Tell me of your work woes, fellow drones
Sounds rough.
I'm a student so I've been home playing vidya all week.
>i forget how, but it becomes known i'm good at image editing (have used gimp/photoshop more than the average person, but that should tell you everything)
>boss wants me to edit some timestamps on some footage captures (probably not something legal, but that's not my problem)
>liked my work, so they had the bright idea to do all their safety/warning signs printed in-house
>they buy a $20,000 54" vinyl printer and laminator
>came complete with a small on-site training course from Roland, pretty fancy
>they have me operate it, had never even worked with vector imagery before
>they even have me draw the signs given only a book of examples, with tiny thumbnails in it
>before i know it, instead of doing IT, i'm now scanning, tracing, printing, laminating, and sometimes applying vinyl safety/warning signs
at least the pay was good
OP calls this 'work'
lol
this is why indians are taking your job, lazy fuck
Okay can someone really explain why this used to happen? I know the iexplorer in the background crashed, the window in the foreground has been dragged all over the screen and caused that. But why? I'm genuinely curious. Why would parts of that window stay there like that?
Mabye too much CPU usage to redraw the screen yet enough to operate the mouse.
The application hanged, therefore it was not drawing itself on the screen anymore. The picture it takes up was not re-drawn in the framebuffer (since it is hanged and not sending any picture to be drawn on the screen).
The picture in front however still sends a picture to be drawn into the framebuffer.
So you have a situation where you have a piece of empty space, which is ONLY drawn into when something appears in front of it. the space is not updated (ie. deleted) at each frame, so the old image stays in place, and the window in front will get drawn into it a second time. As you move the front image, it'll change position, and will get drawn at differnt positions.
I don't know how else to explain it in a simpler way, you have to be familiar with framebuffer rasterizers to understand it.

Since Windows Vista, Windows uses a compositing Window Manager. Before, it was a stacking one, which created your pic related effect when a program crashed.

What the fuck was I thinking this whole time? I used to be a huge applefag until I tried android. Android just feels so much more free. Why is this?
because android is free, ie gratis.
>>54652504
Because some software limitations are ridiculous.

The important thing here is that they are now locking Oculus software from the Oculus store to their hardware. Software that previously allowed Oculus software to run on other headsets like the vive (ReVive) no longer works. They previously said that they would never do this. Wonder what changed.

Hey /g/, I have a question.
Does it worth the Nspire CX CAS over the greyscale CAS?
Also is it possible to replace the keypad to the new one with the trackpad?
I have access to a used one with the fucked up classic keypad.
>>54652297
Pic related is the one I am looking at, would like to have the one with the keypad in OP.
Bump, my trusty old Ti-83 is dying and I need one for the coming exams. Phones are strictly not allowed.

Phenom II throttles on 61.5C. 65C and beyond is when the shit is about to fry.
Answering your question, you should not overclock before you research basic information on how to not fuck up your hardware.
>voltage at 1.600
For fucks sake. Are you high?

U crazy nigga

All dell motherboards of that era have problems with capacitors blowing because their cap mfg stole an in-progress (see not stable) dielectric from a competitor.
Not worth it unless you like soldering on new caps every few months
