Putting aside the debate over whether the  I in Into is capitalized or not, the movie was terrific.

No spoilers in this post.

Having managed to avoid spoilers going into the theater I was surprised again and again as the movie progressed. It’s very much a character driven story.  Sure, there are some great special effects and some surprisingly detailed depictions of Earth in the 23rd century (more than I think we’ve ever gotten in a Star Trek film).

Because of the massi...

I'm trying to install cursor FX based on your assertion that it is compatible with Windows 8 but when I start it I get an error message saying that the operating system is incompatible. I deactivated my symantec sercurity - didn't help. Can you help?

at least on Windows 7, if CursorFX theme is turned on, then Adobe Flash internal dialogs are unusable

tried in Opera, MSIE x86, MSIE x64

I met it when was asked for help - flash was configured to ask for WebStorage and on YouTube asked if domain s.ytimg.com can save data locally - as a result no YouTube video could be watched!

This is a handy little program for those who wish to modify the W8 boot. As far as I can tell, it should live peacefully with Stardock’s W8 programs, but if not, it can be saved on a stick for times you’ll be asked to fix someone’s W8 computer. It’ll give you rapid access to legacy settings which you’ll need.

I published another article today before I discovered this gem through gHacks (thanks, gHacks!). Hope the Wiz and others find this useful.

Well, I didn’t buy W8, and am not using it, but there are folks here who do so, “This Bud’s for you!”.

One of W8’s features is an amazingly rapid boot. Actually, it’s a “hybrid boot”: a cross between hibernation and booting.

But, let’s say you’re having a problem which you need “Safe Mode” to solve. How can you do it in such a rapidly booting environment? F2 and F8 time periods are reduced to really tiny periods. According to the MSDN blog, “the interval wherein Windows wai...

It’s been a super busy week, and we have a nice long holiday weekend coming up.  We’ve had some great skins come in, so I wanted to take a moment to feature a few.  As always, hit the galleries to see all the other skins that came in that I didn’t have time to feature.

I'm working on my first skin in years... in fact, I haven't even used WindowBlinds nor Skin Studio in at least 2 years. After staring at Aero for that amount of time, I decided to go on the search for something a little different. I had an idea in my head of what I wanted, and I found a lot of themes that were close... but they all had something about them that I didn't like. So... why not try my hand at making my own once again?

Cool story, right bro?

Anyway, I'm sat here ...

I have a gingerbread android phone (Droid 3). But due to many reasons, I was unable/unwilling to use it with full potential. I have an Ipad too, but I literally use it only when I am doing exercising on a treadmill for web browsing.

 

 

But things have changed and I need a new smartphone now. So... after good amount of research and stuffs (wow, just when did Nokia go down? Weren't they no.1 in cellphone world?) I bought Samsung Galaxy S4 32gb Unlocked. It is coming tomorro...

NSS Labs surveyed the five browsers with the most market share for security against “socially engineered” malware. The browsers tested were Apple, Google, Microsoft, Mozilla and Opera.

The test is aimed at mobile devices (however, syncing will affect the non-mobile machines as well).

The results were pretty amazing:

  I had a terrible and wonderful thing happen to me 2 weeks ago now! What I thought was my Monitor dying turned out to be a dying graphics card.

 

I bought one of the "New Technology" monitors with "IPS" technology included. My monitor came from "Asus" and to be honest, I wouldn't buy from them again because they provided No driver for their monitor and No "Color Profile" software.

 

I'm still waiting for my new graphics card to arrive so for now, all of my bri...
