    It Is The “Clean Your Damn PC” Weekend

    Haha nice.. I just cleaned out my laptop 2 days ago, and I must say that I regret not having cleaned it sooner. My computer idles almost 10C cooler, while it's almost 20C cooler under load. Clean your computer!!

    University to Issue Freshmen iPads and MacBooks

    The school is actually Seton Hill, not Seton Hall. Seems like that article had that same typo in the title.

    I would've tried to overclock it.

    Don’t Copy That Floppy Gets 15-Year Update

    This is racist. They're demonizing the Asians by perpetuating the nerdy Asian with mohawk stereotype.

    Broadband Requests Far Exceed Amount Available

    1) 7 billion is clearly not enough to service the broadband needs of all the rural areas in the U.S. 2) We need MOAR MONIEZ. I vote to contract SK Telecom (Korean telecommunications conglomerate) to help us figure this shit out. I know it's a very different geographic situation here, but they...

    IE8 Trounces Firefox, Chrome in Security Test

    Aside from the sponsorship issue (lol@having test threats being tailored to individual browsers), what's the rate of false positives? I can create a browser that detects 100% of all and any threat by flagging every single site as malicious (about:home is a virus!). But personally, I could...

    Study Says Girls Game Less Than Boys

    Clearly, this study is flawed.

    Pirated Media Collection Costs Man $46K

    Jamie Thomas or whatever probably got hit with the much larger fees since legal fees are calculated in there. Considering that her case went through couple of trials, I'd imagine that figure to be significantly more than this man's. But of course, the obligatory "fuck the RIAA."

    6 Multiclient IM Apps to Chat About

    Gmail chat!! =) I used to use Pidgin for my IMing needs, but I decided to get a head start on the imminent cloud bandwagon. I'm using gmail chat for the time being, but I could easily see meebo or buddy.im taking over soon (or Google wave!). I do have to give a shout out to digsby, but my...

    Soon, You'll Have to Pay for Hulu

    OHS NOES! This is terrible news! This sucks because I totally can't go to one of their competitors and watch the shows for free instead.

    Jammie Thomas Gets New Lawyers

    yessss. I love people like this. It's one of the reasons why I want to be a lawyer... too bad they'd probably reject my services... even if I offer to do it for free.

    I wish my parents used this on me when I was a kid. Sigh

    Intel is Tonya Harding

    You know, I'd kind of have to agree with AMD on this one. Intel really screwed AMD over by buying several chip manufacturing plants that really limited AMD's ability to mass produce certain chips (I believe it was factories that produced 32nm chips). AMD was pretty much forced to stick with 45nm...

    Document Interoperability Initiative Drives Development of New Tools

    Why does this not comfort me? Microsoft has always neglected the compatibility issue of its newer formats with OOo. Why should I believe that they're changing now?
