    I would think the US dollar's value would fall faster than the Australian dollar's value, which would make the Australian dollar rise relative to it. Since this is the US election we're talking about.

    With Trump leading so far, I think it would have been a good time to buy put options a few weeks ago. Now, I think Implied Volatility is too high, which makes IV crush very likely.

    Opus is way better than MP3. AAC comes second, but has more compatibility.

    My area was going to get real fibre. Then Malcolm Turnbull removed a whole lot of areas from the FTTP rollout while pretending he was just improving accuracy of the maps.

    HP's "The Machine"

    Sure, we have NAND flash. And yes it's much faster than using mechanical drives. But memristors should take it to a whole other level. At least in theory. They're supposed to be: • As fast as RAM (much faster than NAND flash) • Use much less power (it takes a high voltage to store a...

    HP's "The Machine"

    The key technology with it is memristors (also known an ReRAM), which if they end up ever getting to market, could end-up replacing both hard drives and RAM, into a single unified storage system. Current operating systems and programs are built on the assumption that you have a set of fast...

    GTX 970 Low fps on almost everything

    How much video RAM gets used when you're running your games? You may be affected by this issue: AnandTech | GeForce GTX 970: Correcting The Specs & Exploring Memory Allocation The short explanation is that Nvidia disabled something in the 970 GPU's which causes low memory bandwidth, then...

    What You've Just Bought!

    Re: The What You've just Bought thread! I like electric cars. But the thing that's holding them back is battery technology. Specifically: 1. energy capacity vs weight or volume 2. charging time Let's see how well graphene supercapacitors work.
