  1. Chrome locks up/Goes to 100% CPU on Google's Chrome Declining In Popularity · · Score: 1

    I've been loving chrome, the fast startup is really what brings me back day after day, but it has a big problem with flash and pdf's. Often times watching videos sends the cpu to 100%, sometimes for 20-30 seconds, longer than it takes to startup FF which doesn't have this problem. And it always seems to do it when viewing pdf in-browser, trying to scroll immediately sends it to 100% cpu, rendering it unusable. If they can fix these bits, I wouldn't mind not having add-ons

    There we are, a mote of dust suspended in a sun beam, a pale blue dot.

  3. How about legal use of bittorrent? on Comcast Sued Over P2P Blocking · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Normally I wouldn't put in a comment about P2P and legality, except that the past 3 times I used bittorrent it was legal use and I paid for the downloads. If thats getting throttled, and I'm still paying $55 a month for my comcast cable internets....I'm a little miffed.

  4. Re:Pure gaming bliss. on Is nVidia Support for Older 3D Games Fading? · · Score: 0

    Wow, I'm doing that right now, I'm glad to see I'm not alone. Anyway, I have to run it in software mode as well as make a load of changes and home brewed tweaks. I don't mind though, because I'm crazy about this game, and its all worth it. I hope you have the qhimm forums bookmarked! Supposedly it only runs right(read:out of the box) on the windows 95 OS and hardware.

  6. Why? on Vista Startup Sound to be Mandatory? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Why? What would be the reasoning behind this?

  7. Re:IME on Viewpoint - A Spyware and Astroturfing Debate? · · Score: 1

    I've had it install itself without me knowing. It can be difficult to get rid of sometimes. When you uninstall it it wants you to say why before you finish. Often I'll be looking through my list of installed programs and every now and then I see it in the list. When I do, I get furious. I consider it a pest, like gator used to be. Therefore I consider it a form of malware.
