#18, "edgewise" is a colloquilism that can be left out and not change the meaning. Pretending requires imagination. It is to make believe. A child might pretend to be a cowboy or astronaut. Like how you pretend to not be Canadian. :D :P

It is irrelevant what we mostly taked about. It is natural to talk about what you have in common or have previously discussed. The more you get to know someone the more things there are to talk about, ala SF. There is really only so much you can talk about in an hour. You are focusing too much...

On the one hand I'm glad to learn that it's not a technical limitation. On the other hand...

You're preaching to the choir, brother. I've never seen so many grown men weeping as the day I strolled through the fabrication floor. They won't let me back out there anymore as it kills production for the rest of the day.

Sometimes I wear a bow-tie. :D

I go to work bare-chested. It impresses the chicks ... and the boilermakers and machinists.

Steve has a cable modem. ADSL is different from HDSL, IDSL and VHDSL and requires different equipement. You are the first person I know of to suggest that ADSL is artificially bandwidth capped.

Both of the multi-(m/b)illion dollar companies I have worked for most recently included the mail servers in the backup rotations. When a suit is filed the companies must stop reusing tapes until the suit reaches resolution. That is all.

I am 5 blocks from the CO and I get the maximum 1.5. The top rated speed is good for 1500ft or something like that.

And yet you spend so much time here. This is a social environment, you know. There is plenty of enough dichotomy in what you have written. The guy I spoke to on the phone is not asocial. You clearly are in the middle of an identity crisis. You need to figure out who you want to be. Be brave.

Congrats Pradeep! So it wasn't just the hunting bringing you to NY.

Ahh, so the real solution is to remove the graphical interface. It's the unix way!

Tops Bill, Tops.

In MSs visual nomenclature, they use radio buttons for options that are mutually exclusive. The reason you have the option to deny is because it overrides all other allow permissions without much complication.

A)Do you have a domain? If not, you must create a user on the "server" with the same name and password as is used on the "workstation". You must do this for each user. You then put all the users in a group and give the group the rights to the folders. Having a domain minimises the workload when...

:) I was going to comment on the fact that I had set up an enterprise fax software solution that would be too expensive. Similar to Rightfax, it's called VSIfax.

That's like saying there used to be a distinction between something and something else that's fundamentally different. :)

The article talks about their solution being comfortable up to 56 drives and able to take two lost drives with no data loss.

How many drives would you put into a RAID5 array before you decided that the probability of more than one drive failing was too great. HP has decided the number is 14. And their solution to this problem is: Advanced Data Guarding

I wonder if winrar is getting confused and trying to compress files that are essentially incompressable. These are jpegs right. I also use NTFS compression on my personal drive. I so low maintenance. I have had zips become corrupted after moving them around. AD, you might be able to get an...

It could be heat related. Heat can cause a cracked solder joint to expand and lose contact.

Ouch. Elder ribs are sensitive, eh.

Situation: This document describes what you need to do to get Ghost to work with your Serial ATA drive controller. Solution: Ghost is compatible with the new Serial ATA standard. If you are experiencing problems such as Ghost hanging, locking up, or freezing when loading, the problem lies with...

Speedy for me right now.

Possibly the index service?

I think I would have gone with an eye with a sharp stick in it. Couldn't find a picture though. Hi mubs, let me introduce myself. I'm Mr. Obnoxious.

I buy my batteries locally, at an electronics supply store. The last battery I purchased was for an APC and cost $15. I think it was a 240 or 420 VA.

Like if you were talking about animals in heat.

I had to go with the apple fritter just because of the volume. I think KK plain donuts are the best of all the donuts I've had. Although there is a bakery walking distance to work that have very good pasteries. At a previous job I worked at a baking company. Samples were erverywhere and free. I...

I have to admit to not realizing the definition of buggered. Not that it was in my daily vocabulary anyway.

We have ~15 Brother MFC-8500 and 8600 all-in-one devices. We have not had trouble out of any of them and some have been here for more than a year. They have a seperable toner cart. and drum and the machine keeps track of when the drum needs to be replaced (by page counter and you have to...

Where's the wolf whistle emoticon? PS. I also wish we had an emoticon that looked like a quarter-note or eighth-note.

What does the error say?

i, I had considered converting my stuff to rack mount but even though work gave my a 7' enclosed rack I still could not justify the cost. The BTX form factor was just announced, would you buy all new cases? I have determined that the most efficient use of my money is to invest in... crap I...

I know. Think outside the block. :lol:

Merc, you have a lovely list of reasons not to visit. The good news is the list is moot. Nobody who cares about you cares if you spend the evening in the bathroom. I mean no body cares in a good way. By making the offer Fushigi is accepting that you might accidently burn the house down. And, if...

Well, you sure don't sound like you described yourself even mid-day. PS. It took me a couple tries before my cell phone VM message did not have a voice crack in it. :)

Well, since the cat is out: about six or seven months ago Buck was harrassing Tannin about not selling to the US. I thought it would be pretty funny to discuise my voice and try to place an order and then have it sent to TN. Unfortunately, though I tried calling literally multiple times every...

Why would Tannin care? He's not gonna buy anything else anyway.

Although, understandably, the same "magic" that gets the same power out of both systems is likely make the waveform look magical. I see your point. Square-waves...fast fourier transforms...EE AHHHHH *runs and curles up in a ball after reliving repressed memories.

Assume it's the same. I know there will be a certain margin of error. I'm just looking for a ballpark.

we => he

I had a high school friend join the Marines after graduating from UVA specificly so we could lead people. ie, to be a leader.

With both being non-turbo? Assume weight and everything else is the same. You think the torque and power curves would be roughly the same shape but with the higher displacement engine curve shifted toward the lower RPMs?

What would be the power-feel difference between a 2.0L and 2.5L non-turbo engine with the same amount of horsepower and torque(eg. mid-60s for both)?

http://news.com.com/2100-1046-1015096.html?tag=nl PS, If folks won't install security patches, why would they install virus updates.

If you hire on with the university, you should get reduced cost for classes. Maybe 9 hours free a semester.

Merc, is there even a small amount of comfort or relief you would feel if you were "confined"? What does being institutionalized mean to you? Describe being institutionalized/what its like being institutionalized (since you haven't been, imagine)?

Although I can read it fine, there were a couple of wrods I had to read twice.
