Been using that for 5+ years now, just upgraded a few weeks ago. Still gotta do the wife's PC too :huh:

Must say still some spam get's through, but that's usually because it has (one of) my e-mail addresses as the sender, that's the new fashion (again) in spam-land I guess :mad:
It probably get's through because I have it set at Normal Aggressiveness, but I have the standard plugins enabled except for the DCC filter, that's been very slow ever since the first version I ever used. Might need to re-enable it and try again, my connection speed is a lot better now ;)

the only DVD player we had was/is built into the old TV that will be getting hauled off this Saturday
-Stoic Joker (November 23, 2011, 06:57 AM)
But for something like $40 or $50 you'll have a plain DVD player, with hdmi output, so that shouldn't be much of an issue

It will need 'a couple' of HDMI input connectors, as you'll be connecting from cable set-top box, harddisk recorder, network mediaplayer, computer, videotape player (probably on SCART), and hen some...

Did you install the driver first, and then inserted the USB connector?

If not, uninstalling and disconnecting, reboot, re-install, then connect could help. (Old-fashioned USB installation procedure)

I'd go for a pretty good scan of the image at 600 DPI, and have that printed on the canvas. The texture of the canvas makes it relatively coarse, so I'd expect the extrapolation not to hurt the quality of the final print.

It's just info available from the printer driver, but not query-able elsewhere, as far as I found. And it does sometimes change based on OS or after a driver update :o

and it updates automatically alongside your Windows
-Jibz (November 17, 2011, 01:29 AM)
... unless you're behind a proxy, in that case it'll update about 1 out of 10 times successfully, even though Windows Update works like a charm >:(

It's Avast for me, does a definitions-update about every 4 hours, and the yearly 'license upgrade' is painless from within the application, entering a non-existent e-mail address is accepted without a hitch ;)

You could check it out for a quite cold place (I just found some rather cold North American place :)) : (metric/Celcius)
[Select]
http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=4224&u=c
The data looks rather OK to me, having all kinds of negative numbers in it?

Skwire Empire / Re: Release: sWeather (tray-based weather app)
« Last post by Ath on November 15, 2011, 03:33 PM »
There is a small chance that sWeather is not entirely up to some winter-weather conditions, over here in the metric system-world.
Now that it's freezing during the evenings and nights, sWeather doesn't show the minimum (Low) temperature if it's below 0 degrees centigrade:

Screenshot - 15-11-2011 , 22_32_19.png

The other temperature values all show negative values when needed, for as far as I can see.
Can't tell if It's also affecting the High temperature(s), as it's not that cold in some places yet :D

Screenshot - 15-11-2011 , 22_58_01.png

If I change the settings to non-metric it shows the expected figures for my location, but my brain doesn't comprehend the Fahrenheit numbers very well.

No need for any rush, but it would be nice if it got fixed.

I found this shell-extension, but it's rather old and 32 bit only: http://www.cushat.co.uk/di/ (and there's another s.e. on that site adding a column in Windows Explorer)
And that link comes from this thread in the AUGI forums, that also reveals some interesting info on how to determine the version :)

And this AutoCAD Blog entry shows all known release numbers, so we can guess/ interpolate the correct AC10xx numbers 8) and all file-identifiers are in a list a bit lower on the page :up:

For those concerned, iBuildApp, the service Stephen used, appears legit and non-evil
-mouser (November 14, 2011, 04:14 PM)
That's the part I was the least worried about :) It's more that the app is rather big (1.35 MB) for the features it offers, but it's good to start with something, and leave room for improvement :tellme:
