Living Room / Re: Show us a photo of your mutt or other creatures..

Dakota.jpg

130 Lbs. of pure bred European Shepherd.  Meet "Dakota".  The owners left the veterinary clinic with a $600+ bill, and did not have enough room for him, so kept him in a bedroom most of the time.  I explained to the owners the error of their ways and "rescued" him.

The veterinarian is a friend and our kids go to school together, and she knows Sheena's History, so she told us about Dakota.  

He also understands Basic German Commands:

    
  •     Achtung! (Ahk-toong’): Watch! Attention!
  •    Aus! (Ows): Out! Drop It! Let Go!
  •    Bleib! (Blibe): Stay!
  •    Bringen! : Bring! Fetch!
  •    Fass! (Fahs):Attack! Take hold!
  •    Fuss! (Foos): Heel!
  •    Gib Laut! : Bark! Speak!
  •    Hier! : Here! Come!
  •    Hopp! : Up! Jump!
  •    Nein! (Nine):No!
  •    Pass auf! (Pahs owf): Pay attention! Heads Up!
  •    Pfui! (Foo-ey): Shame! Stop That! Drop That!
  •    Platz! (Plots): Down! (Place)
  •    Setz! , Setzen! (Zetze’n): Sit!
  •    Such! (Zook): Search!
  •    Voran! (For-ahn): Go forward! Take the lead!
  •    Voraus! (For-ows): Go forward! Run out!

I set Gmail to check all my other accounts.  The filtering that Gmail provides is quite good.  Then just set Outlook to check your Gmail, and you are set.

Living Room / Re: What's your experience with 3rd party color inkjet ink replacement?
« Last post by y0himba on April 23, 2011, 07:37 AM »
I have had the best luck with http://private.abacus24-7.com

I have a Canon MX860 and the ink is extremely affordable.  The cartridges have always worked, and they have a chip in them.  Abacus has been around a very long time. The couple of times I called due to shipping issues (storm delays) they are polite and laugh with you on the line.  Good folks. They provide telephone support and you talk to a person.

http://private.abacu...ty.aspx?compat=22631 (My ink)

You can see that they are inexpensive.  My printer is AMAZING and does everything.  Has a dialing pad for faxes, all that good stuff.  

I cannot recommend the printer or Abacus enough.

I bought my wife the Kindle 3G, and it browses the web just fine, albeit in black and white.  She does Facebook, Gmail. and so forth on it.   She is the type who despises computers and electronics, yet she loves this thing.

General Software Discussion / Re: What the hell is OpenCandy?
« Last post by y0himba on March 10, 2011, 04:59 AM »
Plain and simple, OpenCandy doesn't bother me. I think it is a good medium between being invasive and generating revenue for software developers.  I honestly send no identifiable information then recommends a software, nothing is downloaded, installed, no changes made to your system unless you choose to install it.

MSE detects it and pops up this dialog meant to scare people who have no idea what they are looking at, yet Bing is a partner with OpenCandy and is one of the things offered.  I hate adware, I despise software that installs on my system with other software, but this is not like that at all.

If I had a choice, it would not be there, but since developers need revenue, this is the way to go.  IMHO.

General Software Discussion / Re: Most Pirated Software?
« Last post by y0himba on February 24, 2011, 05:03 AM »
I cannot see why anyone would use pirated antivirus software.  If they can hack it to let people steal it, what else have they done to it? Just pay for what you own, sheesh.

(and we should consider that maybe one of the reasons that the giveaway of copies might have been a bit confusing is just because giving away copies is a bit unusual, compared to mailing out a customer their info once they purchase it.)
-mouser (February 10, 2011, 06:17 AM)

My point exactly.  They were very helpful once they learned of the issue.  Thanks Axialis and DonationCoder!

I got the same email as well. I wonder if they just were not prepared?  English doesn't seem to be the first language there so maybe a bit of miscommunication? Let's see how long it takes to get the link.

DC Gamer Club / Re: RIFT - MMORPG Beta Invite
« Last post by y0himba on January 26, 2011, 05:05 AM »
I tried the beta and absolutely hated it.  Repetitive and boring.  My 10 year old like it due to the ease of play, but there was no sense of accomplishment or challenge whatsoever, for me at least.

If I could program like you folks I would go with a multiplayer over the Internet 'Worms' type game.  The ones that are out there now are just not that great.  I would even be willing to pony up bandwidth for a central server for an in game server browser.

Living Room / Re: DeviantArt (Silverpop) and Gawker Media (Lifehacker/Gizmodo/etc.) compromised
« Last post by y0himba on December 14, 2010, 07:59 AM »
I recieved three emails.  One from Gawker/Lifehacker itself.  One from someone called "Hint", and this morning an email with bad grammar and poor spelling that imitated the email from Gawker/Lifehacker.  Luckily I never use the same password twice, and the email I usually register uses a different password.

I wonder, I am interested in downloading the torrent to see what they have on me in there, but don't want folks to think badly of me or think I am a malicious hacker.  What are the moralities in this instance? Opinions?

Also, you can go here: http://www.slate.com/id/2277768/ enter your username or email address and see if yours was among the information compromised.
