    I think I just broke SpeedTest.net Infinity.00?

    Okay so I upgraded my VPS from NFO's 2 thread package to 3 thread "core" if you want. Everytime I have stepped up they end up moving me to a different rack because the quad xeon's are used for up to 8 1 Core VPS's or 4 2 Thread etc. Blew my mind when I saw i had gone from a W3520 to a X5690...

    Valve Confirmed to be Working on Steam for Linux

    Even people who were proponents of OpenGL have given up a bit. Then there is the whole push to go without a middle API which is great if your a major studio but kind of Idiotic for Independants. It is also a little backwards in some respects. When I picked up my library of DirectX books I was...

    Physical Game Mediums

    You mean possibly no options. I mean the PSP Go and the Vita, nothing. Sony had announced intentions years ago before the PSP Go even came out to make the PS4 discless. Not that it will be for sure but.

    Testing the waters with one of my new logos.

    This is a rough draft and your going to see 2 whites because the top is transparent. I did not plan on going back to my old font and thats why I let the O's show in stock form which are a bit ugly. I will edit them later. This is the 2D Abstract logo, im also doing a 3d abstract and a couple...

    Windows File Permissions not inherited when moved only when copied?

    Well the problem is the file doesn't have the permissions it needs. So im trying to inherit from the destination rather than preserve the original. But either way you have me pointed in the right direction. The "sync" is between 2 servers and is effectively manual but in code. The primary...

    Windows File Permissions not inherited when moved only when copied?

    I was writing a sync program for someone I mirror for and I noticed when I move the downloaded files after verifying the md5 the permissions are not inherited. According to Brian Lich a Microsoft Moderator on Technet: I would lay down and accept this but there is a suggestion this isn't 100%...

    Microsoft Visual Studio 11 Preview

    Yeah problem with being self taught you don't know shit. LOL That's good. Primary reason I am moving away from Pascal, go ahead joke some more. Is that I am tired of the lack of 64 bit support and well support altogether. Free compilers, very well supported on most platforms, that's whats...

    Microsoft Visual Studio 11 Preview

    Actually an area where it has things the standards should have :p What I mean to say is I think Dynamic Multi Dimensional Arrays should be a part of the standard and last i looked their not. Probably the only thing I like about C++ Builder is it is currently there as an actual part of the...

    Microsoft Visual Studio 11 Preview

    The only reason I have ever had to touch VS is because of the header changes to DirectX that prevent me from using the newer libraries with other compilers. Though I intend to finally switch to C++ as a full time language I still wish to avoid VS but its inevitable that I will miss the IDE and...

    1366x768 Surpasses 1024x768 As Most-Used Resolution on Web

    Before anyone asks oh my god who is still using 1024x768. Anyone lol. It could be an old internet kiosk in a mall. An old computer in a medical facility. A sight deficient person with a tube monitor. Netbooks probably make up the main purposeful use of them but that's fading thankfully...

    4.7Ghz there is some hope after all.

    I was just redoing my machine and decided it might be time to update that bios. I was on a bios that happened to bring the initial ivy bridge support but there had been a few since affecting all areas. With a successful overclock its kinda hard to risk updating. BIOS support can effect...

    ENERMAX MAXREVO 1350W ATX12V

    Good luck finding too many here though. Not a big pool at the moment to pick from. One of the other good signs is that Enermax is an oem with the rare exception they design and manufacture their power supplies. Having more control over the product in power supplies tends to yield better...

    Help with CloneZilla and laptop

    If its a Seagate hard drive just use their tool which is based on Acronis. I keep a backup of the restore partition of my ASUS recovery partition as well as various states of install. If you do an exact copy bit for bit it will be the same size as the drive with no compression. If you do...

    High Speed SD Cards

    You mean 1000 Bytes per Kilobyte (oops) etc and so on right? Since well you know its 8 bits per Byte. Which is the whole reason why the metric has always been 1024, multiples of 8. Yeah between advertising departments and formatting, storage has always been a bit lacking :p But why do people...

    Battlefield 3 graphics cards how low can you go? A 6670 Quick Bench

    Well the system he is going for has a 6770 in it rather than the 6670 tested so knock a few off add a dozen on. He was looking between one of the better Llanos and an FX-4100. Cant say for sure in concert with the 6770 what will happen but it should run as well cpu wise as my friends 1st Gen...

    Battlefield 3 graphics cards how low can you go? A 6670 Quick Bench

    I was helping a user on another forum determine what the cheapest PC he could put his son into for Battlefield 3 would be. Thanks to a gracious donation by Rob Williams for a project I have going on I had a Radeon 6670 to put to the test. I ran wild and racked up at least 1000 kills in...
