I'm moving into a small apartment soon, and I was looking for a wireless router recommendations. Since the apartment is small I don't need a ton of range. Should I look for anything specific, anything to stay away from? I am a poor college student, so a low price point is defiantly a plus. Thanks for the help!

This is a link to the 380t if you haven't seen it before https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139052&cm_re=corsair_380t-_-11-139-052-_-Product

Whelp my mobo took a shit yesterday. Anyways I figured if I have to get a new motherboard might as well get a corsair 380t that I had always thought was cool since it came out. Unfortunately I guess it was discontinued. Does anyone know a). where to find one that isn't 600$ on ebay, or b). any good similar cases? Thanks!

Have you tried re-seating the RAM, I had an issue that would make the motherboard freak out and turn off. It was a simple case of poorly installed RAM.

The reason for that is that this device if for "situational awareness" only. Basically the FAA is saying that if you run into another plane because it wasn't picked up on your device, it's your fault, not the ADS-B's fault. Having this device doesn't meet the FAAs rules of having an ADS-B in the aircraft because it does not have an out signal, it only receives signals.

Ya, its a hand held type device. you can put on the dash of the plane, or the back seat. The case I bought for this came with fan, and the cut outs for the antenna. You do need a external device, that can hook up over WiFi. I have an ipad for and use an app called foreflight (it has all the maps, approach plates, AFDs, ect). Once I connect it, foreflight automatically shows any aircraft that are picked up on the screen. you can download foreflight for free (there are paid subscriptions if you plan on using it for more advanced features) otherwise if you have an android you can use Garmin pilot, it does mostly the same thing.

So, I don't know if many of you guys are into aviation, but I know everyone here is into raspberry pi's. Anyways, I'm a pilot (small piston planes as of current). In the US the FAA has rolled out a new technology that is mandated to be in every aircraft by 2020. The ADS-B out transponders in the aircraft will broadcast the location, speed, altitude, and other information to air traffic control centers, designated ADS-B towers (they look similar to cell towers), as well as other aircraft. How is this different than radar you ask? Well, the really neat thing about this system is that is daisy chains, meaning that if one planes ADS-B can pick up another plane's it can pass along that information to air traffic control and other aircraft. This will really help reduce radar dead zones caused by mountains and other obstructions. ADS-B also has a weather function where a pilot, in air can pick up weather satellite and radar info across the US. I will link the full FAA page on ADS-B here - https://www.faa.gov/nextgen/programs/adsb/pilot/ When I first saw one of my friends show off his fancy new Stratus ADS-B receiver to me I knew I had to have one. I went onto Sportys Pilot Shop- http://www.sportys.com/pilotshop/stratus-2s-ads-b-receiver-for-ipad.html to see what the price was, 900 DOLLARS, WHAT! no way, a broke college student like my self could pay that. I was pretty bummed out, util I stumbled along an open source project called Stratux - http://stratux.me/ where I read that I could built one for about 100 dollars. I went ahead and decided to build my own ADS-B. It really works like a charm, and the Stratux site has a complete amazon shopping list. Anyways here is some pictures of what it looks like and does. I haven't had a chance to take it up flying yet so I have it sitting on my porch. It is line of sight, so it only picks up airliners when not at altitude, but you can still see what it does. I think it is pretty neat-o, maybe you might too.

Ya I thought PNY was a trust worthy company, but maybe not so much. I will probably just get a Samsung SSD next time...

Do you have your CPU or GPU overclocked. In the past I have had issues where I thought an overclock was stable, but it caused little hickups like this every now and again.

I got it RMAed last night, This morning I emailed about the shipping. I haven't gotten a response, maybe because it is the weekend. I just went and put windows on an old laptop hdd that I had laying around, so I have something for now. Is it standard for companies to not pay shipping? This seems ridiculous because I paid for a functional product "guaranteed for 5 years" so if it fails, I shouldn't have to pay more money. I could try complaining and ranting, I don't like to do that, but sometimes it works.

I have had a PNY 240GB SSD for about 14 months now, well yesterday it died. I went over to a fiends house and tried it with a different computer, still nothing. I contacted PNY and they approved me for an RMA. This is my first time RMAing something, so I really have no way of knowing what to do. First question, do you have to pay your own shipping? I guess I figured that it would be free since it is still under warranty, but I did not receive a shipping label. Overall has anyone had any experience with a PNY RMA?

Every time I go to help someone and do them a favor, every problem in their life is because "that thing I did with the computer". Car won't start? its probably because of that thing with the computer? Burnt your frozen pizza, its because of that thing with the computer. I've given up on helping people.

Skype support was dropped for ps4 which sucks.
