Office nerf war update:
Geneva conventions abandoned due to irreconcilable differences. War regularly breaks out around 4:00PM, with potshots being taken regularly throughout the afternoon.
Another coworker has been drawn in, packing a massive [url=http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/99vsPA73XlY/hqdefault.jpg]Centurion[/url], and our CTO occasionally lobs rounds from [url=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ivUCnOurxqg/UBZVXWN5tuI/AAAAAAAAD54/jUS7-a8sXW8/s1600/as-zcruvebow_0.jpg]a slingshot bow[/url].
Combat has shifted to trench warfare. I sit safe, for now, behind an array of monitors, my legs protected by a whiteboard. My exposed left flank is open only to a neutral manager.
I feel sorry for the guy sitting in the crossfire. He's directly opposed to two armed programmers, with myself able to attack his rear flank. He's tried setting up spare chairs to cover his rear, but it doesn't help much.
I plan to construct a blowgun over the weekend. As yet I am undecided if it will use the larger Magnum rounds, or the traditional darts.
I suspect one coworker of planning to purchase an additional [url=http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121124144617/nerf/images/8/8d/Elitestrongarmpackaging.jpg]Strongarm[/url] for dual-wielding. Another is plotting to remove the air restrictors from his.
In the Office Nerf Wars, the only real winners are the arms dealers, and the real loser is our productivity.

Some companies offer this as an optional thing nowadays.

[QUOTE=garychencool;43704013]my friend has that resolution in 15.6 inches, from afar it's fine but when I'm actually using it I see all of the pixels...
well if you bad that resolution, wouldn't the makers use.. 1280x600?
like isn't a reason why they use that is to make the laptop build cheaper?[/QUOTE]

Oh good
Can someone please help me? I'm getting a lot of BSOD's recently, like 3 in the past 24 hours. I just built my desktop (about a month ago) and it was working fine until these random BSOD's popped up, all the the name "multiple_irp_complete_requests". It'd be great if someone could help me, thanks.
looks like driver issues, have you updated anything in the past day or so?
Do we have any bored web devs here?
I didn't renew SyntheticHorizon since that site just didn't end up feeling right for me. But I still have hosting until 2016. So I'd like to make a landing page for SirCrest.tv which will have a link to a blog, then social links and maybe a simple listing of some recent videos.
A very basic idea. You can put your name on the site with a link to your work and site if you wish and I can plug your name in a video when I talk about it. It's just I purchased 3 years of hosting for the site and I feel like I just wasted it by abandoning the blog after 3-4 months and I plan on keeping the SirCrest.tv name for a very long time since it's tied to emails and some promotional stuff I worked on.
Not looking for any animations or anything just something functional. Should be relatively easy for some people to do. And while I have... no money I can promote you in any way I can through my channels. If anyone is interested please send me a message and I can sort out the information and login data on bluehost and the dns.

Update drivers (includeing mouse and keyboard, if you have something fancy)
Check the event viewer for suspicious events that happened right before the BSOD.
Upload the BSOD Mini dump (C:/Windows/Minidump)
Try checking out [URL="http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html"]BlueScreenView[/URL], it will show what applications and drivers were involved including some details among exporting them.

Hey guys, I was looking around the house and I found a keyboard and a spare bluetooth mouse for my android tablet and I'll use it in college
I'm now looking for any launchers w/ a keyboard-friendly interface, any suggestions?

you can use the arrow keys to move around or even the mouse to navigate just like using your finger. Although there is an app (forgot what it was though) that you can install where you can set your own key bindings (like the F-keys that seem to do absolutely nothing) to open whatever you want or possibly change settings like screen brightness and volume control
So I used the BlueScreenView tool, and it was caused by Microsoft things. Running Windows 8.1.

These 2 appeared all three times, though I'm not sure what they do/if I should uninstall them.
You most definitely should NOT uninstall them - they're the kernel and the TCP/IP driver, respectively.
[editline]28th January 2014[/editline]
Odd that the TCP/IP driver is throwing errors though - is your network hardware going bad?

If all 3 of the error reports are pretty much the same, you can most likely exclude a hardware problem.
A 3rdparty driver that touches the TCP Stack is most likely causing this problem, for example:
- A firewall or Anti-Virus (norton especially)
- A networking adapter
- Half-Open connection patch.
- A VPN adapter.
If you upload your minidump, i can run it through WinDbg and tell you more.

I uninstalled Hamachi, which was in one of the dumps, and so far it's looking okay. But if something happens again, I'll be sure to upload the minidump. Thanks for all your help guys!

Would 4 Intel 530 SSD in Raid 0 get close to 1GB/s ? The controller I'm using is a Marvell 9230. I'm using 2 Intel 520s in RAID 0 and only getting about 500MB/s read and write.

Speaking from logical thinking but would speed be limited by how fast the controller can compute and transfer?

PCIe 2.0 x2 only has like 5GBit of throughput, which is ~600MB/s, which is probably why your performance has been so poor.

It also has extremely good controller compression a lack of SATA's fairly considerable overhead, and no overhead from the RAID controller as well as potential internal bandwidth issues it may have.

What system are you running the benchmarks for your setup on? And what are you using to test it?

Patch cable replaced. Gigabit ethernet restored.
