  1. Re:A Bit Surprised on The WRT54GL: A 54Mbps Router From 2005 Still Makes Millions For Linksys · · Score: 1

    I also bought the TL-WDR4300 over a year ago. Been rock stable on the OEM firmware. I would have put DD-WRT on it, but the last build was almost 2 years old. I figured if there was a DD-WRT bug, I'd be SOL with any updates.

  2. security missing on OpenMotics Offers Open Source (and Open Hardware) Home Automation · · Score: 1

    It seems they're missing home security in their use case. Is it me or do half the home automation solutions seem to forget to integrate hardwired and wireless door/window security. At least with openHAB this is allowed even if a binding needs to be written to interface with the security system.

  3. nightlight/desk clock on Ask Slashdot: Best Software To Revive PocketPCs With Windows Mobile 5-6? · · Score: 1

    Plug it in, turn on the backlight, start World Clock and use it a night light/desk clock. My HP 320LX has been doing that for 8 years or so.

  4. buddybackup does this for windows on Ask Slashdot: Simple Backups To a Neighbor? · · Score: 1

    I've been a happy user of buddybackup (.com) for years. It backs up to multiple friends computers and vice-versa (and a local copy). Pretty much runs in the background without any intrusiveness or adware. No mac version though.

  5. Re:It's Been Done on NASA Space Habitat Research Goes Undersea · · Score: 1

    Adult Swim even showed an animated version of what would happen called SeaLab 2021. Doesn't turn out too good for the crew most of the time.

  6. Re:A few options on What Free Antivirus Do You Install On Windows? · · Score: 1

    Another good option I haven't seen mentioned is PC Tools Spyware Doctor Starter Edition. You can get it free when you download Google Pack essentials. The only problem I've had with it was when running simultaneously with Avira. The Avira scanner would freeze randomly while scanning until I shutdown Spyware Doctor.
