33 and going to sleep.

34 and dropping fast. PG&E went from 45.00 to 160.00 for December. And you wonder why I try an limit heat use? Most of that is folding @ home, I'm pretty sure. It's so cold that when the in house system are set at 10%, they are at full throttle, since the cold air hitting them is so far below...

Hmmmm. Unicomp keyboard came in. Reminds me of all those IBM buckling spring keyboards. Noisy, kind of a weird cheap plastic scraping against plastic feel. Still, my typing seems much faster and the rebound on the keys is much faster. Little doubt that's due to the rather large spring...

"PS/2 or USB? PS/2 wins on three fronts: First, it supports full n-key rollover. Second, PS/2 keyboards aren't polled, but are completely interrupt based. And third, it is impossible for it to be delayed by the USB bus being used by other devices. There are two types of USB transfer modes - the...

New battery is in. Now have a thicker phone. It's charging, for 8-12 hours, with the phone on...

I'm looking for a system, used would be good, and not absurdly expensive. Put a price on these systems and let me think about it.

36 yesterday morning, 51 today. Tropical, but wet cold.

Seal Shield came in. It's just a hair better then the Kennsington keyboard. It did come with a little water proof box to put the connector in when you wash it. Overall, it isn't noticeably better then the 10-15 dollar keyboards. Being spill proof, it may stay on the main desktop. We'll see when...

I hope, for 40 dollars, this keyboard has better keys, besides being spill proof. I do like the idea of being able to put the keyboard in the dishwasher: http://store.sealshield.com/silver-storm--keyboard-ps2-p99.aspx

Kensington keyboard for life. At least it came with a PS/2 adapter. Feels just like the other keyboard. Still, no sticking keys works. Only complaint on these is shipping is getting a bit expensive. Amazon shipping and handling, something I thought would go down if I bought two keyboards, was...

First two keyboards came in. Typing this on the K120. Feels like a cheap, working, Logitech keyboard. Better then no keyboard, which is what I had. So, turning this one off, and going in the other room to use the Kennsington spill proof. This keyboard works, but I don't really like it. Still...

How do you set android to 2g?

"Sherlock"? I'm half way through season 2 number 1, and it's quite good. All I could find for first season where three shows. This is a British TV show. The internet is a wonderful place.

I have those concerns as well. I'm using some rather tough freezer bags, and, I do take large top sirloins, cut them into manageable sizes, and use the machine to pull out the air and freeze them. Kind of a natural after doing that, to thaw and cook Sous Vide. Only thing is I need to sear the...

It's really not that bad. I sear the meat before finishing it with sous vide. For example pork loin seared in the oven broiled. Pull it out, season it, put it in a plastic bag, and cook for a couple hours at 165. Same with steak. Came out so tender I couldn't believe it. The meat cooks...

Hi I've been trying to cook high protein food, with little fat. Only thing is, it's easy to overcook. Look into this hot water cooking, under vacum seal stuff. I'm playing with it, and so far, it provides very tender meat, and, major margin for error.

Bunraku was a comic based movie I just watched. Kind of fun fantasy action-thriller. I enjoyed it, and I didn't even know the characters.

Gamers seem to think PS2 is less stress on the cpu, and, as long as you have a port, my experience has also been that when SHTF, it's a lot easier to have a keyboard that works in the bios, rather then after. Yes, I have adapters, but see no reason to go to them. Thanks Maxburn. I was...

OK: Coffee on the keyboard, and dead O key. Brought the MSFT keyboard from the other room, but, it's on it's last legs, as well. Enter and shift keys are horrible. I went first to this website: http://store.sealshield.com/silver-storm--keyboard-ps2-p99.aspx and ordered one of these. However...

Happy New Year to all.

I enjoyed Starship Troopers, just a bit. Just got done watching Wall-e, and it really was nothing like what I expected. The heroine was a complete surprise. I couldn't help but think when Wall-e rebooted it sounded much to much like a MSFT sound;-)

It also doesn't seem to go well on the 4G slide, screwing up some of the very features I wanted, like Wifi. It's not exactly like rooting newer phones is an exact science. Kind of reminds me of trying to get Linux to work on a box that didn't have all the components picked for compatibility.

