Bought direct from EVGA. Check their websites, many of them offer them direct for sale. They may be out of stock so you'll have to do a notify.

I had to buy mine direct from the manufacturer for MSRP for a new build. Still cheaper than Newegg/Amazon/etc.

Correct, I'm too damn used to dealing with Apple stuff. It's also like another form of cancer, but a lot less pervasive and far more noticeable.

"Cisco" and "security issue" go together like peanut butter and chocolate. Knowing this, and with the knowledge that IOS is some form of arcane torture, leads me to wonder: why has…

>Looks like quite a feat to qualify a spacecraft power supply! It's actually a hell of a feat to get any kind of electronics certified for outer space use. The atmosphere we have b…

Fingerprints are not passwords or usernames. They're another form of authentication. Remember: MFA is a two-or-more combination of: something you know (password, pin, etc.), someth…

As I sardonically stated on Twitter, it's not a real vulnerability until it has a catchy name and logo. It's the newest node.js hipster pentesting tech.

Most portable filters will, actually. They've got fine enough filters to catch protocysts; they'll easily catch any metal contamination. What they don't get are smaller bacteria an…

I disable referers for all browsers. Firefox has them off completely, with Referer Control using a random one for Chrome. I only enable them for sites that absolutely need them (an…

Boiling is what did it. Boiling is the most sure-fire way to disinfect water.

UV will kill most microbes, which is why things like the UV pens are good for purification. However you need to at least run it through a filter first to remove large particulate m…

Pretty much this. Law enforcement is trying to get their monetary share from crime (or "crime" depending upon how you look at it), and anything they can do to make that easier they…

Surprisingly, the CPU+mobo combo I just bought for a new build was cheaper from a local Microcenter than Amazon. Plus, I could get it the same day (ordering it on Saturday night, I…

Good for you, you're an exception far removed from the rule.

Of course, if a S3 region gets nuked, it can have repercussions in other zones too. Remember the S3 outage?

>salary negotiations This is an obvious one. I've dealt with a ton of recruiters over the years. If they're not willing to discuss a range upfront with you (amongst other things), …

You clearly haven't been paying attention or reading about how this works. Heartbleed was touted as being bad by those that didn't read too far into it. You could scrape memory, su…

What are you talking about? We've seen working POCs since last week. This isn't "largely theoretical", this is an actively exploitable hole.

Symbiont. The word you're looking for is symbiont, not parasite. A symbiont lives in harmony with the host, exchanging something in exchange for the resource it consumes (in this c…

I'd disagree. I've been to both. Rural California has a very different mindset than say the rural parts of the Appalachians. Out there, there's a fierce push for independence and s…

Not the OP, but my take on it would be that every State is different from each other, and even within the State there's differences. Take a look at where I live, Texas. Dallas will…

Possibly. Given the number of competitors in the "adventure camera" business like Contour and a variety of Chinese manufacturers, they're going to end up taking hits on it. Their c…

No, that's just correlation. Email can be spam, but not all email is spam.

This is because Mailgun is in the practice of spam. The number of spam campaigns I've seen with Mailgun as the conduit is high, second only to Mailchimp.
