Heartbleed wouldn't have happened if everyone used Assembly like a real man.
But are there any real men in programming?

I may be wrong but doesn't mineral oil have a shitty thermal conductivity?
Reading up on it, it seems like water would actually move the heat away faster than oil.
I haven't done the maths, but gut feeling tells me that oil would work out better, simply because of how much of it there is. With water cooling, you can usually only have a small amount of water flowing through heatsinks around critical components. With mineral oil, you just turn your computer into an aquarium. The heat can spread in all directions, and the area of the heat dissipating region is huge.
You can use water in your PC.  Just gotta be distilled.

That would work only if your case is vacuum sealed and completely free of any foreign particles.

It also guarantees eventual part failure due to heat. Maybe this is on purpose? They can't be accidentally this stupid, can they?

Razer doesn't turn a profit, so maybe they are.

We should just make anything that is potentially harmful illegal.

The only thing pathetic here is A&E labeling themselves as "champions of the LGBT community" when it is purely for profit. Meanwhile, a man who is expressing what seem to be his honest opinions, gets shafted. This is why Liberals are complete idiots.

This post makes absolutely no sense. A&E will do what is best to protect their business and retain viewers. Because they are a business. They will portray themselves in what they believe will be the most positive light to their viewers. Therefor liberals are idiots? What?

Liberals are idiots because they are just the conservative counterpart. They harbor just as much hate and discrimination. The difference is that their opinions have more validation in society.

It's probably people typing "Google" into Google toolbars to send them to main page, and then searching for what they want from there.  I've seen plenty of people do that.  I guess they just prefer to search from the main page than from the toolbar.

Yes.

Lithium batteries should be charging while they're undergoing high energy draw, and not charging when there is low draw.

Incorrect. Why should I download something that I can not use?

So you can have it ready to go when you can use it.

I have a discount code for Dell, so I think I'm going to go with ...

XPS 15

A few months ago it was £1200. I'm gonna be able to pick it up for about £500.

I've had terrible experiences with Dell.
I saved £700 today. That's a pretty good experience so far.

But you wouldn't have bought it without the coupon, so you actually lost £500.

I'd say of all the newest generation consoles, the Xbone is the best. The operating system is fluid, and intuitive, and it seems to be pretty powerful. The demo at work runs Battlefield 4 at what looks like a constant 60 FPS.

It's pretty good, but the placement of it on the banner seems a little off. It needs to be about 20% smaller and "The Flat Earth Society" text needs to be moved to the right by about .25 centimeters.
