    Thanks for all the recommendations. I ended up going with a slightly more expensive card (had an Amazon.com gift card). EVGA GeForce GTX650Ti Boost 2GB It barely fit in my Antec P180. I didn't realize these things were larger than small motherboards now.

    Interesting. Does this cover tires as well? My wheels and tires are constantly getting busted from the potholes in Chicago.

    Carbon Dioxide into rock.

    I was wondering the same thing while reading the article. More energy usage means more carbon output, which means more raw materials.

    Another way to lose your next election in most states is to support spending money on public transportation. I think this is incredibly shortsighted by the electorate.

    Yeah, I read a bit more about it and that sounds accurate. It's too bad because AMD has been spending a lot of effort making their open source driver better and nVidia has done nothing.

    Does anyone have any experience with AMD Radeon cards in Linux? Seems that the most bang for the buck under $100 is the Radeon HD 7770.

    So, are you suggesting I go with a GT440 based card? Also, the monitor runs at 2560x1440.

    So, using an old nVidia video card seems to cause problems at this resolution depending on what I'm doing. Browsing image heavy websites with animations will cause the video to completely lock up for extended periods of time. I'd like to replace the video card with something a little more...

    Cracking Windows Passwords

    I don't know if that's true for encryption or hashes. Imagine two scenarios with a user table/DB from a large internet company being released to the public: 1. Passwords in the table are standard SHA-256 hashes. 2. Passwords in the table are SHA-256, but there's another column in the table...

    I was just trying to figure out why a rainbow table attack would work on NTLM, because no one in their right mind would design a system that doesn't use salts. But, apparently NTLM doesn't use salts.

    I would look at getting a new ISP that offers an open source web content management systems such as Drupal, Joomla, Wordpress, etc. All three of these are fairly easy to use depending on what functionality you are looking for. They all support extensions to add functionality that isn't available...

    It appears that the "website" is just a giant flash file with everything embedded in it. You will be better off paying someone to recreate your website in an accessible technology than trying to maintain what's already there.

    question Which Tablets

    It certainly looks nice and I will recommend it to anyone looking for a tablet. I just don't know what I would use a tablet for. At work I have a powerful laptop. At home I have an HTPC and a Desktop. Everywhere else I have a GS3.
