Well they did fuck with the Iranian nuclear program in kinda of the same way (Effects wise) by causing their centrifuges to overload and damage. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something at play here, though more than likely it's just incompetence of the contractor.

It's actually a by product of the architecture. 290/260/250/240 are all new chips, while the ones that require the connector are rebrands of the previous generation at lower prices. It's just that every single new motherboard you buy now (And I think the last two generations?) comes with PCIe...

There is supposed to be a 290 as well as the 290X. The 290 will be the units that failed to bin to 290X, and if history proves anything they'll more than likely flash to a full 290X in most cases. And it was confirmed at the announcement that PCIe 3.0 has enough bandwidth that CrossFire/SLI...

Here is more info about the lavabit shutdown. It's really scary how the Judge in the case seemed to have no comprehension of what the FBI was asking for and what the consequences of it would be. The implication of listening to backbones with a database of SSL keys is pretty scary as well. How...

If they do a PC version of GTA Online I hope it works with a lot more users than 16.. Now 64? that'd be such awesome chaos.

Here is the indictment for the attempted murder charges.. it's almost got a breaking bad feel to it. Super nerd ends up paying people for hits. It's fascinating stuff.. Silk Road got infiltrated by an under cover agent and was taken down from the inside...

They can only go after them if they got complacent and weren't encrypting things. The other concern would be if they manage to figure out the coin tumbler and can trace specific amounts of money to transactions then trace those transactions to specific ip addresses that the sellers were...

Whether or not people abandon the idea is going to come down to how many sellers and buyers end up getting caught in the aftermath. Assuming everyone passed personal information encrypted and the sellers were responsible and shredded/deleted it post use then very few people will get taken down...

Yea.. KNCMiner is best bang for your buck now with estimated shipping in November. BitFury units still have a considerable power advantage, 300 watts for roughly 500-600Gh/s while KNCMiner is 1400Watts 600~'ish, with Bitfury costing 20$/Ghs while KNCMiner is 10$/Ghs. I'm betting on the BitFury...

The guy who made super meat boy says the controller was on par with a 360 controller and he only prefers the 360 because of the amount of time he's already spent with it. Honestly if he can play a twitchy game like super meat boy on it and has no complaints, I have a hard time believing it's...

From the look of the controller and how's it's supposed to work I have a lot of reservations. Valve has never really lead me astray, so as others have said I'm definitely in the boat of not bashing it until I've tried it. Even though I'm kind of disappointed the last announcement was a...

Once you become common law unless there is some prior agreement and she's paying serious cash into the property she can go after you for what she feels is her fair share of the property. So no, just because your name is on mortgage doesn't mean she can't try and take some of your equity via the...

I was using my mouse and keyboard, maybe the lack of a controller was the issue.

How long did you have to play the game in big picture mode before it triggered the completion of the badge? I tried a few times, 5-10mins each and I just couldn't get the badge to trigger.

I'm not sure if anyone here caught the announcement of Mantle, a graphics API like glide was for 3DFX that AMD is creating. It's supposedly a port of the low level graphics API's used in the Xbox One (maybe even the PS4) and allows developers to reuse a lot of the code they have for consoles on...

I disagree, only because the division inside the company that was creating the revolution in controllers was laid off and the property they were developing handed off to them to pursue it on their own. A new control mechanism coupled with the new SteamMachine is just too much new shit and...

This is true hah, the real concern in my situation was how she would take the proposal of the mortgage agreement. I watched a few friends in long term relationships with common law wives end up losing half the equity in their home despite the women involved not contributing anything near half of...

I've had a similar situation with my girlfriend. I have a mortgage on my condo but I make quite a bit more than her and it didn't seem to fair to split it down the middle. I have no utilities, they're all included in my condo fees. So we added our two incomes together, figured out what % each...

Gabe has stated a bunch of times that he really dislikes the apple app store and how closed off it is, and has a lot of problems with the direction Windows is going and how it's gravitating towards the Apple app store experience. I honestly don't see him inhibiting any other stores from working...

