Thanks, Chewy, maybe I'll take another look at T-bird. At work, we were "upgraded" from Office/Outlook to Gsuite/Gmail. (G-not-so-Suite ;)) It has pop-up reminders, but they only show in the lower right corner of a Gmail web session. It's sooo nice to have reminders pop up in a new window...

I use Evolution in Ubuntu, because I had read that Thunderbird does not have a well-integrated calendar function (Emailed invites that are accepted are added to the calendar, and calendar appointments can have pop-up alerts before the appointed date/time, which can be delayed to repeat at a...

As Will mentioned, LibreOffice.

I'm not sure I understand this comment.

Happy Labor Day (in the USA)! Raise a glass (or two) for all the laborers.

As it happens, my Dell s2415H has speakers, and when I checked, it also has an output jack that works with my JVC Gumy. I believe plugging in those earbuds cuts off the monitor's speakers, but I can't be positive because the audio output from this PC goes through a subwoofer that was still...

Let us know how the cameras are working. ;)

As it happens, a few weeks ago, we had a very nice visit to Haley's Honey Meadery.

so is the rest of your sentence.

I had thought that mead was fermented honey, not honey added to booze: Wikipedia.

Bubbly ? Cool!

OK, "just off cuff", Dioria and Nausia. :)

Can't see the forest for the rocks. ;). (BTW, The Petrified Forest also happens to be a nice, classic pic.)

So the newest one (I've seen) is at least confining him-/her-self to the Folding Folder. :(

Sweet ride. As a college buddy used to say, "Does it go where you point it?"

And is it a used car? ;)

I would consume a sandwich.

I'm not sure the various spectre/meltdown/... variants require hyper-threading; at least some of them may work on any multi-core processor.

You could consider adding RAM test software, such as MemTest86, to your diagnostic kit.

OTOH, this Orange Muscat is a fine dessert wine, IMHO.

Cool infinite-loop-link! ;)

In your copious spare time? ;)

Then that was terrible, Lunar. Almost a decade ago, when I was laid off, I at least got a decent severance package to "tide me over". A few years later, my wife took the "offer she couldn't refuse", to retire early from her job, and got a minimal, better-than-nothing severance package. The...

So you got lucky ;) Or maybe that was part of a severance package you got, that others who hung on until the company closed did not get.

You can preview your whole post, before saving it, and test the links that way.

That. Spoken as an "old fogie" whose eyes and ears are going somewhat fast. Streaming TV in 4K (+HDR?) may be "good enough" for my vision. And I'm a fan of classic music (jazz, blues, rock (&roll), Motown, hip-hop, etc.), but not classical music, so 95% coverage may be adequate to convey the...

I Googled it earlier. I think it's something about a dog show.

I think he wants "RAD" changed to "RAID" in Computers/RAD Failure.

But HP may be cluefull. They and CostCo work out a big deal for a proprietary laptop line with impressive-seeming hw specs, and lots of CostCo customers buy in and don't have the background to realize how they've been gypped.

I haf already reported the threat you got from that new "nutjob". That was much too much (something about "must be killed"), and I think it may already be gone.

The link above works, but if you go to the linked post, the "here" links in that do not.

I noticed yesterday that some older "internal forum links" in threads are no longer functional, presumably because of the forum-conversion complexities. I also assume that this issue may be too difficult to remedy, and not worth the effort, so we may need to just accept it and move on. An...

That is a hassle, but at least we can extract the YouTube URL.

Merry belated Christmas! Now you've got time on your hands. :wink:

Having spent 14 years in Berkeley and Albany in a previous millennium, I recall that the residential heating equipment was sometimes inadequate to handle outdoor temperatures close to freezing. Bring out the clothing layers normally reserved for the Sierra Nevada range.

Now, the Air Quality Index is green, according to https://airnow.gov/index.cfm?action=airnow.local_city&cityid=317:

Tweezers.

It's still moderately bad in the SF bay area and beyond. And rain in the areas that had major fires could cause dangerous mud slides, a double disaster.

Your link isn't about any dSLR equipment, but instead, refers to a page in this web site that doesn't exist or is empty: storageforum.net/forum/newreply.php?do=postreply&t=6694

I'm sure it is. ;)

Do you use Exact Audio Copy (www.exactaudiocopy.de), or something similar, to try to get the best quality from your CD rips?

How much did you pay for your Stereo equipment, dude? ;)

I'm guessing that your faithful correspondent is not a native English speaker. BTW, I just got another blackEmail yesteday, from @list.ru. Their English was a little better, but only by about 62%. ;)

Dude indeed! That unit costs more than the 3 PCs, 2 printers, and scanner in my office.

He posted to the wrong thread. (It's happened to some of us a few times.) He couldn't delete it, so he just edited it down to 1 word.

I got my Win10 update today; I backed up the Docs and Pix folders first. Twice. But they were still there after the reboot. But I don't use that PC much; I mainly have it in case family or friends have Windows questions. (And it had a big rebate.)

Since those are kind of Windows "default locations" to save documents or pictures, I would assume that there are a lot of "ordinary" people that could have been fodder for this disastrous bug. Hopefully, not too many of them actually had gotten that "(in)security update" installed.

Or perhaps, SnooperMicro.
