    Can't Access Server 2012 R2 within linux?

    BTW I had the same issue in reverse a year or so ago. I couldn't access my FreeNAS server from my Windows systems after they got an update. The update had turned off SMB1.0/CIFS in favor of SMB2.0. Reenabling it on my Windows boxes got it working again. Here's how to put it back on your...

    Can't Access Server 2012 R2 within linux?

    Check the server to see if SMB 1.0/CIFS is enabled. It's probably not turned on and most likely that's causing your issue.

    Astro Gaming A50 Wireless Headset & Base Station Review @ [H]

    I have to agree with you on this one Kyle. I've had my A50 for over a year myself and I've had the power on issue happen twice (most recently last weekend). One other oddball issue I've had is that sometimes you can't hear anything even though the base and the headphones are on. In cases like...

    NVIDIA Pulling Plug on GPP

    "A lot has been said recently about our GeForce Partner Program. The rumors, conjecture and mistruths go far beyond its intent. Rather than battling misinformation, we have decided to cancel the program." Once you learn to speak "Corporate" you realize that this doesn't mean what it seems...

    Rhode Island Also Wants to Tax Your Pr0n

    Just wanna point out the not-so-obvious joke. Around these parts (Southern New England/MA/RI), "Cranston" is slang for "taking a crap, dropping a deuce, etc.". One of the senators trying to push this through is from Cranston. Cranston is a you-know-what-hole too. Coincidence? :D Nothing...

    Cut in Line - There's an App for Dunkin' Dat

    I can't figure out if DD corporate picked that location because it gets a lot of traffic, because it gets next to no traffic, or because it's the only one in Quincy that has a drive-thru. :/ I worked in Quincy for 15 years and IMO if they wanted to do a proper test they should have renovated...

    NVIDIA CEO: Moore’s Law Is Dead, GPUs Will Replace CPUs

    I may be wrong on this, but isn't the instruction set and backwards compatibility of i386/x64 what is holding it back?

    KIA Dealer Remotely Disables Car over $200 Fee

    Anyone wanna take a guess that they did a shit job removing the device afterwards too? If it were me in that situation I'd have removed the effing thing myself and left it on their doorstep as a "present".

    On the bright side, once you have the hardware audio mixer portion, you should be able to use the Discord app on your phone and use that to talk to your friends. :)

    1080ti Pre-order, Retail, and AIB availability watch

    Same thing applies to ZOTAC too in case anyone's wondering. Newegg's site says it's 2 years. You have to dig a little but on ZOTAC's site it clearly says: Graphics Cards Standard Warranty: 2 years Extended Warranty: +1 year Total...

    I think it's a mis-print on newegg's site. PNY's site says it has a 3 year warranty too. http://www.pny.com/geforce-gtx-1080ti?sku=VCGGTX1080T11PB-FE

    GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Discussion Thread

    I got the same thing when I bought mine from Newegg. AutoAdd is the nvidia game code that's automatically added to the order. Accounting wise you're still paying for the "free" game, what they're doing is deducting the cost of the game from the card and then "charge" you for the "free" gift...

    GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Discussion Thread

    If I had the option I would have paid for Saturday delivery. Unfortunately the best I could get was either 2 or 3 day. I ordered mine through Newegg and I probably didn't get that option because of the time I put the order in. :/

    1080ti Pre-order, Retail, and AIB availability watch

    I know the feeling. :D I didn't think I was going to get one today but I managed to grab a Gigabyte card on Newegg after seeing on here that they were available again. I didn't think I was going to get even that though; I put an EVGA card in my cart and got sniped before I could check out...

    SNES Preservation Project "Dead" after USPS Loses $10K of Cartridges

    USPS "insurance" is a joke. http://kutv.com/news/get-gephardt/usps-bizarre-reason-for-denying-insurance-claim The take-away is that if it's that expensive and important, DO NOT ship it USPS. Ship it UPS or FedEx instead. Yeah I've heard horror stories with these other carriers but I've heard...

    3D Print Your Own Intel Delid Tool for Skylake & Kaby Lake @ [H]

    Is that setup ESD safe? :D j/k Quick idea I had. Instead of using a hammer and a block of wood, use a tourniquet. Place a 2" strip of cloth along the moving axis of the delid tool and use something (a pencil, screwdriver, a butterknife, whatever) to twist the fabric so it squeezes the lid...

    Logitech G700S not working in windows 10

    Avoiding Logitech mice isn't going to do jack, the problem is with your system. Avoiding Logitech mice would be like avoiding a specific gas station because your engine had a bad fuel pump.

    Logitech G700S not working in windows 10

    Logitech G700S not working in windows 10

    Remove the devices inside Device Manager (right-click/uninstall), if it asks to uninstall drivers, uninstall the drivers. Reboot, and then let it redetect the devices again. Most likely you've got something else wrong with your system that's causing this. Logitech doesn't supply drivers for...

    SideArmD SA4 case, CNC + AIO + 9.35L

    When you explain it this way, I think the card may actually fit. If it's just a question of relocating or modding the AC plug I could even do that on my own. Sweet!! An alternative to the standard C14 receptacle could be to use a "Mickey Mouse Ears" (C5) cord and receptacle to save space...

    SideArmD SA4 case, CNC + AIO + 9.35L

    Overall I really like it! My main concern with it, which happens to be the same one behind the reason why I didn't buy an NCASE, is the max video card size supported. Ironically this go around it's not the max length of the card that's the issue, it's the max height (I'm using an Asus Strix...

    Razer ... never again

    Oh yeah, in regards to it being wireless (the G602), it's been great! To me I can't tell the difference between this wireless mouse and a wired mouse in terms of tracking and button response, the G602 feeling like it's a wired mouse to me.

    Razer ... never again

    I like my G602 a lot but it could be better. When I first bought it I removed the teflon feet it came with and replaced it with some mouse skates (I forgot the exact brand). I also put some Sugru on it to make a pinkie finger and thumb rest on it; the pinkie rest so my finger would stop...

    Razer ... never again

    I've been partial to Logitech mice and trackballs for a while. I used a R.A.T. 7 mouse for a very long time and although I liked it a lot, the build quality left a lot to be desired (it fell apart within a year). I used to use a Logitech Trackman Marble (old 3 button PS/2 version) to game with...

    RIP Newegg, you weren't good lately anyway

    I can't complain about Newegg since they've always been good to me. Lately I've been buying most of my computer parts from Microcenter in Cambridge, MA. though. I did buy a cable from Newegg earlier this month just because I didn't feel like driving into Boston to get it and I didn't need it...

    Apple Defends Decision To Remove 3.5mm Headphone Jack, Cites “Courage”
