yeah i did. since /g told me to get anything with gamer in the name i ordered pic related.
>X99 ULLTTRRAA GAMMMIINNGGG
in all seriousness i ordered it because it has the least amount of complaints.
stupid level of complaints of asus x99 boards committing banzai after a month or two. just out of no where. no overclocks.
msi new series looks nice. little complaints. but really don't like the dragon shit and unsure of their vrm quality on their lower tier boards. oh and they only have one set of pwm fan headers. the rest of the 4 pin headers are actually standard three pins with the forth pin being a dummy. i have eight pwm fans so i would like to use their fancy pwm feature.
asrock seems like eh. some nice boards but a lot of them use thin pcb's.
asus is currently the only one shipping with all their fan headers being pwm but the gigabyte has the next largest amount. the few remaining i can easily hook up to a simple two way pwm fan splitter. the ULLTRAAA GAMMIINNGGG also uses International Rectifier 3556 vrm's which appear to be currently the best and it appears to be what asus is using and asrock on their higher tier boards.
so even though it screams GAYMER it appears to actually be a pretty solid board. well at least to the reviews i read and user reviews.

oh yeah and to comment more about asus i also went through two z170 gene's. first board had two sata ports commit banzai after TWO WEEKS and the replacement board i received from amazon, which was BRAND SPANKING NEW, had a giant piece of a layer of the pcb missing on the top of the board. as if someone dinged it with one of those voltage controllers when checking the board after production during QC.
replaced it with a gigabyte z170 GAMMIINNGGGG 777777 and only complaint was the bios resetting after every 20th reboot due to it not liking my ram (gskill ddr 3000mhz cas 14). which i can't hold against gigabyte since virtually every z170 board has complaints of users bitching about ram support.
this time around i ordered pic related for my 6800k. stock 2400mhz quad channel ddr4 that my cpu natively supports instead of fancy 3000+ stuff. anyways quad channel 2400 should destroy dual channel 3000+.

They should pay for the certificate after you're hired. Otherwise, that's bull if you've already proven you can work on their shit

Which certificate?

Download a brain dump. I'm not even kidding. The only people who care about certifications are HR drones. So long as you don't do the unethical thing and get certified as a god damned MCSE just because you can, you'll be fine.
And Microsoft pulls dickshit questions like sales. "You have a client who wants x and y, what Office 365 Enterprise license level do you recommend?" They can eat a cock.

We need to spread awareness to normies as fast and as powerfully as possible.
Candid is a service that presents itself as an anonymous free speech platform.
In reality, Candid is a project started by two Google AI engineers who are attempting to create a machine learning platform that can identify "undesirable" forms for speech and automatically censor them. The founders have already publicly expressed their intention to silence opinions they disagree with (see below).
Also, the service is not actually anonymous, you have to register with Candid using either your Facebook account (where they ask for all your personal data e.g. education and employment history) or your phone number, so Candid always knows exactly who is posting each comment.
This service is an attempt to limit free speech disguised as a way to enhance free speech, and Maddox is now one of their paid shills. Maddox will never entertain the idea of discussion on this topic, not even on his """Advertisement-free""" website that totally isn't affected by his sponsorships on other platforms you guys.
A YouTuber named "Harmless Opinions" has several interesting (albeit dry) videos that expand on this:

>Part 2:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TIjmYAUzIg
>More videos on the subject:
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=candid%20harmful%20opinions
(From above): One of the founders originally posted a comment on
>this page on Product Hunt...
https://www.producthunt.com/tech/candid
http://archive.is/z19cB
>...revealing these sentiments. It has since been edited to this.

Is this trying to be a new app? Can't you just not use the app?
What I'm getting at is, if people are wrongly censored for no apparent reason, they'll get tired with it quickly and stop using it. I don't see anything like this surviving longer than 5 minutes.
>>
POTENIAL SHILL: >>57331856 Don't worry about Candid. There's nothing to worry about.
Perhaps not, but if my concern bothers you, then make a filter blocking all my annoying Candid posts from showing up on your screen, because YOUR CONCERN OVER MY CONCERN is suspicious, and with topic filters, you don't get the excuse that my posts are annoying you. Filter me and my threads and go away. Even if you're not a shill.

Why do they make stuff harder instead of easier as they further develop it? I'm just trying to update my Firefox ESR on Debian; it took 30 seconds to do it on Windows because it auto updates, and when I looked up how to so it on Linux the only relevant result is an outdated guide that shows how an auto update feature used to exist years ago. However, if I want to do it in the current year I have to download some tar and do god knows what with it because it doesn't even include a readme file. How come you're always talking about "the Linux desktop year" when something as simple as updating my browser isn't automatized? And don't get me started on the Flash plugin.

I need a GPU now, I currently have an EVGA 1080 which Im going to be sending back for a refund tomorrow, after returning it should I just wait for Black Friday and Cyber Monday to get something new?
I will be computer-less for a while if I do wait. I got the 1080 because my 780 bricked on me(it was a Zotac stock cooler version)
