Doubtful if the outside layer is still regular glass. We will have to see the details of its formulation to know for sure.

They are one step closer to becoming the ACME Company from the Road Runner cartoons!

Got the Nexus 6 when it was $300 off and have used it with Project Fi for the past couple months. It has been great to compare it directly with my Verizon phone side by side to really see which service worked in the places I actually go. I used almost a gig of data just doing speed tests the...

Is that smudge just below the moon a couple of steam jets coming from the moon or just an artifact?

Been using Project Fi with a Nexus 6 for the past few weeks while I still have a Verizon account with LG G3. Been taking both around to the places I go to see which works best. Considering how many places Verizon just does not work and the ever increasing cost, I will be leaving Verizon once my...

Reminds me of the polling numbers of the Republican candidates for US President 2016. ;)

Mapping companies are worth huge $s right now. I strongly suggest reading recent financial news on this topic if you are interested. We are talking billions of dollars with world conglomerates and consortium of businesses vying for the few available players. Going about this one your own is not...

With all the recent activity about shooting down drones, what is the charge if someone shoots down a police drone? Property destruction or is it more like an attack on a police dog?

While his statement may be callous, the woman in question had the application set in a way to allow everyone to send to her which is not the default setting. Therefore, she literally was "asking for it". I strongly urge everyone to read this recent The Atlantic article on the coddling of the...

I just wait for game of the year editions to be released before purchasing. That way, I know the game has survived and has been patched well. I do buy early for multiplayer centric titles but at my age, I'm not gaming on PC enough to care anymore.

Sorry if this has already been posted, but if she needs to be on-call 24x7 but wants to avoid the GPS element, then forwarding the calls to her private cell would solve this issue.

I'd hope that Lemonade Stand would make the list eventually.

Google + wasn't even on the list! There was only one reference to it and that was to post the article on one's Google + account. :D:p

From URL https://github.com/Pr0x13/iDict, there are these two un-timestamped entries... -=Reports coming in that Server is now Patched with Rate Limiter=- -=Server Fully Patched, Discontinue use if you don't want to lock your account!!=- YMMV with this.

I'll probably upgrade to 10 when it comes out as I need to be conversant in all Windows operating systems. For thinking Win 8 is worthless, try doing a drive encryption on a modern laptop with a SSD that has eDrive support on Windows 8 and 7. I agree the pushy Metro UI is a pain, but a quick...

With government agencies selling Bitcoin, does that mean the government is tacitly admitting that Bitcoin is legitimate?

So will all Win XP machines forever be vulnerable to this exploit? Would seem so as MS stated they will not patch it unless a company has paid for an extended service contract.

Good prices and especially if you have no tax from NewEgg purchases. The EVO 1TB drive had sold for as little as $379.99 on Sept. 25th at Amazon so there is a chance for better prices. However, if one needs a drive now, these prices are competitive right now.

Sorry if off topic but can the overclocking utility be used with other maker's cards? MSI tool will not go to 120% power and I would like to use that with my Gigabyte GTX 970.

Not aimed at you, GoodBoy but at Microsoft themselves. (Can't edit my posts)

So if someone cannot start their computer, all they need to do is install an update ... to a computer that won't start? :p Gotta love that answer. Marie Antoinette would be proud of such a daft answer.

I assume this is to test what it would be like to control a rover from an orbiting command module. Could be tricky when the commander is in orbit!

My wife can read 20 books in a month ... (I KNOW!) .. so this did initially sound amazing but she has essentially read what they have or has no desire to read like children's books. Not too sure who the target audience is here.

There are some HDMI standards to be aware of. HDMI versions have added features like ethernet and support for 3D and 4K television signals. HDMI is a digital signal so going for a thick gauge is not important here. For those running long lengths or need thin cables, look into REDMERE...

I think the gate the poster was referring to was Bill Gates being associated with MS and MS puts out XBone.;)

Ahh the lengths techies will go to get a woman to take her shirt off! :rolleyes:

If a quieter card is worth the $150 difference for a user, that $150 would probably cover the cost of watercooling the R290x or R290. Looking forward to seeing a watercooled R290 compete to see if additional gains are made besides a much better sound profile.

That secure, encrypted email system was the envy of the world. Would be nice to have that in the arsenal when these companies go for the corporate market. This is where the next big surge in device sales will be. Also, there is a growing trend for BYOD (bring your own device) to the workplace...

Nice card but as is said in the article, the price is a major issue in the current landscape. The only category of customers mentioned is for those who price is no object. If that is the case, then why wouldn't these people then buy a few Titan cards for their rig? So, I see this as wonderful...

Considering the Nokia/Microsoft connection with respect to Windows 8 phone, this could be interesting. Hard to worse than Ballmer at this point.

I'd bet that a year from now we will be discussing how the Oxford dictionary added the work "Twerk" or "Twerking". CHECK THAT ... it already happened this year. Man, Oxford sure is hip to the scene.:rolleyes:

One issue I've heard about but not personally experienced is the the Platinum series can have some problems with coil whine. I do know for a fact that the X-Series does not suffer from any coil whine which is important for those who value a quiet workspace.

TigerDirect has the XFX branded one for $670 after the $30 rebate. Includes the 8 game titles.

Oh let this Kickstarter thing die already. There is a reason these people could not get VC money.

FYI, no local content is sent to device. You merely tell the ChromeCast from your Android device what you want from the approved web sources and the device gets it from "the cloud". There is potential for maybe something like google drive or Dropbox connectivity, but I really wanted a system...

Microsoft's fatal flaw is what often hits publicly traded companies and that is meeting Wall Street's expectations. This translates directly into having to have a profitable product out the gate. There seems to be no way to be allowed to lose money for a couple of years while a product gets a...

PM sent.

I would be interested in this block if still available. Never did a transaction through the [H]ard Forum before but you can see my feedback on eBay. My username is jcollett.

Amazon can be weird with computer related stuff. Almost pulled the trigger a few times in the past on a video card, only to ultimately pass on it as ship time ranges often exceeded mail in rebate time windows! Wonder what is the true reason why something would be listed as 1 - 4 months...

I'm kind of surprised that no one noticed the video card has been volt modded, assuming that is the purpose of the taped on variable resistor. Would like to know how much voltage they needed for this OC on the video card.
