32" 1080p TVs aren't that rare anymore.

Uh... I can't tell if you're attempting to troll me or not. There's very little risk / possible downside to getting a mole removed. Glaucoma and cataracts aren't on par with needing glasses / contacts. Glasses and contacts can't fix those. So, you can go blind for sure, or risk ending up...

Which of those is an elective surgery on a vital organ? :scratch:

One of these things is not like the others...

An elective surgery on a vital organ, no thanks.

What OS do you plan to run on it? It's reportedly capable of 1080p playback from what I've read on the XBMC/Kodi forums (with Raspbmc).

What are you trying to stream (audio, video, format, etc) and do you mean by streaming device? Is it the recipient or the sender?

Why not get them from China then?

Not me. I have XBMC/Kodi playing my flac files over SMB shares directly.

I don't see how the product Merc's recommended is going to help you unless it "accidentally" strips HDCP so you could use a HDMI/DVI capture card. If you're looking for analog from an HDMI input (since I'm not sure if the HD Direct TV receiver has component out), as far as I know you need...

I'm pretty sure that converts component to HDMI, not the other way around.

Okay, that's pretty cool. :thumbleft:

I personally wouldn't do it, but that's just me. You're going to thin the paint on the car, perhaps considerably if the orange peel is bad.

But he's talking about a 10' iPad, not a 10". Big difference! ;)

I found this thread. I haven't tried any of the patches.

I'm sure some resourceful people will figure out how to repatch it in relatively short order.

The last page of comments on that article indicate this update is to blame.

Has anyone else had an issue where they can no longer RDP into a patched (hacked) Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 box? I can't RDP into my HTPC any more which runs Windows 7 Home Premium SP1. I've been using the concurrent logon patch from missing remote. It's worked for years up until the last...

I agree, I have one (Nexus 7" 2013).

It's also quite a bit more money. Maybe Asus will release their own 7" Nexus (2013) successor tablet instead.

It makes it hard to get a drink unless you pour your own.

Eh, doesn't matter now. The drive is more or less dead. I tried running TestDisk on it last night and around the 90% mark of the scan the drive stopped responding and it's basically dead now. I'm traveling on Monday and need to give several days of training. I knew my companies IT people...

So my work Lenovo sort of died today. It locked up and after forcing it off and turning it back on it got stuck in a BSOD boot loop (even safe mode). Something about an Unmountable Boot Volume. I downloaded the rescue .iso from symantec for PGP 10.2 MP4 and decrypted the drive successfully...

How many matching tracks do you estimate there really are? Or should there be none?

The 512GB 840 Pro was $250 yesterday at Newegg.

Don't know, don't care...

Maxwell only has a hybrid decoder for HEVC. Kepler supports the same hybrid decoder.

Roughly how many MB/sec are you talking for each of these?

That's for the HDMI output (if you were using it).

You've heard about their huge IPO a few days back? It's sort of like a cross between Ebay and the Amazon marketplace.

Sometimes it pays to do a little Googling when you're music shopping... I wanted these two albums (#1 & #2). They're limited edition (only 2000 made) and apparently the supply dried up a while back causing prices to rise. They're equally expensive on ebay. However, the record company that...

That's good, otherwise you'd have to borrow one of those new Corvette Z06's from the test fleet and pay Merc a visit pronto! ;)

BTW, I see a 10% coupon promotion on them now at Newegg. "10% off w/ promo code AF0925EX, limited offer"

Did anyone ever try the Dell H700 PERC cards? Reportedly they removed the firmware block on non Dell drives several years back. I'm beginning to think about updating my server and I will need drives larger than 2TB. I'd like RAID-6. I see H700's for around $100 on ebay. The 5i cards were...

How much were those drives?

Yeah, I'm not so sure about that. I read a 1400+ post thread on AVSforum about it, and it seems much too early to draw any conclusions other than the 55" is an IPS panel not suited for dark room viewing.

It's too bad they don't have any Samsung data.

I agree there's a lack of information. Since you're not counting on APR for a future warranty there's not a lot of risk from your side.

I guess it all comes down to how much you download vs. what you pay per month.

Anyone using Block access for USEnet? I've been paying monthly, and it seems like I could save a fair bit moving to the pre-paid "block" model.

A 9" 2048x1440 display is low DPI? :scratch: I'm a little more puzzled by the odd aspect ratio (if that resolution is correct). The rumors I saw at The Inquirer said 2560x1600.

FWIW, it sounds like you may have gotten a partial regurgitation of some APR distributed talking points.

Have you gotten all your APR goodies? Word on the street is they're in somewhat questionable financial situation. link

Doesn't that break any RAID array too? I seem to recall that switching from RAID/AHCI to IDE would cause the RAID arrays to be lost when you switched it back to RAID/AHCI. I stopped buying Asus boards some time back. I haven't seen that with the Gigabyte or Asrock boards I've bought.

Interesting... I checked it out for a few minutes on my tablet. The graphics stream was smooth. A little blocky at times, but decent. PC games certainly have improved their graphics since I was playing them in college 15 years ago.

The Anandtech review mentioned that there's currently no way to use the HEVC encoder. The drivers don't expose it.

It seems AMD is getting left behind on the power front in GPUs now as well as CPUs. You can't compete on price forever and stay afloat

Barefoot

Since when has potential confusion in the model numbers stopped Nvidia or AMD? :scratch: :p
