    Car accident and repair questions.

    There are probably hundreds of Toyotas in your local junkyard. As Rais said, just pick up a door from there and get it painted. I'd ignore the rocker damage.

    Absolutely with Joeboo on this one. Previously, I would go high end air with the best fans. Now I have had my Corsair H100 for for over 3 years now on my 3770K running at 4.5GHz 24/7 and it runs dead silent. I would recommend it to anyone and would absolutely buy it again in the future.

    The issue is, I am betting the USB wall socket is only 1A output to be safe for shitty Apple products. Anything else that takes a bigger charge like Samsung (2A) or hell, even their new Supercharger versions that go higher. The result is you have devices that charge slow as shit.

    Thanks for the heads-up. I didn't even know this was a thing! Added to my torrent downloads.

    Amazon Prime Day - July 15th

    These are just as underwhelming as Black Friday / Cyber Monday "deals". No idea why people buy into this shit.

    I used a Boxee before my HTPC build. You can absolutely use more than 2TB by putting the storage on the network (NAS or PC share), not hanging off the stupid USB slot. As for my monster sized NAS, yea HD content takes up a ton of space. Good quality 1080p DTS-HD MA BluRay rips of a movie are...

    USB3 is literally 10x the speed of USB2. It will simply depend on how quick your cards can read / write. I avoid USB2 anything like the plague now.

    Everquest II

    Yea, my bad for reading out of context. Kreugen hit on a great point. So many people were chasing their own interests for quests and many required group support. You would have an entire group all working on completely disjointed quests spread all over the fucking place. That was not fun at all.

    They (external drives) are far more prone to failure for a start, but also quite a lot slower transfer rate unless you are using eSATA. It just depends on what the person is trying to do with it. The argument was about 100% SSD or SSD + spinning HD desktop configuration.

    Jurassic Park 4

    I was disappointed that the baddie dino on the rampage used its camouflage all of 1 time. Strangely enough, in The Lost World (JP pt2) book, this was the defining ability of the most lethal dinosaur. Sadly the film went in the direction of stupid instead of following the book. Carnotaurus -...

    You beat me with the mcconaughey shoops! New Horizons launched with the fastest escape velocity, but only had 1 gravity assist by Jupiter. Voyager got a few gravity assists, hence its far greater speed. Another fun read: Voyager

    Voyager 1 = currently 131.89 AU from the Sun New Horizons = currently 32.84 AU from the Sun

    Another fun fact I am trying to figure out.. Voyager 1 was launched in 1977 and travels at ~38,000 MPH. New Horizons launched in 2006 and only travels 9,000 MPH. How has it already covered 1/4 of Voyager's distance (based on communications time napkin maths) in relatively short time?

    And to put it further into perspective, Voyager 1 takes about 36 hours for one-way communication! *edit* My bad, that is for 2-way. Just over 18 hours for one-way.

    Pointless storing media on an SSD anyway. Your bitrate while reading from the disk for playback is a tiny fraction of platter drives, let alone SSD. I have a 512GB Samsung 850 Pro for OS, programs, & games. Then a 4TB HD for all my active torrents and local media storage. For the long term media...

    Car Buying Help

    Palum, for everything you listed I love my Land Rover LR4 (Discovery 4). The only issue is the price creep on them has been kinda nuts. 2013 was the last year they used the 5.0L V8, so their used prices have basically stuck. My truck is nearly 2 years old, but has only lost about 5-8k off of...

    To be fair, that was what Intel were doing up until that point. This is also the supposed reasoning Everquest 2 ran like shit. They were trying to build an engine with longevity and up to then, it was ever increasing clock cycles. Intel decided to go with parallel processing and multi cores...

    2006 was the year Intel released the Core 2 Duo, which is where they left AMD in the dust. Nothing has been close since. But yea, Noodle's point stands. 10 years since producing anything to rival Intel's chips. It's a shame though. With all monopolies, we as consumers suffer for it with...

    Just thinking about the wording of "1 per machine". There are easy work arounds for this, if it is simply a client side software implementation. The only real way to enforce this is 1 per IP. Of course, then they run into the issues with multi-player households. It will be interesting to see how...

    They have their niche, but yea I think the FX60 was the last AMD chip that had better gaming performance than an Intel chip. That was what.. 10 years ago?
