  1. Re:Idea on How to Protect Radio Signals Over Short Distances? · · Score: 1

    Yeap. You should use the latest technology trends:
    - Coax cable in a "Bus" topology.
    - BNC connectors and T-shaped spliters for each device.
    - 50 Ohm rezistive terminators at the end of the Bus
    - And use the latest transmission devices using the industry proven 10Base2 transcievers which can send or receive data at up to 10 Mbit/sec ! They use a 20Mhz carrier so you don't get interference with wifi. The range is up to 200 meters.

    You can even run IP over this advanced data transmission setup.

  5. Re:I think it;s worth it and the idea is great. on Are nVidia's SLI Cards Worth the Investment? · · Score: 4, Informative

    There are A LOT of cards with 2 (or even 3) outputs on the market now. You don't need 2 cards. And /even/ if you decide to put 2 cards (that support SLI) in your PC, you will have to REMOVE the SLI cable to get 2 outputs :)

    Matrox Rules. We need no stinkin' sli 'cause the Matrox cards don't have any 3D performance to speak either :)

  7. Re:Fork bombs on How to Take Over a Train Station · · Score: 1
    Your version of forkbomb is not 3VIL enough. Consider this version:
    void main() {
    while(1) {
    malloc(rand());
    fork();
    }
    }

    > From a compatibility and performance standpoint, I've always liked it better than AIX, though I'd still pick Solaris if forced to pick a commercial UNIX.

    To quote an HP Support Engineer: The HP-RISC servers would be the best if they had Solaris as the O/S.

  23. Overclock & CDROM on Abused, But Working Hardware Stories? · · Score: 1

    1) This was happening before heatsinks were invented. 286 16Mhz in a PLCC socket overclocked to 33 Mhz (replaced 32Mhz quartz cristal with 66Mhz). After a minute it was so hot that in shot out of the socket like a bullet and hit the ceiling. Replaced the 66Mhz quartz with an 44.5Mhz, put the cpu back and it worked for many years on.

    2) After loosing some game - crazy neighbour kid pulls out brand new 4x cdrom drive out of case and steps on it on it. The cdrom case is now tilted about 30 degrees sideways. I bought the cdrom from the kid for the price of an icecream. After 2 days of soldering and gluing together small broken pieces of plasic - the cdrom works. It looked like Frankenstein but it worked for 3 years on.
