    Android Studio Mobile Coding ERROR

    You can only make changes to the UI in the main thread. Your async task is in its own thread. The onPostExecute is where you need to put the UI changes since that will run on the main thread after the async task is complete. I believe you can use [ code ] [ /code] tags to keep some of the...

    How have people still not figured out how to give out phone numbers?

    Love google voices auto voice-to-text service. Get an email with message and a link to file of the message itself. Really can't go wrong. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    Florida man commits flamingocide

    He didn't even kill it quickly. He slammed it on the ground and broke his back. The zoo had to euthanize the poor thing. Just imagine how much it suffered. I can't even fathom what was in this guy's head. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    Florida man commits flamingocide

    I can't believe someone would be so cruel to an animal. I really hope he gets the maximum punishment especially considering his past record. Always sad to see the crazy stories coming out of Florida. We're all not that crazy I swear!

    Why can't computer manufacturers agree on a standard on what key to press for setup?

    You can press the Pause/Break key during initial boot up to give it time to see what the bios is doing. Then just press enter to continue.

    So...was there an upgrade to Steam's servers or something?

    Steam has been able to max my connection for a while, so I presume it's been your isp as a bottleneck in the past. I've upgraded a few times over the years and it always max out. Recently I had issues on a standard HDD slowing the download due to disk. Switched to SSD and now regularly hit...

    A 8320e Build in 2016 or X5xxx Dual Xeon?

    Just for reference. Here's a 9590 @ 4.7ghz with a cinebench around ~750 points. A stock dual 2670 system will score around ~2000 points. If rendering time is critical you can probably cut it in half with a dual 2670 system. I'm using probably the best case for AMD and the base case for the...

    Recommend me a data-crunching computer build?

    It would be ideal to check with the family member familiar to give you an idea on some of the usages while he runs it. Dual E5-2670 or 2680 offer a lot of computational power if the software can utilize 16+ cores. It would be good to find out how much peak memory it may use so you can build for...
