• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Unhappy With Facebook's Rules? Whip Out Yer Boobs!

    That would be better addressed as a reply to rgMekanic, who equated men wanting to show their junk ("chickenskin dufflebag") with women wanting to bare their breasts, a comparison I also take exception to.

    Unhappy With Facebook's Rules? Whip Out Yer Boobs!

    Is it okay for men to show their junk? No? Is it okay for women to show their junk? No? Then what the hell does that have to do with the lack of equality with how men and women's breasts are treated?

    You Can Now Mine Cryptocurrency to Bail People Out of Jail

    He said "[t]his is a generalization," but here you go, champ: If I expand my search to "traffic fine" and "traffic ticket," rather than just "parking fine" and "parking ticket," I get these: http://www.newser.com/story/235077/woman-says-she-was-jailed-for-weeks-just-for-being-poor.html...

    China Sees First Tesla Autopilot Crash

    I have not, but so far you've not shown relevance, have not addressed my points, or offered facts or solid reasoning to support your own positions. You've not even stated your own area of expertise, while calling into question my own. In short, you've done little more than pound on the table.

    China Sees First Tesla Autopilot Crash

    How is the owner's failure to read the manual the fault of the manufacturer? Failure to read the manual places the blame for any avoidable accidents or malfunctions squarely on the shoulders of the owners. Or are we to protect people from themselves and their own stupidity, impatience, and/or...

    China Sees First Tesla Autopilot Crash

    You're reading entirely too much into that definition. What do you think would happen to a Cessna 172 with an active autopilot, if another aircraft crossed its flight path at close range? Hint: most aircraft autopilots are even less "intelligent" than Tesla's.

    Cardinals Scout Sentenced To Prison For Hacking Astros

    Is that an indictment of the sentence he received-- which I believe is appropriate for the number of laws he broke-- or of the too-short sentences some violent criminals receive?

    Tech FAIL Product of the Day

    Urea might be a contributing factor, but I believe bacteria are the primary culprit. For myself, I shower daily and use antiperspirant, and I do not smell as a result. If I change from antiperspirant to deodorant, I begin to smell within two days, despite the daily showers. If it were just...

    Cops Say Crooks Are Winning The 'Cyber Arms Race'

    I think there are also conflicting governmental elements/organizations at play here. The dedicated cybersecurity/attack groups do pretty well-- Stuxnet, anyone?-- but those groups either don't want, or are not allowed, to disseminate what they know to the rest of the government and/or private...

    World's Best Automatic Breakfast Maker

    Sometimes eggs have a small crack, which causes egg-whites to be pushed out of the egg during boiling.

    Homebuilt 200W Laser Bazooka!

    It's called "collimation." Contrary to popular belief, 'super-highly parallel light' (itty-bitty spot) is not a requirement for lasers, although the design of most lasers is such that the beam is narrow. Narrow, but not perfectly parallel. What starts as a "small dot" eventually expands to a...

    A Lot Of What Apple Does Is 'User-Hostile And Stupid'

    Who said one precluded the other? People are stupid. Personally, I've never considered Apple-- the company-- to be Communist lefty hippies. Many of their users, on the other hand...
