Doesn't CCleaner remove those flash cookies?

I'm more excited about the ONYX 2 SSD's that were announced. Looks like decent pricing for those. And I need a big enough drive for my laptop.

That was my old work laptop. Long out of warranty probably.

Not nearly as funny as the other evo vs iphone clips. More of a documentary.

Looks like most of the utilities/discussion is only in members only yahoo groups. Dishrip and pvrexplorer.

Tried non-rechargeable batteries, same problem. I tossed it. I'll just order a new one or something similar that takes those batteries.

I used to be able to use it in the daytime indoors. Now it is barely able to be used in the dark. If you are saying this is not normal then I'll suspect the rechargeable batteries and try some other batteries first.

Got the panel apart and went to replace the tubes (they come already attached to a metal housing. But the metal tabs are not in the correct place. See pictures here: Top is new one, bottom is old one, with very bottom being what I have to put it in. Note they are upside down but I just wanted...

So the second Romisen RC-R4 I bought back in 2008 (first one stopped working) is now not bright anymore. I assume this is normal? The LED has reached the end of its life?

I read somewhere the red shift was a sign of the backlight failing. I'm ordering the backlight. Tired of using the backup CRT.

I use it at home but am still not fully used to the file explorer changes from XP. I have to say that navigating files is my only annoyance in 7.

We'll see if it fixes the random rebooting issue. My wife's evo was randomly rebooting in the middle of a call. I pulled the battery and it seems better but not 100%. Mine does reboot occasionally in my pocket.

Well I downloaded solitare to get it to sync on mine.

To fix the downloaded apps issue: You can either download an app to refresh the cache. Or go to manage applications and under all applications, find the market app, clear the cache and then the data. Now open the market again and it will retrieve the data from google again. Some are saying you...

And you apparently still have to use an app to do usb tethering. Sprint has the usb tethering built in disabled unless you pay for the hotspot feature.

You are doing menu -> Settings -> System Updates -> HTC Software Update ? It will be pushed OTA in waves but you should be able to do this to get it now. I was doing it many times a day since the original leaked date of July 30th.

Yes I got it last night around 9PM ET. Updated our two evos. Swype was cranky and needed to be uninstalled/reinstalled. The market still doesn't show all my downloaded apps in the downloads section, it only shows three of them.

I thought the angled side was for the drive not the board?

What is the cost of that configuration?

A google search for 8425 miniscribe turns up a couple places that appear to sell these drives. Maybe follow-up with them?

Well there is some info about the drives here that Tony wrote. http://www.redhill.net.au/d/d-a.html But as for a source of these drives, I don't know. And modern hard drives aren't going to be compatible. You may have to find a compatible controller. Maybe contact the company that makes the machine?

I have some ideas but I'm starting with some smaller throw away projects to learn how to tap into the various data sources before attempting to do the more ambitious projects. It has been a long time since I did any java work.

I like the idea but I think they should show a semi-useful app or something. I'm working my way through the android sdk myself.

If I remember correctly they build an app that plays a cat meowing. Crappy demo.

So my headphones at work are starting to fall apart, the rubber around the part you put in the ear became separated. Basically the glue wore out. But just about every pair of inexpensive headphones I try doesn't sound right to me. I wish I could try out a good pair for a few days to see what...

The dash in my car read 103°F

Most corporate policies probably prohibit it. But most of the workers find a way.

My Evo lasts more than a day no problem. I leave wifi and gps on. I only have 4G turned off (barely a signal at work - none at home). I do minimal calling though. I use it to play music at work and to check e-mail and send texts. My wife's seem not to last as long. I changed some settings...

I actually think the power button press is a plus. It prevents the phone from accidentally turning on while in my pocket. I do think it is too small and hard to press on the Evo though. But the phone process on my HTC Evo is: power button -> swipe down to unlock -> press phone button at...

I don't know how it knew the tag info. But it found the tag info for just about all my albums. The only ones it didn't find were the him albums. It even pulled the album art. My guess is it pulled the info from windows media player.

I turned the quality all the way up and it was still bad. I think it is just a bug in that part.

xrecode wins, it let me set ogg to 256Kbps which seems good for me. The ogg sounds good at this setting and had all the metadata without me touching it.

But the quality sucked when converted to ogg. Playing it through doubletwist.

Thanks, I'll try formatfactory. It looks easy enough to use.

Still recommend dbPowerAmp for batch conversions? I have a whole lot of wav files I need to get converted to say ogg and make sure they have all the appropriate tags.

thanks

is there an rss feed?

How do you configure the update interval?

Yes. Took about an hour and 15 minutes to get the pair (me and my wife). She drained her battery on Saturday before the end of the day. Mine would have lasted but I tried out the youtube app for about an hour. So I can probably make it a whole day on a charge but I'll get another micro usb...

6 hours and 17 minutes for me or something like that.

I'm not sure I agree with the taxes argument. Some suburban community taxes are offset by the shopping centers they are built around. These pull in shoppers not just from near the place but from further away too. Upscale shopping and all that. Sure if spending goes down so does revenue from...

Radio shack has a $20 accessory credit if you pre-order it from them. They may treat the mail-in-rebate differently too but I haven't got confirmation of that. In one place someone said best buy and radio shack make it an instant rebate. In another I heard just best buy. Can you pre-order it...

I like Paul Krugman's analysis. http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/ The euro itself and the inability of the countries to adjust their currency is causing more pain in the euro zone than would be necessary otherwise. But you can't just ditch the euro overnight. I haven't got the doom and gloom...

Not sure this is the price for you but the pricing I saw was: $450 - ($150 for two year contract) - $100 MIR = $199.

Pre-ordered my EVO from the shack. My local best buy didn't carry sprint.

Yeah the $10/month fee is a downer. But I'm seriously considering pre-ordering at best buy or radio shack. The shack has a $20 accessory credit for pre-orders. Is there anyplace you can go see it yet? Is it in sprint stores? You are seriously spoiled with that $30/month phone bill.

I only use google docs to open stuff people send me on my personal account. Usually this is very infrequent. At work we are still very heavy MS office users.

I'd buy that for the basement light I leave on all the time for the cat to do her business. Well when the CFL that is there dies that is.
