Looking to buy a desktop. Unwilling to buy Intel given their spate of security issues that will be with them until they retire the current-gen architecture.

So, AMD? Threadripper? Paired with Radeon something or other or Nvidia? Whichever works best for freecell and snood.

No, I'm not going to build one. I value my time more.

Discuss.

I built an entire home office tower/computer once. Once.

I was about to call it quits when I plugged it in and the on switch (a toggle) didn't work. Then I noticed the power surge extension was off. Flipped it on and presto! It came to life!

After a hard drive program installment, I downloaded Radeon and had security issues with Realtek. Never again.

Here's one for you. I can't delete addresses from my company's iPhone map software.

Swipe left, hit Remove, the entry comes back. Isn't it lovely that a one-time address can't be removed?

Suggestions?

I don't know much about iPhones, but maybe it has to do with your iCloud? Maybe delete it there and see what happens when the phone?

Ha!

I bought one from Dell. AMD CPU, Radeon something or other GPU. FreeSync, T&A looks awesome on the curvy 4K screens.

Now that it's out of the box it'll gather dust.

My poor IE7 is being kicked to the curb soon. IE10 is not my friend. What are the alternatives?

I haven't looked on Etsy yet, but if they're available for sale anywhere.

IE7 or Win 7?

..
Both, but Microsoft got tired of the (remind me later) gig and installed edge in a sneaky update. -_-

 

[HarryHill]

..
Now that support for Win 7 has expired is it considered an abandoned technology?

No, it's been end-of-lifed, but the kernel lives on as part of Windows 10.

Windows 10 does fried chicken

You need to let go of Windown ME already. It's coloring your perspective.

Does it suck up RAM like chrome does?

"Chromium is a free and open-source software project from Google.The source code can be compiled into a web browser.. Google uses the code to make its Chrome browser, which has more features than Chromium. Many other browsers are also based on Chromium code, most notably Microsoft Edge and Opera"

AKA ... Spyware.

The TOR Browser with the TAILS operating system is the smartest thing to use to stay anonymous. Unfortunately google caught on to it and won't let me watch Youtube.com videos.
