Indeed, I have a 16:10 because I hate the 16:9 ratio for computers.

What's the point? When I'm in front of my monitor I don't know its thickness, but I sure can notice I can't wall mount it because everything is in its base...

I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum and I'm all out of bubblegum!

I'm happy when I see Uber in trouble.

Back in the days when James Hyneman was still robot looking.

Ever wonder how would look a case with too much pressure in it, there it is! Looks like someone farted in an air tight case...

Weird space number for a drive, 314GB. In honor of PI day? :p

Hi, I've swap a few HDDs to a newer tower and now on one drive some video files are "empty", they are there, taking the space required to stock them but cannot be played. The files next to it are OK in the same folder (all files were written at the same time). I've never had such a problem, I...

I know Snef, its fun to see him in this list. But I'm really surprised to not see Yazi's Star Destroyer in the list. But I guess it isn't a case mod but a complete case creation... http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1879539&page=4
