Do they allow lane splitting in CT?? ...Remember I'm on a motorcycle.-Stoic Joker (December 12, 2014, 12:25 PM)
No amount of leather is gonna help you on I-95. ... any state.-crabby3 (December 12, 2014, 01:00 PM)
OTOH I have split small packs at 120mph on I-95 more than once ... But don't tell Crabby3..-Stoic Joker (December 12, 2014, 02:33 PM)

Teen Tattoos McDonald's Receipt on His Arm, a Week Later Tattoos the Tattoo Receipt on His Other Arm-Arizona Hot (December 11, 2014, 04:40 PM)
Apparently "loyal" is Norweigian for "stupid."
No. I was just drawing parallels - the smells are very different. I like them both.-nosh (December 11, 2014, 08:26 AM)
Ok, this is kind of gross...
My daughter sent me this link.
Answer the quiz and post your results.
Here is my disgusting results :There are about 2,561,580 germs on your keyboard right now!
That's equivalent to the number of germs on 512 toilet seats.-app103 (January 31, 2008, 09:53 PM)
BTW, I know this sounds twisted but I've always loved the way the spray smells... - Kinda like some people liking the way petroleum products smell.-nosh (May 27, 2013, 10:35 AM)
Reload that machine with Windows 7 64-bit home premium or professional, and use either Chrome or Firefox.
Without even changing the hardware, you'll experience computing like never before.
Though it probably would be worth considering a new build. Something in the Haswell family from Intel with 8-16GB of ram and 64-bit Windows 7. Windows 8 is not recommended for desktops unless you are building for a kid who is used to smarphones, and Windows (9) 10 is probably going to be a disaster.-SeraphimLabs (December 09, 2014, 12:03 PM)
Telling someone to reload their machine with a different operating system doesn't seem like the desired solution to a particular software problem that's just emergent.-wraith808 (December 09, 2014, 12:26 PM)
Well... This is one of the few (if not only) areas where front wheel drive cars are way more fun that rear wheel drive cars. You see rear wheel drive cars are considerable more "directionally stable" which I accidentally verified when my dog decided to stumble across the shifter (shoving the car in reverse) in a Camaro we had at (once again) about 50 mph. Outside of a rather huge and quite confusing cloud of tire smoke...nothing exciting really happened.-Stoic Joker (July 14, 2013, 12:59 PM)
I can't seem to view any spoilers here. Is it a DC Personal Preference or my machine?
my info: Windows Vista Home Premium-SP2 Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T6400 @ 2.00GHz 4GB RAM 64-bit Windows Internet Explorer 9
I presume it is something i have turned off somewhere because they used to work.-crabby3 (December 04, 2014, 07:58 AM)
... so no one has any ?-crabby3 (December 08, 2014, 08:10 AM)
Not ignoring you. But (in my case) I'm so out of touch with Vista and its security model (it has been awhile) that I doubt I could offer much in the way of useful advice for a machine still running it. There's bound to be another holdout here that can suggest something.
You might try reposting your query in the Living Room or General Software section. Posting 101 is a bit of a backwater at DoCo. It doesn't get a lot of technical questions.

(Sigh). Easy on the eye, but hard on the grammar. So much for crowd-sourcing of knowledge...
At least the spelling is OK.-IainB (December 07, 2014, 03:35 AM)
Oh, and that's a grammar error that gives me the same physical reaction as nails on a blackboard!-app103 (December 07, 2014, 05:08 AM)
.. so you must cringe a lot when you're here?-crabby3 (December 07, 2014, 05:28 AM)
I cringe a lot, in general. I don't keep track of where, any more.-app103 (December 07, 2014, 05:50 AM)

From the Bwahaha Dept:
I've spent a few hours having fun watching a couple of security guys doing exposes of the 3rd rate Windows support scam. (Troy Hunt and someone from MalwareBites).
They're entertaining enough, with a mostly predictable "formula".
Then this one came along. Troy Hunt again. Except this one takes a twilight zone ending. You're welcome to listen to the whole thing, but if you want to just skip to the fun part, go to time stamp 53:00. After poking about Western Union and failing at the whole credit card bit of the scam, the guy struggles to spell "Google Chrome" a few times. This part is like a prologue so you can get settled into the whole atmosphere.
Then we get to the fun stuff.
At 54:40, the guy opens ... Notepad. He types up his own "temporary form". Laughable, but so far still "in formula".
A bit past 56:00, Troy begins his wind down by typing in total junk. Notice the guy still has team viewer on, ... and isn't reading it, but rather still reading his script.
As a public service to Renny, he is advised to take a restroom visit at 58:00.
The rest is ... epic!
