They were SUPPOSED to do different things. What I figured out to tell people was to think of bluetooth as wireless USB and wifi as wireless ethernet. That usually worked well.
I've been doing this for almost two years on NT. Keep a roaming profile on a DFS root. I keep a backend server separate so I always have a replicated backup. It also keeps replicated with other sites (work and the other office). Sigh.
Flip the safe-to-execute bit in the IE control list in the registry. My machines do it automatically when the OS is installed, and I'm never bothered with flash.
You mean space to fit the six billion humans alive today? You could fit the entire world's population in an area just larger than the city limits of washington DC, assuming each person needed two square feet to stand. If everyone needed an eighth acre suburban home/lot, you could fit everyone in the four corners states. tsk tsk.
What does Qualcomm have to do with anything? My carrier is nextel, my phone is motorola. When I was looking at Nokias, I couldn't find one either. I lost a $70 bluetooth dongle because it wouldn't stay on the phone. From everything I've seen, BT is garbage.
I posted this on another forum, but I think it works here:
He's right. Bluetooth works very well in a very few, very limited situations, but for the most part it's useless. I think that's mostly due to OEM support than anything else. Not a single one of the phones I want support it, and the add-on adapters (that regularly fall off and get lost) cost way too much (Nextel quoted me US$170 for a little bluetooth dongle that I'd probably lose any way). It's not even being used for what it was made. BT, contrary to the claims of random discount hardware mfgrs is not for home networking.
If anyone wants me to use bluetooth, they need to give me at least some of what I want. Here's where you can start: Decent keyboard that works with most things I like the look of the MS keyboard, but it's the old square design and I need the split "ergo" style - unless I limit my typing to an hour or so a day and wear a wrist brace. A nifty add-on would be something that remembers a connection to multiple devices so I can flip a switch and have it cycle between my desktop, laptop/tablet, pda, and phone Same for a mouse Working on Pocket PC/Windows Mobile/whatever is kinda expected (but isn't supported at this time at all). A reasonably inexpensive phone with BT Weren't these chips supposed to cost like $5? Why am I nearly doubling the cost of a US$200 phone to get it? This is garbage. Filth. I'd be happy with a phone that did nothing but dial in and out, with BT (interfacing with a headset, pda dialer, etc would be nice - eg to the point where I don't even need an onboard address book - if I do have one, I want to be able to sync it with the PIM of my choice, like outlook). Or give me an overkill device like the Mot MPx200. I'm willing to pay a lot more for the extra functionality. My biggest gripe about phones right now is that they charge me out the boot for lots of irrelevant "features" that are only usable on the phone - my Mot i90c can store like 500 names, addresses, dates, tasks, and all that, but they don't exist outside the phone. ditch this master/slave crap I want a mesh, not locking one device to one host until I want to go through the hassle of retraining another one. I want my PDA, phone, and console to be able to grab my headset as needed. I want to be able to hear system events and dictate speech to my tablet on the bus, get a small beep when the phone (in my pocket) rings, maybe an onscreen notification of who it is, and tap a button on my headset to answer if I want.

You do not exercise to burn calories. You exercise to keep your metabolism up. That burns the calories for you. The difference is that exercise only uses calories to power the work done - jogging at 5 mph burns maybe 1000 calories an hour (well for someone of my size). If I do that for half an hour, I get rid of 500 calories. Big deal. But my BMR (basal metabolic rate) is kept at a certain level (meaning it never goes below a certain amount of calories burned per time. Burn calories sleeping? Wow!
Diet RC Cola is half way there. It's made with Splenda, so it tastes about the same as regular (which I still don't have on my favorites list, but oh well). Now we just need to ditch the caffiene.
I used to try. I got tired of hearing excuses like "that only happens in the movies", "I can always dispute the charges", and "Norton will protect me".
For IE 5/6, do tools, internet options, security, internet, custom level. Set everything in activex controls to disabled, except automatically run, which you can set to run. This will only allow already-installed controls to run, but won't download new ones or give you that damned annoying message about how it's not running them because of your settings (that's the only reason you tell it to run - if you can deal with it nagging you for every refresh, set that to disabled too). You can block specific things like flash by adding the GUID and a descriptor to a certain part of the registry.
What you do is set the activex controls to run installed ones automatically (gets rid of that damned annoying box saying your security settings prevent it), and prevent the download of new ones (it's all in the zones security). Then go in some location under the IE registry key and add the GUID of controls you don't want run (like flash).
The term limelight actually came from how lighting gas used to be generated. Water was poured over heated lime, which catalyzed the decomposition to hydrogen and oxygen. These gases were piped to lights and burned. This method was rather unreliable, because other gases, like carbon monoxide, would be generated too. While they were harmlessly fully oxidized when the lamps lit, if the flame went out, it would poison the air.
It sounds like you need some basic debt validation. Check out this link (the rest of the site contains some very useful information too): http://www.creditinfocenter.com/rebuild/deb t_valid ation.shtml
Basically, debt validation is just what the name says - validating a debt. The debt holder has to provide proof of acceptance of a contract (usually a piece of paper with your signature on it) or they can't legally pursue the debt. This procedure worked perfectly on a fraudulent student loan that was on my record (not that I'm not weaseling out of anything - I'm still paying on the one on which I agreed to pay - I wish I could let myself get out of it that easily).
Except that pretty much every credit card receipt says that you agree to abide by the terms of the cardholder agreement, and you gotta sign it to buy something. That nixes this plan. I think this is exactly why they started doing this.
I believe that the distinction is that they're public places, but not public property (private property as they are privately owned). Small words, big difference. Basically, you can't be arrested for trespass on private property that is a public place until you are asked to leave. The trash thing is not so well precedented.
Personally I would lean toward Media Player Classic and the ffdshow MPEG4 codec (both free/beer). I have them packaged in an MSI around here somewhere.
You REALLY do not want to mix up Ghost and NT. The unique security identifiers (the GUID that identifies it to the domain) cause all sorts of problems. You're MUCH better off using RIS to install the OS. It's just as fast, and allows a lot more flexibility when setting things up like SPs, hotfixes, install scripts, and other programs. Combine that with a little MSI mojo (what everyone SHOULD be using to install stuff) with or without activedirectory, and you have one of the fastest and most flexible reinstalls available. I used it for two years at my last job, and maybe spent half an hour per week on admin tasks on about two hundred systems. And most of that was installing special request software for users.
You need to heat it up. The magstripe on ID cards is very thick and seems to have a higher curie point (though I think it's all just ferrite, odd). Any way, I held mine real close to a soldering iron and held a magnet to the back of it. The stripe was gone.
Have you ever tried using windows for anything without having administrative priviledges?
Yep, and adminned a win2k network in that configuration for about two years. Works great. Learn how to use the secondary logon service (start/runas:user...) or just open multiple command prompts. It works that way out of the box. Personally I find explorer.exe too insecure to use as an administrator - it's command prompt only.
It's not quite the same. The software is (at least I'm assuming) sold as "windows compatible" or "made for windows" or something like that, but it requires a specially altered configuration, in effect breaking it for other things. It is not fully compatible, so it's either bug or false advertising. I was trying to be nice. Same thing for the broken CDs. They're sold as CD-Audio (or whatever the marketing name for Redbook is), but they don't conform to the standard. It's either a bug or false advertising.
I can't help if there are no games made for your choice of OS. Sucks though.
