Pay a nice guy $4 and you get your Windows 7 Start Menu back forever. Perfect tool and has been installed on hundreds of Win10 boxes to 'ease the transition' from the clunky, ever-changing Windows 10 Start Menu. http://startisback.com/

After a great deal of investigation on the best non-commercial mesh Wi-Fi solutions, Eero landed at the top of my stack. I've been very pleased with its functionality and simplicity for the last 2 years. I sure hope AMZN treats Eero as a separate entity and doesn't start creeping into my life.

The real headline I hope to see: Microsoft Makes Final Push to Rid World of Windows 10

"Algorithms Cannot Completely Model the Real World" Shhh. Don't let the Climate Scientists hear you.

What a great site! You guys ROCK! Kyle - you and your crew run the best friggin' enthusiast, high-tech site on the web. Rock on guys!

Updating title to plural for accuracy: Chinese Engineers Steal Technology from American Firms to Smuggle to China

Neat. Bring back LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales, then I'll jump for joy.

But it doesn't go both ways. Even using Google, Amazon and MSFT, China has isolated their own clouds, data and server infrastructure so they retain control (encryption keys, physical servers, etc.). Demands for U.S. data via a Chinese subsidiary aren't the same. Your example is very different...

The WSJ (paywall) has an excellent opinion piece siding with the U.S. as well. "In Morrison (2010) and RJR Nabisco, Inc. (2016), the Supreme Court developed a two-step analysis to determine if a law applies overseas. ...If not, the statute is presumed not to be extraterritorial. " The U.S has...

Is it shaped like a TURBO button?

Washington State. First they took our plastic bags. Then they took our straws. Now they're taking our phones.

As someone with 4+ Z87 and Z97's - all on Windows 7 with plenty of life left in them - it looks like EVGA might do us a solid: https://forums.evga.com/Attention-EVGA-please-update-users-of-older-motherboards-for-your-BIOS-security-patches-m2747985.aspx

PRO TIP: Any consumer product with the term 'Cloud' anywhere in it's name: Avoid. Reasons? Too many to list.

While my first instinct is to mock those who drink pathogen-filled water, I wonder if it is actually the key to our evolution. It may be part of an evolutionary process that is normally slow and takes thousands and thousands of years. But every few hundred millennia, evolution leaps forward...

You guys run a great shop here. One of the best sites on the web. Intelligent discussion. Excellent troll management. Great humor. Biting sarcasm. Merry Christmas to all.

<sniff, sniff> Desperation anyone?

For whatever reason, I cannot block him. It suggests I report any inappropriate posts instead - but never let's me confirm the block and execute it.

Beat me to it. Install BK Disabler. Does not require root. Disabled the two Bixby services so the button does nothing. Works even when new Bixby updates break the many Bixby-disabling apps. Perfect. No need for a case.

I hear people totally love increased glare and reflections.

I'm all for this. As long as we can electronically limit the amount of money the government spends beyond what they take in.

3 NON-SPOILER reasons the latest installment fell flat: The musical score beyond the Main Title fell flat. The original Star Wars score had the lilt of sand whisping through the air on Tatooine, the lumbering sound of the Jawa Crawler, the whimsy and strength of Leia in Leia's Theme not to...

Solitaire! Finally a reason to move to Windows 10.

Since MSFT gutted TwC with their latest rounds of layoffs, it's good to see other groups cropping up to collaborate and raise the visibility of security issues. Like many things MSFT could have easily led by example, they have, again, squandered yet another opportunity.

Respectfully have to disagree. I was constantly perusing Raspberry PI and other basic computer options to start my kids off. But the choices and options were mind-boggling. Not just in hardware, but also *nix variants and versions. Sure, I pulled it off. But I couldn't imagine how a...

Received one of the first ones. It's absolutely incredible. Even with lots of prodding with other tools and code, my 6 and 8 year olds have never been more interested in computers and code. These people knocked it out of the park in terms of kids (and adult) friendly, great...

Bump! Still looking for one of these boards - stock, with no water-cooling added, please. Thanks!

Bump!

My EVGA x58 SLI LE died and I want to replace it with the exact or the next-best like model (not interested in any of the other EVGA X58 boards). I specifically need either the EVGA X58 SLI LE 141-BL-E757 or EVGA X58 SLI 3 131-GT-E767-TR PM if you've got a...

I finally settled on the solution. There wasn't anything I could build that would be as low-power as I wanted. And the growth and expansion capabilities would likely include motherboard upgrades and/or higher performance and greater capacity SCSI interfaces or sophisticated SATA/eSATA...

NO SOLUTION The final thing we tried was a heavily revised firmware to disable every aspect of UEFI instructions on the card - an even more dramatic hack than the first modified firmware. Not only did it not solve the problem, but it caused the PC to BSOD after returning from sleep with a...

Sorry it's happened to you to. But it seems we're not the only ones. See the threads I've seen on this exact issue; X58 motherboards with EVGA/NVidia reference cards: After being escalated through EVGA support and product managers, I've landed with the last possible contact in EVGA who has...

I thought this was [H]ard forum. You may have missed the "Large Format" part. They cost upwards of $3000. A $200 part is more cost-effective. http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/ProductCategory.do?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&oid=-16224 Existing 836XL already owned = $0 New Large Format...

I need a recommendation for a SCSI card that runs under the latest 64-bit Windows OSs that provides connectivity via a 50-pin external (SCSI-2 female) connector. I have a large-format scanner (Epson 836XL) that connects to an WinXP PC via an ancient Adaptec 2930CU SCSI adapter via a 50-pin...

No joy so far. Although EVGA Support has been great, the problem hasn't been solved. They even sent me an updated customized BIOS to disable the UEFI extensions in the video cards. Although the update applied successfully, it didn't resolve the problem. For reference, here is everything...

This is all excellent advice. @Fritzz - that link to volume limitations was excellent. @Unknown-One - excellent insights into various options and concerns with FlexRAID. Based on the feedback, it looks like I should use either Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials or Windows 8.1 with Storage...

Spoke with EVGA and they had this interesting insight: The 700 series of cards are the first to contain an UEFI BIOS that works perfectly with most modern motherboards (either those with UEFI BIOS's themselves - or at least the latest standard BIOS with the latest BIOS updates). But my EVGA...

I went gang-busters to narrow this down tonight. Short answer: The problem only occurs with either of the EVGA GTX 760 cards. Looks like I'll be giving the EVGA guys in SoCal a call in the morning to see how much I can stump them. Here's what I tried: Single EVGA GTX 760 card Swapped...

Manually turning on/off monitor doesn't resume display. Unplugging and re-plugging in monitor doesn't resume display. Various NVidia driver versions didn't solve the problem. Event Viewer shows successful resumes from Sleep (S3) with no errors or warnings. It looks just as if the video...
