    2 DSL lines causing login issues?

    We have 2 DSL lines here at work with a load balancer. On the [H] forums I'm frequently logged out (maybe every couple page clicks inside Genmay). Various 'Whats my IP' websites have reported 2 IP's, which represent our 2 DSL lines. I think webhosts are seeing traffic coming from 2 IP's and...

    Xbox 360 Prepaid Gold and Minor Account

    Hi guys, I'm new to setting up Xbox Live and thought it'd be a fairly straightforward process. I bought a prepaid $25 3-month gold membership for my gf's kid so he could play madden online but I think I fucked up. His account had his real birthdate, so it asked for a parental account to verify...

    Swype Beta

    Recently updated my T-mobile Vibrant to Passion V8 ICS. This ROM didn't include Swype so I was able to install Swype Beta. This new version is awesome IMO, it feels faster than the original and there feels to be an improvement in accuracy. Any other Swype Beta users out there? You can only...

Client has sbs 2008, a powerconnect 2816 switch, and wants to use RWW. client is scoping out the WRVS4400N found on the dell website. Newegg reviews aren't so hot.

    Ok guys, I'm running the official 2.1 from T-mobile, but I think I want to go to 2.2 since who knows when the fuck T-mobile will get around to it. We all know every other day there's a new ROM, but what's the most stable and feature complete? I did my own digging and it seems like Team Whisky...

    T-Mobile G2

    So it looks like the successor to the G1 is coming, the G2. I haven't found a release date just yet, but the fact that I just bought a Vibrant and the new G2 is going to have HSPA+ kinda ticks me off. I'm still within my 30 days, and 10% of me wants to return it and go back to my G1 until...

    What would/can you do to revolutionize the FPS genre?

    I been playing since I was a kid..grew up on the very first of the FPS games: Wolfenstein 3D, Blakestone, DOOM, ROTR, Quake, and so on. For each of the above, it seemed there was a logical progression of technology. Wolfenstein 3D = Arguably the first FPS Blakestone = Very generic shooter...

    Zune HD Annoyance

    I love my Zune HD about 95% of the time. If anyone could explain why something happens, I'll be your slave. For some reason, the Zune thinks that I am done listening to songs and will remove them without warning (ok it tells me, but thats it). For example: I did not remove ANY playlists...

    Breathing new life into my Asus G1Sn-A1

    I'm thinking of buying faster 3gb ram + 7200 RPM hd to get a little bit more juice out of it. I've had the laptop since 11/07 and love it to death. Originally, it came with 5cas DDR2 PC-5300 2gb ram + 160gb 5400 RPM hd. As of lastnight HD Tune shows my max read speed at ~40MB/sec. My...

    Gyroscopic Force Feedback for Game Controllers

    I had a thought the other day, "Is there such thing as a gyroscopic force feedback device?". What I mean aren't the ones already invented that use a gyroscope to measure tilt in the game pad like the six-axis or wii controller, but a device that could actually almost wrench the controller out of...

    The Pre-Order Scam

    I was watching TV lastnight and ads from EA kept coming TV telling you to pre-order a certain game. This had me thinking about why companies are pushing pre-orders lately (or maybe it is I noticing them more). My theory is that game companies allow you to purchase the game ahead of time...

    Why aren't there AI innocent people in FPS's?

    Can a Dell XPS 400 PSU support 8800 GTS 320mb?

    Does Firefox verify SSL certificates at loading?

    I need to set the system clock back a year for a certain program I use. Sometimes I forget to update the clock to 2007 before I browse the net.
