On the lower end SRX models, the ASICs are only used for L2 forwarding, even in the current generation. The SRX4600s are where the ASIC-based traffic inspection shows up.

I am entirely unsurprised that the charismatic darling sales guy of shady defunct retailer NCIX is a scumbag.VostokProgram posted:How is the waterblock thing not theft? It sounds like it'd be classified as "theft by conversion", which is basically theft via selling something you don't actually own. Like if you rented a Lamborghini for a week and sold it to a chop shop (a thing that some incredibly stupid people do).

Tech wages in Vancouver are poo poo and being the cover-up guy for Linus is probably pretty lucrative.

Wendell would be on Team Steve as well, which means we need to find the opposite of Wendell for Team Linus. Maybe some YouTuber who still uses hacked together pirated versions of Windows 7 and has to reformat weekly to clear out the malware because he still refuses to upgrade.

Calling it now: Linus is slowly working towards trying to revive what he thought of as the glory days of NCIX, just with him at the helm. The LMG empire will collapse because nobody wants NCIX back and the already dwindling role of "fairly helpful brick and mortar computer parts shop" has been fulfilled not only in Vancouver but all across Canada extremely well by Memory Express (who snapped up a bunch of NCIX's abandoned leases during the bankruptcy lol).

They originally moved in NCIX's old digs near Coquitlam Centre but then moved a few blocks over into a massive space. Yeah, if the ME in Langley doesn't have what I'm looking for I'll usually just drive out to the Canada Computers in poco instead. Not that far of a trek and chances are if there's something you need, it's somewhere in there.

The DankPods/Garbage Time guy also streams regularly there, successfully at that (though he's also a dogecoin millionaire so the impact of Floatplane going tits up wouldn't be as high for him)

It's in that weird limbo between Surrey and Langley, iirc. Conveniently it's also a 15 minute drive for me, so we can meet up at LTT and shout LOG OFF LINUS then go for a pint!  e: Google Maps says 188th and 52nd or thereabouts.

I seem to recall that he got axed but maybe I'm thinking of someone else from the BC news. Global's website still lists him as the Sports Director so maybe he just isn't on camera anymore. Or maybe he is and I haven't actually watched the news hour at 6 in a decade. Ok Comboomer posted:Apropos of nothing, why is 8-bit guy persona non grata here? Is it his 2A weirdness?

Their website did not have any explanation for why I would pay $100 for what looked like a small bit of aluminum and elastic. $30 or $40 sure yeah, but $100 seemed absolutely ridiculous. I guess their ad did it's job of getting me curious enough to click though. But think of the value you get for bundling their highest priced wallet with a matching key holder! You save almost a hundred dollars bringing your total down to just $325!

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:Yeah the early videos were great, I loved the Cammaster, but I felt like he crawled up his own rear end and lost me at some point. Every ultimate project car he's owned he's gotten bored with and moved onto the next one within a couple years. The Falcon only lasted as long as it did because it was an absolute shitheap (apart from the exterior) that needed three years of time in Bruce Henn's garage before it could go further than a hundred miles without needing ten litres of fluids replaced. I haven't watched any recent ones because at some point they stopped being funny yet somewhat informative reviews of the experience of driving a car and turned into thirty minute video essays about postmodernism, and if I wanted absolute audiovisual wankery for my car youtubes I'd watch Doug DeMuro or that VINwiki cannonball run shithead.

A few years ago Wade got super lucky and iirc found an old hard drive with a fat dogecoin wallet on it, so he stopped worrying about being a gigging jazz drummer and combined that with the patreon to go full hog and start a few other channels and just make audiovisual shitposts full time. He also got a warehouse and turned it into a combination filming studio/drum museum/streaming area/maintenance garage.

SpartanIvy posted:The most frustrating thing about Linus house is that he bought a perfectly good and nice normal house and then proceeded to Groverfy it into the abomination that it is. That's just what you do when you're a multimillionaire in Vancouver who can't afford one of the actual fancy rich people houses. You ruin a house or entire neighbourhood in Langley. Some rich folks moved into my dad's neighbourhood (all houses built in the late 70s/early 80s) a few years ago, tore down the 45-year-old totally serviceable two storey 4b/2.5ba house with a nice backyard, and put up an absolute monstrosity of a 6b/6ba that's so badly designed they had to dramatically alter the topmost roof pitch halfway through construction to stay within zoning bylaws. It's ugly as gently caress and sticks out like a sore thumb.

priznat posted:Gross. I'm in Coquitlam where the city is trying to increase the tree canopy (giving out free trees to plant etc) but at the same time just let anyone redeveloping a property to raze the entire thing down to the bare earth. It's super dumb. Thankfully the township has decreed that all developments that aren't "individual buys property, individual builds new house" have to commit to some percentage of green space. When one developer got the OK to build a pair of high-rises they had to commit to two public green spaces, an ecological area, and a park.
