IIRC you don't have to use the first pair of ram slots. You can put your ram in the other slots, unless of course you are using four sticks.

Yes mate got 4 sticks so really annoying TBH and if memory serves you have to populate from the slot closest to the cpu socket which screws me anyway

Ah OK. Kinda sucks, but personally I would much rather have an Asus than an MSI any way.

I knew Facebook was starting to become diseased but holy hell it really is attracting all the lunatics and psychopaths lately.
Just witnessed someone trying to make a case for rapists, Not surprisingly he was extremely ultra left wing, My jaw actually dropped with sheer disbelief when I read his post, How do people become so mentally disturbed that they want to make excuses for people who do the most evil, Disgusting and vile thing 1 human can do to another ?
Utterly boggles the mind.

Trolling Dicey we are not allowed to slap them and tell them it's wrong these days
Sadly these people were not trolling, I checked their pages and it was ultra ultra extreme left, Some REALLY creepy stuff like wanting legalise paedophilia, Saying it's just a sexual preference, Calling rape a "sexual emergency" that should be respected, These people, Putting it bluntly, Are sick.
In the days gone by these people would be hit over the head, Wrapped up in a straight jacket and thrown into a padded cell, Now they have access to the internet and some are even in politics, The 21st century is frightening and this "tolerance" has gone way too far.

Length of rope would be better, it's reusable.
don't get me started with politics and stuff like it, I can argue until the rapture about it so I do my best to avoid discussing it

Sometimes I REALLY hate social media, It gives a voice to the truly uneducated.
A comment I noticed on an Irish page I'm subbed to and some eastern european woman is going around saying that the irish used to invade countries and destroy the world to spread their whiteness, Any educated person knows this is BS but the amount of people that agree with her is truly frightening.
The only thing the Irish have ever invaded is a pack of crisps after a pint of beer.

Ironically what the extremists SJW's forget is many Irish folk came to the US during the period before and during the US Civil War and there were more Irish "slaves" than black slaves in the whole country. That's about as far as an invasion they ever got.

I actually traced some very distant family to monserat that were sent to the west indies by cromwell's lot to pick cotton and do other manual labor work, Free of charge of course.
They look sort of native african but with native western european features and a thick Irish accent, It's awesome ^_^
All being well I'm going to visit them next summer

She sounds delightful :lol: I should introduce her to my family and our history, we fled Scotland in the mid 1300's to serve the O'Rourke & O'Reilly's as Mercenaries (Gallowglasses).

Most minor FML ever. I was following snooker online from work, and Ronnie O' Sullivan was on the verge of getting his 900th century. He had 889 at the interval, so I was hoping to be able to get home from work in time to see #900, but I missed it.
That actually sucks. I like a bit of snooker myself (very relaxing to watch) and knowing how long that has taken etc it could be a once only kinda deal.
I used to love snooker. It's a very hard game to play, though. They make it look very easy but when you are faced with that massive table and realise how tight the pockets are etc. Yeah, tough..
So my mini moan. Cold or something again. Had only been well for just over a week. Night before last my throat was really sore. Figured it was the old coil in my Ecig but felt a bit off when I went to bed. Yesterday I spent most of sneezing etc. Went to bed at 7pm, woke at 10am freezing but sweating etc. Had a bath coughed up some green crap etc.
*sigh*. Oh well, the good part is that when I am sick I have no urge to spend any money, so it's slowly accumulating lol. Might save up for something nice.

Just got my monthly delivery of whey and useless yodel delivered, The feller rang the bell once and literally legged it, I caught up to him and his excuse was he was waiting ages, Funnily enough every house in this 6 flat block has built in CCTV door cameras for security which I have hooked up to a small 10 inch LCD next to my rig so I could see him ring and peg it.
He made an odd sound like muttley and then drove off after handing me my stuff.
Probably wanted to half inch it.

I am stupid. Very, very stupid. I figured I would share my misfortune so that you guys could laugh at me (I'm dead good like that).
So last week I stripped a bear trap cage (from a bicycle pedal) with a Dremel wire brush attachment. Well it was actually a Black And Decker, but you get the picture. Slow but steady.. It takes about an hour all told to completely get it back to raw alu.
Any way the two I had wore down and so I bought 50 of them. I've been using them a lot lately to polish things etc. Any way, these new ones were not quite up to the same standard.
Now I had eye protection goggles on which were partially steamed up and no glasses. I could feel when they were dying and I went through 6 of them all told.
What I did not realise was that they were basically flying apart into single wire strands and I was absolutely covered from head to foot. It was only because I did not move for an hour that I did not notice. Of course as soon as I moved they lodged themselves into my clothes and my skin. No jokes, I actually had one on the things that sit below your old chap.
Very painful, and even after having a bath I still plucking them out of my legs.

Doesn't mean you are stupid Alien it means they were made rubbish and the fact that you were concentrating on what you were doing, you didn't notice what was going on, don't beat yourself up over it dude and just remember it for next time

So I run a tiny tiny YouTube channel that I do little videos for, Built in game benchmarks and stand alone tech demos, Unigine without the OSD run in 1080P, 1440P and 4K, The old AvP demo run at varying resolutions, The built in benchmarks in Steep, The Division, Alien Isolation, Final Fantasy etc....It's purely for a little fun, Nothing serious.
Anyway someone decides to mouth off in the comments section, Swearing non stop, Throwing some real personal insults in badly broken English, Then he messages me with some very graphic and detailed death threats because apparently I've been "triggered" when I ask him "why are you trolling ?".
Having seen A LOT of this online with it getting worse and worse as of late and an increasing amount in the real world, Just absolute psychos, I honestly think the whole planet needs a really good shakeup.
