    RIAA: U.S. Copyright Law 'Isn't Working'

    These guys need to stop. While I am no fan of piracy, all of these measures to "protect the content" just make it harder for legitimate users to enjoy the product they purchased. Here's a novel concept. How about, instead of trying to pass laws to stop the progression of society and...

    Thinking of going SFF, need some advice

    My old shuttle had some minor heat issues (was running an Athlon XP 1700+, just to give you an idea of how long ago this was). Do shuttles still have this problem or do they run pretty cool these days?

    Thinking of going SFF, need some advice

    Hey everyone. I used to be a hardware geek (kept up to date on all the latest hardware releases and such) but since finishing college I've really fallen out of the loop. I've decided that it's time to upgrade my aging gaming rig (X2 4600+, 2GB RAM, Geforce 8800GT) and I'm considering going SFF...

    I've been attending since 2004 (I'm one of the original founders, now semi-retired). I really don't play too many games these days, but I have still been in attendance at every Pittco and I have always had loads of fun!

    How to fulfill my Dream?

    I don't work in the video game industry myself so I couldn't tell you exacts, but I did make a video game for a class in College. My project was a space shooter game so the math wasn't too bad, but one of the projects was building a game that involved blowing up objects (similar to Red Faction...

    How to fulfill my Dream?

    If you want to get into the video game industry as a programmer then you need to get at least a BS in Computer Science with a minor in Physics or Mathematics. Learn C++ inside and out, as that will be your new best friend, learning Python would also be a good thing as well, as it seems some...

    List the programs you use.

    These days: Eclipse, Emacs, Gnome's Terminal (and Quake), Chromium, and Firefox. In College: Emacs and a Terminal. :D I used to write mostly C/C++ in college, but now in the "real" world I mostly do work with PHP and JavaScript.

    why am i not able to access my home WAMP server from internet?

    If you try to go to that address from another computer on the network are you able to connect? Apache may be configured to not allow anyone other than localhost.

    Your Laptop Picture [H]ere (read first post for rules please)

    I bought it on Saturday (Feb 2nd) from the Apple Store in Pittsburgh and already I have used it almost non-stop. The switch back to Mac OS (the last time I owned a Mac was in 1996) has been completely stemless. Now I just need to find some decent office software, gawd I wish Office 2008 would...

    Post Your Mac Setup!

    Yeah I just set it up like that today because my old setup was extremely cluttered and inefficient. Now that I don't have my massive Sager on my desk I actually have some room to spread things out a bit.

    Post Your Mac Setup!

    There is my new Black Macbook and my whole setup pretty much. The Macbook is my first Mac since 1996 but I am starting to pick up on it. I'm glad to be back in the Mac world!

    Your Laptop Picture [H]ere (read first post for rules please)

    Here is my new Black Macbook. If you remember two summers ago I purchased a Sager 3880 but due to ATS going out of business and my warranty being voided I have decided to sell it and purchase a new machine. This is the Sager's replacement.
