Have you been horrendously unlucky with one specific brand?

For me, it's always been OCZ memory (when they were around) and XFX graphics cards. XFX at least bends over backwards to correct the problems -- both big and small -- but I always seem to have bad luck with them. I don't really mind buying from them as a result since they take care of me, but I...

Is your Amazon Fire TV stick...garbage?

Mine also gets stuck while playing Netflix (video stops but audio keeps playing; fast forwards to catch up). Never saw it on any other video streaming app. Problem seemed to get better as the weather cooled so I suspected overheating. I also have the stick <2' away from the router so that...

Cell phone radiation

Maybe try NFC sticker? I don't know about windows phone (despite owning a Lumia 830) but my boss can set all sorts of settings by programming an NFC sticker to do on his galaxy. For example, every time he enters his car he swipes his phone over a sticker and the phone settings switch to "car...

Should I buy a separate PC for work if overclocking??

Over clocking can affect the precision of calculations though. This is what stability programs like Intel Burn Test are designed to test. I'd never have an active over clock on a PC I use for work. I'd get another PC, OP.

Wand3r3r's WHEA overclock util - *Update 9/13* #Beta0.2

Here's the event trigger I made: Here's the action info: Start a program -> Program Script: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe Arguments: /K "echo WHEA-Logged." Cool utility by the way. Surprised no one else has built one before :)

You can do this in Windows 7/8 (probably others too but I haven't checked) with a scheduled task. One of the options with coming up with a scheduled task is to fire it off of an event. Just set it to fire off of WHEA. I don't have the script I used with me at the moment, but it's dead simple.

Should we stop our cores from Parking?

As someone who also has core parking disabled, this is not at all what happens -- at least not on my 2600K. I also did not see a significant increase in power consumption or heat with it disabled.

WHEA errors - how many is too many?

Just as an FYI: You can set a scheduled task in windows to fire off everytime a WHEA error is logged in the event viewer. It will be easier to keep track of the errors that way. Maybe have it write a log file of your own creation to the desktop. I have this on my upgraded netbook as I want to...

Why no mini-DTX boards? (or: GPU + sound card in a mini-ITX system?)

You're welcome :). I've been toying around with doing it myself but I'm pretty happy with my SG02 + mATX setup.

A lot of Mini-ITX boards come with a mini PCI-E slot somewhere on the motherboard (for a wireless card, or something). Some people have had good success plugging their sound card into a mini PCI-E to PCI-E adapter. If you really wanna go small, you could try that.

"fake" things in movies that piss you off.

Anything that involves enlarging a (usually very small) portion of an image that results in fidelity equal to or greater than the original image. http://media.moronail.net/images/stories/dg_pictures/0910/2010.jpg

Life is short - miss my mom

Lost my mom 3 years ago a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving. Brain cancer. Very aggressive. She was 50 when she died. After we had put her in hospice care I knew full well she didn't have long and yet, the day she passed, I wept so hard I felt like my eyes were gonna fall out. Sorry, I don't...

The Hours Teachers Work, and other thoughts on American elementary education

I had a feeling your wife's lesson plans were fairly static but I didn't want to make any assumptions. My girlfriend teaches science and has been teaching for about 4 years now. Every year, she's had to teach new curriculum. She's certified for general science, biology, chemistry, and...
