    Bad first semester of college grades...

    From my experience low grades only impact your ability to get scholarships and the prospect of graduate studies. Also, there are some employers that look at grades at recruitment but that is pretty rare from what I have seen. Once you get your degree and get your first job, the grades that you...

    Netbook/Laptop Advice

    I have the model before this (X120e) and it is fantastic. This is about half the price of a mac yet it does everything that you are looking for just fine. One of my problems with macs is that if it is lost, stolen, or broken at school you are out a lot of money. But with a cheaper, yet very...

    Physics question

    I think that you may be referring to Einstein's Theory of Relativity which talks about how space and time are curved. My discipline does not touch on it, but I do know that it is extremely complex once you get into the details of it. How much do you need to know for your project?

    Tablet for University

    It depends on the way you take notes and the way your classes are structured. I take a lot of engineering and math classes so my notes involve a lot of numbers, symbols, and diagrams. Thus, I use notebooks since typing out the symbols on the computer would take too much time. However, if I had...

    cheeting in skyrim

    I have used the kill command and the unlock command to get out of a couple jams and I have still been unlocking the achievements as I go along. From what I have seen it does not matter.

    Poll: Are You Cancelling Your Credit Card over the Steam Hack?

    My understanding is that they still accessed the steam database which has info from the main steam stuff like your address if you paid with credit card. But it seems like there is a general consensus that if you change your passwords you should be fine from what has been said so far.

    Poll: Are You Cancelling Your Credit Card over the Steam Hack?

    I tried making a poll when I made the thread but it did not show up. I also tried editing the post to add a poll but the option to was not there...

    Poll: Are You Cancelling Your Credit Card over the Steam Hack?

    The thing that bugs me is that we can change our passwords all we want, but the hackers may have all of our credit card numbers and can buy whatever they want with them. If the credit cards are compromised then steam guard and password changing will not be able to help.

    Poll: Are You Cancelling Your Credit Card over the Steam Hack?

    Will you be cancelling your credit card knowing that the encrypted card data on Steam has been accessed?

    Trailers: Team Fortress 2: Meet the Medic

    I liked the little jab at Serious Sam at the end when he was standing on top of all of the dead soldiers.

    Escapist Podcast: DRM, Piracy & PC Gaming

    Really cool but interesting how it was half talking about the actual topics and half talking about Zero Punctuation.

    I think I'm psychic?

    Deja Vu all the way! I used to get that all the time as well. If you think that you are psychic though here is a challenge. When you have your 'screenshot' in the morning, write down exactly what is going to happen and where it will happen. If your predictions match up with reality...

    The Big Picture: PC Gaming Is Dead - Long Live PC Gaming!

    So long as Valve keeps offering Steam sales, I'm probably going to be on the PC for years to come. I've got the rig to run the games even better than a console while taking advantage of all of the features that a PC brings (like the Steam Cloud, instant updates, free online, etc).

    Angry Birds Dev Foresees Doom for Consoles

    As consumers, so long as we continue buying the products that we enjoy, most likely, companies will continue to supply them. If Call of Duty is any indication, there is a VERY strong audience for games over $5.

    What's the big deal about PC games?

    Steam sales all the way! I seriously haven't payed full price for a game in about a year. Most of my games were purchases from 50%-75% off the already reduced PC price (when compared to consoles). Of course, all of the games I got were about a year old which is fine so long as you haven't...
