    Anyone Care To Guess The Average Rate Of Return On Money Paid Into Social Security?

    Oh, my! The wittle Trolls have got their panties in a wadd. No big surprise. What type of 'return' did Uncle Sam get on the 2001 & 2003 tax cuts? Show us how that VooDoo Economics 'stimulated' GDP. Show us how pre-emptive war, a massive military build-up and a DrugCo give-a-way (none of...

    Just when I feel a slight tinge of confidence in the Republicans, I read this

    You're right; it's not a side argument. It's just plain Spidey bullshit. --

    Obama admits he's been slow to act on Gitmo but that's not his fault.

    I hate to interject things like 'facts' into such a stimulating obfuscation but here is where we are: 1) Thomson was built for $140 million; 2) The 2010 Fed budget includes $170 million for the purchase of Thomson and necessary upgrades to 'SuperMax' status; 3) Thomson has been appraised...

    How does hypertransport speed effect 1055t performance?

    General Rule of Thumb: For each 10 percent increase in NB/IMC speed, memory bandwidth is increased 3-4 percent and latency is reduced 3-4 percent. Provides a nice boost in memory-intensive apps and most gaming. As far as the HT -- my understanding is as long as your HT speed exceeds the...

    AMD Phenom 11 945 Multi Core Processor

    It might help if we knew the rest of your components -- mobo, RAMs, cooling, etc. 1) Read your mobo manual and learn how to reset your CMOS (if necessary); 2) Drop your memory ratio one notch (i.e., one speed grade); 3) Lock your PCIe to 100MHz; and 4) Raise your clock from 200MHz...

    New comp that need new upgrades :) (HP budget pc madness)

    If you are willing to put a little effort into it I'd go ahead and swap out the motherboard because that HP BIOS is going to hold you back as much as anything. It's 'routine' maintenance if you snag a similar 785g AM3 chipset to replace a broken component. You should be more careful when...

    First budget htpc

    WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! DANGER, Will Robinson! <Robot from Lost in Space> You have spec'ed an mATX motherboard and chosen a mini-ITX case. Now ... it looks as if the Silverstone LC02 will accept an mATX motherboard so we will assume that its "Clone" will as well. That sounds...

    AHCI & Floppy F6 load questions-Help!

    I'll guess that mfenn is referring to the degradation of your SSD because of the limitations of the XP OS (no TRIM, garbage collection, etc.). If you get it going whatever you do, don't defrag the SSD in XP. And it's my understanding that turning off the indexing services will help lengthen...

    Cities Increasingly Turn to 'Trash Police' to Enforce Recycling Laws

    In case you haven't noticed (or are simply ignoring the facts) in the last 30 years we have closed 1,000s of leaking, stinking and obnoxious landfills. During that time in America not only do we now reclaim about 30% of the waste stream (reducing the need for future landfill space), our...

    Obama moves to partially legalize illegals

    Can't really argue with this. The Con Propaganda and Spin (& RAGE!) is going to bite them on the arse this November when they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Of course, they could dial back the hate and obfuscation, and actually explain to the American people how they would move the...
