I agree with Merc regarding the relative importance of monitors (high) and keyboards (low). I can live with a cheapo keyboard (up to a certain point), but I want a certain quality level with my main screen. With most people spending more time typing textos on their phone rather than typing on...
No no no! He's just the repair guy. Santilli wrote it earlier. Oh but, is it possible that there's another Neil in the same company? Noooo, can't possibly be... He certainly wrote to the company's president for a defective ~100$ keyboard (and got answered).
Hey, tell you what, next time I...
Of course. Why is that even a question? Just create a bootable USB installation and add the latest version of Malwarebytes and whatever other cleaning software you want on it and boot from the USB key.
The bootable USB installation Mercutio wrote about in another thread would do just that, if...
Wow, I watched the first video of that link and I had to concentrate quite a lot to understand some of the parts of her speech. I would expect that kind of accent from a labor worker, but not from a politician. It is not a critique, just an observation. If I ever go to Australia one day like...
I'm pretty sure it contains proprietary softwares and therefore is somewhat ~shady~ to share via a direct link. I'm downloading the fourth part of 13 pieces right now...
I've found it, but it will take a while to download. There's an 8GB and a 16GB version and I think I've found the bigger version. 13 compressed 1GB files from a free (meaning slow) file sharing web site. I hope I won't be limited to a single file per day. I know I can only do one at a time.
I don't know if it's a SandyBridge, IvyBridge, SnowyBridge, SunnyBridge, WindyBridge or DirtyBridge, but there's supposed to be an 8-core/16-thread consumer-grade processor coming out soon from Intel and I can't wait to see it in my price lists.
I have my new phone and my account with my new phone company has just been activated. I'm done being financially raped by Bell. My live just got better.
Do you really need the 12 drives to be in RAID or do you already own the motherboard? If not, you could save a bunch by opting for a motherboard that already has 12 or more SATA ports onboard. That's 600$ cheaper.
No first-hand experience, but it must be noisy as Hell with that little fan on it. From what I read on the Net, Areca makes above-average products. Except for the noise, you shouln't be disappointed with the performances.
Am I the only person here not to have the slightest idea what Angry birds is? I've learned a few minutes ago that it's a game. Why so many people give a shit about it?
I don't think I'll have and even if I do, my new phone provider gives me 120$ for cancelling fees with the old company.
And Merc, Seagate's way worse than Western Digital. The fail ratio with their drives is higher and their RMA system isn't as good. The simple fact that they've cut their...
I've completed the transfert to another company for my cellular phone. My new phone will be just that : a plain phone. Samsung C414v. Can't be more simple than that.
It been a busy day and I haven't had the time to go to a Bell Mobility store to make my monumental PHUCK YOU ALL visit. Maybe...
Nah, the phone was fine before I smashed it. It's the company that sold it to me and charging me each month for the calls I made with it that is shitty.
Now I know why Virgin Mobile has been so bad in recent years...
I already have quite an history with Bell. Basicly, anything that touches Bell I deal with ends up in a conflict. That company is made of lying incompetent bastards. I'm so glad to have found this because Virgin Mobile has no...
Let me explain the philosophy behind my behavior. I've seen plenty of people dying of cancer and it always was ugly. The common point between all of them was that they kept things inside : anger, grief, fear, etc. Me, I don't keep it inside. I don't have an anger management problem ; I don't...
My car has been paid completely for several years. I own it and the bank cannot take it from me. So no worries about that. In fact, in the state it is, I doubt they'd wish to do so anyway. I'm pretty sure I lock my doors for nothing too.
There's no longer any interior trim on the driver-side door of my car. The passenger side is a bit better, but has had its fair share of punishment, mainly during the two times I bent the driver-side door so badly that I had to maintain it close with straps and I had to enter my car by the...
One Virgin Mobile motherfucking arab employee called me this morning to tell me that I own them 133$ for the last month. My plan with them is supposed to cost ~60$ per month. I told him to go screw himself.
I no longer am a Virgin Mobile customer.
I don't know if there is some kind of Net attack going on this morning, but the network is slow. Every site I visit takes an unusual time to load and I have no other computer accessing Internet. I don't think it's my connection.
Ok, looking at all the benchmarks, the 7750 actually beats the 6770 slightly, but not in a way the user will notice. It's similar performance for the same price. To the customer's eyes, nothing changed except the number on the box. Disappointing.
The Radeon HD 7770 will suck at 199$. Can't even beat the cheaper Radeon HD 6850. The Radeon HD 7750 doesn't impress me either, failing to outperform the 120$ Radeon HD 6770.
It's pretty obvious when you deal with their support that Western Digital has yet to merge their support department with Hitachi's. The RMA support building isn't the same either. The filling form and phone support are different too.
You can say what you want about WD's products, but their...
The way you speak of them, they would probably be more useful as compost. They clearly past their useful life. Oh well, maybe they have grand children they can still make happy from time to time.
Thanks for the feedback. I've looked at the youtube video of Skyrim's gameplay at 1080p on a Radeon HD 5770 and while it was generally good, there was at least one instance when it was choppy (during a fight).
I think a Radeon HD 4870 is a more powerful card than a Radeon HD 6750. One...
Damn! Your clumbsiness is way worse than my temper for computer equipment. I was joking when I wrote that you are at an age where you do more things by accident than willingly, but now I'm not so sure.
I've been doing my accounting for last year and I can't believe there are people willing to do that to make a living. All the time I'm doing this, my brain is completely idle. It's just punching numbers after punching numbers. The death of the mind.
At least now I know why I've been so tight...
Someone I know would like to play Skyrim on his low profile computer. The enclosure is an Antec Minuet 350 and he loves it because it is virtually silent. There's no space on his desk for anything else than a small form factor enclosure. Even a shoebox like a Silverstone SG05 wouldn't fit...
I would compare it more to child pornography. If you tell me that watching child pornography doesn't make you a pedophile, I'll answer : yes, it does make you a pedophile. People watching Glee are just like people watching child porn : they do it for their own sick pleasure and it corrupts...
I'm doing my numbers (finances) for last year and I'm surprised how little I spent in the entire year on computers and peripherals. Including two Core i7 2600 systems, 4 printers I destroyed along a few enclosures too, as well as my main computer monitor, I only spent a little over 2400$ last...
Even though it's close to 3am here, I started a training session because I felt I had to man up. I can't get this crap out of my head. Guys, when I saw that video, the only thing I could think was...
I'm fucking traumatised.
I've been sadly exposed to a short video of some TV show called GLEE. What freaked me out is that it was all young people in there. That combined to the Justin Bieber madness worries me a lot about the future. Will young people all be like that in ten or twenty years? If yes, please tell me...
