A potable compressor and 10 minutes is all you need to plug a tire... Just so you know, tire shops HATE all you fix-a-flat/slime using people. That stuff is disgusting, and when breaking a tire off the rim, there is no way to not get it all over you. Considering those guys are helping you keep your car on the road,…

And all this time I've been wasting my money with a food processor... It's mad! MAD I tell you!

Agreed! My local haunt is a nice quiet bar where I can play pool and have a drink... Once a month they have a live local band play.

I originally wanted to be cremated, and have my ashes packed into a gutted Mac Mini Server, but then they went and made them half the size. I doubt all my ashes would fit in these new ones.

But why lug it around. How many times will you actually need the disk while you are out? Use the disk at home, or at most rip the disk at home if you must. Then the digital file is there for out and around.

You dont need to re-buy digital versions of your disks. Use Disk Utility to make disk images from the disks, and store the disk images somewhere convenient. Mac sees disk images as exactly the same as disks.

Actually, downloading them meant he could get off without needing to be on the internet.

LOL Just realized I referred to Yahoo as a browser... Too late to edit now. Good lord, I haven't thought about Netscape in AGES.

LOL Well, I know BASH backwards and forwards, but Im only a couple months into learning C++, so I have a long way to go.

LOL Well done.

Interesting... In my browser I just type Gizmodo and hit enter. It automatically goes to Gizmodo.com. This is a useful tip I'll remember when Im on friends computers.

Agreed! Although, even programming isn't REALLY necessary to increase productivity beyond your basic computer user. Once I learned the intricacies of BASH, things got so much quicker for me. Of course, now I'm teaching myself C++, so we'll see if that further increases my productivity.

LMAO! That reminds me of my younger days, before I got interested in electronics and IT. Back when Yahoo was the browser of choice and I didn't yet understand URL's. [Yahoo.com] was my homepage, so I would search for [Google.com] from Yahoo.

My ISP will deny you service, as in completely shut you off, so you'd have to get internet from another company, if you are caught downloading illegal files 4 times. The first 3 they shut you off till you call them so they can warn you, then you are turned right back on.

I used to have a U3 thumb drive. I HATED those things... For those who might not know, they had a built in software that would auto-run when you inserted the drive, and you couldn't erase it because the software was on a write protected section of the drive and seen as an emulated cd drive.

It depresses me when I see people who text at 130 gwam, but then "hunt and peck" when they sit in front of a real keyboard.

LOL This is one post I can agree with. Getting the news involved is kind of overkill... Personally I'd have had her holding the sign to impress upon her that it's wrong, AND she'd be working off her debt in extra chores, but blasting it on the 6 oclock news? I kinda think that was just a crappy way for a parent to…

Alot of people these days seem to believe they need to be their childs best friend. It's a plan that can't actually work. My girlfriends daughter is about to turn 13 and she yells at me all the time about not being her friend. I just tell her that I'm not her friend. There's plenty of time to be friends once they are…

The woman is a rock star. I personally think that people these days are far too "oh the poor child". We have an entire generation, in fact we've had SEVERAL generations of people growing up to be doctors and lawyers and all manner of respectable individual, and you can guarantee that their parents spanks them and…
