Which Linux Distro to get?

The learning curve is pretty steep. Here's a distro selector that's somewhat useful. http://www.zegeniestudios.net/ldc/index.php?firsttime=true I've been trying to wean myself off windows for over a year. I've installed mandrake a few times, slackware once and just finished putting in...

How about a link on my pm page to sender's profile?

Yeah, that really doesn't save any clicks, but thanks - maybe someone knows a trick I don't. Otherwise I guess I'm hoping there might be a way the mods could put in a button on the pms list for senders profile. Similarly I'm hoping for a button on the profile for posts by author. As if the...

How about a link on my pm page to sender's profile?

It would sure save a mess of clicks when I'm responding to an offer (FS/FT/etc) in pm's if I could go straight to the senders profile. As it is now, I have to copy their id, search for posts by author, then go to a post, then click their profile. Please, somebody tell me an easier way...

Why do people hate the USA??

Well, After a bit of googling, I'm not convinced this is real. Been to gallup international and a few other sites. Here's what google says: related:english.pravda.ru/world/20/91/365/14434_poll.html - did not match any documents. I have plenty of opinions on the subject, but won't waste...

Actiontec GT701-WG DSL -> router vs -> hub

I have an Actiontec GT701-WG DSL "modem" that works fine (Qwest sucks). The tech support said "if you hook the ethernet out to a hub, it will give you grief and the only way to get good functioning will be to take out the hub and just go to a single pc. If you need more pc's use the wireless."...

HELP! Is my mobo dead?

The standoffs are little metal posts that stand up about 1/4" from the case and have internal threads that the screws holding the motherboard go into. New cases sometimes come with more of these than your board needs and one of the unused ones can touch circuitry on the motherboard and short...

HELP! Is my mobo dead?

Well, you do need memory, and I agree, you want to see the fan and any leds on the board come on, then it needs to post. You can go ahead and try my troubleshooting sequence and if you get the right combination then you should see the board wake up. Another thing I forgot to mention is try...

HELP! Is my mobo dead?

My motherboard troubleshooting goes like this: Basic assumption: you need to turn off the PSU and let it drain down before parts swapping. If the PSU doesn't have an off switch either unplug it or turn off the power strip. You need to use a wrist strap or ground yourself to the chassis very...

Md. forces Wal-Mart to spend more on health

Wal mart is just the most effective at getting employees, government, suppliers, etc to join in the "race to the bottom." Their only motive is profit and whatever they can get away with in terms of starvation wages, overseas sweatshops, polluting manufacturers they will do it. No moral...

I'm in the dog house tonight..... Pics added

Well, I know lacquer thinner will remove sharpie, but it's toxic as hell and will probably remove the dye from the carpet too, so don't try this unless you're willing to screw up the carpet worse than it is.

GRRRRR, these apartment management people are SCUM.

I agree, I've rented a lot and had all kinds. One friend of mine, the owner wanted to paint the place and paid for him to stay in a motel while the job was being done. Another refused to refund any of our deposit even though we cleaned the place up nicer than when we got it.

Anyone live in/traveled to London?

I agree with others. UK is expensive and London is at the top of the price ranges. Week long tube or rail passes, fly/drive packages are both very good ideas and can be had pretty cheap, buy them here before you leave, some of the best tourist prices are only available outside the UK. Don't...
