    Windows 10

    You can still disable Cortana and make updates only notify, but not download automatically. http://www.askvg.com/tip-disable-cortana-and-bing-search-results-in-windows-10/ Method 4. Same place where you edit Update.

    Building a monster

    It's a software he developed for banks in Scandinavia. Initially it ran on one core, but he made it run with full multi-threading support. They don't need anything from the GPU, I've built them dedicated CUDA machines before, and he even said 16GB of RAM would be enough. But I want four dimms...

    Building a monster

    Windows 10

    Windows 10 with O&O ShutUp10 and Group Policy editing on the Anniversary Update is working wonders for me right now. A notification came and said updates were ready to be downloaded. It's been 2 days and several restarts, and it still hasn't downloaded them without my approval. As for privacy...

    Forcing YT to play videos in the new player

    YouTube (and many other sites) are running segmented test runs of various things. For example the layout of the site etc. The transparent player you are referring to has been standard for me for more than a few months, with no extensions touching anything YT related. I'm not sure if it helps...

    Is BIOS spyware a thing?

    UEFI can be infected with some pretty nasty NSA-level rootkits. But we're talking very high end, very nasty stuff. Doubt you'd see it on a personal computer.

    Yep, exclusively. Not touching Home ever :)

    Windows 10

    I just installed it on laptop yesterday (thank you MS for actually giving us direct version-specific ISO downloads again!) Looks fine, they moved some more settings to the new Metro UI settings, which I can get used to I guess. The most worrying by far would be "Active Hours", with a max of 12...

    Windows 10

    Don't get me wrong, I love the much better native support and installation of LAN, Chipset, MEI, RST and audio drivers. These don't need to be updated often, but when I've told it "No (Your device might not work as expected)" and can't stop/hide/cancel an Update, it really makes me mad :)

    Windows 10

    I didn't look at the version numbers of my own install, but I tried comparing the numbers from CCC to the release notes online, and the numbers weren't even the same formatting. But it still works, and I need it tomorrow (LAN PC :D) so I left it be.

    Windows 10

    I always install everything that can be installed offline before even connecting the Windows 10 to the internet. It might make "sense" to let Windows install it first via Update, then DDU. But what really made me mad is that I used the latest driver. Like, AMD stopped making new drivers for the...

    Windows 10

    That's really nice, Darren. Hope it stays. Yesterday I installed Windows 10 while offline -> chipset+LAN driver -> told it to stop installing device drivers automatically -> used DDU (also sets some settings to stop automatic driver installation) -> Installed latest AMD driver -> Connected LAN...

    Windows 10

    Are you running a non-insider preview? Smart people (Wendell from Tek Syndicate) said it's possible in the preview, but M$ would remove it in actual release. It's super easy to disable now for sure.

    Windows 10

    I hope Cortana still doesn't work in Denmark. Read that they've made it near impossible to disable, even with Group Policy editing.

    Screen recorder

    If she has a newer NVIDIA or AMD card, the drivers can record gameplay (NVIDIA can record desktop too, not sure about AMD). I used to use Fraps, even bought the full version, but haven't used it since ShadowPlay (NVIDIA) became viable.

    I am getting so tired of Win10 start button stop working

    This is a common problem, even if you do a clean install. I've had it on numerous PCs. Right clicking the start menu always works, and you can restart from there. Waiting for Anniversary Update (August I think) to go back to 10.

    Socket Intel News

    I'd consider a second GTX 1080 a 'large purchase' as well. One with even less value than the first. Obviously different strokes for different folks, but I always felt bad spending my parents money, even though I knew it didn't matter. I've literally never been in the situation where I need to...

    Socket Intel News

    My dad is rich as balls, but he said something to me when I was very young that I still remember to this day. "Just because you have a lot of money, doesn't mean you have to spend a lot of money". The way I interpret it is basically to look for value in the things you buy.
