    Buying Nike Online

    Unfortunately the selection and pricing for Nike products in Canada are quite bad. A couple of stores (Athletes World, Sport Chek) have a buy one get one half off deal, which isn't bad. Alternatively, if you buy an older model - the Free Run 2s, for example, are still quite good - you can get...

    Corsair HX750

    How much do you think I should sell my HX750 for? It has all the accessories and 6 years of warranty remaining. Thanks!

    "Margin of error" - why not just do a variance test?

    Before I go on I should clarify that this is in no way a dig at tech reviewers, because I definitely enjoy and appreciate your work (otherwise I wouldn't be providing my suggestions). My problem with the current application of margin of error is that it 1) is arbitrary, and 2) obfuscates (for...

    "Margin of error" - why not just do a variance test?

    A lot of tech reviewers and sites seem to have this ethereal margin of error that comes out now and then when explaining data, e.g. "Product 1 performed X, and Product 2 performed Y, but those results are similar and could fall within the margin of error". I've always wondered: why not just do...

    Desperately need to upgrade my computer audio

    I'm pretty much sold on the idea of a sound card and a pair of monitors - I'm considering the Audioengine A2s because they are small and will fit on my desk nicely. My question is if I add a sub will the sound card be able to handle the crossover properly, or do I need to get a sub that does this?

    Desperately need to upgrade my computer audio

    Okay so let's say I got the Audioengine 2 and a sound card - would I be able to connect a subwoofer to the sound card and would the sound card be able to handle the crossover?

    new Lawful Access Law

    No one knows for sure what the Bill will look like. Professor Geist is a very smart man who knows more about the law than I ever hope to, however I feel that his assessment doesn't match up with the previous Bills. Going off Bill-51, which is ostensibly what the new Bill will be based on, police...

    new Lawful Access Law

    Oh no, he's completely right - they totally can do that. He just left out the part of them needing a warrant for all of those things. Most likely for dramatic purpose. s. 2.1.2 of the Summary, can't find the Bill.

    new Lawful Access Law

    I think if you read the Legislative Summary of the Bill, you will find that all of those require a warrant. I'm not here to get into a philosophical debate on the limits to police powers, nor do I think the proposed law is perfect in any way (far from it!). I just feel that the news media has...

    new Lawful Access Law

    Really? The only "new" warrantless power I found was in relation to destruction of data, which again I would argue is to give the police some sort of equal footing when it comes to technology, and is analogous to preventing some dude from flushing his stash. Even still, they are required to...

    new Lawful Access Law

    To be fair, this Bill is way less zany than Bill C-10. It is more about, at least in my opinion, updating police powers in terms of technology - which they have up until now been pretty toothless - rather than adding new powers as the articles suggested. The "without a warrant" talk is a bit...

    Desperately need to upgrade my computer audio

    Wow. Turning on 3G did the trick! I would always turn it off when I got home to save data. Thanks! $30 seems like a really good price, however that card seems to be discontinued. I will look into soundcards though.

    Desperately need to upgrade my computer audio

    I really don't like my audio solution right now, especially that annoying GSM noise that comes through the speaker every time someone calls me. Price is not really an issue so long as I feel that I am spending wisely. After doing some research, I've narrowed down a few choices: Edifier S330D...

    Custom Arcade Stick

    Howdy. This seems like a fun project. Lizardlick and Akihabara (Akihabarashop.jp) have the best selection. Arcade Power (Arcade Power - Parts) is an option if you're not looking for anything exotic and you're located in the GTA.

    NZXT Switch 810 Case Review Comment Thread

    This is uncomfortably shiny. Looks like a dust, fingerprint and scratch magnet.

    Intel 520 240GB Cherryville SSD Review Comment Thread

    Great review. Is it safe to assume that the 120GB version would perform similarly compared to other 120GB drives?

    Which tech companies to research?

    Man you guys are good! Foxconn was definitely the ticket. There is so much research on them, I guess due to all the negative publicity they've gotten. JD, you the man. Herne, you have a good point. It would probably make the most sense to compare like businesses. Is there a particularly ethical...
