Damn it! I don't have enough time to sleep properly and now they shave an hour off my day. What have I done to this world?

Don't ask me what they changed other than the version number. Bengali (India) for Mubs Hindi (India) also for Mubs English US still for Mubs (Damn, make up your mind man) and most others. French for Time's wife German for Buck Dutch for Chewy's father Swedish for The Swede I searched a...

Corsair? Is there a low-power computing thread somewhere? We are derailing this one.

I'd rather buy a Kingston low voltage DDR3 kit. 14$ more, but at least it has a Cas latency of 9 cycle instead of the horrible 11 cycles of the Crucial kit.

Similar tool : Universal USB installer. I haven't created a boot drive with it yet, but it seems pretty nifty.

BTW, is it possible to make a stripe of PCIe SSDs? I ask in case Santilli plans to buy some soon.

In the same line of ideas, Micron launched a new series of PCIe SSD for enterprises. Both freakingly fast and freakingly expensive. The speed is unheard of, at least from what I read so far. The price is quite high : ~2800$ for the 175GB model, ~5600$ for the 350GB one.

What did you broke again? We'll call you mister glassman.

Well Santilli has been going nuts for nothing. It's officially been the fourth warmest Winter in the history of the United States and only the state of New Mexico has had colder than average temperatures. It means San Francisco has been warmer than average. Give your excuses to Al Gore ; we...

Why don't you just move "My Documents" to the secondary large drive or array? They won't fill the system drive that way because it would be extra work for them to move things to the system drive from the location their stuff is saved by default. Users are lazy, they won't do it.

They should make electrically-conductive paint made of these LED. Illuminated walls which have almost no energy cost.

Still closer to reality than Seagate's reliability numbers IMO.

The press release I linked is from WD's own web site. How could it not be true? And I don't think it's an Hibachi design as it uses the same form factor and rotational speed as their older Raptor models.

Mooner, putting a tarantula on your face is not something you do. Ever. Their bites are poisonous and quite painful. Not something you want to experience, especially near your main nervous system (brain). I don't think you can die from a tarantula bite, unless you are very young or very old...

The S25 SAS. Press release Up to 900GB capacity, max 204MB/s transfer rate, 2.5" form factor, 32MB cache, SAS 6Gbps interface, 7.8W max/5.3W at idle, 5 years warranty, rather noisy with 37dBA seeks. No idea about the price. Much slower than an SSD, but also certainly cheaper for similar...

Only the 3.5" drives, apparently. In a way, it sucks, because Toshiba is harder to deal with on the RMA side. On the other hand, Hitachi's great ingeneering team should remain more intact with a Toshiba takeover than with a Western Digital takeover because Toshiba doesn't already have 3.5"...

Which GigaByte board? And when are the 8-core/16-thread desktop CPUs coming from Intel?

I guess there was a crisis or an emergency and your signal ut before finishing your sentence?

Ever heard about BIOS modding and SLIC 2.1? You could visit My Digital Life forums and look for a modified BIOS for your Thinkpad R61. With a certain software by Ulead, you could end up with a pretty cheap activated Windows 7 installation. Not that I encourage you to do it. I'm just saying...

I made a simulation if the asteriod would hit Earth at 500Km from my home (Québec is 1500Km wide from South to North). I haven't read about the composition and angle of the asteroid, but assumed it is made of porrous rock and that it would hit Earth at a 45 degree angle, which is typical for an...

Anything less than a 100m asteroid wouldn't cause much damage if it would collide with Earth. I won't lose sleep over it.

I've always wanted to ask but, what are these N version? What do they have more or less than the regular versions?

I restarted GPU folding with ther new v7 beta client on my GeForce 440 and it's turning my system into a sluggish snail. I can't even watch a video on Youtube properly and just net browsing on Firefox is painfully slow. Playing Mah Jongg on my Windows 7 computer is only a faint memory now. At...

