    Eliminating RFI/EMI Interference from your Audio System

    I would get yourself something like this and figure out what exactly you need and where to place them to eliminate the interference. Also remember you should not have any problems when the HAM is not transmitting. As a HAM my self I can say I am listening >99% of the time, my vertical antenna is...

    SLI Dual Video Card Question

    I have been a fan of SLI for years but these days SLI is becoming diminishing returns. Unless you get your cards used often one current generation will outperform dual SLI configurations of one or two generations back for less $$$. In reality the CPU and RAM become the bottle neck before even...

    Do LEDs emit interference...

    Yeah, you will hear self proclaimed Audiophiles claiming they can hear this and that from things they do not understand...:confused: :rolleyes: The early generation of LED lighting, LED X-Mas lights and rope lights might create little noise on the power lines because they are a string of...

    Transit of Venus is happening today

    Well the fact that this will never happen again for over 100 years it is a once in a lifetime event makes it exciting. But you have to have seen it in person, not "on TV" or a webcast. My wife and I went to Paris to see the last one and we participated in a public event with our local...

    Fuel Prices

    You nailed it. No matter how much more drilling we do the prices will not come down because the oil companies are going to sell to the highest bidder. Anyone who says differently is either stupid or feeding you bullshit. It's a worldwide market now, our days of cheap gas are coming to...

    cant delete .trash-999

    have you tried from a terminal sudo chmod 777 .trash-999 and/or sudo chown newowner .trash-999 Then try to delete it. One of those two always seem to work for me when there is a file I can not access or whatever... Maybe empty the trash?

    We are cooking nice pork roast tonight. I did all the hard stuff last night making real enchiladas. Not the swimming in goo type you get with the combo #2 at your local Mexican restaurant, and not some enchilada casserole either. The family tradition is tamales on Christmas eve, but I...

    Dear AMD CEO, way to run your company into the ground

    I am sure they have some good cards but in my experience there is always some workaround for ATI users in many video games. My son's computer had an ATI card in it when the Orange Box came out. We had to roll back the drivers two revisions and run it in DirectX 7 mode to work around the...

    Dear AMD CEO, way to run your company into the ground

    I ditched ATI (now owned by AMD) over a decade ago and do not even consider them when looking for graphics cards. Remember the font cache bug using ATI in Windows 3.1? :eek: Seriously ATI never could write a driver properly. I had hope when AMD bought them, but in reality their support got...

    Comcast and I have finally come to terms.

    They seem plenty willing to lower my service level as that's the only options I ever get from Comcast to reduce my bill.

    You are lucky you live in an area with competition. I have tried several times throughout the years and Comcast has called my bluff every time They are willing to lose a customer more than I am willing to go without broadband. But they know my only other option is satellite and 640K DSL...
