  1. Re: Actually on Turning the Tables On "Phone Tech Support" Scammers · · Score: 1

    I know this is sort of off topic, but duct cleaning is a real thing. I work in the HVACR (air conditioning / refrigeration) business. Now there are scammers in all trades, but if you are worried check the BBB or Angie's list to see. Duct cleaning makes the system more efficient, removes mold and bacteria. Just my $.02 .

  3. Making changes on Ask Slashdot: Should Developers Fix Bugs They Cause On Their Own Time? · · Score: 1

    Tell your boss this. If a builder were to makes multiple changes, and those changes effected a good wall, he should expect to have "change orders" submitted. That would mean he would be billed for further services. Your original code may have been fine when you wrote it, but when it changes it could effect what was originally written.

    I have an ancient LaserJet 4 HP printer , I will cry when it dies . I had several inkjets and i vow never to go back , I used to buy them and when they ran out of ink go out and get another ($25 for printer or $30 for black ink ?) . I got it from my wifes work with spare toner .

  9. UV lights on Recovering Moldy Electronics? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Strong UV (black light) will kill mold and bacteria regular black lights like at spencers aren't strong enough . they are starting to use them in forced air heating and a/c equipment to keep the air clear and the duct work clean of mold and mildew .

I can see maybe in the next 10 years there might not be any phone lines left , and if they are it will be in those areas that are hard to reach with broad band now .
