    Israel stages Holocaust survivor beauty pageant

    What is this about being forbidden from shooting down fallacious ideas? I've never been informed of this.

    Israel stages Holocaust survivor beauty pageant

    El oh el. Back on topic, I think beauty pageants are already stupid, and this one is particularly dumb.

    Depression and school

    Well, this turned into quite the debate, hasn't it? A few things need to be made clear. The school isn't making students vote for or against the expulsion. The student community decided they thought it was unfair to expel him and showed it via the Student Parliament. The depressed student has...

    Depression and school

    Well, the vote has been passed by the Student Parliament that he shouldn't be kicked out. Unfortunately, it seems that the School Board does not care whether the clear majority of the students are against the expulsion, they say he's irresponsible and ungrateful for the comprehension the school...

    Depression and school

    He's already shown a note. Which is why I was slightly hesitating to present the vote.

    Depression and school

    That's not how it works. But The Parliament has enough influence to decide against the decision I just needed the opinion of a few other people. I will present the idea to the other members and we'll vote on it Monday. But I'm wondering how to bring it up with the Board. While the...

    Depression and school

    Hey, been a while since I posted, hasn't it? Let me put you guys in context: There's this person at my High School who has been in a severe depression (confirmed by doctor/psy) for a few months. It has obviously interfered with their school work. From what I was told, that person did not give...

    Hardware Buy Or Build?

    First of all, forget that CPU. Get an i5-2500k, overclock it and be on your merry way. There is no way that CPU is worth it. Second, unless you plan on playing several instances of a game at the same time, save yourself the cash and get 8Gb of RAM. Third, SLI/Crossfire is only really worth it if...

    Gaming Router question

    I have no access to the router with the access to the internet. None whatsoever. It is in a different building. I receive the connection by an antenna attached to the PC and would like to use the free Ethernet port to hook up the second router to the network and broadcast a wireless signal that...

    Gaming Router question

    Hello, I'm away from my home and I have a quick question. If I have a PC connected to a wireless network that I do not have access to physically via an antenna and an old linksys router, is there a way to extend that wireless signal using the router I have? If so, how?

    Gaming Will this config make a good gaming rig?

    Cooler: Normally, if you buy the retail version of the CPU, it comes with a cooler. Referred to as "stock cooler". PSU: http://pcpartpicker.com/ca/part/ocz-power-supply-ocz550fty ----------Altough it may not be better in wattage, this thing is modular and good quality...

    Gaming Will this config make a good gaming rig?

    This seems pretty good. But if you aren't going to overclock, the aftermarket HSF might be a little overkill. Don't get me wrong, temps will be much lower, but the stock cooler is made to handle the stock clock speed and should keep the CPU temperature well below critical point. And that 30$...

    Gaming Are these good parts for a gaming computer?

    I am well aware of that. But that is just a drive I got him until the prices go down a bit. Otherwise it would have meant sacrificing budget on the GFX/CPU/Mobo, which is really not a good idea. I have to disagree here. While the high end i5/i7 CPUs are undeniably better than any AMD processor...

    While on the subject, I'm also back. They aren't mutating DNA. They are using the cloning technique we've been using for years. Implanting the genes you want to duplicate into a zygote, replacing the original nuclei.
