Buy a swatter!

Oh, so I can drop into a console and remove perks I accidentally allocated to anything related to VATS and move them to things I now see more relevant? I understand it's cheating in a sense but I don't want to start all the way over and lose my builds and other cool experiences. I don't want to...

I've made a big mistake. First time FO player here. I apparently used up my perk points on day 1 on things I totally don't need / want / use but I was too noob to understand I shouldn't try and make my character a jack of all trades. Is my only option to give up on my level 12 character and...

Go to Monoprice for reliable cheap LCD's. Cheap in reference to price, not quality.

I'm 36. Still game daily on Steam and still a huge nerd like I was when I was 24.

It's the best Aliens game I've ever played.

Doesn't it also install the game at midnight too automatically?

Never played anything from Fallout universe and really really want to give 4 a try. Looks fairly stand alone in the fact that noobs like myself can pick up the game, not know shit about 1-3 and still follow along mostly and enjoy the game. Anyone have any comments for someone who's never...

Thank you very very much!!!

I've been tasked to move two MDF files that are SECONDARY file group from my local C:\ to D:\ drive. I was also told I need to do this in a way where I declare variables so that this script CAN work on SQL Server (aka, make this move script portable). I'm new in my DBA role and learning SQL...

I have Arma3 in my Steam library. Never installed it but looks decent. What's the deal w/ Arma3? Since all mods made of this engine are complete total dog shit IMO, should I avoid installing Arma3? I've actually read decent things about Arma.

I returned the game vowed to NEVER get another early access game on Steam again. It was amazing how total shit that game was. Total total diarrhea!

I'm late to the DayZ party and finally installed / played the game yesterday for the 1st time ever despite ignoring several warnings in regards to how brutal / terrible the community of bandits are / can be. I installed the game on my PC: - AMD 8350 Black @4.0 Ghz - 32 GB of RAM -...

I need an external monitor and I'm in a pinch. I've only got access to a 32" 2014 LED LCD television. It's got HDMI ovbiously which I can run into my MBP 15" however before I do so, I recall someone telling me to not run my TV as a monitor but I assume that can be for specific gaming reasons...

I understand they're both procedural languanges. Just one is more optimized for a specific RDBMS engine like SQL Server... I think I'm doing the right thing by just focusing on: - Relational Database Theory Fundamentals - SQL Server 2012/2014 T-SQL study material - ANSI SQL

I have a nice home configuration but I hate run Plex from my other dedicated machines so I figured it deserves it's own dedicated hardware. Can you guys recommend some hardware basics for building up a box dedicated to just doing Plex streaming. One host / connection per session to Plex. I'm not...

I know the 15" MBP just got a new updated i7 processor and new force touch track pad jam. I was looking to pull the trigger on a new 15" MBP purchase in Aug / Sept but wondering based on the small / minor updates that have hit the MBP 15", should I wait a few months from Sept 15' for a major...

I've I remove my CD-ROM from my mid-2012 MBP, what is the largest capacity HDD drive OS X will recognize? Will it support a 2 TB drive? I just replaced my original drive w/ a 500 GB Samsung SSD & now want to remove my CD-ROM.

I've been using mine for a year now and can honestly say it's the best piece of technology I've ever used. I can't live w/o my MBPr and there's nothing that has come close to the joy this piece of technology has provided me.

I'm supporting both MS SQL / PostgreSQL. The certification is a main priority however sometimes it's easier to gain access to a DBMS that runs on all my systems. It's hard to always get access to a instance of MS SQL Server.

I have a broken leg so I'm really bored around the house. I decided to upgrade my Samsung 840 EVO firmware. I have a 500 GB SSD which is my 1st ever SSD purchase. I noticed while upgrading the firmware and tinkering around in the utilities, there's a section that has a total drive life...

I was looking at the same exact SSD. Not sure how good this unit is. Anyone know how reliable these SSD's are?

Being realistic. I have some large shoes to fill in the next 90 days at work. I don't think going to Amazon and buying 'Learn Python in 10 min.' is going to happen right now so thats why I asked if maybe someone is familiar with a method of gathering live data and/or something on Github I can...

