    Adobe Releases Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements 11

    I hope they stepped up Premiere Elements more than a little. Sony Vegas Movie Studio, now just Sony Movie studio puts a much more powerful tool in consumer hands than the last version of Premiere Pro. Photoshop Elements has had its ridiculous feature removals now and then. But its been an all...

    Microsoft Accused of Wasting $70K in Power to Avoid Fine

    This doesn't seem too far off from something I encountered working for Ford. Dealers are given a discount on parts as long as they keep that inventory moving. Somehow in this convuluted scheme its not just about the dealer having the room to store a minimum order. While Ford has a return...

    SysAdmin Corner: Demystifying RAID

    Very nice article. Had some plans for multiple arrays in this machine but hard drive prices went up and I am only getting caught up on that now. My first raid was actually with my laptop. I was gifted an identical drive to the one that came with it by tech support for GenTechPC for...

    According to the W3C, we'll see HTML5 by 2014

    Yup completely ridiculous that people implemented something that is not even a standard yet and could change at a moments notice. Not the thought you were looking for was it? Everybody go buy some 802.11AC routers NOW!

    Picked up a Samson Meteor USB Mic today

    Thanks for finding that. If I was podcasting or something it would be an absolute must. I still need a mic stand for some videos and that is the cheapest at the moment so I grabbed it. Also picked up a pop filter. Went to a store called Guitar Center on my break. Picture: (Assuming...

    Picked up a Samson Meteor USB Mic today

    Wouldn't really call myself an audio junkie since I could care much less about what something sounds like than most of the audiophiles I run into. The Mixer you see in the background is part of my Gaming setup. Blending multiple sound cards into one headset so that my audio recordings only...

    GoDaddy Suffering Major Outages, Rendering Many Sites Inaccessible

    If this is a DNS issue if your hosting a website with them its only a secondary issue. If your using them as a registrar and have their DNS it won't matter where your site is hosted. I gave them a thought as well. Many of the alternatives on the Anti SOPA get away from go daddy list were...

    Only in Battlefield 3 video competition

    If you look super close i actually do and i made the text reflect it. The previous audio had me saying how do you switch seats in this thing. I forgot it later. The scene was supposed to include me trying to pull out of the dive. Problem is you actually can recover this dive last second. Even...

    Only in Battlefield 3 video competition

    I wont pretend to have any expectations for this video but it was a joke that turned into an idea that turned into an entry no matter how serious. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ty8NnJK8VtU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Don't forget to view in...

    Latest BF3 patch ruin the chopper? I don't think so. My best round ever with it.

    Now that is very odd. Funny story about Fraps not working. In the middle of a recording session for my Only in BF3 submission (I am doing a joke, not actual game play) Fraps stopped working or so it seemed. I stopped the project since we had pretty much done all we could do with only 2 people...

    Latest BF3 patch ruin the chopper? I don't think so. My best round ever with it.

    Nah battle-recorder is still not available and it seems as if it might not ever. With Fraps if you Alt+Tab loop recording stops. Tabbing out while recording might have mixed results. BF3 for example can do more than just tab out to minimized. Being one of those games that can do windowed...

    Latest BF3 patch ruin the chopper? I don't think so. My best round ever with it.

    Every one of those kills was on prerecord :p actual sum of everything is 11 minute long and I did upload an uncut copy of those. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmJtlWve1YQ I currently have it set to 2 minutes which lets me forget to record for awhile but I usually have it set to 1 minute so...

    Latest BF3 patch ruin the chopper? I don't think so. My best round ever with it.

    Armed with 2 sets of flares and not too much to take it down the chopper has been the crazy killer in the sky for some time now. Its not uncommon for people to go 40 to 60 and 0. The latest patch removed gunner flares and below radar. As well as extending the range of the AA and shoulder...

    Your highest 'Powered On' hard drive?

    Damn now I am going to have to go searching. The 2 320 GB drives that make up my recording array were in my laptop for 3 years it would be nice to see what they say. My oldest so far a 250 GB 2.5 inch I bought in 2008 as a usb enclosure ripped it out and put it into my laptop. It then served...

    NVIDIA Rolls Out GeForce 306.02 Beta Driver

    Well remember BETA is in 50% or more cases with Nvidia a tag given to a stable driver that has yet to be WHQL certified. Not that WHQL certified drivers are even stable who are we kidding :p There are some true beta's and screw ups like the one beta driver that disabled over current protection...

    What Happens to Your Digital Goods When You Die?

    I only find this an after thought to the real problem. Sure the licenses might now allow you to sell or transfer. But even being alive the eventual problem at its core is still present. Older software when it goes unsupported thanks to the DRM and Activation routines can be turned useless...

    How to Make Your Own Cat5e Network Cable

    NICE. Anyone knows what the deal is with the plastic inside cat 6 cables? At least the premade ones? I needed to do about 90 feet from one room to another. Instead of buying a spool i would never use I bought a 100 foot cable and cut it up for my needs. Inside was a + sign shaped clear...

    Windows 8 RTM - Get Ready for October Release

    Nah you will love this response, the day Apple blocks a device I want preventing me from purchasing it I will never spend a single dollar on anything they sell. Windows 8 makes it look like I will be on Windows 7 until 2022 and then I am buying a Mac after that lol. At least I can still run...
