Thanks! I hate clickbait. It wasn't so hard to put the info into the leading sentence. Instead of 'Click on me for a longass video!!!'

You missed the part where they mentioned it's 27% more magical than an iPhone?

And this is definitely the first time that [H]ard OCP has EVER had an article that wasn't a radically new and revolutionary design change. ; p BTW link me to a phone or actually ANY hardware that is radically new and revolutionary and not a minor incremental update. Tic-Toc The Segway...

I had a 2 and 4. Have the 8 now. It's a lot faster than the 4. Battery is a non-issue, works great. Touchwiz works great. I got into Android with the very first G2, spent lots of time rooting and Roming, now I use my phone for work and to arrange dates with members of the opposite sex...

Except Metallica sounds good and Bono is a number 2. As in a posing poop that always wears sunglasses because he thinks it makes him cool and less poop-like. Tell me, where exactly is it that the 'streets have no name'? no place I've ever been. bullshit lyrics I've had tickets for three...

I'll go out on a limb and say that perhaps If it's not personally-identifiable it can't hurt you? Just maybe? :lol: And I'll go a little further and say that it's accepted, say in scientific and medical papers, that it's legit to use data that came from subjects with personal-identifiers...

Part of the problem is that the environment is changing. For a disconnected system, sure you could use Windows 7 forever and be happy. Nothing's changing, you can write your memoirs or run your peripherals indefinitely in your bunker. But most people are connected to the internet, and there's...

It seems it's something that people who like to argue throw around. I'm not interested in arguing, just interested in some proof, which should be in abundance, but links to damages are sadly lacking ITT. IANAL or trying to sue Microsoft so arcane self-referential legalese goes way over my...

You like to argue or something. I'm not sure what a straw man is. Or an absurdo inquisition or whatever. I started off a couple pages ago asking if this was a real problem, if anyone had a link to anyone getting hurt by this telemetry. I don't want to argue about how many people use Windows...

A thread about Microsoft's telemetry is the wrong place to discuss real-world implications. OK. Sorry to have offended you by discussing the wrong thing. An analogy is synthetic benchmarks vs. real-world game testing. To me the synthetic benchmark in this case is how many addresses does a...

I did a Google search, and GoSquared says Windows 10 is 54% of total windows traffic. https://www.gosquared.com/global/windows/10/#launch Don't have an exact number, but the install base is close to one billion. Global market shares of desktop OS's...

The longer this thread continues without anyone providing evidence that anyone has ever been hurt by telemetry, the more and more comfortable I am that Windows 10 is Awesome Sauce. I mean surely there is at least one actual link to 'I used Windows 10 and five Nigerian princes accessed my...

I use my computer as a tool for work and play now. I used to worry about how it did that. I'd root and swap kernels and compile. Used arcane burning tools to even make a disk to install NT5/win2k back in 99. Got over that. Now I want my computer to work and run the software I want it to...

I eagerly await and install each and every patch Microsoft sees fit to bequeath me. I for one welcome our Corporate Computer Overlords. I'll stop now. :LOL:

No actual report of anyone ever being hurt. Gotcha! :lol: BTW, I'm thrilled at being in the same thread as someone so intelligent as yourself! I am truly humbled.

Yeah, um, that's a dutch legal opinion, and not a report of someone suffering damages. I know where you're coming from, but not being a snowflake, my feewings aren't hurted by big bad Microsoft$ telemetry. But I totally get where you're coming from. Anyone have a link to real-world...

Link to report of anyone anywhere EVER suffering detrimental effects at the hands of Microsoft's nefarious 'OMG it's spying on me' telemetry? Thanks! It's been three years now (Windows 10), and I'm probably just clueless, but I've never had a problem or heard of an actual problem. Been on NT...

Ya, multirotor racing has been a multimillion dollar sport for a number of years and it's already been hammered out what works to win and what doesn't. Tri-rotors basically suck because they need moving parts for the tailrotor that can break or go out of alignment. X-4 Quadrotors with planar...

