    Apartment/Roomate tips

    << << dont get roommates, only advise i can give you >> Doubt this guy has much of a choice. Get a roommate that is busy, going to school, working, social life, etc. The less time they spend at home the less of a hastle it will be and the less likely you'll get sick of each other. Never...

    Media Player software is logging the songs and movies that customers play

    Here's the fix, as per a Slashdot post: 1. Find the file called "wmplibrary_v_0_12.db" which should be in your Windows system directory. 2. Delete it and create a zero length file called "wmplibrary_v_0_12.db" again. You can do this by deleting the original and then using the command "copy...

    do Diffrente processors gain Scaling diffrently (in %) on the same processs shrink?

    << Thanks for the backup. :) >> Welcome. :D << You're right, constant was a poor choice of words. Was I under the correct impression that wire delay typically does not reduce by the same factor as gate delay? Though this may be a huge generalization, but how do wire dimensions change...

    The bible, fact or myth?

    Cuteybunny et al, you'll get a better effect next time if you take several hundred liters of gasoline in a large wide pit and throw a match on it. Just an FYI.

    do Diffrente processors gain Scaling diffrently (in %) on the same processs shrink?

    Sohcan, those are pretty good explanations, I'm very impressed for someone not dealing with silicon directly every day. :D I do have a couple of corrections and clarifications though. I'll also throw a few comments of my own as I go. While it's true that wire delay dominates chip...

    Recharging regular alkalines in a Ni-Cad charger - is it really dangerous?

    Alkaline chargers use pulses of voltage. Ni-Cad and other regular rechargables typically use a constant voltage. This means the chargers used for one type of battery could be dangerous for another. At best, your battery will leak or become useless. At worst, it could explode or catch fire...

    What is your opinion on a relationship where you know you won't get married?

    I was going to type out a long answer, but I reread what you said and you mentioned simply that you didn't see the relationship going to that final state. If you don't, then you will continue to draw the ire of your families, of society for having children out of wedlock if you have children...

    What profession do you despise most?

    It's not up there, but I *HATE* educational psychologists. Sound weird? Well, it is but somehow they turn out to be the most judgmental and strange SOBs I've ever had to deal with. They've cost me a job opportunity, and they've cost me a fine in university. I give this profession a big two...

    On getting sick every winter

    Wash your hands (especially when you arrive home or are near someone sick), don't touch your nose/eyes/mouth without a tissue, stay away from sick people if you can, and take vitamins. Do all of those things and you will greatly reduce the frequency of colds you get. I used to get sick all the...

    << I guess i'm just bitter because as usual the design boys get all the glory and manufacturing isn't even mentioned. You guys just ensure that you can make 1 die on silicon that functions and then you throw it onto manufacturing for us to work out all the problems and turn that 1 die into 100+...

    Anyone with Social Anxiety Disorder?

    << It depends on if it's situational anxiety or generalized anxiety. For generalized, you're probably talking about something like Wellbutrin or Paxil. If it's situational, then you're talking Valium, Klonopin. But only a psychiatrist can decide what's right for you. Unless it's interfering...

    In one sentence in his State of the Union address, Bush has turned back a decade of reform in Iran.

    << Before the Bush's SOTU address, Iran's hardliners' grip on power were loosening. Now with his "Axis of evil" comment, Bush has done what those hardliners counldn't do themselves: solidify their grip on power. Bush has effectively reversed the reformist pendulum in Iran. >> If you think...

    Now why did GM have to go and uglyfy (Aztek/Avalanche) its Silverado???

    More missteps by GM. I think it's hilarious, given their past treatment of my family as customers. We won't be buying another GM again. With GM's hideous styling (nobody would be able to actually own that piece of garbage), and Ford's very spotty reliability lately (friend towed a U-haul...

    BANNING religious deals in the hotdeals forum?!?...UPDATE: BAN HAS BEEN LIFTED

    There are certain people on this board who just can't leave what is in their mind a "juicy target" alone.

    Cam modifying your car void your warranty?

    You shouldn't run into any problems if it's just rims unless it's something very very extreme. IMO if the tires are the same diameter, even a wider width wouldn't be enough to void your warranty. Think about it this way - if you had your rims smashed or your wheels/tires stolen, what obligates...

    New DRAM design uses only 1 transistor, no capacitor!

    << Is this similar to the 1T RAM that the Flipper GPU in the Nintendo Gamecube utilizes? >> No. One-transistor or 1-T SRAM is different. Traditional embedded SRAM is usually made with six transistors (6-T), which makes it fast but not very dense. AFAIK 1-T SRAM (a design licensed from the...

    "Performance" gain, die shrink versus Silicon-On-Insulator

    New DRAM design uses only 1 transistor, no capacitor!

    I read that article, and this is really exciting. I guess they can't even fit the trench caps in there any more, so you had to wonder how much charge they were going to hold anyway. :D In all seriousness, this is really good news and will really drive up memory densities more than the raw...

    "Performance" gain, die shrink versus Silicon-On-Insulator

    How does a computer generate a random #?

    Just to add my two cents to the discussion, a computer uses a pseudo random pattern generator called an Autonomous Linear Feedback Shift Register (or ALFSR for short) in software. What the ALFSR is is a series of 2-input XOR gates with flops between stages, in a pattern thus...
