  Drupal 8 - too resource intensive?
Posted by: Darth-Apple - July 23rd, 2013 at 6:53 PM - Forum: Web Design & Internet - No Replies

Drupal is a very popular and extremely powerful CMS framework that can be used to build just about anything. In fact, makestation could easily be powered by it. Unfortunately, it's neither beginner-friendly nor is it light on resource usage. Drupal 7 was quite resource intensive, and Drupal 8 won't even run on this server! Just to give you an idea, go to http://hardwiredgoogle.com to see how slowly a drupal 7 website loads. Tongue

Personally, I didn't really mind how resource intensive Drupal 7 was because it was powerful enough to make up for it, but Drupal 8 having such a strict list of server requirements makes me a bit uncomfortable. What's your opinion? Should they be willing to make it more resource intensive to make it more powerful, or is it powerful enough as it is?

  Cable companies
Posted by: That Punk Guy - July 23rd, 2013 at 5:16 PM - Forum: Technology & Hardware - Replies (7)

Who is your cable company?

Carmel has Bright House Networks, a spinoff of Time Warner Cable, created in 2003.

Most of the Indy suburbs, such as Noblesville and Fishers, have Comcast however (because they used to be served by Insight Cable until they sold their Indiana operations to Comcast).

  USB Devices
Posted by: That Punk Guy - July 23rd, 2013 at 3:00 PM - Forum: Technology & Hardware - Replies (19)

Seems like nowadays, you can hook up anything to a USB port. What USB devices do you have?

I have an ADATA S102 16GB USB 3.0 thumb drive, which works wonderfully!

I also have a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q, an HD TV tuner that allows me to pickup broadcast TV stations on my laptop. It's quite expensive though ($74.99 at Fry's).

  Chicken vs beef

Which one do you prefer?

I believe chicken is healthier, but beef actually tastes better to me.

What about you?

  Bootstrap and Foundation
Posted by: Darth-Apple - July 23rd, 2013 at 4:32 AM - Forum: Web Design & Internet - Replies (2)

Both bootstrap and foundation are powerful frontend frameworks that can save quite a bit of time when developing web design projects. While I try not to rely on them, I do admit to using bootstrap on my file exchange software, and it has saved me a lot of time.

Anyone else have any experiences with bootstrap or foundation? Also, for those who have used both, which do you prefer? I personally prefer bootstrap, but foundation is very nice as well..

  Communism vs capitalism
Posted by: wasi90lk - July 22nd, 2013 at 6:39 PM - Forum: Poll Booth - Replies (4)

Which one do you prefer?

Both have pros and cons.

In communism, lazy people will get benefits.

In capitalism, poor will remain poor and rich will remain rich.

  Password manager
Posted by: Acko - July 22nd, 2013 at 6:03 PM - Forum: Technology & Hardware - Replies (3)

Since the UbuntuForums got hacked, I have since changed ALL of my passwords to something less guessable. Even though the passwords are indeed encrypted, if you include common words in a password, they are vulnerable to easy guessing. On top of that, instead of storing my passwords in the browser, I am now using a password manager called KeePass which stores your passwords in an encrypted database. You need to know the master password to get in there. Although this isn't that intuitive, I'd just like to point out that I do recommend using password managers instead of your browsers to store passwords. (Especially for banking, etc.). And that your passwords should be NEVER too guessable. (I have gone to the point where I even include cyrillic characters in my passwords Tongue)

  Chrome changes from WebKit to Blink
Posted by: That Punk Guy - July 22nd, 2013 at 4:54 PM - Forum: Technology & Hardware - Replies (6)

Blink is the new rendering engine for Chrome, created by Google and Opera Software. Do you think Chrome will change drastically with this new engine?

I read somewhere Google removed almost 9 million lines of code from WebKit when developing Blink, so I think it may.
