RE: What's on your mind? - DerVVulfman - 01-07-2020
Now for my case of bad news good news... Ready?
Just after New Years, I received a letter from the IRS regarding a filing I need to make for my father's estate. It didn't appear in my mailbox. It came from a neighbor who was away for the past couple of months for the holiday. And it said I needed to fill out a form by January 15th.
TWO WEEKS? That was my thought! I mean when you see 01/15/2021, you really look at it and go into a panic attack, especially when you have someone else do your taxes for you. I tried contacting my Tax Preparer, but had no luck for a while. I was going nuts.
Okay, giuys... look at the date I typed above. Read it. It says 01/15/2021. YEAH, I HAVE A FREAKIN YEAR, NOT TWO WEEKS!
Gaahhh... what a freakin relief!
RE: What's on your mind? - kyonides - 01-07-2020
But why would they grant you a whole year to submit those papers!?
I hope it isn't a typo.Guys, can any of you confirm if this is a recently taken video? Or is it a hoax? Could it be filmed a couple of years ago?

RE: What's on your mind? - KDC - 01-07-2020
So... A few days ago, I asked my dad to look at the RAM of my old laptop to figure out what type of RAM I need to expand it. When he put the RAM, that was already in the Laptop, back in, the laptop seems to be faster, as if he had some kind of magic hands or something. Before I asked him to take a look at the RAM, it was running on 1.45GB RAM (The RAM is a 2GB). Now it's running the full 2GB RAM. Huh. I'm gonna need more RAM if I'm going to install a 64-Bit version of Windows 10 on the laptop though. The Processor is x64-based, as stated by the System Properties on the laptop.
RE: What's on your mind? - kyonides - 01-07-2020
Don't take me too seriously, but I think you'd need 4 GB of RAM at least if you plan to run Windows 10 smoothly and even more if you wanna run heavy burden kind of apps.

That's the value I found in Ruby header files set as an Array's maximum size!
That's huge isn't it? But I wonder if that's only the maximum data size or it's the actual Array's length...Would an editor even get close to a tenth of such a maximum storage capacity?
RE: What's on your mind? - MetalRenard - 01-07-2020
As Kyonides said, 4 is an absolute minimum these days, Windows, especially 64bit, uses between 2 and 3 of those. Honestly I wouldn't settle for less than 6 but most people would push that to 8. Personally I use minimum 16 as I make music which is very RAM heavy (my most recent project maxed that out, had to split it into 2 parts, so yes, I do use all of my RAM).
Ideally, I would have 32 or 64 for my setup.

Pawn Stores usually wouldn't touch a laptop unless it had at least 8GB Ram nowadays. 4GB was a standard for lappies two to three years ago. But from late 2018 through 2019, no one would touch them when they wanted to buy a used lappy from a pawn store.

Really? Well darn.
RE: What's on your mind? - Kain Nobel - 01-08-2020
I got a new dog back in October, she is now 8 months old. She is a black lab pit mix I call DD and she is already fairly well trained but still has some progress to make. She is stupendously easy to teach and is fairly responsive to whatever cues I give but she used to be a major ball hog while we were playing fetch.
The other day, her fuzzy tennis ball was swapped for a smaller bouncy rubber ball and she spontaneously and unexpectedly flipped the game on me. She threw the ball herself and gave one small yippity bark as a cue for me to go get it. When I retrieved the ball I returned it back to her immediately and she threw it once again. She never ran for the ball in this "game mode" and she would whine at me if I didn't go off to find it right away. I tried to fake run to see if she would pursue but she just gave that same small "yip" as her way of saying "You go fetch it, not me."
Since then, she has been less of a ball hog. I think, with the improvised role reversal she initialized herself, she came to the realization it was a game and the ball is to be shared, not horded or fought over as I would give it back immediately. Sure, she would drop the ball back when I was still using treats, but I've been trying to phase treats out because sometimes I just need a way to burn off some of her energy and I don't always have snacks for her. Now she actually approaches and challenges me to take the ball from her and its more fun this way, and she finally (sometimes) responds to "drop it" without a treat! I don't usually tell her "drop it" as I think we both have more fun from me trying to get it from her jaws, but she usually will on command now.
I even had a sit down 1 on 1 with the dog and taught her the difference between a "ball" and a "chew toy" and she no longer chews on either the tennis ball, the rubber ball nor the new "blinking eyeball" ball I gave her. It was interesting seeing her actively listening and internalizing what I was trying to teach, now the behavior is proofed and I don't have to keep reminding her over and over. The body language of a dog sitting down calmly and learning something brand new is a sight to see, it's almost childlike in a sense.
Such a fascinating mix breed, I never expected to have such a cool pet. Sure, she looked super cool, a shiny jet black coat with a white belly and white "long sox" legs with a mix of both black and white nails. However, I was worried she'd be a barky and destructive little brat, but she's the best behaved dog I've ever had. I'm just a rookie, never claimed to be an expert dog trainer, but I'm under the impression this pup probably came from a long line of professional service dogs.

Welp, Windows 7 is now unsupported by Microsoft. Doesn't mean I can't dual boot it one day. Huh.... I might actually do that one day, if I get a 2TB Hard Drive or something.
