    what it feels like to move at speed of light

    Well, a sloppy analogy (what I can think of) could be to imagine you are riding on a single photon (setting apart the duality controversy). And on your world line, pick any two points and find the time it takes to travel the distance, you get nothing. You could say the concept of time itself...

    [Query] LCD monitor flickering - needs a service?

    I have a Samsung 2233SW monitor. It's been like more than two years and was working very good. Just a few days back, it started flickering - say once in 5 seconds, it blacks out and comes back right away - and this is at regular intervals. I connected it to my laptop and saw the same...

    Google Nexus 4 Thread

    What does a constant red led without flash mean on N4? I checked battery, its pretty good. I restarted, but no use. If there's an SMS and I haven't read it yet, the red led stays along with the default led showing up now and then. I don't use LightFlow or any such led mod apps.

    Google Nexus 4 Thread

    Hi, my phone's gonna be in my hands by this weekend. I've searched for a matte anti glare screen guard for Nexus 4. Am looking for something which is a little coarse grained, I don't mind if it reduces the default brightness a little but mainly should be anti-glare. Any suggestions?

    Skyrim launch - Steam Error - Failed to start the game (Unknown error)

    Got them working, had to re-install OS. Yes it would have been the SP1 update in my case too. Thank you!

    Skyrim launch - Steam Error - Failed to start the game (Unknown error)

    I doubt that, but will give a try anyways. When I re-enabled getting updates from Microsoft, SP1 was one among several of them. I remember I had tried launching Skyrim before I did the SP1 specifically, but faced the same thing. I think I'll try uninstall just SP1, try running and if no use...

    Skyrim launch - Steam Error - Failed to start the game (Unknown error)

    I had AC Brotherhood and Revelations and F1 2011 before this Steam story. All were running like a charm. After this Steam download of two games and some Windows update stuff (to Win7 64-bit SP1), all's blown except for F1 2011. Am still able to play fine just this one. Specs: Core i5 2500...

    Skyrim launch - Steam Error - Failed to start the game (Unknown error)

    Thanks, will give it a try. I had Portal 2 disk, installed it today. It was again going through Steam for an update (1.2 GB !!! ) and well after that, it crashes just after showing a black launch screen. Now I don't know whether it's Steam to blamed or the game, I don't want to crack my head...

    Skyrim launch - Steam Error - Failed to start the game (Unknown error)

    Thanks guys, tried all, but no help. Updated Windows, tried verify game cache - it always says 3 files verify unsuccessful and downloads them every time. I don't think I got GFWL, rather it is GFW Marketplace. How do I try re-install just those 3 packages?

    I sure as hell am repenting to have downloaded a game via Steam. 2 days of painfully slow downloads and now this. The game doesn't even start. Have you guys experienced this? I hate to go to Steam support, would hate to see a copy pasted usual reply to one and all problems the whole world...
