Which do you like best?

Less frame rate in favor of an higher resolution (4K at least)

 

or

 

Lower resolution in favor of an higher frame rate (60-120fps)

Also:

What's the difference between 4K (4096 × 2160) and 4K (3840 × 2160). Why are they referred to both 4K if they have different resolutions?

Also which of the two resolutions is best to display on a TV? And which is best for desktop Youtube?

Sorry if I sound like a noob...

(4096x2160) is what's used for industrial or professional level displays, I think. The other is used for consumer level stuff.

[RedDagger]

Which do you like best?

Depends on what I'd be doing really, higher framerates are preferred for a lot of video games (FPSs, racing and action/adventure notably) but I'd prefer higher resolution if I was just using media and stuff like photoshop or video editing.

4K in terms of resolution is just a general term encompassing all resolutions with around 4000 vertical pixels

As Buckminsterfullerene said, 4096 is generally for professional stuff (including films), whereas 3840 is for consumer so that'd be for TVs and Youtube.

Do shrooms make females aroused and likely to be more touchy feely?

no, makes you laugh and giggle uncontrollably though

The Clinton V Trump debate is on later, I understand that live television is on a delay so they can cut away if something unforseen happens, what I'm wondering is, if hypothetically Trump says something offensive, he uses a slur for example will the transmission be cut or will they continue showing it and just apologise ?

If it's something verbal, they'll keep it going, as it'll end up going out via Social Media anyway. If there is bad language then the broadcasters will apologise as a matter of course; but it would be on the persons who said it shoulders to either properly apologise, if they want to, or to take all the heat that'll come their way.

 

The "unforeseen circumstances" would be if someone decides pull an John Wilkes Booth or a Lee Harvey Oswald... basically anyone with a triple barrelled name.

Hi, I'm from the future. There will be no bad language.

Does Youtube as of a week or so ago take absolutely for-f*cking-ever to start any video you click on?

[Tacymist]

The site has been loading videos just fine for me.

[Crokey]

It happens randomly for me, i think it depends on what server the video is getting pulled from. Some videos will load without delay, and others will take "absolutely for-f*cking-ever" to load.

[ten-a-penny]

Is there is anything Rockstar-made that functions properly?

 

Now this issue is weird. I've been logged on Social Club (SC) in like forever. I have two SC's, one I use mainly (which is also linked to my PSN account), the second is primary just for tools like Snapmatic access, etc. Somehow I got locked out of my main and can't login no matter what. It says "account locked" or whatever. Problem is, this issue has been on for a long time. I used to be able to login using the PSN, but as of late whenever I use that option it says "you don't have access blablabla" which means I can't access my primary.

 

 

If I ever upgrade to NewGen GTAV I won't be able to transfer because of this sh*t and I'm NOT gonna restart again. Any idea on how to fix this?

[Mr. Scratch]

Try and send those useless f*cks a ticket. I did and they didn't help in the least bit.

Whats the best way to transfer large amounts of currency, from one to another.

 

Say someone had £50k and wanted to move it to another country/currency, pounds to dollars, euros, whatever. Bank to bank, probably.

What method would get the best rate?

[Mr. Scratch]

Usually bank transfers, Western Union for one has a flat fee and will charge you up the f*cking wazoo. It depends on where and how you plan on transferring said money.

SWIFT payment, all Banks and most Building Societies in the UK do them, usually come with a fee which can usually range from free - £50, depending on if you've got a premium type of account or standard current account. Usually take 3-5 days unless you're sending to India and that take up to 3 months.. yeah, 3 months.

 

As for rate, it will depend on the rate of the day, and if the amount is large, a negotiated deal can be done where a slightly better rate can be achieved. Usually as a rule of thumb the bank will use a rate that is slightly better than the "tourist" rate (the one used for Bureau de Changes), but it would not be as good as the market rate which you'll find on places like xe.com, or the business pages of news websites.

 

If you're transferring within Europe, and if your UK Bank has adopted it yet, then you can also use the SEPA CT system, which is similar to a domestic CHAPS or Faster Payment (CHAPS process, FP timescales) and can be transferred within 1 working day, and there may be a lesser charge if any applied. Bear in mind you'll still be subject to an exchange rate.

 

For small amounts and if the receiver accepts it then PayPal can also be used, but that's usually if the receiver is a business. As for Western Union, that is an absolute last resort unless you are transferring between any European country and the US/Canada, as outside of these areas the network is subject to abuse and isn't as reliable due to lack of regulation.

[Mr. Scratch]

Uh, what he said.

Just how bad is drinking coffee in the evening?

 

In the last few months I developed a small caffeine addiction, especially in the morning so I can reincarnate from the dead and function like a human being at work. In the weekends, whenever I'm at home and am not going out or in the mood for weed, I am in the mood to drink coffee or energy drinks and play games, use internet and so on until sunrise. Without it, I have trouble staying up and sadly follow my usual week day sleeping routine only to wake up early in the morning. If I smoke weed, then I'll be gone in an hour and wake up even earlier. I barely drink alcohol and if I drink, then not by myself.

 

It's almost 9pm right now and my eyes are slowly starting to get heavy and I'm tempted to make me a coffee. Is it bad for health if I do this once a week?

 

Edit: damn you human body there goes my stomach gonna take a sh*t now

I'm gonna have a late coffee too, around 10 pm to get me through a concert. I'll regret it when I get 2 hours of sleep for work tomorrow...

[chronic lumbago]

You'll probably regret spending most of your time with dirrahea on the toilet instead. Shouldn't the music keep you awake? Have fun tonight.

 

Yes, I answered my own question and yes, good thing I didn't ask facebook.

[Eram]

Any addiction is a real bitch, but hell, there're sure some "good" ones...

Is there some scientific reason that sometimes listening to your favorite music at irresponsible levels takes you on a journey through space and time?

My back yard has a rabbit infestation. It would seem that all these critters know is how to breed and how to ruin things. They dig up all my pretty plants, and they leave their droppings everywhere, it's almost as if they're proud of their excrement. There are now so many rabbit holes in my garden that I can't plant anything. They're making my back yard inhospitable to everything but themselves.

I think about how best to deal with these rabbits, maybe I could take the matter into my own hands so to speak, but knowing how fast they breed I don't think it would do much good.

Thankfully though, these rabbits have a virus (myxomatosis) which is slowly killing them off.
You can view the virus at work. After infection the rabbit becomes listless, unaware of it's surroundings, even totally blind. Then it just drops dead.

So!!

Option 1 entails violence, which I wouldn't particularly enjoy, plus it wouldn't be effective.

And option 2, allowing time to do the work for me, requires patience and plenty of tolerance which I'm in sort supply of.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do?

Should I call somebody?

Has anyone had similar problems with pests in the past?

 

[Mr. Scratch]

You should give Elmer Fudd a call.

• make a fence

• cover up any holes you see in your yard
• poison them

If possible don't try and kill them theyre too cute lol

Because music is as close to divinity as we can really ever get.

An evening sat in an upstairs window with an air rifle should be enough to solve your rabbit problems. That and a fence.
