    Fry's Electronics permanently closing Feb 24, 2021

    And one day microcenter will be gone to replaced by "nanocenter". As they say...the king is dead, long live the king.

    NVIDIA Introduces “Huang’s Law” to Replace the now Defunct Moore’s Law

    I thought Huang's law was "charge twice as much every 2 years".

    When should you buy another projector bulb ?

    My $0.02 is look at your bulb usage. If it looks like your bulb is going to go 5+ years...then just don't buy one IMO. Better chance you will have access to a better PJ in that timeframe and would be better off just buying a new PJ. However, if it looks like you will burn it out in...

    Question

    No. Not in your case. A projector operating @ 75" is a poor choice since you need to deal with other list of issues (light control, ceiling mounting, additional audio, etc). If you were talking about a wall that could handle 100"+ screen and could be light controlled, etc..that is another...

    Capcom hit by ransomware attack, is reportedly being extorted for $11 million

    Considering what happened to Garmin...I am not surprised this happened again. Considering when a warning shot like that gets fired, I thought most bigger entitles would have gotten their crap together but said "nay". Long live greed.

    If we would stop watching porn, we could go back to 3g

    How Much Voltage is Too Much Voltage?

    Call your local utility. Sometimes loads change and voltages can shift and they need to re-balance. Not a big deal.

    FF VII: Remake. New news/teaser trailer

    I did a play through of the original 7 just a month ago...and yes, it was that linear; midgard was always on rails IMO...and still is. As for textures...I think this might have been the price for a perfectly buttery smooth game the whole time IMO while on ancient equipment. I never saw a FPS...

    Gamestop won't close it's doors

    Between the people who don't care if people die because it might inconvenience their lives (what you are indicating) and the people who think the world is ending...somewhere, in there, is the truth. BTW..coronavirus (COVID-19) is a variant of SARS. It is a nasty little bugger (much worse than...

    Just got my first projector - Is this decent?

    This really needs to be said about projectors...if you are happy with it then it is a good purchase. The moment you ask for an opinion on something you bought you are asking to seed doubt in your mind which will ruin the experience. Every time I buy a new projector (4 so far in my life) I...

    Buy 2080Ti now, or wait for holidays?

    nVidia right now is in the drivers seat. However I do no think they are sitting idle. I would not be surprised if there is not significant ray tracing efforts going on. While their first debut was not all unicorn and rainbows...it was not something that made me say "well, that is dumb". I...

    Astrophysicist Says He Knows How to Build a Time Machine

    The thing is...if he could even pull off a 100 ms, that would be enough to be the richest person in the world in the span of a few days via the stock markets.

    Thurrott: Minecraft Is Getting a Whole New Look With Ray Tracing Support

    Yes and no....it might be a "long game" kind of thing. Right now the DEV's have gotten really good and non RTX stuff with a series of very clever substitutes. The gap between an RTX card that can surpass that at the same price point just isn't reasonable at this point. Hell...doom did...

    Scientists develop device to detect bacteria in minutes, not days

    I amazed her that the people against this don't realize that electron microscopes for this level of testing are benchtop sized. This is not DOA....far from it.
