    Old People Playing The Last Of Us

    Dilemma : I haven't played anything before / since it came out that I enjoyed quite as much. It's easily the best game I've ever played and I find the other games I've played since pale in comparison. My previous "favorite games ever" have been pushed down the list and have certainly lost...

    Fahrenheit Is A Better Temperature Scale Than Celsius

    A security system thought up by a marketing team. We all know this will work out well.

    Legendary Celeron 300A overclocked @ +700 MHz

    I still remember kyle pushing the Celeron 266 (with no L2 cache iirc) up to 454 or something crazy like that back in the day. It got me into it, I had a P2-300 (SL2W8) @ 465 (103 fsb) for about 5 or 6 years.

    SilverStone Olympia 1000W Power Supply 7 Year Redux @ [H]

    Based on my hobbies, I'm unsurprised that a power supply containing vented electrolytic capacitors has degraded and presents more ripple. The electrolytic capacitors are essentially perishable products, and seeing more ripple with age is very common in even high quality electrolytics. I'm...

    Man Arrested For Refusing To Unlock Phone At Border

    Of course we don't have the 4th amendment. We're not America, and that's fine with us. So far I think we're doing fine; but there are always exceptions. We have the charter of rights and freedoms, which for all intents and purposes is similar to your bill of rights.

    AMD Takes Aim At Exceptional Content With New LiquidVR Technologies

    Everyone seems to want a piece of VR. It's gonna be the next big thing, even though it already feels outdated. Remember how the sales on 3d tv's were mind-blowingly astronomical? Yeah, neither do I. Anyhoo, get your popcorn ready!

    Samsung: Our Smart TVs Do Not Monitor Living Room Conversations

    Hello Dan_D; My name is Dong B. Long. I'm currently the CTO of DongCo Digital Entertainment. We'd be verrrry interested in knowing specifically what you would "hit" and whose "fun bags" you find most appealing. If you could be more verbose whilst using your Samsung® Smart® TV with your...

    Google Chairman: "The Internet Will Disappear"

    I kinda miss the times when there was a certain amount of knowledge required to get on the internet. It did seem to keep the casuals at bay and the cute cat pics to a bare minimum.

    Memorable Overclocking-Friendly CPUs

    Oh! You jogged my memory; I think it was called Cryotec? The original system looked ridiculous, it was basically a separate cooling system that was for all intents and purposes bolted on to the bottom of a fairly plain white full-sized ATX tower. I was unaware people still did refrigeration...

    Memorable Overclocking-Friendly CPUs

    Ok. I forgot something, maybe someone will remember. Does anyone remember when [H] did a feature on a PC back in the late 90's or early 00's that was essentially a refrigerator cooling system mounted in the bottom of a PC case? It had good results, but the company appears to have...

    Memorable Overclocking-Friendly CPUs

    Oh yeah that also reminds me of guys coming up with 'lapping' techniques that would sometimes make the front page of [H]. Guys would strap sandpaper down to a glass table or a really flat piece of metal; and rub their metal CPU heatshield until it became super flat; so they could get better...

    Memorable Overclocking-Friendly CPUs

    I still remember overclocking a CPU recommended by Kyle (sold through a link provided by Kyle to "Accubyte" [online retailer] at the time)... Pentium 2 300, SL2W8 (with the off-to-the-side L2 cache chips). Reliable at 465 all day long on my original AOpen AX6BC. I still have it, and it...
