Although, let's talk about Doug Pederson's timing. He called that timeout at the last possible moment, and as a result, Philly got to see the kick happen before the "official" kick happened, which makes me wonder...did he do that do the defenders could see the kick trajectory? If so, that...

lol!

Makes me wonder what employment is going to look like for the Bear's kicker.

This NFL year has been weird. My pick from the beginning for the Superbowl was Chiefs-Saints.. but the Chiefs have been declining a bit, and it astounded me that the Cowboy's beat the Saints.

..the EdgerouterX ..is not as simple as a consumer wireless router. You trade some simplicity for general reliability and configuration options which is great if you like to tinker. But might not be if you just want to push a button and have everything work. =) It's actually pretty close to consume...

..but if I buy the Ubiquiti router and AP will it be difficult to setup? No, as long as you use one of their templates. Update the OS first, only then use the template. Both tasks are easy.

Always check to see if you can't accomplish your processing with a good GPU. -even if you can't, you might consider waiting some. :oops: The next AMD grouping seems poised to have part of its architecture on a lower "process", which could pay "dividends" in several respects (..in...

Hell, I just wish that unbuffered ECC was hitting (much) higher frequencies.

The "staying signed-in" is likely an issue with the respective website. Of course you don't want to remain signed-in after using it, so it's a "balancing" act.

Hope it delivers even more than you expect from it!

(..and that game developers get their game's DLSS "on".)

I still don't think it's a good value.. but at $700 (w/ Black Friday discount plus instant coupon) it's the least expensive 2080 I've seen:

I bought a 2560x1440 GSync Display about 18 months ago and I know I would benefit from a new card at that resolution.. -at this resolution a 2070 should be good.

ESXi madness ..not sure why you wouldn't use Qemu/KVM and a Linux distro of choice. :wink: If you want a sort of "pre-built" solution like ESXi, then UnRAID (Arch-based) is usually the go-to. If you don't mind a GUI, then pretty much any distro. with Virt-manager: https://virt-manager.org...

The models I run for distributed computing are almost always long-term climate models with ~1 week 24/7 completion times, and these almost always complete without error on my current rig. -is this available for dCUDA?

Probably look for short throw (with limited space).

Might also try Vivaldi (Chromium), and see if it has the same problems:

Girlfriend and I sat down to play some catch up on American Horror story last weekend. About 4 episodes into Cult we had to turn it off. The writing to me was just terrible. Coven was pretty good. The latest (Apocalypse) has been little more than dark & lurid..with a stamp of the proto-typical ...

I just finished with the re-boot of the Fox series: Lethal Weapon. -it's definitely better. (I watched 2 episodes of the first season and dropped it fast.) Not only is Sean Scott vastly better as a "Rig's-type" character, but the writing seems a fair bit better as well. It's still "C&...

I'm expecting the 2070 to push frame-rates about as well as (or slightly better than) the 1080, and the 1070ti is almost as good as it.. so the net (after rebate) sub $400 price of the 1070ti isn't a terrible deal except for the "extras" that are offered by the next-gen cards. I also like ...

CScottG

..the price of the video card is too much. About $50 more will net you a 1070Ti (..very similar to the 1080).

Case seems about $50 more than it should be as well. I personally like the look of the InWin 301 for $70.

This are thin wall prints. Each wall is a single layer above the first 10 or so, which are double layer.