Hello all, I think I'm finally going to try and become a DBA. I recently quit my Linux System Administration gig where I managed SaaS clusters in EC2 for a Jr. DBA position. I'm starting at the bottom and working my way to the top and so far love everything I learn about being a DBA and...

I'm reaching the end of the road for my old Synology DS 211+ dual bay home NAS. This thing has the performance to basically share out a folder over NFS / SMB and nothing more. It runs a flimsy single core ARM and 512 MB of RAM. I really love the small clean form factor and the polished and...

Can the Samsung EVO 500GB SSD be patched / upgraded from OS X? The drive is attached via SATA ---> USB 3.0 but I can also attach the drive as a slave where my optical drive used to be. Point is the SSD is not my boot/system drive but all I have available to me is OS X. Is there any options? All...

So I simply slam the new drive in as a slave on a spare SATA connection on any PC and before I partition the disk and add a filesystem to it, I should be able to upgrade it w/ the tool, correct? There are really no instructions nor is this well documented on the web sadly.

Yes. I realize now there's no such things as the Evo Pro and I only have the 'Pro' series. Since they're new (to me) and never been powered on from a consumer stand point, I think I will update the firmware regardless just to be safe and feel good inside. I can just attach the drive via SATA to...

I've just got some new Samsung Evo Pro 128 GB SSD's which currently have no data written to them. I'm about to start utilizing these drives very soon and I was wondering if I need to upgrade the firmware on them now considering the Evo had some read performance issues and these drives are brand...

Based on my flow chain of hardware, would it be preferred running my OpenVPN on my router or my NAS? Seems like my router would be better suited as a dedicated network device and it's also the default gateway to the LAN however clearly Asus router hardware is significantly weaker than my...

What if DD-WRT was involved? Does that change anything?

I really would like the ability to connect to my home LAN from remote locations like work, friends, or maybe select places that have Wi-Fi. Currently I have the following at my home: {INTERNET} ---> Modem ---> Asus NT-R66U ---> Synology DS211+ NAS Both my home router and Synology NAS box...

I'll also give the DD-WRT mini build another shot w/ Merlin as well. Can you tell me after I install the mini build or flash my router w/ the mini build, do the other builds I flash w/ overwrite the mini flash completely or just integrate w/ the build some how. Just trying to understand. Can I...

Can add some context as to why / what I should be aware of Q1 2015?

The site looks awful but in reading the features list, I'm impressed. Little bummed out it doesn't use it's own interface as I think the Asus linear style menu really just doesn't flow or use the max available space to make it easier on the eyes but I will 100% try it. It's not like I login to...

I've got a decent Samsung 24" LCD PC monitor. It does everything great except scale out to larger screen real-estate. I either game on my 2013 I7 gaming PC or dock my MacBook Pro to it via HDMI in both cases. I just don't know what a good 28-30" LCD is. I selected my current display based on the...

I've been running my Asus RT-N66U wireless router for 1 year now w/ little / no issues. I'd like to really get more control over my WAP / LAN. - view live client connections based on wired / wireless - mac filtering - QoS - OpenVPN support I've used DD-WRT in the past on my old WRT-54G...

I honestly know nothing about LCD quality. I buy Samsung because they look very minimal and the picture quality IMO is great. Currently using this for my desktop / gaming machine and it's decent but I want something larger. I would have no problems selling my 24" or using it as a back-up LCD...

I am installing JBoss 7 AS on this server and the installation guide calls for JDK directly. I don't know anything about Java and would like to learn JBoss to some degree. So I understand what you mean about running JDK on a production server however I don't know if JRE is sufficient to just run...

I've got my CentOS 6.5 installation up and running & I would like to deploy OpenJDK 1.7.0 or Oracle JDK to the box correctly so that Java is available to all future users I add to the box. Normally I would create my user-base and then edit their ~/.bashrc to use JAVA_HOME and point it to...
