| Explore 13.8 Billion Years Of History On YouTube With CrashCourse [Stuff to Watch] Posted: 01 Dec 2014 05:30 PM PST  It is commonly accepted that history began as soon as we started writing things down, but this is merely a metaphorical line in the sand. The last few thousand years of cave paintings and tabloid journalism have barely recorded a fraction of our planet’s long existence – so what about “big history”? CrashCourse aims to explore this often-neglected period of pre-history and attempts to explain what Douglas Adams referred to as “life, the universe, and everything.” The Big Bang “There are much broader historical questions in the story of the universe than can only be explored by zooming out to the ultimate scale.” The channel...

| Concerned About Copyright? A Guide For Legally Using Images On The Web Posted: 01 Dec 2014 10:00 AM PST  Every creation is copyrighted by default. If in doubt whether or not you can use it, ask the creator. If you cannot identify the copyright owner, better don’t use the material. And if you do use someone else’s work, whether with explicit permission or based on a generic license, be sure to credit your source. That’s copyright in a nutshell, but of course it’s much more complex than this.

| Will NVIDIA’s New Maxwell GPUs Revolutionize PC Gaming? Posted: 01 Dec 2014 09:00 AM PST  If you’ve been keeping an eye on the GPU market, you may have seen some new cards popping up, or even heard some hype about something called Maxwell. Maxwell is NVIDIA‘s new GPU architecture, and the basis of the latest NVIDIA cards. Maxwell is a successor to the ‘Kepler’ architecture that previously encompassed the most powerful cards on the market (including NVIDIA‘s much lauded Titan). Four new cards are out based on the architecture, including the GTX 750, the GTX 750 Ti, the GTX 970, and the GTX 980. Maxwell is a pretty significant departure from past GPU designs in a...

| These 3 Types Of Lists Will Help You Be More Productive Posted: 01 Dec 2014 07:00 AM PST  When it comes to being organized and productive, the to-do list is the ultimate tool. That’s why there are so many task management apps and project management systems that are focused around task lists. But at some point, you have to stop listing and start doing. By using these three lists, you’ll have all the list-making power you need without a complicated system that takes up too much time. Why Make Lists At All? Research into human psychology has given us a lot of interesting ideas about why we make lists and how we think about productivity in general. For example, there’s a...

| A Guide To The Best Budget Webcams For Under $50 Posted: 01 Dec 2014 06:00 AM PST  It’s difficult to buy a device that doesn’t include a camera these days, but the humble webcam has yet to be rendered obsolete – especially in the context of video chats and live camera streaming. It’s a niche market that presents a dilemma: good quality is important but the application is too narrow to justify spending a lot of money on it. Fortunately, the market offers a number of choices with crisp, high resolution capture at affordable prices. Are you tired of fuzzy Skype videos, poor audio clarity, and low framerates? Don’t settle for bottom-of-the-barrel cameras or built-in laptop cameras. The following... Read the full article: A Guide To The Best Budget Webcams For Under $50  |
| The Minimalist Guide To Personal Branding On Social Media Posted: 01 Dec 2014 05:00 AM PST  Personal branding. What is this alien concept you speak of? Despite this becoming much more prevalent among Internet users, I still have found through casual conversation that it’s a rather uncommon concept throughout the general public. Personal branding is the use of social media and other Internet platforms to define your personal and professional goals and interests, in addition to connecting with other like-minded individuals. So, why should you brand yourself? Isn’t that just for companies? No. It’s not – that sort of mindset is also very common though. Some people simply don’t care enough to put in the effort to...

| Build Your Own Wireless Dead Drop For File Sharing Posted: 01 Dec 2014 04:00 AM PST  File sharing isn’t always online. If you have a flash drive, you can share a file with your friend in a way that’s impossible for anyone – your ISP, the NSA, or your mom – to track. This is the idea behind the dead drop project, where people cement flash drives into walls to share files. Of course, positioning your computer so that it connects to a flash drive that’s stuck in a wall is…awkward. It also doesn’t really work with phones. So imagine this sort of offline file sharing, but over WiFi. That’s the idea behind PirateBox. Think of... Read the full article: Build Your Own Wireless Dead Drop For File Sharing  |
