I work from home. This is my home Internet speed.

I always read the supported RAM documentation from the motherboard manufacturer who's board I am using. Once I have access to that I then choose what I feel will be best for my system. After doing some research I found that double sided or dual rank RAM is slightly faster than single sided RAM...

I use the free version of CCleaner. If it hits the fan hard or my PC is slow I always reach for TronScript.

I had an odd instance where that happened to me. I took a look at event logs and they were not very informative for due to massive noise on the Internet. Doing a simple reboot solved the problem. I would test the following: 1) Run Explorer on the command line. 2) Download and run smarmontools...

The only problem I have with AIO cooling is that the motor dies around the two year mark regardless of which manufacturer I choose. When it dies I have to replace it and I really don't want to replace any part that often. I have since moved to a new system and now use a Noctua cooler. I swapped...

I have Quake II from GoG. The RTX mod runs pretty good on with my RTX 2080 Ti and AMD Threadripper 2950x.

I often feel the same way.

That is always my last step. My second to last step is to back everything up and create a restore point. You may need to ensure that PXE boot support is enabled in UEFI and that your USB-C adapter also supports PXE. Dell has an article on this.

Still relevant.

The PC version came out in 1999 and has multiple tracks to race. Your pod can be destroyed. The arcade version came out in 2000, has only four tracks to race, and your pod is indestructible. I've played them both. The only real difference is that you can upgrade your pod on the PC.

When I worked at RealNetworks they took Halloween very seriously. Every floor was given a budget to decorate and every floor had a committee that you could volunteer for that decided on their own theme. When I started in 2008 one of the floors had a Tokyo disaster theme. They had a conference...

I've been in the streaming media industry for eleven years and cut my teeth on the RTSP protocol when I worked at RealNetworks [BUFFERING!!!]. I became their onsite encoding expert after I was tasked with finding an encoder that didn't create A/V drift like their former Helix Producer product...

I store my files on a separate FreeNAS box and move them there via WinSCP. Yes, I do have a SMB share but it is read only (different permissions between the WinSCP user and my Windows user) to make it tough for people to screw with. The ZFS file system that is the default for FreeNAS rocks my...
