Fixing a loud PSU fan without dying

Three months after I built my new computer, it started annoying me. There would occasionally be a noise that sounded like a fan was catching on a cable, but there weren’t any loose cables to be a problem.

I measured the sound at 63 dB, which is about the sound of someone talking. That may not sound terrible, but it’s a constant, nasty noise coming from som

Some users, but not many, will have 640K of memory in their PCs. You need to support systems with as little as 256K.

It’s not every day that a beloved sci-fi franchise gets a long-awaited TV series, but today is one of those days. The first two episodes of Alien: Earth are now on Hulu and FX, and fans can finally see what happens when the man behind Fargo teams up with Ridley Scott to make an Alien show. That man is Noah Hawley, who wrote and directed Tuesday’s pilot episode, “Neverland,” and wrote the second episode, “Mr. October.” Hawley has been thinking about the show for over five years, which is when Di

Spirit Airlines has just admitted what many suspected: its future is in serious doubt. The news, delivered in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, sent the company’s stock into a freefall, plummeting 41% in a single trading session on Tuesday.
