On the opposite end of the storage spectrum as my last post, today’s topic is USB Flash drives. Actually, the post is about “10 Nifty Tricks You Can Do With Your USB Keydrive” I came across over at lifehacker. On the list is everything from speeding up Windows Vista to encrypting an entire hard drive, […]
This sort of exploit is harder to pull off because of the need for user action. But, as PT Barnum used to say “there is a sucker born every day.” Maybe that should be every hour. In any case, Secunia has issued a highly critical warning in regards to how some Photoshop […]
If the headline above made you cringe, you know how I felt earlier this evening. When I got home from a baseball tournament I participated in all day, I was entreated to the news that my 120gb External Hard Drive (Fantom Drive if you must know) had fallen off my desk while a member of […]
Sweet; it looks like European astronomers have hit the cosmic treasure stash. They’ve found one of the first planets in known space that has the ability to sustain life.

Dell, as a company, has always done well. Sometimes I have been irked by their computer design and lines. But they know how to run […]
You know, one of my favorite websites for browser shopping (Internet equivalent of window shopping) is undoubtedly ThinkGeek. “Stuff for Smart Masses” as they say; although, mostly it looks like stuff for smart… never mind. However, this doesn’t keep ThinkGeek from having some incredibly envious gear, such as the “Gadget Bag” I came across today. […]
NASA released the first photos from STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory). The amazing photos will allow scientists to be able to see solar events in magnitude. This will help them predict and follow future solar events and disturbances. Obviously, to see the 3-D effect you will need to have some 3-D glasses on hand.
If you’re bored out of your mind, why not watch a bunch of bots grapple with gravity? Change their numbers and gravity. Acrobots is pretty neat.
‘Ello, PaulTech faithful. Sorry I’ve been gone as of late. A nasty head-cold has been taking up space in my schedule; quite a bit of space, actually. In honor of this annoyance (I still am stuffed up in the head…), I’ve decided to do a write-up on some medical technology that will make it easier […]
