What is something a SO said that you never wanted to hear? [NSFW] by badcommentsin AskReddit

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point ago

"I don't think we should spend $30,000 to try again."

Dieselboy - The 6ixth Session (Whole Album) - One of the mixes that really defined DnB by leave_it_to_beavisin DnB

[–]sirrogue2 1 point2 points ago

I first heard of Dieselboy about 12 years ago while Napster was still the best place to get music (before they went legit.) His track "Invid" was one of the featured downloads. I got my hands on it and instantly loved it. I picked up the 2 CD album a few months later.

I can honestly say this is the album that got me into drum-and-bass.

Best part is, he's coming to town tomorrow for a concert. Looking forward to it.

If I recall correctly, the answer is yes.

I need help, reddit. Should I quit my job where I'm verbally abused by the manager and abused by a coworker? by RazNiagiin AskReddit

[–]sirrogue2 2 points3 points ago

Ask your store manager for the phone number for the equal employment opportunity officer. Call them, lay everything out for them. Start writing everything down. Note time, date, and actions/words.

And if they fire you, sue the motherfucking pants right off of the franchising company.

No need to be rude.

What certifications would be helpful to have when pursuing a computer repair job? by sorrowbornin techsupport

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point ago

A+ is a very basic certification. When I was getting started in IT, the A+ cert was looked on as "nice-to-have" but not 100% necessary... even by major IT companies. I would still recommend it because it will give you a good foundation to start from.

If you're planning on working with Microsoft software, start with the Windows 7 certification.

Trying to replace the keyboard on my netbook. Can't get it open, help! by HeadOnAPikein techsupport

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point ago

Did a little search-fu on Gateway's website, but they don't seem to have technical manuals available for switching out components.

Try this: Use a thin flat-head screwdriver and pry the cover up slightly around the edges of the keyboard. There may be a simple plastic latch holding the cover in place.

Also, double- and triple-check you removed all of the screws for the cover. If in doubt, pull the screw out. Just remember to sort out which screw goes where. I like to use styrofoam coffee cups to sort out screws when I take apart laptops. Just label each cup with the screws' purpose: Cover, CD Drive, HDD, screen, etc.

Laptop Dying - How can I pull stuff from its harddrive? by happy2pesterin techsupport

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point ago

USB external HDD mount. You can find them most computer stores or online. Look for one that will support 2.5" HDD's and works with both IDE and SATA interfaces - this will ensure you can use it with any laptop hard drive.

The most horrifying thing happened. It just stopped. All of it just stopped. by lifeisbeauin techsupport

[–]sirrogue2 1 point2 points ago*

Open your case, turn the computer on, and watch the CPU fan. If it doesn't move, it could either be a bad fan or a failing power supply. Watch the other fans in your case, too... see if they are spinning slowly or not at all.

I say it may be a failing power supply because I ran across the same issue once myself. I also had a CPU temperature reading program on my computer at the time, and it was easy to tell that my processor was overheating after I logged in. Restarting the computer seemed to alleviate the issue, but it always came back. I noted that the fan would work about 50% of the time when the computer started up. I had to replace the power supply anyway for a GPU upgrade, and that fixed the issue.

Hoping that merged servers or transfers will come soon. by alexf0rcein swtor

If you were playing in the US, I would tell you to come to the Jung Ma server. We have cake... and a lot of Imperials to kill.

DAE think "x people on the fleet" isn't a good metric for population? by preludeoflightin swtor

[–]sirrogue2 -6 points-5 points ago*

Unless you can stay online for 24 hours at a time, logging how many people are in which zone during said time frame, you cannot honestly give a correct viewpoint on how "dead" or "packed" the servers are.

To answer the original question: Yes.

EDIT: Seriously? I tell the fucking truth, and this is the thanks I get?

My mum thinks I've been watching Porn/Gay porn???? WTF? and tells me she's getting someone to look through my PC by Imumthinksimgayin techsupport

Backup everything you want to keep to a portable hard drive and put it somewhere safe that isn't in your house. Bring that drive back after your mother calms down.

Feeling like I'm being robbed of my youth. by VentingSteamin offmychest

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point ago

I'm going to tell you a secret. Your grades in high school don't mean shit. That's right. In the real world, no one gives a fuck if you were valedictorian in high school. They only care about what you are right this very second.

You are correct on that. Thanks for pointing that omission out.

The Mittani got elected to the newest CSM. One of the things he decided to do if he got elected was have Goonswarm zerg Jita and shoot down freighters that left their docks.

Of course, that was before Mittens had a severe case of drunken diarrhea mouth and got booted off the CSM and banned for a month. He apologized for his drunken blathering, but he still decided to carry on with his "Jita Must Burn" campaign.

And... here we are.

[Build Help] Triple monitor by Sneakyhiderin buildapc

[–]sirrogue2 0 points1 point ago

Will it work? Yes. I use a pair of Crossfired HD5850's in my PC, and they work rather nicely. Unfortunately, you probably won't be able to push 60 FPS at high settings of ANY modern game with all three monitors in use. I can't even do that with my two cards.

TL;DR: If you want bad-ass graphics, buy better video cards too.
