1. One of the few videos I disliked for Tek Syndicate for being anti white
2. They are migrants. When you're fleeing country ravaged by war, you're a refugee. When you're illegally traveling across 11 safe countries to get to Germany and UK which has rich welfare benefits, you're illegal migrant and that's what they are. They are not fleeing any war from Hungary are they?
3. The clock boy story isn't quite right. The kid didn't actually build a clock, he just dismantled a clock and arranged the parts to look like a bomb in a briefcase. This was quite intentional. When he showed his teacher, she said that it was great but he should put it in his locker in case someone got the wrong idea about it. He then proceeded to set the alarm on it and hid it in the corner of his classroom. His school has a zero-tolerance policy to this sort of thing so she was forced to report it to the principle.
4. I have been replaying 1:32 - 1:55 for hours and still cant stop rofling
5. Gentoooooo!!
6. one of my fav The Tek vids
7. Your guys' humor is priceless, keep being yourself from this old geek geezer newbie!
8. Game support. That is one of the main driving forces in what happens in the PC world. I have a couple Linux laptops and also run a VM on my windows machine to do some networking related stuff. But it's not really what I use to do day to day stuff. They are job specific machines. Even have Kali on one.
9. These drunks have not even mentioned linux at 22 minutes. I am done.
10. too bad youtube takes 55% of profits.. another angle is get people to watch these videos off a blog website you dont have to profit share on adsense on a blog ( at least i didn't) with 200,000 views and USA money cow viewers you can get around 22,000$ usd in adsense and amazon alone.... also one more idea.. for mobile platforms ads have become very lucrative (ads cater to developers now) so you could build an App that just grabs RSS of these video MP4s to the Ipad/iphone directly. Just an idea and im probably wrong idk
11. watching this now its funny how racist the media made Texas out to be. then it turned out the kid and his family are a piece of ** now sueing the school for 5 mil.... opportunist not real techies
12. love you nerds
13. it's really attractiye. howgy? regret eggnog ! !!
14. "Linux community is full of a-holes...you get people who have spent 6 months trying to learn how to use something and then somebody shows up fresh and green and brand new...and they ask all the dumb questions and they are only dumb because they don't know..." Wow. The main reason why Linux is not as big (at least on the Ubuntu side) is because there are TOO MAY NUANCES! It's not because there's too many a-holes, though I'm sure Ubuntu has it's fair share.
    About a month ago I decided to build my first PC and made Ubuntu my primary OS. It was a complete and utter nightmare. Mind you, I have used Ubuntu (14.04 LTS) extensively in both dual booting and as a primary OS when Win7 would no longer work in my laptop. I thought I had a fair idea how challenging it would be, but really had no idea how bad Ubuntu would kick my butt.
    For starters Ubuntu would not install because I had a secondary storage device (/dev/sdb) connected. After installing the distro on my SSD I had to partition the HDD, by using gparted and terminal commands, which still did not work until I formated the HDD on a secondary /dev window.
    I had to track down the correct software and packages for using a Broadband PCI wireless card, which did not work and had to delete and reinstall by manually typing the command in the Terminal window. Did I mention that it took me hours to even find the driver in USC because it was not named correctly under '/bcm43'.
    Adobe flash would not work because various other drivers could not be installed, specifically a previous language update package, again I had to type the correct driver using the Terminal command in order to use adobe flash!
    Oh, and steam does not work in 64 bit Ubuntu, so I had to-- you guessed it--- type the 32bit lib version (lib32zl) in the Terminal window.
     I read countless forums on askubuntu and to my surprise, the responses from the community were all sincere, nice, and caring. No a-holes were to be found. They were the light at he end of my dark tunnel. Even though some of their answers did not work, and I had to find the answers and solutions on my own, I would have not made it if it wasn't for the support of the linux community.
    This whole process has been a self discovery, I learned so much about ubuntu, but really don't want people to go through the same pains I went through. Linux takes too much time and effort, and it seriously need to be more mainstreamed. But is it worth it? Yes and no. Ubuntu is great, and there's so much great content to be had; but it is SO frustrating.
15. Candy Crush is important in Space... #DeepSpaceProblems
16. the architect has intellectual property of his design even when the project is turned over to the client..intellectual property and copyright is somewhat the same..that is why when the client wants to duplicate the same plans, he has to pay a certain percentage to the architect..actually even all engineering consultants will be paid certain percentage too, it works as a warranty of service anyway
17. LMAO! It's hilarious watching people defend clock boy now that his dad finally sued. Yeah, this wasn't his plan from the start. So many dumbass idiots fell for it, hook, line, and sinker!
18. Why Paul wouldn't just say anything ?
19. I love these long teks... I just listen while I work. .. keeps me focused
