Faiblesse Des Sens

I finished The Three Body Problem. Wow. This book is monumental. It's easy to see why it was so widely heralded. To reveal the crux of why it works so well would be to reveal the plot and spoil the fun. I will just say that there isn't a twist so much as an unraveling or reveal of what is going on and it's done in a way where the other isn't trying to convince us he's clever. The author treats you as the reader with the utmost respect for your intelligence. The book starts out heavy with science rather than fiction to build its mystery and it works very well. I do want to mention that since this is from a Chinese author the translation contains the necessary cultural clues. There's parts of this book that occur during the Chinese Cultural Revolution so in those parts in particular there's a lot of footnotes to give you the proper context. I greatly appreciated this. Highly recommended.

"Gamers" living up to the stereotype I see.

I know you've got the whole 'Forum Asshole' thing going on but really? Do you walk around with a stick up your ass all the time or is it just this persona you use on a web forum to give yourself some illusion of power? If you're looking for a reason to be offended, you won't find it in that post. I was making a point about a girl, not all girls. Pffft. Of course you're not going to see what's wrong in what you're saying because you're in the privileged position where thoughts like this don't occur to you. Your wording (granted) makes it seem like the situation is only occurring because you're playing against AI and not the "full" game. I don't see how that's not a sexist viewpoint. Plus, in your reply back you then refer to this person as a girl and then mention "girls" as a whole. You don't even see these people as women. You look down on them in both of your posts.

By "normal" do you mean desktop? Desktop HDDs are only rated to run for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. NAS HDDs are meant to be ran 24/7. Seagate desktop drives are shit. So are WD Greens (what I'm replacing) and Blues. Class is what matters and unfortunately WD has a convoluted setup where they have a bunch of different desktop drives. Brand loyalty is a joke. Hell, WD Reds aren't even 7200 RPM and actually aren't that good for multiple people using it at once. Only the Red Pros are. Reds are best suited for media. One of the reasons I'll be switching between HGST and Seagate for my NAS.

It was on sale. I use hand me down WD Green's in my NAS. It was time. This will eventually be part of at (least) a 3/4 disk array. Next one is HGST.

tl;dr working retail sucks

POTC is shit. All of them. Confirmed. Perhaps if every movie was about an hour shorter they'd be better.

Women are typically bad at games so you have to make comments about how they aren't, right? Pffft. Anyways, here's adult life for you: I took a day off so I could actually play MGS5 for a few hours. Mind you I caught up on sleep as well but that was a good 3-4 hours of that.

You don't mention location in either case. Why is that? That's a huge determination of pricing in the US. Also, age of the place.

The title is faded on windows that aren't active. Though really looking through what I have installed real fast they all handle window title bars vastly differently.

I listened to Peace Walker tapes after I started playing MGS5 (so I could get some details while at work and away from the game) and Hayter comes off as downright cheesy in comparison. I think overall Kiefer Sutherland does fit better for what I've seen of the tone of this game.

Like I scrolled that far up.

Are we just going to act like paedophilia does not exist? Would you rather have them have sex with a robot or a real child?

This is going to do as well as the Surface 1 and 2. No, I'm not missing the word "Pro" in that sentence.

Natural? Wrong series.

An AI doesn't make human decisions.

What, you seriously don't get why a computer would make that decision at the end? Please see: MGS: Peace Walker

b-b-b-but whatsapp was easy they said!

Looked into this: My local account appears below my MSFT account on my desktop lockscreen. On my tablet, which has a second MSFT account linked, never seems to give an option to sign in with it like what you're seeing. So fuck it. Google it. At least I turned on the PIN thing.

Other users should be in the bottom left corner of the login screen. As for pin... well I log in with my Microsoft account. Is this for a local account or a Microsoft account? I didn't even know a pin was an option. I'm guessing this is a device based lock compared to an account based lock? If so it's likely inconsistent because there's a setting that requires that you enter in a password after __ minutes but before that if you unlock again you don't have to.

Why not just use the iPhone app on your iPad? It might look ugly as fuck when it's stretched but it should still work. There's a setting to view both phone + tablet apps in the app store.

It's coming due to customer feedback. Makes sense.

The MyCloud is a NAS and is a completely different concept for storage. You would be able to access it from any computer in your house and beyond. That being said WD makes pretty terrible NAS boxes so good job on avoiding it.

If we haven't even figured out law enforcement and criminal justice in Seattle (where we had gay marriage and legal weed ahead of most everyone else) then the rest of the country is fucked. They'll have this all sorted in about 2075.

It's 2015. Why on earth do we still have image quality like that?
