What peer reviewed publication(s) explains this distinction you are making? Not sure what you mean by "peer review". I believe he is referring to this meaning of "peer review": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_review#Scholarly_Peer_Review It's the one where scientists write a report on their findi...

Hey, I have proof that Intelligent Design is Creationism, renamed: watch this Nova program , and during the the trial, they show the original manuscript for the book called " Of Pandas and People " where their search and replace that tried to simply replace the word "Creationism" with "Intelligent ...

Scaling solves it all. Linux used SVG which should resolve most of the icon issues (but not some of the fonts). Otherwise it's scaling which never works correctly unless it's a 4:1 scale.

For giggles I would try the card without the shroud and strapping your own fan to the heat sink. I would also look at reapplying thermal grease. I think this is inherent in the aftermarket OEM cooler segment. I have an Asus 5770 CuCore that did the same thing - idles at 60c and ran up to 110c in Fur...

Holy necro-post! Also, thank you for finding it and bringing it back to the front. I've recently been playing with Speedfan and the post(s) by dhanson are extremely useful!

A friend suggested an alternative, learn Joomla, PHP, and some other stuff, grab small projects from Craigslist, and then bigger contracts. While some people would relish the idea of working at home there is also the higher isolation one faces under such conditions. Like anything else one has to de...

I got out of the technology sector in the last down turn for all of the reasons listed here. Even when it was strong in the late 90's through 2002 it was still a wildly swinging and unstable career field in which to get a raise or promotion meant moving to a different company. There are plenty of wa...

Not any politicians on either side of the aisle foresaw the problems that occurred... The claim that Obama chose health care reform before control of deep water drilling is ridiculous. If there was problem with MMS oversight, he could have fixed that without Congress. Please, stop making it so easy...

Think of the On Off values like your thermostat at home.

The fan turns on at 35 degrees and cools the processor to 30 degrees, then shuts off. It prevents your fan from constantly cycling off/on/off/on at 34.9 and 35.1 degrees.

Probably because it takes longer than 17 months to fix 96 months of willful disregard and destruction of legal infrastructure and economy by the previous administration. Nope, the government regulations "could" be fixed almost immediately (assuming it was actually broken or anyone on the planet kne...

I think you are right. Why else wouldn't Obama have fixed those terrible MMS regulations and secret Cheney policies that have existed for the last 17 months that he has been US President (most of that time with a filibuster-proof Congress controlled by his own Democratic Party)? Probably because it...

The UN is having problems understanding why US drones are killing so many innocent civilians in its "precise" strikes. I am sure there was more to the news story than that, I only read the title and the subtext, but not the whole artice, now I cant find it. Now for the UN to say anything of the lik...

I'm a little confused here... Is it that the US is concerned with wars for oil? The US is quickly becoming a global pariah because it repeatedly throws itself into situations where it doesn't belong and is generally unwanted, in the name of establishing flowing oil, stability in oil drilling nations...

Some funny things about the US - Israel - Palestine situation... The US has been decidedly backing away from supporting Israel over the last 10 years. They had a blank check from us up through Bush 1, but since Clinton our international policy regarding these two nations has changed considerably. Wh...

America, as a political entity, is two things: Codependent and Fundamentalist Democratic. If this is your definition of codependent, as well as the dictionaries definition - "Codependency or Codependence is a tendency to behave in overly passive or excessively caretaking ways that negatively impact...

But to truly win a war you have to take away the enemies will to resist - to do that you have to kill large numbers of civilians as in WW2 or bring them round to your way of thinking. That's why you can never win in Iraq or Afghanistan because the US government could not take the bad press that wou...

The easiest, fastest and most economical way to get $1m USD is to print it yourself. I would stick with $20 and lower denominations. The printed bill's value is intrinsic in it's visible appearance only since the USD is backed in faith only (that's the real reason it says "In God We Trust") since we...

i dont watch network news, and the only published news i get is an rss feed on my google homepage from Al Jazeera english. while i dont like their editorials, their reporting itself is quite good. Having been present at a number of events that Al Jazeera subsequently covered and published, I would ...

i tend to see this as a backlash against a screwed up trend in education currently. history books have ALREADY been rewritten with a heavily liberal slant. for example: going through school, in history class i never once got a proper breakdown of the civil war in terms of battles, major players, et...

If you don't need 3d at all then I'd say you should be fine with the 530's IGP with Kernel 2.6.33:

Did you see the thread about the Antec Front Panel Audio issues? I vote for an errant ground between the power, reset or sleep switch. Particularly if you have the Power Button mode in the BIOS set to sleep, or if you have a sleep switch. That was caused by a ground loop, which is a well understood...

Clarkdale graphics under Linux is still maturing. Ubuntu requires 2.33 to work correctly, which is not an official kernel (2.32) in 10.04. There is a repo that has it, I've used it and it works pretty well though still a little glitchy with 3D accelerated video (Compiz). That said, I purchased a 577...

Judge - you are only partially correct. The other problem that needs attention is what I call the investor relations profit margin epidemic. A companies net worth is based on their number of outstanding shares and the market value of those shares. Traders buy shares in a company when they see growth...

What problems are you experiencing with the AMD Catalyst drivers in Linux. I'm using the latest (10.4 I think) drivers from Ubuntu's 10.04 repos with no issues at all...

Those in the US would probably have heard about a "relief well" being drilled, not heard about that until I saw in mentioned on one of those pictures, any ideas on how thats going to work out.? Andy The idea is that a second well drilled near the wellhead of the leaking pipe will reduce the pressur...

Maybe it's the angle on the graph paper, but I think your heatsink is crooked!?!

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with this same issue, but in a 3480. I just figured it was because I had it routed funny (and a little tight).

http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product06.php?pr_index=480&cl_index=1&sc_index=25&ss_index=63 Q08 sweet case IMHO. People might scoff at the perforated front but you can still keep that case below the noise floor where I live. Even with everything shut off its still often around 35-40dbs.. Tha...