Anyone heard news about Howell since the tornadoes from last week? It was quite windy in his neck of the woods last year. I hope he's alright.

First off, I wish "apairofpcs" would be a pair of something else, although I wouldn't care unless you'd be half your age. Secondly, you can probably forget the driver route, since it freezes in both WinXP and Win7 and the drivers for both are generally quite different. Third, I believe you're...

I prefer folding proteins than folding paper airplanes. Probably more useful for humanity too. I'll probably never make it to the Guiness record book, but that's fine. I prefer it that way.

If anyone here thinks he has no life, well, there's worse than you.

Microsoft doesn't care for "people" regarding their entreprise softwares. Individuals aren't the targetted market for Windows Server OSes and SQL softwares. Companies usually have little worries about download caps. My internet service for instance, allow me 500GB of monthly traffic. A one...

Me? I just gaze them thru a loop and incinerate them.

I'm sure he hopes the stripper will keep more than her eyes wide open.

Yeah. Earthquake or hurricane, make your choice.

Sechs and Buck must not be very far from you either. Less than a day drive. I'm sure you'd like to meet Sechs. I expect him to be friendly in the same way as Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. ;)

That, Handruin, is almost a dictionary definition of a mistake.

Are you talking about liying "not telling the truth" or lying on the horizontal plane? Cause both could easily apply here.

Since I'd know the clients' addresses, I doubt there would be any complains about my service.

The Kingston Hyper X SSD shouldn't be a bad choice either. Just as fast as the other two also.

You could suggest them to hire me as a field guy ; I would make sure they get at least the same amount of repairs from ruggedized laptops as they did back when they had normal laptops, so you wouldn't have to get a ruggedized laptop. No human technology is CougTek-proof.

I never took steroids in my life. I've always been against their usage. I've always believed that you should only go up to what your standard diet allows you to go. I try to integrate protein-rich food (not supplements) in my diet during the periods I train the most, but that's as far as I've...

My younger brother is 50lbs heavier than I am and has almost three times higher body fat than I have. He's been training 4-5 times a week for the past nine months though, but was severely overweighted for the previous 8 years. We have very different body proportions. I'm not sure there is...

Most of the time, I average ~135/~68. Is that what you're talking about? I'll try to go take a walk more often. I probably don't move enough. I either train hard or do absolutely nothing. Guess I'll have to add a medium exercice period on my daily schedule. I don't plan to start taking...

I think he's talking about the scrolling menu at the bottom of the page of a thread that let you go back to another forum. We no longer have it.

Doctors here are little more than pills dispenser. 10-15 minutes per patient max so that they can pass the beautiful sunshine card (our version of medicare) and collect their state-provided money. I'd rather find the reason/cause/treatment by myself. Fixing a human body can't be much more...

I've been monitoring my blood pressure for a few weeks. While my diastolic pressure always is in the desirable range, my systolic pressure indicates that I do prehypertension. Among the main cause of prehypertension, the only one I have is a sedentary life style. I don't smoke, only causally...

Because I used the drive to make a backup of a customer files and I don't want to send anyone's personnal files loose in the wild. I'm pretty sure you protect your data as well.

I share the dude's feeling about this. Paying for a theme sounds as good as an investment as paying for a ring tone. If someone truely wants a paid-for theme, then why not just buy it (or send the money to Doug so he can do it), but my advice would be to create one to your own taste if nothing...

I would strongly advise against using IBM's DFT 4.16 to low-level format Hitachi's new drives. I used the utility to llf the 7K1000.C they sent me yesterday and after some 28 hours of work, it only did ~30% of the formatting. I estimate it will need almost four days to complete the job. Also...

413 posts in this thread (well, 414 with this one).

I don't see where to check how many posts I did for a specific thread. Please enlight me. I suspect I must be one of the main offensers as well.

In twenty or thirty years, when your eyesight will severely degrade, you'll appreciate pixels the size of your head. A good monitor for Pradeep and a good monitor for Santilli are probably two very different things.
