You can go ahead and set everything up at dyn and just not change dns at your registrar yet.

Yes, that's what I use too.

Custom DYNDNS supports updating from an agent.

My cousin is watching the original ST series straight though wih his young son. So now I've seen a couple episodes.

Do SSDs do any prefetch read-caching or include any cache memory in the packaging? I am assuming that flash is slightly slower than RAM (CMOS?).

I have a WRT54GL at home and have never had any noticeable problem. That said I am not on it for half hours at a time. Signal strength issue? Maybe this has been brought up before but I just got an 802.11n router at home and have learned that iP4 will only connect at 2.4GHz. Not really a...

Yes, some people stopped worrying about it decades ago. And they haven't worried about much since.

What are the funniest SSIDs you've seen or set up?

The cardboard is called matting.

I really liked what I saw of SU but it disappeared for a time and I forgot about it.

Jaja, si senor. :) Mine came from Thomas too.

Timed chargers were very common before NiMH and are cheaper to produce so they are often bundled with batteries as a kit to keep the price down. That Sanyo you linked to is not one you want. There are others that will work I presume but I have never heard anything bad about Maja. I personally...

Any scifi show is going to have a limited viewership when the males cast is more attractive than the female cast.

"I've got a heat wave in my pants....and baby its all for you." That just might work.

Pretty interesting. http://blogs.computerworld.com/15562/ibm_power7_thumbs_nose_at_intel_itanium_9300_tukwila In 2008 IBM gave Itanium 5 years max.

I didn't either. But I did just discover that on XP you can use the same key combination to jump to a particular tab in Chrome.

Perhaps it is all the buying you do in random far-flung places, say when traveling.

That's one gaming machine with a severe need of a turbo button!

How long would you like it to run? What is the least wind in which you would like it to remain stationary? Define what is reasonable.

Oh... You were serious. :) On the one device I looked at it literally acts as a WAP/Internet gateway. So you just choose the correct ssid and bam! The tricky part being that if you connect it to a computer the device turns into a dedicated connection and turns off the WAP.

Can they be virtualized?

<Whimper> :)

Last I heard, the drug dealers call him sir. :)

In Merc's neighborhood I think the wife beater is de rigueur.

The hotspot acts as a bridge and router so treat it accordingly.

Yeah, I had a couple of things shipping out of New Jersey a couple weeks ago take twice as long.

Does a projector's image suffer at short distances? I'm thinking fisheye-like.

Ok, now that I've looked at the picture... I would put the TV on the opposite wall as the fireplace with the couch close enough that you don't have to go crazy on TV size and otherwise not blocking the door. This large piece of furniture will tend to separate the room into two functional areas...

Is the mantle removable or replaceable?

Seriously.

It is apparant that what it takes to cause burn-in is unknown here as well as what it takes to prevent it. In 2008, people were talking about accidentally leaving a static image on screen for 3 days that did not result in permanent burn-in. If it was such an acute problem then the manuf...

I'm not sure that is wholly true. So, make sure they submit payment with the actual address they want it shipped to. Although you there are instructions to check the eligibility I can't find what you have to do to make it partially or fully elligible. What a pain in the butt for people who...

Yeah, after my last post I was thinking, "What the heck thread am I in?" I get lost all the time.

If you've ever mis-timed the business and showered first you know the tissue just doesn't hold up. I expect the bidet would be a part of a similar problem. I suppose a dedicated ass towel would help. :)

Anybody used a bidet? I just don't see how it could be as effective as paper.

What? I don't think so.

Sure, once I have his money what do I care where he wants me to ship it to as long as it is inside the US and unless it costs you more? As far as you are concerned its like shipping to his friends house because he will be traveling and living there during the time of the sale. I would probably...

Somebody's gotta be first!

TomTom did not have my street listed so as to be able to find my house. The street is 3 miles long and over 100 years old. I'd say the maps need an update.

Bleh, marketing. Laser and copier paper is interchangeable. You know that. :)

If you're inside posting, who's outside keeping the grapes warm. If prices spike I'm retroactively blaming you. :p

I was at a client once when they were served. None of the management was there and when I called them they wanted me to accept them. Not only would the sheriff (who was a very nice laid-back guy) not let me accept them he would not let the owner accept them. Apparently when you establish a...

Bummer.

Cool! Next train the DVD player to make you beer.

I especially like that Crucial memory has a life time transferable warranty which makes used sticks valuable. Does Mushkin, Kingston or Corsair offer the same?

Yeah Merc, but at this point your data that doesn't change severly dwarfs the data that does. I'll eventually put some drives at a friends house and online backup to them.

I wonder if testing with iometer would have revealed this problem rather than risking real data.

I'm glad you were able to get to the root of the problem. The remaining issue here is that there are real world problems that memory specific tests will not reveal. As a diagnostician that is difficult to stomach.

Have you looked at the Sonos equipment?

It benefits me in that It keeps the complexity of my finances to a minimum. The reward would need to worth the hassle.