It's not just a stripped kernel though, they are literally modifying the kernel to favor a better gaming experience. A normal OS will running specific optimizations in the kernel that tailor it to be pretty generic in the way it handles tasks. The scheduler for example will be setup to...

Just to make sure I got this right, if I have SteamOS installed to a shitty HTPC and my main PC is in the other room.. I can stream the rendered game from the PC in computer room to my cheap HTPC? If so.. fuck yea sign me up.

When random events happen (generally a blue dot will appear with a red one) it'll clear out specific events locally until you leave the area and come back. Sometimes I've even had to switch characters and back again to get them to re-appear. It sucks, but they're pretty fun when they happen. I...

I got my Bitfury starter kit yesterday, they ended up overnighting it even though I didn't pay for express shipping. They fell behind and my unit shipped out two weeks later, but they mined some coins from their internal units to pay us back for the lost time. I got enough from that to pay for...

Walt is definitely going after the Aryan Brotherhood in the first episodes preview, an attempt to redeem himself after letting Hank die. It'll be his way of proving to his family that he didn't want it to go down like it did and he's going to take his revenge against them. He probably has a tape...

I'm 10 hours in and it's just amazing. I agree 100% with Trevor being the personification of GTA. I honestly don't get the whole n word complaint though... I found it barely noticeable. Franklin so far is probably my favorite character, out of the three he's the most relateable. Plot...

The PS3 leak is out now on torrent sites.

This has to leak for the PS3 like yesterday :/ I'm jonesing so bad for this and checking torrent sites hourly to see if it's up now is becoming OCD'ish. I'm just pissed this isn't simultaneously launching for PC, theres no way I'm buying it twice like I did GTA4.

In the beginning I loved how hard it was, how it felt like an accomplishment to do anything. Just that sense of adventure and mystery.. it was frustrating as fuck at the time but when I accomplished things it was exciting. Later on when I got into a middle tier guild it was all about building a...

Since that reuter's article is gone, heres one on cbc. http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2...d-nations.html

This one is pretty awesome too.. the chainsaw kills me.

Here is the Saints Row 3 sing along if anyone is interested, I haven't seen any videos or reached the saints row four one yet.

Yea, it's supposed to be you disrupting the matrix and it going all screwy. There are AI side mission nodes you can do that seriously warp when things get close to them. It's hella fun tossing things into it to see how they get messed up. Will a dude spawn some huge ass titties? Will his eyes...

In all honesty I should have seen this coming considering the complexity of their supply chain. Chips fabbed in europe, packaged in California, motherboard parts/power supplies sourced in China, motherboards assembled in Chicago I think? and the final assembly taking place at a new facility in...

As far as my understanding goes they have all the chips and boards, it's just final assembly at this point that's taking so long. It kind of pisses me off that they're shipping December orders of Jalapenos but they're still on the first couple days for singles. Why they're not taking all those...

The online stuff looks fucking awesome. They need a PC version for it.. it would be on another level with modding. Especially if they do some kind of steam integration (unlikely though).

I watched it twice on the weekend just because I wasn't sure if I missed some undertones in my first watching. I get the artsy side of it, I loved the cinematography.. no matter how they want to twist it the whole thing left me wanting.

Eurogamer 8/10 PC Gamer 90/100 I'm counting down the minutes to play this game, it looks awesome.

My 60Gh/s single from BFL still isn't here yet and it doesn't look like I'm going to get it anytime soon. I hedged my bet and bought a megabitfury Mboard and a single HBoard. It's expandable to 16 boards for a total hashing power of 400Gh/s+. The way BFL is going I'm going to see my megabitfury...

The engine that he designed and created for Rage was rather impressive, it was just sadly before it's time. The idea of scaling your visuals up and down in real time and preferring frame rate over maintaining visuals was no easy feat. It would also scale to maximize the available hardware...

I can't speak for whatbox, but feral hosting can provide some pretty shit speeds to north america. They can provide a test file to you to test your speeds to the servers and I recommend testing that before you make the plunge (I don't see it on their website anymore, you might have to ask their...
