cinci zoo sniper posted:well yeah that's a generation thing, 2080 Ti is more powerful than 1080 Ti. generation leaps on nvidia usually are 1 model relative shift, e.g. 2060 is equal to or better than 1070. still, both for nvidia and intel there seldom are reasons to buy previous generation consumer products except this is very untrue with the price leap in the latest nvidia generations, and the very minor performance gains of the latest intel generations but, w/e, most people will not be comparison-shopping specific intel cpu's to start with, i'm a huge nerd and even i don't bother keeping much track

i'm the secfuck who never got around to pick up my proper picture id for the campus, and had to argue with a very serious guy at the gates to get in when it turns out my simple rfid card needs to be reactivated (on the inside) every january 1st well, i guess the serious guy at the gate was the secuck for letting me in. he had a gun and everything, could have kept me out pretty easy

CmdrRiker posted:Github, on behalf of Microsoft, will be allowing unlimited free private repos for free accounts. I don't know if this is ol' drown out competition with free services thing or just let's try to accumulate all the data thing. free private repos can only have three collaborators, so it is pretty drat limited anyway besides there is a bunch of enterprise features they still charge for, just microsofts modern realization that you want to rope in hobbyists with free tools to the extent possible, the real money is with cost-insensitive companies

Max Facetime posted:right, from Europe, Asia and Africa; people do know of the importance of inclusiveness, or this wouldn’t be such a big point i am not sure where this was (i.e. distance from the us), but blackface is one of those which does still need to be explained to some people, as the connotation (quite specifically originating with white people engaged in the slave economy of the southern states appropriating and spreading the culture, i.e. music, of the enslaved people, while donning a mocking imitation look of them) is not that well taught in a lot of the world not that ignorance is a defense or the use of blackface is made any less problematic by historical details, but i do think there is a lot of rampant, but at least sometimes, innocent ignorance at play there

haveblue posted:the terms of the generic enterprise cert program agreement are public and were cited as the reason for the revocation, I don't think they had a special private contract since apple removed ios's built-in facebook integration yeah, this turns out to have been the right take all along, but i at least suspect that people who had seen wonky google apps on their enterprise cert up to that point had gone "huh" and assumed that they had some deal cut with apple (and thus didn't bother to report it to the right people at apple) at least i find that to be more likely than there being anything particularly conspiratorial about google getting called out the day after facebook

My Linux Rig posted:funny story about my cs classes: i used to have a professor who insisted that students print out their code and turn it in instead of using the school's tool for digitally turning in stuff. my final project ended up being 20+ pages printed back and front yeah, i still require printouts for the usual small scale assignments (where it'll be a few pages with suitable a2ps settings), not for projects where it gets lengthy though it is just easy both to annotate a bit on, and with rather little practice you get good at visually spotting both bugs and e.g. plagiarism in that form

Client applications should use the Print Document Package API instead. xps did its job, microsoft had pdf printing and viewing support ready to ship for over a decade but adobe kept throwing (antitrust) fits, so microsoft started pushing a new document format until adobe gave in and now windows 10 does both viewing and printing to pdf

Soricidus posted:if you want to do something complicated then you should be doing it in the real programming language you’re clearly already using. either way *outputting* working xslx for your exact purposes is not very difficult (in fact just putting the skeleton of the thing together in excel, saving, and then generalizing from that is straightforward enough), the issue with the format being complicated only really shows up if you want to interpret arbitrary files, but there's really only like two projects that need to do this (openoffice and office itself)
