Do you have to have the game installed to access the code when the time comes? It shows up as DLC, so I'm kind of curious. Thanks for the heads-up though, this is awesome :D

To help combat things such as RSI, companies have long been developing ergonomic peripherals, and for the most part, most of them are predictable. But Smartfish has looked outside the box and developed a mouse like no other we've ever seen, and whether or not that's a good thing... we're here to...

Or you could use SyncBack, a very robust and easy-to-use solution! ;-)

When the iPhone 4 hit the market this past summer, it became one of the best-looking smartphones out there, and also supposedly one of the most durable - despite having a glass casing. This glass, though, is strengthened with various chemicals, and it was Apple's hope that there'd be less RMAs...

Keeping data backed up or synchronized in Windows isn't always the most self-explanatory of processes, and it's because the OS doesn't make it easy to do either of them. Fortunately, there's a solution that happens to be free, feature-rich and most importantly, reliable. It's called SyncBack...

What you describe already exists, but it might be an option in the settings. Whenever KDE has crashed on me, it'd simply restart and within seconds I'd be at the desktop.

It could be the particular chipset, I'm not sure. I'd be willing to blame Ubuntu more so though, because things were not quite as stable back then. I used to have bad issues with ATI cards as well using Ubuntu, but that's not really the case today. My netbook has an ATI card in it and it works...

I had a bizarre love/hate relationship with the original, and I blame benchmarking for it, heh. When I played it with friends, I LOVED it... had a total blast. Then I started benchmarking the same portion of a level over, and over, and over... and learned to hate it. The game's total...

When the Nintendo Entertainment System came out in the mid-80s, along with it came a video game and video game character that would stand the test of time. I'm of course talking about Super Mario Bros. and the lead character... Mario. I don't have to say just how much Mario and family of...

The latest version of Ubuntu was released this past Sunday, and the timing couldn't have been more perfect. As the latest version is 10.10, it only made sense to release it on 10/10/10, and for those at home, 101010 in base two binary in decimal format is 42 (32+8+2), also known as the meaning...

Last month, NVIDIA gave budget gamers a Fermi solution in the form of the GeForce GTS 450, and today, the company has followed-up with an even lower-end variant... the GT 430. Boasting a speed increase of about 50% compared to the GT 220, it's NVIDIA's hope that the GT 430 will find its place in...

The author of that page is Robbie Williamson... neat. Joe, that's strange about Ubuntu, but not much of a surprise either. Intel GPU drivers are notorious for being bad in Windows, so in Linux... forget about it. Still, I've had good success with Intel under Linux before, Ubuntu in...

I agree. Most commercials are horrible. I find that fast-food and beer commercials are the worst, although Budweiser is the main exception. Their commercials are always hilarious, which is good since the beer is crap ;-)

When SSDs first hit the scene in a big way, there were only a couple of controller vendors floating about - at least, those that we heard of. Of course there was Intel, but also JMicron, Indilinx and Samsung. Then out of nowhere, came a company named SandForce, and since then, it has become a...

I have a couple of these models here (including the 1075T), but haven't managed to get them benchmarked. I'm having some issues with our PC backups for some reason, so that's not helping. Being able to pick up a quad and have it act as a six-core would be amazing. I'm still not confident I'd...

Firaxis' latest Civilization game came out a couple of weeks ago and was greeted by some rave reviews, but at the same time, there were some mixed-reactions to it amongst long-time fans. Me? I've never touched a Civilization game before, so here's a fresh perspective... one I had to write while...

I am not familiar with that program at all, but it sounds like something could have corrupted the settings, and thus it fails to launch. You'd lose profile settings and the like, but it'd be worth a shot to remove or move the profile folder for the program. To find out where that is, just open...

When a company tends to try to be funny with every commercial, it usually grows stale after a while, but I find Geico has done a great job keeping the commercials hilarious. Here are a couple of my recent favorites: <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie"...

OEM upgrades are fine, as long as you don't want to use the license on a completely different PC. If you change out some parts, Windows might still complain, but it's usually fixable quickly, or at worst, you could just call up and get it sorted out. Certainly not the greatest way, but for a...

Intel's upgrade paths are ridiculous... huge kudos to AMD for not complicating things. That's a great board you've won though, and right now, LGA1156 is a great platform, and like some have mentioned here, it's not going to go out of date anytime soon. CPUs on that platform have HT, and also...
