What do you think about IQ scores?

I think IQ is just a measure of your ability to problem solve. But I don't really think it's an indicator of future success.

Any runners dealing with peroneal tendonitis?

The girl I work for had the same thing you're talking about. It was the same tendon, except her inflammation was where the tendon connected to the bone under the foot. Everyone that she had plantar fasciitis. The only way she got over it was to stop running completely and let it heel. Hasn't...

Can my company see my gmail?

Operate under the assumption that they can. If you're working for a small office they probably don't monitor you (unless you work with classified information). I guess the real question isn't "can they" but "do they". Because there's always a way to monitor your activities on a company computer.

WTF? Massachusetts Doctor Refuses to Treat Obese Patients Who Weigh Over 200 lbs

I think following that policy is even more unethical: "I'm only treating you because you're more likely to have chronic issues and therefore bring me more money". In any case, obesity is becoming a bigger and bigger problem, we shouldn't be assuaging the situation, we should be nipping it in...

don't buy clothes from JCPenneys! RFID tags inside!

Lol. And it's not like your credit card info is linked to the RFID tag so I see no problem with it. I use the rfid technology at my local grocery stores all the time. In the city, almost every store has self-check out. It's actually more convenient at times.

Ubuntu and Windows

Very frustrated currently. I have a computer with Ubuntu installed and wanted to install Windows to replace it. But apparently, the method of doing so is completely over my head. Isn't there some point and click install option?!!?

Internet noobs. How I miss them.

Yep, that about sums it up, although I first got internet back when Prodigy was a big player and I was the only one I knew with an email address.

I've never seen Breaking Bad, but Dexter is awesome. Especially Season 1.

The only way it would be practically possible...

I was wondering the same thing. I saw some cached pages but apparently I missed a significant event. I hope everything works out for him though, it sounded like he needed help and quickly.

Sprint Upgrade

If you wait until your second year, you'll get a bigger credit towards your trade-in. At 12 months you get X amount to use, and at 24 months you get double that amount. Though, in six months there may be another phone out there that you'll like better. lol

Annoying Ebay seller - what do to?

As long as you get the item as described then don't worry about it. When you do your review, mention how he was unresponsive and give him neutral feedback. But I wouldn't try to pursue getting your money back as I don't think that would be a fight you would win, and honestly is it worth more of...

Windows 7 Aero is crashing

I've checked and double checked my power settings and they are all set to "optimized for performance/appearance" options, so it shouldn't be trying to save power where it can. I'm going to search for a driver update and will post back if it helped the problem. Hardware: Sony Vaio with...

Windows 7 Aero is crashing

The Desktop Window Manager has encountered a fatal error (0x8007000e) I think that's the one that applies. There are 6 of these errors today alone.

Samsung plasma tv burning in

so it seems that IR comes with the territory with plasma tvs? that stinks. I have a burn-in utility that comes with the tv, but that just solves the symptom not the cause, so I've had to run it pretty often when I'm watching tv or playing video games. Do LCD tvs have the same problem with IR?

Worst Oil Change Ever? Oh Boy!

That sucks. A similar thing happened to a friend of mine except she went to Midas and the engine stalled in the middle of a blizzard, the day before Christmas.

Samsung plasma tv burning in

I got a good deal on a flat screen Samsung plasma tv. From day one if an image displayed for longer than one minute it would burn in. The burn in was never permanent but it persisted for a couple minutes (longer if the burn-in was black or white text). I thought this was a facet of the tv being...

Windows 7 Aero is crashing

I've had Windows 7 for over 2 years and have had little problem with it but now recently my Aero settings will just crash for no reason and revert to a basic view. The only way to fix it is to run the troubleshoot utility. Why is this happening all of the sudden and what can I do to fix it?

Any iPhone user planning to skip the "iPhone 5" version ??

i'll be leaving the apple family for something completely different, but I haven't decided what yet. I just don't want a phone that doesn't fit in my pocket and it seems the iPhone 5 will be bigger than the 4s.
