    Newzbin2 Shuts Down Operations

    So, what's the problem with Bitcoins (other than having to to physically go to a store to do a money gram)? Nzbrus seems pretty cool... I haven't seen anything else looking around that really compares to it (and is open). Newsleecher supersearch is pretty horrible for just trying to look...

    24" to 27" monitor & U2412M input question

    I've been looking at new monitors for a couple of days now. I've been looking in the 24" to 27" range. My big consideration is I work from home a lot with my work laptop sitting on my desk connected via VGA. So all day long I flip inputs from VGA to HDMI and back and forth. So I need...

    Win7 with multiple HDD's sluggish & external enclosures

    I've tried running for awhile with x4 HDD's and x1 SDD in my system: x1 128GB C300 Crucial SSD x2 1T WD Blacks x2 2T WD Blacks (mobo: Asus Sabertooth P67 rev1) With all those drives in I couldn't take the sluggish feel of the system. Mostly I'd notice it when I opened a drive. It felt...

    Where would I stand w/ x2 5850's right now?

    Yeah I was just thinking if a single 580gtx is the same as what I have now, a single card from the next series should be a good margin better than the crossfire I have now. I guess my goals right now would be to play Witcher 2 at very high detail and the same for the new Elder Scrolls when it...

    Asrock P67 Ex4 Colmaster 212+

    Off topic but I just got a Sabertooth P67 & 2600k. With all 4 slots filled with approved Corsair Dominator, I could not overclock at all. With 2x4GB worth of G.Skil Ripjaw it all opened up. 16GB is kind of nuts anyway unless you're doing something like folding or media encoding. I...

    Where would I stand w/ x2 5850's right now?

    For almost a year my free time was totally taken up and I think I only played a couple of PS3 games. I have all my home free time back now and a good list of PC games I'm going to start going to. I kept up with Steam over the last year and have a nice list of games I bought on sale and such...

    Should I go from an old 920 to a 2600K?

    I was always sad I couldn't do more than 3.2Ghz on this original 920. And, it feels crazy I'm on the same processor I was on over two years ago. Forgot to mention, I play as many games as I can. -1920x1080 -x2 ATI 5850's in Crossfire And, I work with video a lot (Premiere Pro and...

    Should I go from an old 920 to a 2600K?

    I've been reading all day trying to decide this. A couple of times a year I get the fever to upgrade. Got: i7 920 (like a week #1 original). It's got the BIOS processor patch from the first series with the bug and it never oc'd worth a toot. I have an HAF-922 case with good airflow...

    Menu navigation layout theory - single icon to multiple forms

    I have a web application where the main menu is graphic icon based and vertical. Part of the site is that a user can create 'items' of which there are 8 different item types. Each of the item times has it's own graphic icon, but listing them all all on the menu makes it too long and...

    Did the popularity of Ruby on Rails drop after 2007?

    Thanks, that totally makes sense. Rails 3.0 looks really interesting. So far, from Lynda.com I've gone through the Ruby Essential Training, and I'm in the middle of the RoR Essential Training with a RoR beyond the basics after that. I'm also going through the audio and video's here...

    Did the popularity of Ruby on Rails drop after 2007?

    My job has changed to full time Ruby on Rails developer. Mostly I've done web development in Coldfusion and a little PHP. Rails has been a shock so far (like, the whole concept of the controller possibly generating dozens of different pages dynamically and only using one single rhtml file)...

    eSATA Problem with Sleep

    I recently got an eSATA external drive. It's working perfectly. However, I put my computer to sleep a lot. With AHCI enabled, if my computer goes to sleep, 70% of the time when it wakes up, one of my internal drives will not wake up. I have to reboot to get that internal drive back. My...
