    Intel, Disney Light Up the Sky Over Walt Disney World Resort

    There's no way this is real. Everyone knows that drones in the sky = crashing airplanes and I didn't see any crashing airplanes.

    Police Losing Battle To Get Drivers To Put Down Their Phones

    Here's an idea. Actually enforcing the law and pulling violators over. Far too often I see people blatantly using their phone behind the wheel in front of cops and nothing happens. Can't complain about a law being ineffective if there's little to no effort in enforcing it to begin with.

    FAA Confirms Shooting A Drone Is A Federal Crime

    Whoa dude, clam down. I wasn't looking to start an argument. I was only pointing out that the FAA has classified them as aircraft as you were implying they had not. What's happening in DC now is the process of determining that category of aircraft and what the rules should/should not be. As for...

    FAA Confirms Shooting A Drone Is A Federal Crime

    They have classified all RC models as UAS's. The 'A' actually stands for "Aircraft". This can be confirmed on their website (good starting point linked below). Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    Please for the love of god.....can i go back

    I like the new design. No issues here as far as wasted space or insufficient contrast between new and read threads. Looks great.

    FAA Task Force To Recommend Drone Registry

    Triangulating the transmitting signal really is the only way they'll be able to catch the real problem pilots. But that take time and special equipment. In most cases the idiot will have landed (or crashed) long before the equipment is deployed.

    FAA Task Force To Recommend Drone Registry

    For now, it's supposed to be free. But as we all know, eventually there will be a fee associated with it regardless of what they tell us. It may even have a fee right off the bat due to that way some FAA laws are written where they actually require a $5 fee for registering aircraft.

    FAA Task Force To Recommend Drone Registry

    Actually the current recommendation from this task-force was for the pilot to be registered and not the individual drone. The pilot would receive their own unique ID number that would need to be affixed to each drone they own that exceeds 250 grams in weight. Again, simply not affixing a...

    FAA Task Force To Recommend Drone Registry

    Based on what I've read so far, the registration will simply require a sticker with your registration number be affixed to the multi-rotor. The idiots flying these things where they don't belong will simply either not register, or if they do, they will not affix a registration number to it. So...

    5.25 bay mesh covers

    Thank Ryun. That site's definitely a bookmark worthy site. I already ordered the ones from Performance PCs and they arrived today. The Akust fit almost perfectly. Slightly loose fitting. When I say "slightly", I mean so slight that if they came with the case I'd think they were designed for it...

    5.25 bay mesh covers

    Thanks. They were cheap enough I ordered two of each. Based on pics, if the Akust don't fit, it looks like I'll be able to work something out with the Corsairs via some form of friction fit.

    5.25 bay mesh covers

    Hey all. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find two 5.25 drive bay mesh covers that would fit a Silverstone SG02. I have been searching for weeks but all I could find are the Lian Li covers and based on my past experience with Lian Li, they are not designed for non-Lian Li cases and...

    Apple Warns Against Jailbreaking

    Wasn't able to edit my post. I just wanted to add that rooting/jailbreaking is not illegal. However, in most, if not all, cases it is against the carriers rules and can result in them terminating your service (and charge an ETF if your under contract). Unlocking is NOT illegal if you're...

    Apple Warns Against Jailbreaking

    Rooting / Jailbreaking is simply giving you access to the root directory of the phone so you can install, modify, remove any software. The phone is still locked to the carrier you purchased it from. Unlocking is enabling the phone to be used on other carriers. You're unlocking the lock to a...

    Windows 8 no scraight to desktop boot?

    The whole Windows 8 hate is blown out of proportion IMO. I have a link below I found in a quick search that shows just how difficult it is to get to the desktop in Win 8. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcUHBYAS_n0 One thing the video doesn't mention is when at the desktop, to get back...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    Yes this is normal. It is actually recommended that you load optimized defaults, save, reboot and then make your customized settings after flashing your BIOS. I've actually had instances in the past, although very uncommon, where not doing this has caused odd and buggy behavior until loading...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    The first thing I would do is compare the serial number on the mobo against the serial number on the box. They should match. If they don't I'd return the board immediately.

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    For my setup, I use an Antec Kuhler 920 to cool my CPU. Since it draws more than 1 amp I can't plug it into the CPU fan header on the P8Z77-v Pro so I have it plugged into the PSU. I have the CPU monitoring in the BIOS turned off.

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    Raja, I believe I read in this thread that even with just Fan Xpert, a user was still experiencing random shutdowns. What if it's a conflict with reading the CPU fans RPM? If Fan Xpert gets a zero RPM reading from the CPU fan, does it have a feature to shutdown the PC? If not, does the mobo...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    I just wanted to provide an update to my random shutdown problem. It's been almost 60 hours since I removed the AI Suite software and have not had a random shutdown. I believe I resolved my issue. Based on discussions in this thread, I believe it was due to a conflict between the AI Suite...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    For testing I would suggest "rip it all out" in order to fully rule out the AI Suite. [edit] as of this edit (6/6/2012 2:05 am EDT) my PC has been up for 24 hours without issue since uninstalling the AI Suite. I'll be leaving it on overnight again.

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    For me, this is accurate. I run AIDA so that explains the false alarms. So far, since I've uninstalled AI Suite I have not had a random shutdown. Up time as of this writing is 13:48. I don't plan on rebooting or shutting down until I'm confident the problem is resolved. Perhaps multiple...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    I was getting a lot of false alarms regarding my case fans with the AI Suite. The way my case is, I can easily see the fans at any time. As soon as I would receive an error stating a fan was at 0 RPM I would look at it and clearly see it was operating fine. These false alarms are one of the...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    It could have been coincidence since this problem only just started for me yesterday but I uninstalled the AI Suite II software and left my PC on all night. Woke up this morning and it was still on and did NOT reboot. Now to see if it stays on all day too

    I am having the same random shutdown problem as Hendrix83, laukinisvilkas and bitgod. System specs are in my signature. The PC has been up and running for a few days now and the shutdown problem only started today. Twice so far. Once when the PC was idle and I was out at the store. When I...

    Need New Case - Strict Size Requirements

    My goal is to find a case that will fit within the measurements I provided. I already looked into the GD04 and GD05. They would work great if it weren't for the front USB and audio port (based on illustrations in the manual for the cases). I would have to remove them in order to fit the...

    Need New Case - Strict Size Requirements

    Thanks for the advice. I will be migrating all my components over so if a case comes with a PSU it will be replaced with my Corsair anyway. In my research I saw posts about that Chiefmax case. The problem is, I wasn't able to find sufficient pictures of inside the case from enough angles to...
