- Comment on Not up to snuff on all the medical disection stuff. But can a 42 year old overweight heavy beer drinker donate his semi fatty liver? 23 hours ago:
The medical protocol varies by region. Generally speaking, it’s considered a violation of their oath to knowingly transplant diseased organs or leave a patient with a diminished capacity to thrive. (Such as donating a lobe to a family member when you’re still alive.)
In the event of an emergency donation such as brain death. Special considerations will be taken, they may deem the liver to be suitable for transplantation after a battery of tests.

There is a constructed language that I suspect is free from sarcasm. (At least if it’s used formally)

- Comment on How can I find out what graphics card upgrade is compatible with my system? 3 days ago:
The thought just hit me if you’re playing with prime-select. It may have been using your integrated graphics instead for the window manager. Glad you got it solved either way.

- Comment on Is there a decent video compressor like compressing from like 4k to 720p? Quality not an issue. I am used to watching cams when movies come out. Just size downward. 4 days ago:
I like the Internet Friendly Media Encoder. Works on most computers and it’s got lots of useful features and presets so you don’t need to think too hard.

Did any of you change your controls to use the dpad for navigation in 007 golden eye? My friends called me a psycho for it.
- Comment on Why does google decide to log people out of all their google accounts all at once with no warning? 5 days ago:
Technically, you’re not allowed to have multiple Google accounts from their perspective. So the tooling isn’t setup for it. You’re probably also looking like a bot to them.
I’d suggest using the profile feature in Firefox so you can configure different contexts based on your needs such as a personal, uni and spam profile.
They also sell a hardware authentication device that might help simplify matters. It’s called a Titan Security Key. You would need to research it to find out if it’ll support being bound to multiple accounts.

Are you using the nvidia drivers and have your monitor connected to the gpu?
The 980 should be more than capable of a fully functional desktop experience, so after cleaning the dust it may have just been a heating issue.
- Comment on How can I find out what graphics card upgrade is compatible with my system? 1 week ago:
Just a heads up. I would strongly suggest you don’t recommend an ARC GPU on a motherboard missing rebar support. It’s critical for them to run correctly.
- Comment on How can I find out what graphics card upgrade is compatible with my system? 1 week ago:
3rd gen i7 platform will be your major bottleneck.
If the prices for ram weren’t insane right now I’d suggest a whole new build depending on what games you’re hoping to play.
Don’t go with ARC as it’s not compatible with that motherboard. You need resizable bar support and ideally an x8 pcie gen4 lane or better.
Since you’re rocking Linux I would suggest sticking to AMD graphics.
What PSU are you using and games/software would you like to run better?
The 980 is pretty good for most purposes outside of modern games.
I’d suggest a new SSD and redoing the thermal paste on the cpu. Clean up the dust too.
- Comment on do most people really like the taste and smell of eggs? 1 week ago:
I like sunny side up eggs. I dip my toast in it and then pepper the crap out of the whites and eat that with toast too.

You can call your local one and ask.
