I wouldn't go on my balcony in underwear, but from what I've read about your neighborhood, it's probably called casual outfit in there.

You wrote that the case is sealed. A PSU completely inside will generate heat that will never go out of the enclosure and therefore, will only accumulate over time. Even if the PSU doesn't generate much heat, it will become dangerously hot in there. Thermally coupling the PSU's heatsinks to...

Thinking about it, if the environment is only dirty, but dry, IP54 should be enough.

Am I the only one to think this is an especially bad idea?

Many companies already offer IP65 and IP67 certified computers. Why do you want to risk that your DIY project fails to do the job and to be liable for it? You didn't find one powerful enough for your intended use?

The joke that the IOC is admitted Bridge as an olympic event in the past. Since then, nothing surprises me from them. Golf isn't a sport either, yet they gave a medal for it this year. A hobby in which someone with a body like John Daly and Phil Mickleson can win a major tournament is simply...

This things needs active cooling. Lots of it : . That's 60W of dissipation, just for a 3.5in drive.

Damn! You're quite a hacker. I wasn't up until one hour later, but I never noticed any downtime.

If you can live with a 24" monitor, HP has already taken care of cuting off the sides for you : Z24nq. In short : 2560x1440 IPS 8ms response time HDMI, miniDP, DP, DVI, and a USB 3.0 hub factory-calibrated RGB color 300$ at the moment.

Regarding the last point, cleaning the interior would probably help you to get a better price. Fixing the permanent check engine would have been an idea too, but it's too late for that now.

Not enough people die in wars or gang-related violence to counter-bablance the reproductive rate of scums. Not by a wide margin. The number of people dying of violence is a blimp compared to other fatalities.

You Americans have to choose to elect a sure-to-be bad president or the american version of Mouammar Kadhafi. At least with crooked Hilary, you shouldn't start a war for frivolous reasons, annihilate your diplomatic relationships with most countries and probably destroy your economy for an...

Without having any particular opinion on the author of the article and focusing solely on the topic that the level of skills/intellectuals of an individual has little effect on his chances to precreate in our modern society, I can say that I agree with that view. Just look at the number of kids...

Very interesting indeed, but the enclosure won't be available before the end of the year except to tose who financed it on kickstarter.

High performance.

I have a cheapo Lenovo server at the office that randomly falls asleep for no apparent reason. Its power management is set to "high performance" in the BIOS and hibernate is disabled in Windows Server. Yet, every few days, the machine falls to sleep. Since this is our FTP server, it is quite...

Ddrueding: "WHERE'S THE WALLET!!! HURRY!" Ddrueding's wife: "David, what's going on? Why are you shouting and so agitated?" Ddrueding: "I NEED THE CREDIT CARD, NOW! IT'S A LIFE OR DEATH MATTER." Ddureding's wife: "What happened? What's the emergency?" Ddrueding: "I MUST GET TWO NEW GRAPHIC...

I read that Zika is up to Florida, but I doubt it's already present in New York. Could be the Nile virus.

I'm glad I saved you from boredom on this Saturday afternoon. I could address every link and keep debating, but it would become (or has it already?) as fruitless as a political or religious thread. Two quick points : * The point made in the second article is irrelevant nowadays because the...

Or just wait for the card to be available again like the rest of us do.

Maybe he is the guru of a religious sect?

So...?

I haven't seen the last generation of ProBook, but if they are anything like the Probook G1, then they are what I qualify as consumer-grade product. not business-grade by a long shot. That might be ok for this customer, given the allowed budget. You just have to be clear that it is in no way...

A 3600rpm mecanical drive has no better chance to survive that than a 7200rpm one. The AFR of large 7200rpm drives is already quite low. With helium-filled drives, the noise problem mostly disappear. I don't see the point of opting for slower rotational speed at this point. I don't see why a...

Once again, you only see your little scope of use and try to apply it to an entire market. SMB-targeted NAS would be too slow with 5400rpm drives, let alone 3600rpm drives, to cope with the requests of several tens or a few hundred employees. 7200rpm drives are okfor that, when in sufficent...