At this point, I'd just be happy being able to easily root my phone back into a clean version of 2.34 Gingerbread.

http://galaxy-s.t-mobile.com/samsung-galaxy-s2?cm_mmc_o=Vzbp+mwzygt*VAygtzlw*VyBpAgf+mA55Byf*VyBpAgf+mA55Byf LM has a phone that is upgradeable to Ice Cream, and I thought it was being advertized as the only phone with Ice Cream already installed?

You have no idea how sad, but true LM's comments are. I just got done trying to setup a SCSI drive for downloading files onto, then moving to another disk. The problem is, for some reason, the transfer rates between my SATA drives is slower then data between my two computers using cat 6, by...

I stand corrected. http://reviews.cnet.com/2300-6452_7-10008658.html?tag=mncol;rvwBody Still, it's a pretty decent phone: Updated December 22, 2011 9:24 AM PST) http://reviews.cnet.com/best-camera-phones/ I do wonder if part of the stuff they are describing isn't hardware, but sucky...

I actually decided to read the NBA's lawyerese terms of conditions on using their NBA League Pass. Fun stuff, like it automatically renews every year, unless you go to one of their websites, and cancel it. Of course it's VERY difficult to find the actual area on that page to cancel your...

Hasn't really changed much in a year. Processors aren't taking a huge leap, unless that 2.5 comes out. Yes, the Samsung is faster. Would I notice it? Probably not, since the phone would have to be turned off a lot thanks to the battery not being able to keep up with it. T-Mobile® myTouch™ 4G...

My bad.

Colombiana is getting rave reviews by my local blockbuster guys. Did Merc really quote these guys? http://web-images.chacha.com/superbad/superbad-dec-2-2010-200.jpg http://www.chacha.com/topic/superbad Seems that's the only reference I can find for that line, unless it was from True Grit, the...

Handurin: That's one of the selling points of the 4G Slide. Reviews suggest it's an excellent camera as well. It's ok as a phone.

I asked Tmobile, and should check again, if you can have two phones, same number. They said no. I agree with your approach, but, I'm waiting for Republic to get going, and offer me a number. IIRC, the phone they offer is a single core, gets decent battery mileage, and, I could always add the...

Mainly for emergencies. You show up at a gym in Napa, and no one's there to play the game. First need to check the assigning website to make sure you got the facts straight, then call the assignor and inform him of the situation. Doesn't happen often but it does happen. Partner fails to show...

Can't have two phones, unless I swap the SIM card for the two functions. Not worth it. It's the problems that arise that make the Android phone worth having. Being able to instantly check my Calendar, and email, while driving is vital to the business I do. I also like the notes for a to do list.

Hmmm. It's warm lately. Around 40 at night. Wind off the Sierras died for the last couple days, and it was foggy at the beach today. Looks like the wind is kicking up again, since temps are going for the 35 area, starting tomorrow. Cougtech: Love to meet you, no spooking involved.

I already do that. Problem is the car charger. If I plug it in, and, run it, uses a different adapter then the Radar Detector. The phone is relatively easy, since it's a USB cable, to a USB male, that has two ports for USB. Also need to run the GPS once and awhile off the same thing.

LM: ALL of the dual core processor phones seem to have one, common complaint, poor battery life. Your's is no different. Simply put, ALL of the cell phones that are put out right now have a battery that is incapable of supplying the phone for all but the basic functions, for a long period of...

I've been trying all kinds of solutions. Kind of a Catch 22: Get a mobile phone that does the things I want, then turn them all off because the battery won't last long enough. I took the phone out yesterday at 7AM. Did two Varsity basketball games from 9-12 am. Turned the phone on, and missed...

30 tonight, and dropping, at 5 am. Tropical.

Ours works, but the buildings were built in the early 60's, and the heating stuff they use was pre-energy efficient. The Beast and the server are excellent sources of heat, along with the floorboard alum heater. Only 25 last night.

same again. 29.3 @ 12:26.

25.3, still dropping 7:10 am

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walnut_Creek,_California#Climate Record low from the 1893''s to 1974 or so was 18 degrees in December. I moved her in the mid 60's, left in 72, and have been around since 1995. I guess I missed the 18 degree days, though it did hit 27 or less about 12 years ago...

It's STILL dropping. 25.8 and going down, and it's 5:30 AM
