TechNews - Best Graphics Cards For The Money - tech|
| (hx) 04:57 AM CEST - Aug,13 2012 | Paul Steed, best known for his 3D modeling work at id
software working on classics like Quake and Wing Commander, has passed away unexpectedly. Steed
had an incredibly diverse career. He is perhaps best known for his 3D
modeling work, but he was also an author, a console developer, a game
developer with companies like Electronic Arts and id, a keynote speaker
at the 2008 Game Developer's Conference, and he also ran his own game
development company, Exigent. God bless and comfort his family during
this tragic time. He will surely be missed, not just for his astounding
contributions he has made in the world of gaming, but more so for the
man he was to those who loved him.
- Best Graphics Cards For The Money: August 2012 - After
more than a month missing in action, the Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition is
finally available. We've seen a few price adjustments recently, but the real news is the rumored Radeon HD 7990,
GeForce GTX 660 Ti, and GeForce GTX 650.
- The Intel SSD 910 Review - From a
performance perspective, the Intel SSD 910 is an absolute beast.
Pricing is also extremely competitive with other high-end
enterprise PCIe offerings. Intel comes in at $5/GB for its top of the
line enterprise SSD, despite the 710 being introduced at over $6 per
GB. If you really want to get nostalgic, the old X25-E launched at over
$15/GB. The cost per GB is much lower if you take into account how much
NAND Intel is actually putting on board the 910. With 56 x 32GB 25nm
MLC-HET die on a single 800GB 910, you're talking about around $2.23
per GB.
- The Intel SSD 330 Review (60GB, 120GB, 180GB) - The
biggest problem with Intel's SSD 330 really stems from the
limitations of its SandForce controller. Performance with
incompressible (or software encrypted) data is hardly competitive. As
an unencrypted OS/application drive the 330 is great, but if you're
planning on using software encryption or will be primarily storing
photos, videos and music you'll want to opt for a drive based on a
different controller technology. In the end it's good to see Intel
playing aggressively on price. The 330 is likely one of the best
SandForce drives on the market, and not having to pay a premium for it
is pretty awesome.
- CyberLink: Thanks for No DVD Playback in Windows 8
- Microsoft's decision to not support DVD playback in the
Windows 8 Media Player has generally not been very well received by
prospective customers. There is at least one exception to Microsoft's
decision, a software company that is happy for the change and turned it
into a money making opportunity. Taiwan-based company CyberLink claims
it has secured deals with a number of PC makers to have three of its
software products pre-installed on Windows 8 devices.
- Microsoft talks about converting PDF files to Word
files in Word - The
goal of PDF Reflow is to convert PDF content into Word
documents that contain the original layout intent and that flow
correctly across pages when you edit or read. In other words, when you
convert a PDF in Word, the elements in the document should act as if
you created them in Word. A list from a PDF, for instance, will act
just like any other list in Word: hit Enter at the end of a bulleted
paragraph and a new bullet will be created.
- New Virus Linked To Stuxnet Found -
Kaspersky Lab ZAO said that the newly-discovered virus shared similarities
in terms of structure and operation with Flame, a program
aimed at vacuuming information from target computers. Flame in turn
shared similarities with Stuxnet, a program experts believe was
designed to sabotage Iran's disputed nuclear program.
- uTorrent becomes ad-supported torrent client - The
creator of the popular torrent client uTorrent has announced that the
upcoming release of uTorrent will have 'in-client offers.'
In other words, people will have to deal with ads when running
uTorrent. Users who pay for the uTorrent Plus version won't
have to put up with the ads, but that will cost USD $24.95.

- Flexible Batteries Are Finally Here! - This
unique battery was put together by Professor Keon Jae Lee and
his team and uses flexible lith-ion technology that can bend and warp
without adversely affecting the battery life or quality in any way

- 17-year-old Brittany Wenger develops AI to
diagnose cancer - A
17-year-old girl from Florida has spent the last several
years of her life developing an 'artificial brain' that can diagnose
cancer. Using various computer-programming languages, Brittany Wenger
created a cloud-based artificial neural network that can assess tissue
samples for signs of breast cancer.
- Researchers Develop Soft Meshworm Robot with
Earthworm-Like Movement - The
Meshworm robot is able to move along nearly any surface the
same way that a worm does; it scrunches up its body, then it extends
it. This crawling motion is referred to as peristalsis and while it may
not be very fast, it does allow it to navigate through tough terrain
where wheels or legs may not work.
- NASA's Green Lander Crashes and Burns - NASA's
new "green" lander crashed and burned after a
not-so-amazing 20ft flight.

- The Matrix Remaked (SFM) - This
video is based on "rescuing morpheus" scene in the
fiction-based movie "the matrix":
- Order Up - Viral Video of the Week -
Red Giant Software specializes in visual
effects plugins and it shows in this three minute video that
is making the rounds on the Internet.
- Unseen Apple TV commercial
footage from 1983
surfaces - On the first day of the 2012 Summer Olympics, NBC
aired three new Apple television ads, each featuring an
unnamed male Apple "Genius" trying to help people with problems on
their Mac products.
- Red Dawn Trailer 2012 - A
city in Washington state awakens to the surreal sight of foreign
paratroopers
dropping from the sky - shockingly, the U.S. has been invaded and their
hometown is the initial target. Quickly and without warning, the
citizens find themselves prisoners and their town under enemy
occupation. Determined to fight back, a group of young patriots seek
refuge in the surrounding woods, training and reorganizing themselves
into a guerilla group of fighters. Taking inspiration from their high
school mascot, they call themselves the Wolverines, banding together to
protect one another, liberate their town from its captors, and take
back their freedom.

Nice, but why does the minigun eject bullets that have not been fired yet (instead of empty shells)? | |
| Kompressor | (10:14 PM CEST - Aug,13 2012 ) | | Of course, nothing "green" works. | |
