Easily open multiple tabs when Firefox starts
Firefox lets you specify more than one site as your home page; each page will open in its own tab when you start Firefox. To specify multiple pages, you separate each address with a pipe character (|) when you set the home page.
Example: http://www.google.com|http://www.0092ff.com
Note: This feature may lead to unexpected results when you try to set your home page to a site that contains a pipe character in the address. To fix this problem, you will have to replace the pipes with their escape code (%7C).

The main water cooling parts have been ordered
I’ve received all the parts I listed in the first post, except for my case and it’s supposed to be here today. I’m really excited to get the case so I can start planning everything.
Yesterday, I order all the main water cooling parts and I’ve listed them below.
- Pump: Swiftech MCP655
- Radiator: Black Ice GTX Xtreme 360 Radiator
w/ Panaflo 120×38mm Ultra High Speed FBA12G12U1BX (3) - CPU Block: HEATKILLER® CPU Rev3.0
- Reservoir: Swiftech MCRES Micro Revision 2
- GPU Block: Enzotech VGA-IB Forged Copper VGA Waterblock
w/ Swiftech Copper BGA RAMsinks and Aluminum MOSFET Heatsinks Set - Tubing: Feser Tube Active UV Hose – 1/2″ ID (3/4″OD) Anti-Kink Tubing
- Fluid: Distilled Water w/ Silver KillCoils
This is my first time setting up a water cooled system, so I’m sure there are some minor things that I’ll need to purchase as well. Once all the main water cooling parts come in, I can start putting everything together and I can figure out where everything should go.
Once things start coming together, I’ll start posting pictures on here.
Make sure you watch for updates!
The process of building a new computer has begun!
I’m very excited to announce that I am going to be building a new computer for my home desktop. It’s been about 7 or 8 years since I built my current computer, so I would say it’s definitely time for a major upgrade. Last night, I order most of the main parts from Newegg.com and I’ve listed them all below.
- Case = Corsair Obsidian Series 800D
- PSU = Corsair CMPSU-750HX 750W
- Motherboard = GIGABYTE GA-790FXTA-UD5
- CPU = AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition 3.4GHz
- Memory = OCZ AMD Black Edition 4GB (2 x 2GB)
- Video Card = EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX+
- Hard Drives = Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB (2)
I also plan on setting it up for liquid cooling, but I haven’t ordered any of those parts yet. I still have some research to do for that part of it.
I will be posting updates on here as things unfold, so you should subscribe to get updated about new posts.
I’m so excited!
Large Hard Drives Really Excite Me!
I was browsing Slick Deals today, like I do every day or so, and something caught my eye.
Here is the listing:
2TB Hitachi Internal 7200RPM Serial ATA Desktop Hard Drive $144
Dell SB has 2TB Hitachi Internal 7200RPM Serial ATA Desktop hard drive for $160 – 10% off coupon J1DRH2J?0D1143 = $144 with free shipping. Next best on Google Products is $190. Thanks Selma
In my computer, I have two 500GB SATA drives and I paid $84.99 for each of them on 5/19/2008. It’s only been about 17 months and now you can get drives four times that size for an extra $60. The rate at which technology grows is just amazing to me.
Watch the clock tomorrow!
At exactly five minutes and six seconds past four o’clock in the morning, this coming July eighth, we as people who have been here for hundreds of thousands of year will experience an exact time alignment including six digits. It looks as follows: 4:05:06 am of 07/08/09.
This is a special even in time because it will not happen again for another one thousand years. Our relatives will have changed the world we live in so much by that point that it may not have the same meaning. Humans may not even exist at that point in the future, so this may be even rarer because it could end up being a one time occurrence.
