  1. HEfty on Recommend a Tech Toys Bag? · · Score: 1

    Insert head, tie tightly about the neck and breathe deeply repeatedly, the answer will come to you... walk into the light!

  2. But this is a human game on Replacing Sports Referees With Technology? · · Score: 1

    Really, it is time to let humans play and officiate human games, and video games can be governed by the technology. Remember baseball is a game of inches, and progress in the game's rules, technology, and fashion of play changes in only "inches" too. Really, think to yourself.... how many times have you said "Aw, we was robbed." as to "The ump called him safe, whatya gonna do?" I think it has to balance out, and no, I don't have time to fish the stats out of google or MLB to back 30 (-6 years for being pissed about strikes) years of baseball viewing. Oh, right, I played(amateur) for almost 10 years too....

  3. Are you 18? on Yahoo Closes Chat Rooms to Anyone Under 18 · · Score: 1

  9. Re:Encryption Settings on Windows XP SP2 and WEP Encryption? · · Score: 1

    from my experience, having received HP's in my summer shipment of new hardware to deploy for the past 3 summers, they used/included Broadcom wireless management on the driver installation cd for the hardware build we were furnished, which battled with windows wireless management... Now HP ships with HPwlan assistant... seems to behave with windows so far. In the end it was a one two punch of new drivers for/by broadcom, and windows both trying to manage the wireless that hurt us in the past.

  10. Re:Encryption Settings on Windows XP SP2 and WEP Encryption? · · Score: 1

    Ewww, the latest drivers are what knocked our wireless out on our network, took some doing to pin point it. Some crap that came down the pipe in windows update was the problem.

  11. Store what you can afford! on Data Storage For Home? · · Score: 1

    If you can't afford the storage, you don't need to save.... pretty simple if you take a step back and look at the situation.... Like the yocal in Mad Max said, "Speed is just a matter of money, how fast do you wanna go?" You gotta pay to play. sorry for the reality check.

    In the password juggle, I have a core password, and then some other crap attached based on the need for the password. Works for me, that's enough.

  14. Symantec SUX on IE More Secure Than Mozilla? · · Score: 1

    Really, just list all the holes for alltime, not just a finite time period, I wonder who eats the crow then?

  15. from nowhere to leader? on Oracle Beginnings - Where to Start? · · Score: 1

  16. Enough IKEA aleady on Space Saving Technologies for the Home? · · Score: 1

    If you plan to move again, scrap the Ikea idea.... the crap can be assembled in a snap, the first time! Try taking it apart and moving, and then re-assembling the Ikrapa again. I live in Europe now, and I have too much Ikea stuff to move again(have moved twice, I am an Ikrapa engineer now;->) with out buying another round, or upgrading. However, if you have a cordless drill with appropiate bitsk and screws, a big hammer and nails, you could make a go of it..... but it sound like you got cabbage, so buy good stuff, your wife will appreciate it in a few years.

  17. Re:I can see it now on Windows Vista To Come In 7 Flavors · · Score: 1

    HOLD the FONE Sparky, I work in Europe, am from the US and work 10 hour days, are talking about swiss bankers hours?? People here are just as LAZY as anywhere in the western world, they are much better at justifying it, and society is more understanding of the workers plight. Each side gives a little, and we have the appearance of productivity. :->|{ Don't get me wrong, work sucks.....

  21. back-ups? on Online Backup Solutions? · · Score: 1

    After reading about 7/10's of the replies, I saw that some people were missing this poor guy's point.... He lives in flippin hurricane alley, mailing tapes to the office 8 miles away? Hello??!! Chances are he has no basement to put a box of disks into, it would fill with water too if he did. Solution, spend the cash for some 250Gb firewire harddisks, enough to have one set in watertight storage, ready for evac, and one set hooked into the system backing up...Set a schedule and stick to it. I know a woman who will sell you handcuffs for the securing of the data to your person....
