Short Questions that don't deserve their own thread [2015+]

Also, just another technical question, bypassing bans (even IP bans) is ridiculously easy. How do you deal with those who continue to evade banning? I get the "keep banning" as it takes barely any time at all, but doesn't it still get obnoxious?
We had some of the large waterbug-type coming up through the drains over the summer. Pouring bleach down the drain helps, but if you want to be more environmentally friendly while also avoiding lung-burning bleach fumes, vinegar also works well. I also cover/stop drains when not in use, and I haven't seen one in months.
Is placement of Braille signs set in a standard/required location? Like how do blind people know where to feel for the signs? It can't be like, I'm just going to touch everything until I find something to read if there even is anything to read.
Agreed. But blind people do not sit in the drivers seat, do they? And if you walk up to a drive up ATM it kind of defeats the purpose.
- Who the hell wrote this pile of crap? It's total bullshit!

I just always figured that the same ATM's are used in both walk-up and drive-in configurations, so why make two keyboards.
To my computer folk, especially @BRiT and @Jung:
I have my own thoughts on what I think of this and I've heard others...but I'm curious from you two and anyone else who wants to chime in. I'm building my laptop at Xoticpc right now. I like getting separate hard drives to maintain files away from the OS hard drive. I also feel that keeping mostly just the OS and only the OS on its own hard drive maintains performance. I was going to do the build with a 250gb m.2 where the OS lives and an additional regular 500gb regular SSD where all my files and activity will happen. In our opinion, Is it this pointless ? Is there any performance gain? Or is it all just mental and cleanliness in my head that I'm seeing?
Notable specs on the rig for shits: i7 6820HK / GTX 970m 3gb (put the money elsewhere lol. 3 will do) / 24gb ram (for my music and design software)

That's one hell of a gaming rig you are building there.
With SSD's I haven't noticed any difference in performance by installing the OS in a separate drive. SSD's just work fast with that setup or any other you want.
With HDD's though, installing the OS in a separate drive can be beneficial, but mostly for boot/shut down times, not that much for the rest.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
I had the same problem for a couple years. I could not even view the random GIF thread. I was running a PC with a Celeron processor, Ubuntu, and FireFox. I finally broke down and bought a new machine and I do not use any of that crap anymore.
Yes but I still can't view those threads
I think, yes it's my machine.
