Toyota creating alcohol detection system Toyota Motor Corp. is developing a fail-safe system for cars that detects drunken drivers and automatically shuts the vehicle down if sensors pick up signs of excessive alcohol consumption, a news report said Wednesday. Cars fitted with the detection system will not start if sweat sensors in the driving wheel detect high levels of alcohol in the driver's bloodstream, according to a report carried by the mass-circulation daily. The system could also kick in if the sensors detect abnormal steering, or if a special camera shows that the driver's pupils are not in focus. The car is then slowed to a halt. Get ready to wear glove…

7900GT: Unlocking the Beast Within "Of course, we can presume they are speed-binned such that the better ones are used on the GTX. But this bodes well for the 7900GT owners as the potential is likely there. My initial hunch is that the 7900GT are actually supplied with lower voltages so that a very simple single slot cooling solution and a relatively modestly rated power supply can be employed for these cards."

Ultra X3 1600w Power Supply "Now interestingly enough, the packaging for the X3 1600w does not carry any multi-graphics card certifications, and none are mentioned in the manual or on Ultra’s product page. So a quick check of the SLIZone page and ATI CrossFire page were in order, but they too yielded nothing. As this product is relatively new and is not being launched with lots of press it could be that it hasn’t been submitted for certification yet. With hat all said the X3 1600w is billed as a single 12v rail 1600w power supply and if it can do all it is billed to, it will run any SLI or Crossfire setup going. Period."

UT2k4 X-Fi mod "Creative has released a new patch for Unreal® Tournament 2004 with weapons sounds and music enhanced by dSonic, especially to take advantage of the X-Fi card's superior firepower and 128 voice support. Weapons and music both now use multiple voices for a bigger sound, and three dimensional panning for use with multi-speaker set-ups to surround you with sound."

Looking to sell my computer and monitor as well as Unopened COD4 2 WoW accounts (great accounts) Unreal Tournament 3 Never been used Final fantasy 12 game/strategy guide (ps2) There's tons more stuff I have laying around that has been sitting not being used for months.

I haven't played ANY games other th…

"When it comes to performance the AMD Phenom X3 8750 performed much faster than the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ and actually beat out the AMD Phenom X4 9600 (Running the TLB Patch) in a number of benchmarks. It was also able to perform better than the Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 and Core 2 Duo E6750 as seen in the benchmarks." "Throughout testing, the Phenom X3 8750 performed in-line with our expectations, outpacing the dual-core chips more often than not, and falling behind the quad-cores in all of the multi-threaded applications. Despite a huge clock speed disadvantage, the Phenom X3 8750 was able to outpace the 3.0GHz Core 2 Duo E6850 in a handful of tests, and in all but a …

...and you thought your job sucked? "As of Jan. 30, 2006 the average per-capita income in the U.S. was $27,640, which means that a lot of people in the nation earn considerably less." "Crab fishing, one of the worst jobs around, no matter which way you slice it. The short fishing season for crab—and the high potential payoff—means the pace onboard a crabbing vessel is grueling. Deckhands routinely put in brutal 21-hour shifts launching and retrieving the 800-pound crab pots. The primary allure? The money, of course. Crew members can raked in $50,000 during the three- to five-day king crab season." Then again five days of 21 hour shifts that are paying $10,000 …
