My $.02. I bought a 120Hz monitor and was not very impressed. A little, not as much as I expected to be, but to be honest it would be nicer just to have a better resolution to see more data. Seeing the mouse pointer/text scroll, seeing text/graphics move at slightly better fluidity, just didn't wow ...
Focus on the weak aspects of encryption: Humans. Focus on how you store your keys. Who has physical access to any device you use? These are areas that will be penetrated far faster than any modern tested encryption method. It means a lot of hassle, too. Who really has full ownership 24/7 of those ke...
Long since moved to Amazon since newegg started randomly spamming my work account, which I never ordered from. Prices started creeping up well over Amazon about 2-3 years ago as far as I can tell, the shipping logic is indeed madness, and I'm tired of the "deals/rebate" hassle madness they...
When will this game be $10 and on Steam? Glad I've been ignoring it for the most part. Figure it's got a year left of paid betatesters to finish up the bug testing.
And yeah I know it'll never be on Steam unless one acquires the other.
I don't have a good idea as I've had a Trek and a backup Cannondale for so long I no longer know what is "in." However Reddit's r/whichbike is a great spot to ask.
1. Click "File" tab, and choose "Options". The "Options" window will be opened up, and click "Add-Ins" from left sidebar. 2. Select the type of add-ins you want to disable from "Manage" dropdown box at the bottom of the windows. Click "Go" ...
"Their bread and butter franchises — Office, Windows and SQL — are under assault from completely new product categories to which they have no response." Their response is to roll in the cash more and more in these divisions each year. Kinda strange article. I do think MS has concern in th...
It seems that I'm going with Intel 320/120GB as well. Backups might be an option, but if you backup every 2 hours you loose any edge SSD might have, and if you don't, 1 week of coding is actually quite a lot to loose. Backing up a SSD (or even a virus scan) has very little impact on performance for...
In my mind you can't go wrong with Intel. Not the best bang/buck. (alleviate this by looking for sales) Not the best speeds. But they've been rock solid reliable for me at home and work. That is a sticky situation. With your data you want reliability first, speed second. You really aren't going to n...
In terms of time invested probably Q3. I spent pretty much all nonworking hours in late 1999- mid 2000 playing that game. I think the only thing that stopped me was jumping on a semi-pro server and getting my ass handed to me with machine guns alone and realizing I was never going to be that good ev...
"If the user isn't seeing 'Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered' error messages then it's probably not the same thing."
Dead Island. I loved the game until I got to a point pretty far into the game, I'm pretty sure right near the end, where you have to keep some tribesman alive, and take out a butcher, a thug, and a crap ton of regular walkers. Doesn't seem so bad, right? except it auto saves right as you walk into ...
Just started playing Magicka and I don't believe any game, ever, has made me rage so much. I don't know if it's because I'm too clumsy to get off the right spells, or the game has some untested recent patches, but I'm finding most tutorials (which I almost never, ever use) online fairly worthless. M...
Interesting. We have user with Intel HD Graphics on an HP 2350P laptop that has these issues. It started with the newer FF versions, (maybe newer Flash versions related also?) I've personally had FF crash via Flash numerous times recently, usually on a particular blog I visit (embedded Youtube video...
I've always used and recommended Acronis. Work pays for the personal and professional versions. It has saved my ass numerous times. I have tested the "free" versions of various products and never came away happy compared to the flexibility and options of Acronis. The last version (2011) ha...
I've used a few third party UPS's and have been very disappointed. ESPECIALLY stay away from chinese 3rd party batteries! They can and will expand in size. The good thing about APC is their batteries lasted well beyond the rated specs in terms of length of time they provided backup power, as well as...
Do you have a site that equates the cost of these features with the extra warranty? I guess I see 5 years as "We stand behind our product." I commended Seagate when they added it (but then took it away.) I generally give old PC's to charity/schools/coworkers, that are more than happy to ta...
I've seen "enthusiast" RAID0 and RAID1 arrays fail from mere power loss. We're talking the array breaks and there's no way to get it up and running (in case of RAID0) without a rebuild. RAID is never a backup. RAID isn't real without a RAID controller that stands up to real abuse. In my mi...
