Agreed. I have heard of other folks having artifacts on certain model 7xxx series cards with 13.1. Older versions seem to not exhibit the issue. I would also caution to research the 12.x releases to see which one provides the best hash rate for the card.

Excellent analogy. Wish some of the folks from the bitcoin forum could hear that. The Asicminer project/company is slowly auctioning off hardware. My kind advice to select a pricing model was returned with retarded shareholders with blind greed chanting that they should only maximize profit...

You summed up the dollar fairly well. Don't forget that the government is robbing their citizens blind with these low interest rates and the other invisible tax known as inflation. With that being said, I think Bitcoin will be the Napster of the crypto coins. Something will come along whether...

Agreed with the above to a certain extent, specifically with regards to what files and where. If you know the general commands for most things that is great because the rest is just a man away from the syntax needed to perform the task. As a hiring manager, understanding fundamentals is...

I do not disagree with your post. Of course the first thing that people realize they can do to rake in money is to scam for bitcoins, host sites that accept it for services, payments over Tor networks for Silk Road type items, and god knows what else. I think it is funny that people think it is...

Really it is difficult to do just that even with Bitcoin for a number of reasons. First, the transactions can be traced back. Second, if you are moving large amounts of money you will need to eventually go through a bank. US banks have auditing that looks at large money transfers, transfers over...

The whole Zimbabwe Dollar issue was amazing to watch unfold. I remember seeing pictures of people going to the grocery store w/ wheelbarrows full of money. For grins and giggles got some of the 100 trillion dollar notes from Ebay. nothing like holding half of a quadrillion dollars in the palm...

I don't trust MtGox at all. I mean they easily get taken down by a DDOS or slowed to a crawl. Then we learn MMs are trading on the back channel so their buys and sells are going through probably with ridiculous margins while pushing the price lower through manipulation. As long as we are...

Get enough stuff together and sell it to a scrapper or a scrap yard that accepts e-waste. Other alternatives are processing it yourself, but you need a crap load of stuff to get a meaningful return. Tons of parts have some gold, silver, platinum group metals, copper, etc. There are ways to...

I am fascinated by the whole craze, but am really interested in seeing how markets react to include governments and regulatory agencies. Will governments intervene and attempt to curtail virtual currencies? What happens if zerocoin like technology is implemented and the transactions become truly...

We are switching away from Symantec where I work for a number of reasons. We dumped Altiris for something a bit more robust with better tracking and reporting. Looks to be a winner. In the backup world, yes, Backup Exec is total crap. Once we moved everything to NetBackup it was much much...

Just had a buddy score a good gig for an up and coming medical company doing sr sys admin through indeed. Recommended it as the best place to start. Also as a hiring manager I can tell you that Monster is total crap. Our recruiters use Monster and it gets up candidates that half the time we...

Song is starting to get some media attention, only time before it goes crazy again. My kids already heard it a few times and that crap spreads like wildfire with the grade school kids.

Back from the dead necro style I enjoyed the video for about 10 sec and was ready to peace out. Gold stars to the people who watched the whole thing.

BFL has been riddled with shipping delays for months with over promising and under delivering. They had been taking preorders since Spring of 2012 and initially provided guidance that units would be ready Oct/Nov 2012. Since then there have been different reasons cited by the company with...
