    Installing an Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro...

    "One thing you might have to worry about is the what direction the fan is going to be facing. I installed that heatsink on an MSI K8N-Neo4F and there was not enough clearance between the fan and my memory to have the fan facing the front of the case. I ended up having to have the fan facing the...

    I've been saving odd change for the past 2 or 3 years

    What a dumb idea. Never give anything to homeless guys except maybe advise. Tell them to get a job! seriously, why feed the animals?

    Why do most people love fedex and not ups?

    I hate fedex. They have delivered a monitor of mine to apartment #1 instead of apartment #11, they have left things at my door, they refuse to leave things at my apartment complex office because they say they need my signature, and they have left my packages in a fedex truck instead of bringing...

    Would it be possible to invade the US?

    We can't buy automatic rifles. We can buy what the federal government decided to call assault rifles and banned in 1994. Assault rifles are just weapons that look cool, essentially. read this:

    Am I the only one who doesn't see the point in 99% of modern cellphones?

    I want to carry one device not 4 of 5. I want a phone, pda, mp3 player, digital camera, and while I am dreaming, a decent ssh terminal, web browser. I want the device to have wifi so I can sync it without having to plug it in and I want bluetooth so I can answer the phone without pulling the...

    Should I get a firearm for my new townhouse?

    I don't own a gun, but this response doesn't make sense. Why would I just give some robber my possessions and let insurance take care of replacing them? All that does is increase the cost of insurance for everyone and increases the chance of you getting robbed again. Why make it easy for someone...

    A BILLION barrels of oil under Utah!

    That's 45 days if we didn't buy oil from anywhere else during that time. That actually is a nice chunk of oil. Of course, it also says a lot about how much oil we use in a day.

    So, we have about 45 years 'till there's no more oil....

    Great, another nut who thinks we will be out of oil in 45 years. Oil production will not peak in 5 years since there are plenty of places around the world that we haven't even started drilling yet (That alaskan wildlife preserve for example also much of Siberia isn't open to drilling because it...

    Can you get well toned with just push ups and sit ups ?

    Btw, doing lots of situps and pushups is a cardio workout. If you somehow could manage to do, say 10 minutes of sustained pushups and 10 minutes of sustained, then you have just done a great cardio workout. All a cardio workout is increasing your heart rate over time. doing 15-20 minutes of...

    Can you get well toned with just push ups and sit ups ?

    Pushups are an ok exercise for the chest, shoulders, and triceps. You need to do a lot more reps then you would lifting weights. situps/crunches will build muscle in your abs. Doing lots of push ups and crunchs will build muscle and burn some fat so yes it will tone you.

    what is up with the atot repost nazis?

    What's up with the idiots who use the word nazi in phrases such as repost nazi or grammer nazi, or spelling nazi? How can you suggest that someone who criticizes people for making reposts is one of those people who helped murder 6 million jews?

    bill gates call to end h1-b visa cap

    I don't think Gates goes far enough. Instead of just raising the H1-B cap we should be increasing the number of people we allow immigrate into the US. The more people comming here means more jobs, more innovation, more tax dollars, more money for social security. If we bring in a few more...

    Steve Jobs or Kim Jong Jobs II

    Maybe Jobs does wish he could be a dictator, after all he is known to be an egomaniac. Of course the publisher knew that when they authorized the book. They knew that when they sent the book to Jobs friends. They could predict the likely consequences. Don't you think they did this to get free...

    Steve Jobs or Kim Jong Jobs II

    Kim Jong would have the Publisher arrested, tortured, and murdered. He'd go into stores, and pull all the companies books off the shelf, out of libraries, and burn them. He might even round up the authors that wrote for the publisher and kill them. How can you compare a dictator to a CEO...

    Steve Jobs or Kim Jong Jobs II

    Yep. Actions have reproccussions. Apple's shareholders can sue Jobs. The Publishing Company's shareholders can sue their CEO for doing something that caused their books to get pulled. Freedom is good.

    Steve Jobs or Kim Jong Jobs II

    So what? There are reprocussions to your actions. What a shock! If you tell a CEO of a company that you are going to publish an unauthorised book about him, He is going to have his company pull your books. If you are worried about the innocent bystander authors, you should write the publishing...

    Ok, there's been a lot of GM bashing recently

    GM's expanded their brands? since when? The only new brand they have added in over twenty years is Saturn. Well, they briefly did Geo but that got consolidated into chevy. Yes, their cars look the same. that started in the '70s if not sooner.

    Fedex shipping is fast

    Are you sure they delivered it to the right house? Once fedex delivered a monitor to me, at least according to the website. the problem was I was at work and they supposedly delivered it to my apartment. It turned out they delivered it to apartment #1 instead of apartment #11 where I live.

    The End of Oil?

    What a load of nonsense. The saudis not producing more oil was an economic decision. They are making a ton of money by keeping production at current levels. No major underutilized areas? There are large deposits of oil in Siberia that the Russians aren't drilling for because it is a wildlife...

    Fedex shipping is fast

    I don't understand. How could you not know that they tried to deliver? They leave a note on the door right? Did you stay home all day and not hear them knocking? UPS came to deliver today, one after it shipped. It all depends on where they ship from.

    question about how long to run/jog for weightloss

    A few things. Any exercise you do is better then doing no exercise. Doing 10 push ups and 10 situps during a commercial is better then sitting still. Heck twisting in your chair while sitting at a computer is better then sitting still. What's better weight lifting or running? Well, that...

    The flaw in Bush's strategy to defeat Muslim / Arab terror

    I bet Iraq will not be a problem by the end of the year. I don't see any evidence that the people fighting us have means of an extended fight. They are being turned in by the fellow Iraqis. The majority of them actually seem to want a free Iraq. I don't know if a free Iraq will be a benefit to...

    The flaw in Bush's strategy to defeat Muslim / Arab terror

    The poster is saying that because we are colonising whatever, the terrorists are attacking us. Raildog is pretty much saying that what the previous person doesn't make sense. Our "colonialism" isn't what is causing the terrorist attacks at all, it is just making an excuse for evil people to...

    When did pepsi remake pepsi one? I've been waiting for diet coke with splenda to come out in July and I find out from my brother-in-law that pepsi already has their splenda caffeine product out. Anyway, the stuff tastes pretty much like pepsi. much better then diet sodas.
