LEPA MX F1 600W Power Supply Review
If you are power supply shopping, make sure you read our evaluation of the LEPA MX F1 600W before spending your hard earned money. Trust us, you'll be glad you did.
LEPA does not have much to say in terms of marketing about its new MX F1 power supply line. Outside of "Racing car style coating" and "Extremely Silent fan," we have very little to go on, except one thing. 600 watts of good PSU power priced at $49.99 with Free Shipping with be a very good value, if it's "good" power.

Technology Gone Wrong: Stolen Vehicle Edition
Did you know that almost half of all vehicle thefts in London involve the use of electronic key spoofing technology? Just great, technology is making it easier to steal your car.
Thieves use a device which bypasses the vehicle's electronic information as the owner locks it, or they break into the vehicle and connect a device to the OBD port, downloading the vehicle's information onto a blank key in a matter of seconds. The new key is then compatible with the vehicle, so it disables the alarm and the vehicle can simply be driven away.

Selfies Caused A Deadly Plane Crash
How is it NOT against regulations to take a selfie in the cockpit of a plane? Especially when you are the one flying the damn thing?
As a pilot flying a Cessna 150K aircraft under general aviation rules, Singh was not violating Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations by taking photos in the cockpit. Nevertheless, investigators concluded in their report, "It is likely that cell phone use during the accident flight distracted the pilot and contributed to the development of spatial disorientation and subsequent loss of control."

Amazon In Talks To Buy Some Of RadioShack's Stores
What a great idea! Instead of going to BestBuy for a little "showrooming" in preparation for your next online purchase, you can cut out the middle man altogether and do it all at an Amazon store.
Amazon has considered using the RadioShack stores as showcases for the Seattle-based company's hardware, as well as potential pickup and drop-off centers for online customers, said one of the people, who asked not to be named because the deliberations are private.

Internet Fast-Lanes Would Be Banned Under FCC Proposal
Oh for goodness' sake, can we please just get on with the show already? Waiting around for a decision from the Federal Communications Commission is like sitting around watching grass grow.
The step would allow the FCC to regulate Internet service providers (ISPs) like public utilities, including ensuring that ISPs cannot block any Internet content. They would also be prohibited from creating so-called Internet fast-lanes for companies and websites willing to pay for faster delivery of their content.

Thermaltake Tt eSPORTS Talon Gaming Mouse
If you are in need of a new gaming mouse, the crew at Overclockers Club seemed to really like the Thermaltake Tt eSPORTS Talon they just reviewed.
What was surprising is that I couldn't tell the difference between the Talon and that $60 mouse. In fact, the Razer options is completely controlled in software so I am usually unable to change the DPI, since I don't have time or want to download and install software across on my computers and laptop. Having a button right on top to toggle between DPI presets made switching from playing Starcraft to using the Railgun in Unreal Tournament painless. Overall, I would use this mouse for gaming and not think twice about another one.
