  2. and? (I live in HSV, and its HOT!) on Heat Wave Shuts Down Alabama Reactor · · Score: 1

    I live the same area, and even gone to guntersville as a weekend get away (American Idol winner, Taylor Hicks just bought a house on the river), if the river gets too hot, just the heat energy!

    I hope the levels dont go down too far, as alot of shipping is done on the river and that would create more heat as things would need to be moved by truck instead!

  3. LOL on DeLorean to Come Back (Sorta) · · Score: 1

    They should use VW 1.8T engines with standalone fuel like 034/ or Megasquirt and get 300HP out of the thing!

  4. I do this everyday, nothing new buddy! on Repair Computer, Repurchase OS? · · Score: 1

    I see emachines everyday with fried mainboards do to the fact when the PSU (Bestec) fails it over volts the board and fries the south bridge (and sometimes the MEM/CPU)

    If you can get a replacement board, I use asrock boards, they are cheap and they still are easy to find and have bios updates ect.
    you can use a generic windows XP Home disk and the COA from case of the machine, and activate over the phone or online if the machine is older.

    the Key in windows from the emachine factory does not activate it is a OEM
    "royalty key" that is preactivated from the factory based on the bios.

    if the cpu is fried, just get a cheap 754 chip and board combo for less then $100 USD

    Do not forget to replace the PSU in the machine, antec/PSP/sparkle/seasonic are great brands to look into.

    This issue also extends into some hp/dells ect.

    Machines are very cheap, you can score a nice Acer machine (they use gigabyte mainboards ect.) for $400> USD and they come with everything you need COA/KEY and they allow you to make a restore DVD set that is a nice respawn system with very little bloat.

  5. Richard Dawkins on Global Warming Only a Theory, Says School Board · · Score: 1

    These _________IST(S) that think the planet Earth is only 14K years old need to have a small discussion with Richard Dawkins! Don't forget that Bush is the same fundamentalist as they are, and look how he has run our country into the ground. People being scared of the facts, not mature enough to know that we are more evolved but still are related to other animals from our native environment. Childish, stubborn people need to learn to search for facts and prove what is real, not make the velveteen bunny out to be real.

  6. awsome on Physicist Trying To Send a Signal Back In Time · · Score: 1

    Just need to Kill Hitler right after the VW factory is made.(if you kill him to soon, the hippies would have no shagwagon, and the VAG 1.8T is a sweet engine) Warn pearl harbor, and have them kick Jap ass when they show up, and we prob don't have the drop 2 nukes on them to tell them who is boss. Block the Titanic from going near that big piece of ice, and have them build it with better bolts, that movie blew!

  7. Been there, done that on Hacking the Free "La Fonera" Wireless Router · · Score: 1
