They have places where it doesn't snow?

Yup. That tire is done.

If you don't mind swapping countries, Pokara Nepal is one of my top-5 favorites.

I'm with the rest in expecting it can, however I would recommend just pulling the VM files out to your 7 build and running the 98 VM alongside the XP VM, instead of inside it.

I've only ever seen a bent pin on a product bought at Fry's electronics. And that was on something manhandled by some other customer and then returned. Did the board have the black plastic protector clipped over the socket? I wouldn't accept one without that. It also sounds like the entire...

Ouch. Remind me what size wheel you got again? I've hit quite a few rocks and the like on my 18"s without issue.

I have a bunch of the "horizontal" heatsinks. One of the thoughts against them is that the components around the CPU on the motherboard could use some cooling themselves (MOSFETS, other power handling bits, RAM, etc). So lately I've been going with larger top-down designs myself. Of course...

On a loose surface I can get the back end out quite a ways without disabling ESC at all. Have you tried that?

Unless you plan on continuous max load I wouldn't worry about it. How high will the ambient get?

Yeah, but this centered a ways down the valley. All it did was remind me to tighten the bolts on the bed frame.

Next time I build a monster rig I might hold on to it for a little bit just to give you a scare ;)

As a manufacturer? A bunch. Not much name recognition, but they were a massive OEM.

The problem with the RS5 and a kid on the way is no back doors. So an S7 is more likely. Of course I would prefer the practicality of an S6 Avant, but they have taken away that option for the more stylish and higher margin 7. I think that the driving simulators in the garage have helped stem...

Yeah...snow tires, what an interesting idea. 80F here all last week. I'm now drooling over the RS5. I've never considered tracking my car, but now you have me thinking about it. With Laguna Seca about 10 miles away...

Yup, multiple users at different times. And some of the laptops are not USB3.0. I ended up getting the Pluggable solution, I hope to get it installed Monday.

I think the part about not burning up that hasn't been brought up is mass. The only reason heat would build up is if there is enough energy in the system to push through the resistance of the air and in giving up this energy as heat. The energy can only come from increased mass or increased...

Taking this rare opportunity to record that my desk was once clean.

Indeed. And he was General Secretary of the Communist Party.

I don't even think you'll need to import to make it work. With all that hassle I'd just run it.

Ah, passphrase, not password. Got it. Yes, you are generous with your time.

90% of the time when I get that call I give them the default for their hardware and it works.

Remote desktop is your friend...just config the RAID cards after it starts up.

YouTube is presently down, so we can expect GDP to double in the next few hours...

Nope. And I have a bunch of calendars running and haven't visited the app since last reboot.

Still loving it. Does pretty much everything I want a phone to do. Even when I think of new things I want my phone to do, there is usually a free app for that.

Link to an article that doesn't require a sub...

Are you sure it won't post? My first server for the coffin would only initialize video cards in the first PCIex16 slot (even if I had a PCI card in it no video would come out). However, in a fully headless config (no video card at all) the RAID card would work fine. Just had to do all work remotely.

It has been out for a whole bunch of years, and enterprise-grade drives are being released by bit names. These things don't happen to risky tech. And as Merc said, the rewards are staggering. Really horse and buggy vs. car stuff.

In my experience the fundamental problem with all of them is that they are separate devices. It doesn't forward the sound from your soundcard, it has another soundcard. Same with video and NIC. This can make settings complicated to get right to start.

I have a situation where three different people with three different makes and models of laptops (2 XP, 1 7) will be sharing a desk. I have limited experience with "universal laptop docks" that are basically USB hubs with integrated sound, NIC, and video. Anyone have a favorite? Tips? Other...

DNS Benchmark. Does what it says, lots 'o data, interesting results. Edit: according to the readme, written in 100% assembly by the same folks that did Spinrite.

I know I have at least a couple of the 120s in workstations around here (no idea which ones), and haven't had any complaints. Of course, it could be firmware specific...

IIRC, ASRock is just ASUS' lower spec'ed brother.

Glympse looks awesome. I'll be playing with that over the next couple days. Thanks!

I think that is the same one I've been buying. Merc has my spare at the moment, so I can't check.

I was thinking about it, my biggest concern would be if they required an even louder listening volume before sounding good.

I am sorry to hear that, but I suppose there are many silver linings there. The kids are old enough to be able to survive on their own and he didn't take anyone else with him. I knew quite a few people like that, but they were all dead or smarter by the time they were 30-35.

Everyone finally went home and I got to crank it. I now understand why people were looking for a subwoofer; even on the deepest of dubstep mixes it never hits bottom. Each lower note is distinctly...lower. Songs like "Cupid & Orlando" by Aromabar sound fantastic; it sounds like the...

I don't know how to reference the volume level. The Windows volume level is at 20% and the knob on the speakers is turned up ~15 degrees from off; at about the 8:30 position. Turning it to 40% and the 9-o'clock makes all the difference.

Did you use the little rubber feet they shipped with?

I currently have both at 0. From what I can see it looks like the LF goes to -2 or -4 only. I suppose I could set the HF to -2? I've upped the volume a bit, and since there is no sub, my neighbors still can't hear it. The speakers sound fantastic once the volume is a little higher.

Got the Emotiva Airmotiv-4s this morning. Hooked them up to a Creative USB Sound Blaster HD I had kicking around and put them on some Auralex monitor stands that elevate them a bit and air them more towards my head. I don't know if near field are always this directionally sensitive, but it...

I'm looking for an app that will post my phone's location and path every minute or so on a Google maps page, primarily so my wife will know where I am when I go out for solo rides alone. I'm playing with life360, but it is too wholesome for me...all about children and sexual offenders and can't...

seconded.

With 4 drives, if you want to focus on capacity with some redundancy RAID-5 is the way to go (3TB usable). If you want more speed and still redundancy you can go RAID-10 (2TB usable) If you just want speed you can go RAID-0 (4TB usable, if any drive dies you lose all your data)

Nice page...very useful.

Yeah, dated yourself a bit there :p

Updated. Thanks.

ditto.
