That would be smaller quantities, and smaller-scale problems.

LCDs are another product with a long, complex supply chain that has, at least once a year, been convicted of price fixing or other market manipulations.

To be honest, a hydrogen tanker rupturing in the ocean and spilling it's entire load would be much better then an oil tanker doing the same. Edit: Just had a vision of using dirigibles to transport the gas...neat ;)

Because they were considering exporting Hydrogen, IIRC.

Is it that hard to believe?

That would be The Terminator (aka, your governor)

Hardly. Wireless bandwidth actually is more expensive, so a compromise there is more reasonable.

You bet. All else being equal, dealing with an emergency at a station is best for any subway accident.

I am a big fan of this technology. Who was it that wanted to go from NYC to London in a semi-floating vacuum tunnel?

Indeed. I suspect some market manipulation is going on so they can milk this thing.

Off? I just unplug it. I don't know how it could use drivers, only the power connections are even wired to anything.

Battery prices in general, not just for those things.

The molex connector on the back is so you can directly connect a hard drive without a toaster. It is a bit of a kludge, to be honest, so I just use the toasters.

I'd read that the IQ on this was roughly equivalent to the 100mm, and I liked the thought of having more working distance.

While Greg was here, we were working both slots of the toaster pretty hard. I had a USB fan blowing across both drives.

I really doubt anyone will be able to tell the difference.

I hadn't seen those before. Neat idea. I would bet that battery prices will rise as hybrids take off.

Thanks for the tips. I got the TC (and the lens, for that matter) because it gives me a capability I didn't have before. Not sure what I'll use it for, or even if I'll like it, but now I can find out. What are your favorite macro subjects and techniques?

Any tips for managing DOF in macro? There doesn't seem to be much of it.

WOW64

Am I being naive to believe that they are, in fact, not having these negotiations? Or that Verizon is trying to start a dialog and Google wouldn't have any of it? Google is one of the major winners in a neutral internet.

Curse Best Buy for having impressive inventory...another toy.

New Toy

In China, particularly in Shenzhen, the space between the lanes is where the bikes and motorcycles are. Pedestrians cross the road all over the place, simply finding gaps in the slow (<25mph) traffic. The reason this works is because every vehicle, bike, and pedestrian constantly varies their...

That is a neat idea. For that purpose, it wouldn't need to move quickly, or have as many stations, or have as many routes through the city.

It would be laughed at not because it isn't a good idea, but because it is far from a perfect one. That will be the cause of some nasty accidents. It will most likely be worth it, but that doesn't fly in countries that elect their leaders and watch every accident on the news.

This is costal California. I am getting half inch CDX plywood, thirty pound felt, and lifetime composite shingles combined with galvanized bonderized gutters and flashing. The attic is vented enough for this climate.

Of all that, the ones I run (without issue) are uTorrent, Firefox and 7zip.

Technet Plus

The next phase at my place is the roof. That starts Monday.

I would look to VMWare server. I run Acronis on my machines without issue.

More elegant, but much slower, and more likely to fail. I have a couple dozen netbooks out there, and have already had 4 go bad.

I don't experience these pauses, and there is a significant gap between "significantly slower" and "not faster".

7 Ultimate everywhere. Currently deploying 7 Pro for everyone at work. Very easy to install, not significantly slower than XP for normal stuff.

Ah, the best of them will do 1000FPS! At a resolution of 224x56. Even at 420FPS it can only do 224x168.

Putting in a soffit of some kind?

That actually sound pretty demanding to me. My 7D will only do 60fps, and it cost thousands. To get it to do time-lapse requires a computer. What have you found so far?

Mine does USB tethering right out of the box, but hotspot requires some software.

I would love to have even 2.1. My brand-new i1 is still running 1.5.

F-22 on FLIR....pretty.

Sandstorm was awesome. But I use Auzentech stuff now.

That can be a preference in your user control panel.

Try booting to a liveCD of some kind and stress-test from that. That isolates the hardware from the OS without having to do a complete re-install.

If it is rated at a higher speed it will likely be more stable at lower speeds with lower voltages.

Yeah, I have a strong suspicion that none of the benchmarking tools are actually accurate for SSDs, particularly SSDs in RAID. Seat-of-the-pants is fine for me.

I would try the ICH as well just for troubleshooting.

What controller are you using?

Ok. So you are not happy with the performance of a single corsair? On what controller? What are the performance figures?

Performance of which one?

Nope. I use the foam double-sided tape. Works great on the PS.
