    Will there ever be a need for more than 64bit computing?

    We're already having 128-bit instructions - the PowerPC vector processing instructions were the first I know of, SSE (SSE4 I think) are the second instructions that can process 128 bits of data in one go. So, instructions for working with 128-bits data are already here, and I'd say...

    hdd image backup

    You might install your operating system on a smaller partition, and then change in registry so that all users' documents and settings are on a second partition. Also, instruct Windows to install by default programs in d:\program files. Move the virtual memory on the second partition, and maybe...

    Delete

    You just need to change the ID the drive reports to Windows, and geometry information, and create a big partition on it. As long as you don't try to write to that area of the partition, it all works just fine

    So did Vista negate the usefulness of soundcards?

    The preference for old tubes today is based on the way the sound is distorted. Tubes don't produce better sound than current silicon-based amplifiers - but old tubes sound better for some (new tubes are much more linear than the old ones, and some of that distortion is reduced) Setting the...

    Issues with Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H

    One more strange thing - the new installation of Windows XP SP2 (with slipstreamed security updates) won't print test pages - shits itself with DEP protection error in Windows Explorer. The printer prints just fine (it's an Canon LBP 1120 on USB connection)

    Issues with Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H

    I've bought a Gigabyte mainboard (model GA-MA69GM-S2H) with AMD X2 4400+ and 2GB of DDR2 RAM (Kingmax 800MHz). The board has some problems: 1. It can ONLY detect the IDE drives when the LG DVDRW is master and the Seagate 250GB IDE is slave (or only drives), when the hard drive is master...

    Nvidia feels small compared to Intel/AMD

    AMD outsourced the building of video chipsets (just like ATI did before the acquisition, and just like NVidia does now). But there was a rumour AMD would outsource some of its processor production to outside fabs. AMD is NOT in a position to build video chipsets in its fabs - those are...

    AA rechargeable batteries, battery life

    I have a Canon A430 - and can fill a 128MB card with 1600x1200 pictures using rechargable 1700mAh rechargeable batteries. I think (with freshly loaded batteries) it can fill the card shooting every picture with flash. Good for about 150+ pictures

    What's the point of 1333 fsb?

    Also, it fits better with the 667MHz DDR2 RAM (fewer wait states). Anyway, Intel has this idea of introducing faster FSBs on desktop components, and then migrating them on server components (the later ones having a much tougher certification testing). Is the 1333FSB better for current quad...

    Intel Quad VS AMD Phenom

    Until now, AMD says its processors are faster clock for clock than Intel's. This is only a rumor - until now, there are no hard results to make a comparison. Judging by recent history, AMD is not where he says it is, and unfortunately, even with a better processor AMD is forced to wage a price...

    A new, more efficient engine design...for people who like big engines!

    All the similar tanks have engines at the 1000 horse power area - but Abrams (the M1A1 and M1A2 especially) are heavier. Power/weight ratio is 20HP/metric ton for the 1000HP T90 and 22 for the 68 metric tons M1A2)

    A new, more efficient engine design...for people who like big engines!

    They have them on tanks, for two reasons: they have high power and lower weight than diesels (we are talking about V12 diesels here, bigger than anything you could find on a road-worthy truck). The other reason: they can use any kind of fuel (lower than gasoline) with equal efficiency. Some...

    About energy supplies and transportation...

    Good point you are rising here. Isn't USA the country with the biggest deficit? Is USA able to buy oil for any other currency except US dollars? I hope the US dollar remains strong - but it is just a hope, sooner or later another fall in the value of dollar is probable

    About energy supplies and transportation...

    Much more scary would be the price increases for fuel - when a 5% reduction in global production influences the price a fair bit, a 25% would be catastrophic with regards to price

    About energy supplies and transportation...

    Converting diesel engines to biodiesel is somewhat easy and not very expensive - even with a big part of the fuels production gone, one could convert tens of thousands of trucks to bio diesel in the 80 days until national stockpile is gone (sunflower oil might be the most efficient). Using...

    eBay power seller goes out with a bang

    I am very sad... Do you know his nick, dorumotorul... Doru is a romanian name (not very much used, but anyway)... the "motorul" would be "the engine" or "the motor" (motor would be something self-operating, like steam engine, gasoline/diesel engine, electric motor) :(

    Working in my office is a shocking experience

    Do you have a seat cover on driver's seat, different than the rest? This could create static electricity... friction with the stick shifter, the wheel? As for the original poster, the grounding wrist strap could be one solution. Does your display (the face of the CRT) is getting...

    Another addicting flash game...

    You can leave leaf towers non adjacent with the first up-going stretch of way - they will still hit the dots entering the map. But they still don't have the range to hit the stretch you pointed (but they only lack some range).

    Went to level 73 with water towers - eight of them, covering the entire map. Seems like plant towers are better overall

    I've tried with water towers - one had a not so good position, and I've only reached level 71. There are plenty of positions that cover the entire map

    Fire towers really really lack range A water tower well installed will cover all the map. I assume all the water towers you could build up to lvl 70 or so will cover the entire map However, plant towers have quite a bit better damage, and can cover most of the map too

    Level 76 - with tree towers that covers the dots from their entry (and one ice tower). One should place the towers as to cover as much as possible from the dots' trajectory

    Another addicting flash game...

    I've built a water tower first, and upgraded it to 80 (or 160). Next, I've built two plant towers all the way up, and last me to about lvl 54 (with 8000 gold reserve). Then I've built another plant tower, and again I had some 8000 gold reserve until I've had to build more towers Plant towers...

    If nature would have had some 240 range, it would have covered all the map. As such, 300 range for a water tower is probably a bit excessive

    Another addicting flash game...

    Getting a flower tower up to the third level is pretty hard... and on second level is no big deal (first level flower tower is somewhat more expensive than upped green tower - 3000vs 2200, hits as hard - 9000 - but has lower range -150 vs 215). Second level flower tower is a joke - cost...

    Division by zero now possible - a new evolution in math?

    It is somewhat possible - welcome to the world of infinity. However, the interesting part would be: What do you get when you divide 1 by 0, then multiply it by 0? 0, 1, 2? This seems just a new notion for a value that can be plus or minus infinite

    Runing up and down stairs - good aerobic exercise?

    You would use about twice the energy you consume - if you have 100kg, and go up stairs 100m (vertical), you need 100,000J of energy. This is some 25,000 calories, or 25Cal. Double this to account for energy losses, and you use 50 Cal. Walking fast (6km/h), and assuming some 300m linear distance...

    Do you like driving a manual car?

    I have a 5-speed manual. Next one will probably be an automatic. Having a manual gearbox helps a bit with fuel efficiency - especially compared to the old 3-speed automatics. Compared to the newer (newer than some 10 years) 4-speed or 5-speed automatics, you have little advantages in...

    Airbus A380: So big; it's useless.

    Bigger planes will have better fuel efficiency - all else being equal (they have more interior volume per frontal area). However, for planes total mass must be taken into account. Anyway, I feel the A380 has improved fuel efficiency than the 747 variants - and probably the DreamLiner, if...

    This got to be one of the best rants all time

    Those two guys didn't do it with malicious intent. They weren't out to do harm. We here have a religious community (the Jehova witnesses I think) that sometime walk on the street giving away their magazines (Watch Tower). They don't do little more than that, they don't bang on people's doors...

    Six Muslims Removed From Flight for Praying

    You already paid your ticket (you paid for transportation). It is hard to have it taken away from you. This would be just like you buying a PS3, and when on your way home, be it removed from you and given to someone else. You will certainly receive another PS3 when more will be available...
