Why are you paying $40 to cricket when you can get a better coverage provider for $45 w/ unlimited talk, text, and data ($30 for a limited 30 day package). I believe they are on verizon's network.
If you prefer Sprint, boost and virgin mobile both offer unlimited text, data, and talk for $60 or less.
Funny, because I use a reg file on a USB drive called "Audiosrvr" that resets the Windows audio server and fixes the "no sound" problem pretty much every single time.
link please, I hate that problem, I usually just make people plug into the front jacks, which seems to fix the problem.
OpenSUSE has hardware compatability better then any other distro, I originally started using it because I could setup wireless cards with ease, now wireless is less of an issue on other distros, but OpenSUSE still rocks!
that is the easiest way to find and install a package, aptitude lets you do something similar from the commandline, but apt-get does not have a decent search interface, if I recall correctly...
I'm the opposite, I used OpenSUSE for a long time and switched to Ubuntu because there were more packages available. However, Ubuntu had constant problems. Every how-to (for Ubuntu) assumes you are running a GUI, so it was difficult to figure things out on my headless installs. The showstopper for me was support for a second monitor, OpenSUSE supports switching monitor to projector or adding a second monitor almost seamlessly. I went back and I love OpenSUSE.
I especially love that I can use the same admin tools on my headless servers as the ones I use on my workstations. Add in SuseStudio, and their excellent support for ltsp (not to mention kiwi), and you have something truly awesome!
midwife's are difficult to find in some places due to legal issues and weird regulations. It's getting better. My last child resulted in an emergency c-section since his arm was up over his head, I was glad to be in the hospital, it was very unexpected since 1 - 3 were very normal births.
Comcast is already so out of touch with their customers. They recently started advertising about how nice their installers are and how they wear booties over the boots on your carpet. They have never done this, until AT&T started doing it and competing head-to-head in their market with U-verse.
What totally pisses me off and sends me into a blind rage is the Ben and Shaq commercials. I would love to know how much those douchebags are getting paid (adding to my cable bill). I've been thinking of writing a letter to cancel citing those commercials and the obvious wast of money they illustrate. Come on, TV is a commodity, don't pretend there is a premium brand.
Hard work is worthless if the deck is stacked against you enough. I tend to fall more on the basic healthcare should be part of your taxes side of things.
Private pay would be the most ideal, but have you ever tried to price out a procedure (ignoring the difficulty in price shopping when you are sick or injured). It's impossible, nobody is interested in taking the time to quote you even a ballpark figure for something like a baby delivery. Sure the OB will tell you what they charge, and maybe some of the other docs involved. The hospital has no interest in doing so. The best I could do last time my wife and I had a baby (less then 2 years ago) was people with insurance usually pay in this range.
The system is to broken to be fixed in one fell swoop and rolling it into our current tax structure makes the most sense. Anything that will break the back of the insurance cartel.
The insurance companies gatekeep role stifles ingenuity. How many people do you know staying at a crap job to maintain health insurance. It favors large established companies over newer companies even if that newer company is more efficient.
When medical bills are paid, they are often itemized w/ the surgeon's amount charged independently. That Lexus mechanic's shop may get more then the surgeon, however the mechanic only sees a fraction of that amount.
plus cars are getting more reliable, people are getting older...
Actually, alot of America's wealth did come from trees. They are cheap building material and cheap fuel. Cutting down the coast to coast forests gave America a big advantage over countries where most old growth trees were gone and forest had to be carefully managed. This advantage has only disappeared in the last 100 years, maybe less.
I prefer to use fsarchiver or partimage to take an image of the hard drive. I pxe boot the system rescue cd or use a physical cd and make room for the image on the users hard drive. I shrink their partition and format the reclaimed space as ext3, so windows cannot see it and it is impervious to virus infection. Then I can walk the user through restoring that partition or have them pxe boot and do it myself via ssh.
My image is taken right before the PC is deployed, so it should have all the program on it and be configured for that user. This method doesn't provide a real backup if the disk fails, but it speeds up recovery from virus or user damage to the OS and I don't have to keep track of images on a central repository, the image is always with the PC.
Have you tried different contact materials? Take Acuvue for instance, there are Acuvue2, Acuvue Oasys, and Acuvue Advance. Each is made of a different material and some people can have a sensitivity to one or the other. My doc switched me from Acuvue 2 to Acuvue Advance a couple years ago and it works fine, but the Oasys seem to irritate my eye a bit.
Another thing I tell people. Tell you doc to give you contacts that do not correct for astigmatism. Many people can't tell the difference and the astigmatism ones are thicker and cause more eye irritation and dryness. It doesn't hurt anything to try them, but some docs are hesitant so be insistent.
The infrastructure is there to serve and protect people, we are talking about it failing catastrophically during an earthquake, so yeah, I meant repopulate.
You either plan ahead (missed opportunity), retrofit (too expensive), evacuate (no time), or take your chances and deal with a large loss of life. We are talking about a real world issue and this probably comes off as callous, I don't live in that area and would probably choose to invest in retrofitting myself, however I don't see that happening.

guess that's a better password then I thought. I tried to type that 3 times and just couldn't get it right...
that password is fine until someone starts using it for a website, laspdedi.com

yeah, zypper is great, try:
sudo zypper ref
sudo zypper up
updated your system, or:
sudo zypper se package
sudo zypper in packagename

As a Sysadmin type, I am not surprised by lazy developers.
So, you think that because her husband died, she should be allowed to skip out on paying her bills?
Yes, we should all care more for widows and orphans...
The world would be a better place...
...the reason we can't find 5.25 floppy readers is because we don't need to - nobody is crazy enough to still be storing data this way...
You are funny!
and haven't met the people I work with...:-(
GAH!
No wonder our world is fucked, it's run by economists...
