An elderly man went to his doctor and said, 'Doc, I think I'm getting senile.. Several times lately, I have forgotten to zip up.'
'That's not senility,' replied the doctor. 'Senility is when you forget to zip down.'

You can't embed using https. Just get rid of that s and it works.

@Deozaan: Thanks!

An elderly man goes into a brothel and tells the madam he would like a young girl for the night. Surprised, she looks at the ancient man and asks how old he is.

'I'm 90 years old,' he says.

'90!' replies the woman. 'Don't you realize you've had it?'

'Oh, sorry,' says the old man. 'How much do I owe you?'

An elderly man walks into a confessional. The following conversation ensues:

Man: 'I am 92 years old, have a wonderful wife of 70 years, many children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Yesterday, I picked up two college girls, hitch-hiking. We went to a motel, where I had sex with each of them three times.'

Priest: 'Are you sorry for your sins?'

Man: 'What sins?'

Priest: 'What kind of a Catholic are you?'

Man: 'I'm Jewish.'

Priest: 'Why are you telling me all this?'

Man: 'I'm 92 years old ..... I'm telling everybody!'

“We going right into the heart of Amazon’s mainline business,” says Bill Hilf, the general manager of Microsoft’s cloud operation.

Microsoft has long offered its own cloud services, but these were a little different than what Amazon offered the world — they didn’t give you as much freedom to run whatever software you wanted to — and now, with Windows Azure Infrastructure Services, it’s providing that freedom.

I thought with someone else's blog post, you just had to make proper attribution to the original author and site. Didn't think you had to get permission. Do you?

I like the arguments you can pass into DuckDuckGo with your search term, i.e., "Mark Zuckerberg !g" to search first on Google, or "Dungeons & Dragons !w" to search about AD&D on Wikipedia.

emphasis added:

Yes, there are lots of sharing services. But here’s the thing, they don’t actually share the content. They share links to content. VERY different.

    If you want to take an article from one site and publish it on another, you have to find a person, get permission, and then manually copy it. Assuming you don’t break all the formatting in the process, you’re still not in good shape because you still have to worry about search engines seeing it as duplicate content.

With Repost, I can just copy-and-paste an embed code into my post, and then you get the full article, with all the formatting and images preserved.

^ +1 to what Steve Avery said in his OP in this thread. We agree completely on how to best use Macrium.

I use MSE and EMET constantly, with less frequent uses of SB-SD, and MBAM. Those along with twice monthly Macrium images form the basis of my PC defense.

Here's my 2 cents' worth: regular images made with Macrium Reflect (free edition is sufficient). And be sure to have thumb drive and CD with Macrium Boot PE, so you can get access to your images, even when you're PC is hosed (which it most likely will be, if you're wanting to restore from an image). You can make the bootable rescue media from within Macrium:

Note: You may have to install Windows Automated Installation Kit from the Microsoft Download Center before you can create rescue media.

Another test of the Neevia Tech online compression linked to in my previous post:

I have a directory called /legal/ comprised of sub-directories and files (108 files in 18 sub-directories, and 36 of those files are PDFs. I compressed only the 20 largest of those 36 PDF files). The screenshot below shows the exact same /legal/ directory, zipped, at two different points in time, the 8th of this month (5 days ago), and the 13th (today). No files were added or removed. The only difference is the compression, today, of 20 of the 36 pdf files within:

So, the more recent zip file has "shrunk" by 2.08 Mb. Consider, too, that only 20 of the 108 files were compressed, and that in creating the PDFs initially from LibreOffice, I used relatively conservative resolution (300 dpi) -- the majority of the 20 compressed PDFs contained scanned images. Not shabby, especially considering that this /legal/ directory of mine will likely continue growing over the next few months (years?) {custody/medical issues re: 2 children with ex-spouse } Could add up to many Mb of saved space over a period of time...

I'm not specifically advocating this particular online compressor. Obviously it would be much more efficient to find a means of batch compressing PDFs with given settings.

I didn't investigate if the site can batch-compress, but below is a screenshot of (on top) an original scanned to PDF receipt and check and (2) below that the same file after medium-compression at 65% quality using Neevia Tech PDF Online Compressor. Reduced file size from 584 Kb to 430 Kb, a 26% decrease in file-size.

I use Defraggler myself.  Really great program that's small and remarkably fast.

Agree with you it's a great program. I like that, after the main Defrag runs, it gives you a list of stubborn files that are still somewhat fragrmented. Check those files you wish (or all of them with a single click to "Select All") and Defraggler will do its best to defrag these (usually quite large) files. It'll fail on some, but succeed on most.

LibreOffice 4.0.1 portable (which can also be run off your hard drive, just not installed in Program Files), comes in at full download at 99,797 Kb.

MSE has saved my bacon on a few occasions ... AND ... wait for it ... it's endorsed by EliTheComputerGuy.

Partial answer: Hamster Free eBook Converter does a passable job interconverting among mobi, epub, text, pdf, lit, etc. But I don't think you can manually specify font size. Of course, don't some PDF readers let you +/- the text-size?

^ Not a bad deal, Stephen, if you do the math...

My father is always wanting to save complete webpages of sites he comes across. Sometimes he has okay luck with "webpage complete" option in the Save As dialog options. But, some caveats from my own past experience: for relatively small webpages -- say pages that consist of only a handful of supporting files (.js, .gif, .png, etc), it works pretty well, although dad is so technically challenged that he's not sure where he saved the files to, and then he forgets that he has to keep the subfolder of support files in the same directory with the HTML page (dad is 78). For progressively more "involved" pages, doesn't work as well.

Over the years, I've found HTTrack to work well. The catch is that it has lots of options (how many levels deep do you want to recurse in pulling files from a website? How deeply do you want to plunge to extract links that may be buried way down in a website's hierarchy? HTTrack works pretty well if you're patient (it can take hours to download a complete website) and if you configure things reasonably before you press "Go".

There have been products that try to take some of the complexity out by allowing you to capture an entire web page in its entirety (images, links, text), such as Surfulator, Evernote WebClipper, but these are using, I think, database backends and not separating elements of a page out into the constituent parts.

So, what sort of webpages are you saving (from personal websites, or business websites, or perhaps hobbyist sites {dad wants all these gun-enthusiast pages/sites saved in their entirety, then he buries them in three sub-folders deep of organization on his ... Desktop --> C:\Users\Paul\Desktop\Saved Pages\Guns\GunDigest\Sept08\... you get the idea; and forgets them for all eternity).

So give us your short- and long-term objectives in saving these, and also whether they're always just pages, or sometimes entire sites or sections thereof.

Great article!
