Lazy Posts Are Lazy...
I was writing a huge article on AMD’s new FX CPUs and the Bulldozer architecture, but I got half way through it and discovered it was already longer than anything I’ve ever posted on here. Also, while I covered a general overview, it was missing some key details, certain ideas weren’t properly expressed, and a lot of it was condensed. It was at that point I realized two things....

Fuck Steam
Steam is running a huge sale on tons of games for the weekend. Over 60% of the games on my wish-list are only 10 dollars a piece. I don’t have a dime to my name right now. Fuck you Steam, punching me when I’m down with huge banner ads. You know what? I don’t need Crysis, or Portal 2, or Bad Company 2, or Amnesia, or Dirt 2, or Just Cause 2, or Mirror’s Edge. Yeah,...

This Is The Greatest Computer Hardware Review... →
…and I randomly ran across them the other day. They are not very high in google’s search results, in fact most of their reviews never show up in google’s search results, however from what I’ve seen they are more interesting and informed than Tom’s Hardware and Overclocker’s Club combined.

((Lost 2 followers... how pleasent. *shrug* Oh...
((Celestia has lost roughly the amount of followers she’s been gaining for the last month. I’ve lost something like 100 followers and gained a little over that. People seem very indecisive about following me. =P As long as the trend stays even and does not plunge I’m okay with it.))

You Tube is great... just great...
YouTube has offered me the option to earn money from my videos. The only problem with that is that the YouTube guidelines border on overzealous at best. Any video containing any copy written material can’t be used to earn money. Further more, any video containing that material can be taken down at their discretion.
My Youtube channel is almost 100% copy written material, from product...

The New PC & The Future
My replacement computer parts arrived safely and in working order from Newegg on Monday. Ever since I have been juggling free time to dedicate to constructing this monster system.
The whole assembly took 3 hours on Monday. Instead of using the stock AMD heatsink for my Phenom II x4 965, I forked over some extra cash for a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus. The new heatsink was a concern due to...

MSDNAA is Awesome
After upgrading all of my computers to windows 7 earlier this year, I ran into a unique problem. A specific device I have, a PDA, requires the version of Active Sync specific to XP in order to work. Problem is all my XP computers were OEM and didn’t have install discs. So I was tasked with finding an install disc for an essentially dead OS, legally.
Impossible you say?
Well, as it turns...

A Perfect Summary of AMD's New Bulldozer CPU
A perfect summary of Bulldozer, as an evolution in CPU design, a reemergence of the legendary FX brand, and a successor to the famous performance-per-dollar king that is the Phenom II.
It’s like this:
The driver represents AMD’s pride, reputation, and future stock price.

I’m beginning to see a very very clear and extremely disappointing trend in these reviews as I read them. I’m sure anyone taking even a cursory glance at the graphs in these reviews should understand what I mean.
Still, I’m going to try and find at least one more review before I say more.
((…I don’t see that much difference between...