I've just found out that Noctua makes industrial fans with either IP52 (dust proof) or IP67 (dust and water proof) ratings. I could see using the IP52 models inside a 4U server operating in a dusty environment, like some iron mines's less-than-ideal server rooms.

I've searched the Application Guide and there no mention of VLAN anywhere in the document. Thinking about it, it is normal since a router is a L3 device while VLAN are L2. The gateway in that LAN should be the VPN router, otherwise, another device will try to redirect the traffic going to...

Source I wasn't looking for this, but the link to the video appeared on Youtube's first page when I visited the site today. For a guy who's just a hobbyist in computer tech, he mostly made good choices. I didn't catch which graphic card he chose and the CPU is overkill for a purely gaming...

Looks like Mooner has again been kidnapped or fainted in the middle of a post.

Looks like something's missing in your routing table. The router portion of your VPN device doesn't seem to know where to send the packets from the WAN side. It seems to send the packets on another VLAN than the one you wish to use. It probbly sends the VPN connections to the default VLAN...

Of course I know that, but it means giving MS even more money per user. When you're screwed over, the answer shouldn't be to spend even more on the faulty product.

So were're supposed to push reg files thru GPO to hundred of computers in domains we manage? It might very well be what I end up doing when/if I have no other choice but to let Windows 10 in my corporate network, but somehow, I don't feel like I should play cats & mouses with a company we give...

In my own experience of trying to make a difference in the life of a woman with severe issues, he can't help her with her dependancy. Pressing her to stop will only make her leave and find another resource. That's probably how she sees Merc: a resource. Any care feigned from her part towards...

It dates a bit, but if you take a look at these graphs and those from the following page, the only game that shows a significant variance between different CPUs is GRID: Autosport with a mid-range graphic card. Even then, the trend isn't clear (i7 at top and bottom of the graph, with i5 in the...

A blue flame is hotter than a red one... AMD's GPU should have their own thread. All Polaris Pro card related messages should not have been posted and replied here.

Source I don't even think there'll be a switch to disable Cortana and I don't believe MS when they say they stop collecting data when you switch off the data collection. They've lost all their credibility.

Her brain will melt before she reach 40. Long term alcohol addiction is quite bad for the intellect.

I read that Cortana can no longer be disabled in the latest version of Windows 10. You simply can't avoid it, especially since the updates are mandatory now. Those bastards simply decided to force it down our throats. No choice, no ask, just bam! They say you can still choose what you send...

That's the kind of crap that made me quit selling computers years ago. There's no margin in that market anymore so suppliers, most often soul-less chineses and arabs around here, try to rip off resellers buying stuff from them and provide very poor RMA services. In the future, always check the...

Although it's several months old, that review and especially that page could be useful to you.

Wow, it's hotter here than at your place. I envy you.

If Linux is in the landscape, you're much better with NVidia according to what I read. AMD's Linux driver leave a lot to desire. AMD's RX 480 reference cooler seems to be lacking too. AIB heatsinks will be better, but I haven't seen one in stock yet here. If you plan to overclock, forget it...

What will happen in 40 years won't be a concern for at least half of us.

The IT director, who isn't an IT guy to begin with, thinks I should shit something that does this job for free. Like plenty of other stuff too BTW.

People here often save lots of individual e-mails (.msg files) in project folders. The files have the e-mail subject for names. Of course, several files share the same name (with a different number to differentiate them at the end), so finding the right message can sometimes be a chore. Is...

Don't try to reach the maximum overclock. Give yourself a lot of margin. No customer will be happy with a dead or unstable computer. If it means only a mild overclock, then it is. Better that than an angry customer. Plus, it might be harder to complete an RMA with a fried component caused...

I need to cover the area of a 45' shipping container, plus maybe 10 meters away from it.

You are the secret of my happiness.

I wasn't sure if WeBoost products were good or not. At least one product endorsement is better than no feedback at all. I was hoping to find a good solution for less than 500$ though.

I need a booster for a remote area where less than 10 employees are working. 3G signal should be enough. They'll get LTE when they'll come back to urban area. The nearest cellular towers are 37Km and 39Km away, within a 20¤ radius. I've found this kit that I think might do ...
