If you just double the wait time between pwd tries (or even go more aggressive with t^n increased delays) you eliminate this "instant cracking" idea. The trouble is going to be blockchain because anyone is free to pound away at decrypting them.

FPS campaigns have sucked for years now which is why I no longer buy or play most of them. Over fifty with work, family, volunteer work, etc. means when I have time to game I don't want to deal with 12 year olds practicing their temper tantrums. I'll got SP 90% of the time so the modern FPS with...

I've switched to running W10 on my iMac Pro and ponied up cash for new software. Apple only has UNIX and iMessage now and I can run Linux in Windows or as another bootcamp option. Just glad I'm switching before they updated macos to use that T2 chip to block bootcamp entirely. Pretty sure...

10.13.4 also blocks eGPU over TB1/TB2 as well as all Nvidia GPUs. Intentionally. As in they worked before, no longer do and the kernel panics point to a new OS component called GPUwrangler.

The problem you cite affected laptops. I had zero issues getting bootcamp running with both AMD and Nvidia drivers simultaneously with apps correctly identifying which GPU they were using. But the truth is this is Apple so my bad as they're on board with knowing more about my needs than I do.

I realize HardOCP has few macos members, but figured this warning is still worth posting: Macos 10.13.4 breaks Nvidia eGPUs. More than 80% of reported macos eGPU builds on egpu.io are dorked by upgrading from the perfectly functional 10.13.3 to 10.13.4. AMD builds are unaffected. Boo hiss...

Is this a change since 10.13.3? Or does it only work with external displays connected to the egpu? I'm reluctant to update to 10.13.4 for fear it breaks something.

Fortunately Nvidia releases macos drivers in spite of Apple and bootcamp is just windows, though there are some tricks to getting the latest Apple hardware to boot from an external drive.

I set up an iMac Pro + Akitio Node Pro + 1080ti + BenQ 32" monitor. Macos performance is decent enough with nvidia's web drivers, but it's way better booting to Windows 10 where it doesn't correctly ID the 1080ti over TB3 so things like Oculus tell you your system can't hang, but if course it...

Those who fail to innovate often litigate.

LG V30 > Pixel 2 XL strictly because of headphone jack. Just return it for another if you get one with a splotchy screen.

This is so cool! Now I can just add the websites I want and not have to worry about searching for new ones. Plus, my ISP can make kick-backs from the sites it does offer so it can get paid two ways for the same thing.

So you cannot take laptops in carry-on bags and now you can't check them either. Queue up laptop kiosks and vending machines in baggage claim.

My 6S+ is fine within apps in iOS 11 but laggy as hell switching between apps and even swiping between home screen pages. I'll try a factory reset and wipe when time allows but after that I'll go LG V30 or Pixel 2XL.

FCC looks stupid yet again.

People thought the original Star Trek was nuts for having a black female officer and a communist and Asian as well. I guess Roddenberry was always a SJW. In fact, the entirety of the Star Trek universe is PC/SJW complete with socialism (free healthcare, no money, etc). If you don't like this...

I thought it was pretty good. I remember how sucky the first TNG episodes were and this was better.

Would vastly prefer to be able to stick with Android for my phones but every time I get things set up for sms on desktop and messaging that'll work well with iOS and Android friends it inevitably breaks because of a new chrome version, os patch or something. Meanwhile the bloated ecosystem of...

Good move. Kudos to Valve. This actually reduces effort as I won't have to scour reviews to detect review bombing.

The new iPhones are meh, but the number of posters in this thread who've managed not to grasp the fact that this 'Apple fail' applies to Samsung, Google, HTC, Lenovo, Motorola, LG and literally every other maker is simply fascinating. There is currently no phone that supports T-Mobile's new...

Too bad Microcenter is price gauging Vega at +$100-200.

While there are a few retailers who accept Bitcoin, it's a tiny fraction of Bitcoin's usage. No other coin is accepted by retailers. So cutting out retail does nothing, especially as all the major banks and investment firms are throwing into blockchains with gusto.

There is no single ASIC miner that generates that kind of return and a good ASIC miner is at least $2k but you'll need to wait 3-4 months for delivery. You could buy one on eBay for immediate delivery but that'll set you back about $8k.

I owned both a Miata and a 370z Roadster over the years and the Miata was arguably more fun to drive in spite of the Zs higher power and torque.

If you have a local Microcenter buy it there since they price gouge the least. Otherwise set up NowInStock alerts and buy online when a fair price comes in stock.

Linux FTW. *IF* they're both going to cost $400 it's clearly a no-brainer, but running 13x300W means 32.5 amps so it isn't going to fly on any single household breaker (20 A). Not to mention your A/C bill going through the roof as all that Radeon excess heat (nearly 4 kW) are dumped into one's...

It's simple to get 29 MH/s running a 1070@95W so managing 3x that for 3x the power isn't terribly remarkable. Since there are motherboards that let you run 13 GPUs at a time the 1070 will definitely be cheaper than RX Vega for the same hashrate.

If they mine like Vega FX they'll be available for gamers. Way too inefficient (>300W for 33 MH/s Eth vs. 95W & 29 MH/s for GTX 1070). [Edit: gigaxtreme1 beat me to this point]

Ironically it's Linux of late that is the most stable...shame it isn't up to being a consumer or gaming OS (yet).

The corporate vision (supported by most governments) for the future of the internet will make web sites into for pay channels with a token "public access" channel to claim net neutrality. Time to get serious about an alterNET outside the control of corporations and the governments they own.

There was an article last week on how virtually all hedge funds underperform the index funds. LOL.

My Enermax MAXREVO 1350 PSU has been powering my H2O rig since December 2011. In that time it's seen 2x6970s, 2xGTX580s and is now 2xGTX 680s. It remains whisper quiet even as one of my Gentle Typhoons is starting to chirp. Great PSU.

Really, really stupid article. Unless you're going to put a high-powered terahertz emitter on a phone it can only pick up something that is emitting. Basically it will be worse than infrared imaging (longer wavelength) and we all know IR lets you "see through wall" so darned well. Oh, yeah and...

"if you build a better mousetrap, the world will beat a path to the one better marketed."

I remember one Siri commercial with Santa Claus in it...they better not have been making that shit up!

HAF 932 has a fillport hole...

Just days after Bloomberg gets blasted for getting PC gaming wrong, the mighty enthusiast PC gamers decide that thousands of PhDs certainly know less than they do. Sweet irony.

I remember when Corsair did only RAM and one of their employees, after a support phone call from me, literally hand picked some sticks for my successful drive to break 10k in 3dmark with a heavily-overclocked Athlon 1800, modded Radeon 8500 and, of course, overclocked and over-volted Corsair...

The first non-console-port-mayhem-shooter with all sorts off GPU options (including SGSSAA built-in!), and you say it's dated?

Every PC Gamer should buy SS:3. Why? This: http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2556/sam32011112220244756.jpg