I agree, Love my pro 2!

Thank you! Thank you cyclone3d! That link got me from 3.8 to 4.62 !!!! So much arcane power setting. Painless - haven't even tweaked yet!

OK. Any tips on how to Overclock this thing? I've tried before a few hours and never could understand a simple process.

Hey thanks! Maybe there's hope. I used to love over-clocking but with this board, I ran out of time trying to learn how to do it. So it's only running at 3.6. I have an Asetek water-cooler with an external radiator on it. X79 just kind of mystified me. SiSoftware Sandra ID Host Name ...

I play some games, just put in a GTX1060 in my old machine. It's a quad-core i7-3820 or something like that. Is this the time to buy a new processor and mobo? I heard something new's coming down the pike of course. Any recommendations? I have a fast but small SSD for my OS now, and I'd...

Reminded me of the intro to Quake 3 Arena, where Sarge was getting rushed by the horde and dropped his cigar and everything went into slomo and he proceeded to kick much ass.

I have looked and looked for the research on which type of phone owners are more likely to be gay, but I can't find it. Possible that it hasn't been done yet, so if anyone needs a research topic subject there you go. What percentage of iPhone owners are gay vs. non-iPhone owners, or...

It's sweet, they sure know how to push my buttons. :p

http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/motherboards/2010/07/19/asus-rampage-3-gene-motherboard-review/1 Looks pretty darn good. Very fast.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131658 $229 Looks very promising. ;)

http://www.trustedreviews.com/motherboards/review/2010/05/28/Asus-Rampage-III-Gene--Crosshair-IV-Extreme--Ares-Sneak-Peek/p4 Thank you, this is what I was looking forward. Still don't know ETA.

Thinking about building a SFF system that can keep up with some gaming. I want to use a single video card, but would like some of the newer things like USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gb/sec. I'd rather have i7 socket 1366, but maybe 1156 will do. Doesn't seem like a lot of options now with USB3.0...

Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers. There is a difference between finding what is lost and stealing what is not. Evil corporations hire jack-booted thugs. Police state.

Priceless.

How the heck did I quote Steve 3 minutes before he posted? Where's the 'Edit' button?

Lazy eye? Like when I'm talking to someone and one of their eyes is pointing off in the wrong direction? And it's really uncomfortable because I don't know where to look? Sorry man. I think both of your eyes need to point in the same direction for 3D to work. I mean really sorry. Where...

Are you saying it's not getting better? Or it is getting better? I don't quite get you. Personally I think it is getting better. And I'm not saying it's new. I liked a 'long' time ago. 'long' being relative of course. It's not new. There were stereoscopic viewing machines in the 1800's...

Avatar was really good in 3D. I saw it twice with the glasses. I wouldn't have even seen it in the theater if it wasn't in 3D. As far as Siskel and Ebert's opinion. Power to those old dead dated dinosaurs. They can watch Gone with the Wind and Casablanca in 2D for all I care. I had a...

I never use AA from my graphics card. I guess I use my brain for smoothing, cuz it's a lot more efficient than the graphics hardware. I'm just saying that I set my card to the highest resolution that my screen can produce, then I 'filter' out the jaggies through my visual cortex. So, no...

New Egg insisted that they return the cheese-proc in exchange for a $288 silicon processor. I would have been like No, you give me $5000 and a 975 EE. They would have done it. A lot of fanbois and shills are trying to minimize New Egg's responsibility. They have openly admitted to...

I have two computers that I've been trying to log into Hard Forum with. One, no problem. The other one will never accept my password. Changed password, same issue. Both running Windows 7 64bit.

Well, maybe the whole thing was just a big 'accident' or 'coincidence' or that parts of it were. Someone could have set up NewEgg and or IPEX. Anyone from a disgruntled employee to an Intel corporate agent trying to put a stop to what they perceive as non authorized activity. It could have...
