    Text Me? Ping Me? Communications Overload In The Digital Age

    It's just going to get worse with the industry push for 'wearables' and ubiquitous computing. We need smarter devices that know enough not to interrupt us for trivial matters. Right now you have to enforce your own preferences, but in the future maybe they can leverage some AI to automate it more.

    Adobe Sees Record Revenue After Switch To Cloud Subscriptions

    It gets a thumbs up from me so far. I'm doing the $20/mo student plan for the whole Creative Cloud Suite. Mainly using LightRoom and Premiere at this point, but plan to dive into Photoshop soon. I've been a GIMP user for years, but it looks like I finally have a good reason to transition over.

    Learning Scala

    Good suggestions. Programing texts can usually only be so engaging. I have two books, 'Programming in Scala' and 'Scala for the Impatient'. Both good books, especially the second one if you are coming from a Java background and just want to get up to speed quickly. Bot-war sounds like more fun...

    Broadwell-E debut at Computex (June, 2016)?

    Hmmm sitting here with X79 & 3930K (6 core) @ 4.5Ghz. Broadwell-E is tempting but I agree a X99 refresh may be worth waiting for. Anyone else on Sandy Bridge-E and considering it?

    Star Wars Battlefront PC $34.99

    Tried it. Returned it. Used the EA Origin 'Great Game Guarantee'. Not a terrible game, but just feels very incomplete even at this price --- will wait for the Premium Edition with full DLC.

    Silicon Valley Is Ruthless To Old People

    Project Fi - Excellent Service

    My brother just received a Nexus 6P and activated on Google Fi in Chicago. Even came with a free little lego set. I was keen to get some feedback from him since I am considering it myself.... so far he said clear reliable service. He used it on his private Wifi, public Wifi, and cell signal...

    What tablet(s) are my fellow [H]ard members rocking with?

    Note4 w/ 128GB SD Card. One of the best phones I've ever owned. Brilliant screen, and snappy. I like the S-Pen improvements of the Note5, but didn't want to surrender the SD card slot and removable battery. I hope they bring these back for a Note6.... I have the IPad 4 (Retina) with Logitech...

    Former Google VP: Machines Emotionally Intelligent In 2016

    For those interested in this topic, I can recommend the book 'The Singularity Is Near' by Ray Kurzweil. Kurzweil is a self-proclaimed futurist of some note, and I believe in the past few years he recently joined Google. Once we reach the point where machines genuinely become self-aware and able...

    Which Programing to learn?

    I'll echo others in saying HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. JavaScript is also becoming prevalent in the server-side thanks to things like Node.JS, which is something you want to look into. If you're looking for a 'batteries included' web stack, Ruby On Rails (RoR) is def. worth a look thanks to a...

    Corsair Air 540 + x3 Cougar Fans $89.99 AR

    You're right, that is a nice Thermaltake case... the front grill reminds me a bit of the old MacPro towers. I wish I had another build to do so I could order it, but I already have a Thermaltake Armor case as my traditional tall tower so I thought I would mix it up a bit with this Corsair 540...

    Twin Xeon 5600 enthusiast motherboards?

    The SR-2 is the best option for dual Xeon 5600 OCing, but they can be fairly pricey. If you just want to get up & running + with a a mild OC maybe checkout the SuperMicro X8DTI: http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/QPI/5500/X8DTi.cfm

    Corsair Air 540 + x3 Cougar Fans $89.99 AR

    Nice find, just picked one up. Note to others though ... the site lists $40 in rebates total, but the PDF rebate forms (2 -- one for case, one for fans) list the rebate in the form of two $10 prepaid cards... Still a good deal though, I used the $15 off coupon for 'new customers' to help...

    E8400 vs Q9650 for gaming

    This ^^^^ If you are dead set on socket 77X, do the 771 to 775 mod. Of course you need to do your due diligence and ensure your motherboard / chipset are GTG for this, but provided they are it's your cheapest bet. I had a Q9300. Sold it for $70 on Ebay and got a Xeon X5460 for $50. I have...

If I go into my order history on Amazon's website this is still what is listed, HOWEVER, as of this morning the photo in 'order history' has changed to that of a Gigabyte H61 motherboard, and if I...
