Taste of Chicago

I did 110 miles on my bike between Thursday and Sunday. I don't drink a lot of beer the nights before riding though, it really makes for an unpleasant ride. Yesterday I did 65 miles, much of it on crushed gravel. It was also around 85F degrees and sunny. The second half of the ride was pretty...

Everyone must be on vacation today...

You may be referring to a Java Applet. This works similarly to how flash works in a browser. Your browser uses a plug-in to run code on your machine's Java Virtual Machine (JVM). A plug-in's performance is not really affected by the browser itself as the plug-in usually spawns another process to...

Java and JavaScript are two different things. Updating the version of Java you are running won't affect JavaScript in a browser.

Maybe Greg is running a domain controller with 10,000 users. Or maybe he is running a JBoss server with a million page views a month. Or maybe he is running a transactional database server will millions of transactions an hour. Or maybe he just wants to waste money for no reason.

Thanks.

Aren't you the CIO at a mid-sized company? What in the hell are you doing climbing towers?

You could disable all the USB ports. Problem solved.

I don't know what you should buy, but when you throw it away I'll take it instead. I'll even pay shipping and handling!

That's not so bad, last week I was at work until 2:35am one night. 17+ hour workdays make you stronger.

OT: I just noticed that Netgear has a Coax-ethernet adaper that supports up to 270Mbps. Has anyone ever used this type of adapter before? It looks like an interesting idea to replace my terribly slow 802.11n network.

I've used Privoxy in the past and it was very simple.

I like Filezilla.

Most of those uninstall directories can be safely deleted from the Windows directory.

I'd look at Denon too, I like my AVR-1907.

You can't really remove IE from Windows, it's essentially part of the core. Help relies on it, as well as thousands of other applications.

Or you could torrent the 1080p BR rips instead and play them through a PC connected to your HDTV.

We use it at my office, I haven't read the terms of use though.

I use http://cdburnerxp.se/

I'm not even sure the insurance is worth it. It's $7 per line and with the Blackberry Curve there is a $100 deductible if I need to get the phone replaced. Does anyone else pay for this?

I'm on a 2 line plan. 1500 shared minutes, unlimited texts, and unlimited data for $129.99. Actual bill is quite a bit more. I pay for insurance on both of the lines and then taxes make it come out to ~$167. Tax is $19.10.

I've been with Sprint for the past 8 years and have never had a billing issue. Their network seems quite solid to me as well.

Is that the same as military press? If so, that is an injury prone lift.

How much weight and what kind of lift?

I fail at those things all the time. There's gotta be a better way to identify that someone is human.

Dear god that's an expensive chip.

Maybe it's time to lengthen your upgrade cycle. I upgrade every 2-3 years. Spend you money on something else. May I suggest wine?

Have you tried connecting the monitor to different computer?

I never bothered to share this, but since Merc brought up his car, I feel the need now. My car was parked on the street for a good long while. I don't drive it because I take the train to work, walk most places, or we drive my girlfriend's car. A couple weeks ago the Chicago police came to my...

I gave you all the information necessary to fix the issue. Change your hosts file, it takes 30 seconds. If you're on OS X it's here: Mac OS X: /private/etc/hosts If you don't know how to do it, then: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27291 After reading your shitty posts for the last couple...

Almost all ISPs and forum software have IP blocklists.

The site hasn't been down. Just because you can't access something doesn't mean it's down. Please spend the next 48 hours reading the following pages rather than writing a pointless reply. DNS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_system TCP/IP...

Isn't FreeBSD binary compatible with Linux though?

Maybe the guy just wants to see what that much paper looks like.

Well, every night on the old server I would try to load up the page at about 11pm central time and it would take 30-60 seconds to load. I think they did backups around that time. So, rather than posting anything, I was mainly waiting.

It could be uda's crappy connection.

In that case, I would question whether two lower priced boxes running desktop hardware would be a better choice. This is the Google way, right?

You could try out phpBB3. From my research it seems to offer a lot of functionality and it's free and open source.

Do you have admin rights on it? I work in the IT department so I have admin rights, which is nice to be able to disable services that annoy me.

It really is a huge step in the right direction. From what I've read IE8 is now almost fully CSS 2.1 compliant. They have a long, long way to go to support CSS 3 though.

I think 5 seconds would help.

Flood control is a function of the forum software, not the server. Are you double clicking the "Submit Reply" button.

It all depends on what you mean by "broke." IE8 is the most standards compliant version of IE yet. However, existing websites that were coded to work in IE6/7 might not display correctly in IE8. All the sites I work on work perfectly in IE8. This is because I code to the standard and then...

Yeah, this is much, much better. Way to go Doug!

SteadyState will fix that...I'm now a firm believer in it after using it for the past few weeks. Just don't reboot often as boots now take forever.

Are those SLC or MLC?

Good Luck Doug! If you need anything shoot me an email.

I could build 9+ quad core systems for that price. Idiots is putting it lightly.

I think a lot of the problem with Firefox is that the UI is single threaded. Hopefully this will be fixed in a future release. Chrome sets the benchmark for this. Too bad it doesn't support add-ons yet. For a browser straight out the box Chrome is really nice.
