean-spirited shoving and barging in. Rant over, I guess. KozmoNaut fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Dec 5, 2015 |

Since bandwidth needs aren't going down I kind of figured that both are going to continue to be used in similar scenarios. edit: one time in another chat thread somebody said they were installing cameras that required CAT-7. I'm kind of curious what kind of camera requires that bandwidth.

JohnTV, the vigilante weirdo whose mission in life is to capture on film prostitution in Oklahoma City, has upgraded to drone technology: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trJ9pzZS3ao&t=252s Frankly, it's a hilariously effective and invasive use of drones. The launch and hunting around takes me back to when I first played Ghost Record Advanced Warfighter. My favorite thing about his videos, though, is that he uses the same riff at the moment of busts (5:35) as the intro to AutoCar videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb7hVioA7TI which I regard as the English MotorWeek.

Had some issues with the memory, system wouldn't post when the memory was installed per the MB manual, so I pulled one DIMM, and it posted fine. I put the DIMM back into a different slot, and also worked fine. So either I've got a bad DIMM slot, or the way the manual suggests staggering them is a bad thing. Got my old boot drive formatted and currently transferring back all my pictures and crap from another drive. System now boots off of a 500GB Samsun EVO 850 SSD, and unless the godawful noisy DVD is running, it's quiet as hell now. Guess it's time to break down and buy Fallout 4 and see how it plays. I did screw up and when I switched the build from a GTX970 to a 980, I didn't notice that the outputs on the card changed, so I'm running on two monitors since I am short one cable (was running two DVI's & an HDMI before, and this card has 1 DVI, 1 HDMI, and 3 x displayport). Have 2 displayport cables on the way. If you are still interested in my leftovers from the old build, let me know what interests you and we'll work something out. Coolermaster case and CPU Cooling (air). Intel i5-750 CPU, Gigabyte motherboard, Corsair TX750w PS, EVGA GTX 770 4gb video. I have an extra loud as gently caress DVD/CDRom too.

Sounds like it's an issue with the CPU memory controller or with something on the board. I bet that it fails whenever it's in dual channel mode, and by mixing up the slot configuration you forced it into single channel mode. Might want to do some additional testing while you can still RMA things, if necessary. IIRC, in dual channel mode the RAM gets run at faster timings too, so maybe that's part of it. I guess that depends on the sticks in question, though.

Might want to do some additional testing while you can still RMA things, if necessary. It's an LGA 1151 Z170 chipset motherboard. The manual says to put two DIMMs into slots A2 and B2, which won't post. I pulled the B2 DIMM and it posted fine. I put the other DIMM into A1, so that they are now in A1 and A2, and it posts fine. The memory is CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200). Another interesting thing is that the BIOS shows the memory at 2133mhz, where I thought 2400 was the native speed for the Skylake board, but I could be completely wrong about that, I'll have to do some more research. I really don't want to RMA this because it would be a huge pain in the rear end, but I'll play with different configurations and see what I can figure out. I might contact Newegg and see if I can purchase a replacement and then have them credit this one if it looks like it's a problem. Still a pain in the rear end to rebuild the system, but at least I wouldn't be completely down for a while.

I just looked up the manual for the ASUS Z170-A, and it says to do what you did. Try A1 and B1; if that works, it's a bad slot. If it doesn't, it's something else and likely is activated by being in dual channel mode (equal capacities on channel A and B). With both on channel A, some of the available bandwidth is not being used. I'll have to check XHD for those sticks and see if they behave differently in single and dual channel.

I work for the mobility side of the company now, but when I was working on the wireline side we were beginning to install equipment with the ability to multiplex 88 10Gbps channels onto a single fiber circuit, or use the circuit to carry a 40Gbps or 100Gbps channel. literally a fish posted:Keep in mind that most ISP-grade fibre isn't ethernet at layer-2, it's PON which isn't the same. Fibre is never going away in the carrier world, not until we work out how to break the speed of light anyway. PON is used in the last mile for FTTP service, not the backbone. It's not really a protocol, either. Most new backbone fiber equipment uses the G.709 OTN protocol at the physical layer; older equipment uses SONET.

Yep, I'll try that tomorrow along with all other combo's. I only went with the grey slots because that's what the manual showed as the preferential placement for 2 DIMMs. My instinct was to use the other pair first, but I was being silly and reading the manual because I haven't kept up with hardware changes at all for the last few years.

I did a complete bachelor thing and swapped out my bed for a futon.  The bed was a lumpy, stained, smelly horrorshow though. I don't even want to think about how many bodily fluids it had in it... and being a pillowtop, you couldn't just flip it and pretend everything was gone (the other side was rock hard.. unlike me). The futon is actually pretty drat comfortable. Especially for $300. Completely lovely frame, but the mattress is easily what most of the cost was, and I can replace the frame whenever it starts sagging with one from Amazon. It's also cat approved.
