  1. White smoke, bah! on Hard Drive Overclocking Competition From Secau · · Score: 1

    If you're OC'ing an SSD, wouldn't it be blue smoke? http://www.ncat.edu/~dowtin/pc/smoke.html Can you effectively OC an SSD?

  2. Just don't bring it. on Keeping a PC Personal At School? · · Score: 1

    If no one else brings one, why do you need one? End of problem. Good luck!

  3. 42 mpg? on US To Require That New Cars Get 42 MPG By 2016 · · Score: 1

    are they going to run on fish or tea? Improbable I tell you...

  4. Re:Work Experience on Go For a Masters, Or Not? · · Score: 1

    The biggest problem in the school systems regarding Teachers is not what they know, it's how they teach. There are at least two Teachers in my HS District that would rather plow through the curriculum and berate students trying to understand than take the time to enlighten them. It's a shame...

  5. I have yet to see it. on Is a $72.5m Opening Weekend Enough For Star Trek? · · Score: 1

    The commercials always hype any new movie. I did happen to see Wolverine. I'd give it a 7 out of 10. I may go see Star Trek this coming weekend but from what I've read even non Trekkies thought it was great.

  6. Back to basics on German Gov To Ban Paintballing After Shooting · · Score: 1

    Who's the leading manufacturer of BB Guns in Germany? Looks like I"ll be investing...

  7. Re:How to handle voting? on CCP Speaks On Player-Elected Advisors For EVE Online · · Score: 1

    EVE has only 1 shard.

  8. Re:Ranting against "evil Russians" to commence... on Small Nuclear Power Plants To Dot the Arctic Circle · · Score: 1

    Don't worry this is a fast track to melting the ice caps, so I'm buying beach front property in the Sahara, Death Valley, and Gobi deserts. =) I'm thinking perhaps they watched too many reruns of Total Recall.

  9. Re:Of course I'd pay. on Would You Pay For YouTube Videos? · · Score: 1

    You're right. That'll be $1.99 for viewing this commentary.

  10. Re:Railroading on "Tabletop" Fusion Researcher Committed Scientific Misconduct · · Score: 1

    They all forgot to add cheese.

  11. Re:If you're going to live in the US ... on Learn a Foreign Language As an Engineer? · · Score: 0

    No offense, but 99% of the Spanish speaking population in my area pick vegetables. I'd go with Hindi, they seem more interested in being educated.

  12. What's a Google? on Is Google Making Us Stupid? · · Score: 0

    Hrm, what?

  13. so much easier to teach them to on Proposed Legislation Would Outlaw "Cyberbullying" in US · · Score: 0

    /ignore "stupidignoranthatemonger" ahhh, silence. There, that was so much easier wasn't it? Inform, educate, enlighten. Stop trying to make more work for the "system" because your too damn bitter. Encourage your kids to be proactive, not vindictive. Hello!

  14. it made of cheese! on What Shall We Do With the Moon Once We Get There? · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Bring crackers and wine? FP. =P

  15. Re:Ha, ha on Nuclear Scanning Catches a Radioactive Cat On I-5 · · Score: 1

    You don't. Now bend over, I'll make this as painless as possible.

  16. Re:A flaw? A FLAW? on Matter, Anti-Matter, and a New Subatomic Particle? · · Score: 1

    I'd have to disagree that a black hole is a memory leak. While memory leaks do "eat up" space, black holes destroy is. Perhaps requantafying a black hole to say perhaps, Microsoft would be better?
    After all, they eat up everything and what comes out?

  17. Re:Star Trekkin' Across the Universe on Matter, Anti-Matter, and a New Subatomic Particle? · · Score: 1

    for Voyager, I believe it was the Omega Particle. (which was also the name of the classified order to destroy it.)

  18. I concur on A New Concept in Supercomputers · · Score: 1

    This is by far a "supercomputer". State of the art (art notwithstanding) bleeding edge desktop? Perhaps. Unconventional? Not today. Overly expensive? For sure...

    If you get any reputable PC mag I'm sure they have a modder section with some pretty far out PCs.

  19. Re:Happy pi day everyone!! on Happy Pi Day · · Score: 1

    Gadzooks!

  20. All of the flavor, none of the calories. on Why Don't We Invent That Tomorrow? · · Score: 1

    High output, low (or no) waste power. Fusion or anti-matter. ...or high temp superconductors at the very least. Hundreds of things will stem from the former....

  21. Re:Slow/quick end.... on Is AMD Dead Yet? · · Score: 1

    ATi's new series wasn't meant to be an nVidia killer, it was meant to be a price vs performance card. I think they won in that dept. What percentage of the population spends $600-$800 on a single graphics card? Certainly not me. I love the higher-end middle of the road cards.

    As far as AMD's CPUs, I'm getting the feeling that their yields aren't as good as planned. Hence the "Tri-Core" Phenoms, previously Quad-Core. But who's to say Intel isn't having the same issues, Core 2 Duos, formerly Core 2 Quads.

    Also contributing to AMD's lack of income is the current state of the economy. Who's buying hardware when the mortgage is more important? The most important things Intel has going for them now are their maturity, current CPUs and perhaps some luck in not buying out another large company.

  22. Was and always will be for me on What's The Greatest Web Software Ever? · · Score: 1

    is Kali, by Jay Cotton. Was and is a great piece of software to allow gamers to chat with others via public or private rooms, and start/find/join games. Was a great tool in DOS, and still is in windows. Though others, like X-Fire have spawned also.
