Son, seems like you've got a crack problem there. You should get some caulk and stick it up in that crack, seal it up nice and tight. You seem like you know your way around caulk, so I'll leave you to whatever kind you prefer.
(note: for the joke to be properly enjoyed, mispronounce 'caulk')
It's the "momentum" of big business, so to speak. Something as big as Dell can't just turn on a dime. They'll probably start switching back to Intel because of Core 2, and in 3 years when they actually do it, AMD will be back on top.
The cell is capable of storing a file the size of the United States' Declaration of Independence with room left over. Yeah, but how many 747s does it weigh?...no, wait, how many Sears Towers is its height?
Damn, none of my vague comparisons fit...
WAIT! How many angels can dance on it? That one is for small stuff, right?
I've had to replace the electrolytic caps on motherboards many times now due to explosion, leaking, etc. If this'll keep me from having to do that again, I'll do it.
We had Deep Freeze on some computers at the high school I went to. It makes the computers slow as piss because there's a lot more disk access (for some reason - can't remember why right now) and it's trivial to bypass if you have a DOS/Linux boot disk.
See this "1337 dud3" for more information. Informative, even if it sounds like a 13-year-old on AIM. ("LOLZ I HAX0RED j00 WIT T3H SUB7 LOLZ!")
That's really interesting. The German constitution explicitly says "There shall be no censorship." However, laws exist in Germany that prohibit the use of Nazi-related symbolism and the accompanying phrases. How do they reconcile that seeming cognitive dissonance?
Note: IANANN (I Am Not A Neo-Nazi, just a dirty hippie), I just believe that holding certain words and phrases as "taboo" because they were associated with certain unsavory people or activities is stupid. The word/symbol isn't the problem, the activity and intent behind the word/symbol is.
FUD is an acronym that, fully expanded, is Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt.
It is used to desribe situations where people will write things that technically are true but blown way out of proportion in order to scare other people into going along with their latest and greatest idea. (ZOMG XBOX SUX! IT EETS BABIES!!! WE MUST BOYCOTZORS TEH MICRO$UCK!!!)
(disclaimer: i don't like the 360 or microsoft. they are both ugly, overrated giants that blow way too much hot air for my preferences)
The other neat thing about FB-DIMM, from what I've heard, is the socket changes in AMD models every time they implement a new memory technology will no longer be necessary because the FB-DIMM pinouts don't change.
It's not that horrible of a difference, especially considering that the FB-DIMM is ECC and buffered, while the other stick is ECC unbuffered (I couldn't find a stick of normal DDR2 that was marked "fully buffered," maybe someone else could do better than me)

Everyone whose Senators are listed should do this. At least we can legitimately say we did our part.
From the article: 'Already, IE has seen its U.S. market share on Windows computers drop to 90 percent from 97 percent two years ago, according to tracking by WebSideStory. Firefox's share has steadily increased to 9 percent, with Opera's negligible despite its innovations.
The statistics in the article specifically reference Windows.

The RIAA seems to have a problem making things stick in the Windy City.
Well, there's only so mush shit you can throw at a wall before it stops sticking.
I've seen 2 posts so far where you state that Vista has some superior "resource management" that will make a massive difference in between it and XP.
From my personal experience with Vista, everything runs slower than on XP. Identical binaries, identical versions, Vista is slower.
Why should DirectX 10 be any different?
I assume he means acceleration at 1G horizontal, in addition to the vertical 1G from gravity.
So it'd be like a net acceleration of sqrt(2) G's at a 45 degree angle coming out of your feet. Or I'm wrong, I suck at vector addition.
Silly citizens.
Civil rights are for terrorists!

This really gives new meaning to the term "computer virus."
But I thought we were an autonomous collective.
The extremists have mod points, apparently.
And here I was buying the gf jewelry like a sucker, when I could have been getting her tubers.
Isn't the goal of giving jewelry now to give her the tuber later?
That's awesome.
Can I be your disciple?
Hooray for the Church of Sanity!
Same method, except you throw the electrified chair at them whenever they don't do what you want.

Who the FUCK cuts an APPLE into their ARM?
Jesus, i understand kernel panics and BSoD's can be depressing, but i've never had the urge to carve "Oops, Kernel Panic" into my fucking skin.
Good to see the rest of the world recognizing his abject insanity.

A 1GB FB-DIMM of Crucial DDR2 533 is $147.99

Another stick of the same RAM from Crucial in traditional format is about $110, although this is OEM, so it's probably a little cheaper.

In turn, the company has employed black hat hackers for what is called a penetration, or pen, test team.
So, if they go through fourteen teams, will the next one be the Pen15 team?
