Or use a Chromecast ($30) and stream right from Google Music if you go that route. You can also select music that you want to be available "Offline" (Add to Queue I believe it's called) I believe to prevent data overage. Streaming services really don't use that much data, if you're only using them for maybe an hour at…

As always I have to suggest MusicBee (media player). It does tagging right in the program from MusicBrainz and freedb. Also it can pull album art from various sources or you can manually apply it like I do from a hi-res album cover site (http://www.albumartexchange.com/). You can also do a batch sweep and rename and…

Yeah but she's rich.

My friend's mom makes $20,000 a day from home! Find out how at

Most major manufactures have utilities built in to update drivers and pre-installed software. HP has the Support Assistant, Toshiba has the Service Station, etc. It's a great way to get updates, check your warranty, do diagnostics, without needing to hunt all over the vendor's site. All other unwanted stuff seems to…

Seems like uninstalling stuff you don't want would be easier. The rescue media is usually stored on a partition now. It restores from a WIM file (usually), then tasks in all the additional software. Seems fine to me.

Why?

Great...now I need to make a pie.

I've had Anti-virus programs, specifically our Corporate Trend Micro pickup the Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder as a virus (even if it's not). The BelArc Advisor is also a good program to see keys.

Yeah that's a real conundrum.

Why not just poop in the shower? Eliminate the cost of toilet paper, and the time it takes to sit on the toilet.

I'd love to write for you guys, but I'm not sure if I'm up to par or be able to dedicate as much time as needed for a full time or maybe even a part time job.

While I do enjoy Pandora, as a music aficionado (self-proclaimed), there are far too many predictable tracks and repeats. If I have to hear that damn M83 song again, I'll van Gogh my ears.

Completely agree with your second bullet there. My family never had a lot of money, in fact we were on food stamps at one point. So things that I wanted as a teenager were going to come from my wallet. At 12 I got a paper route, at 14 I started work at a local "fast food" restaurant. Of course in those days I was…

I don't disagree at all with contributing to an IRA. Keep a separate account for savings (see emergency fund above). How many of us have uttered "I really wish I would have saved more or started earlier". I think IRA is one of them, especially if your company matches in any way.

Also if you're an IT person or the delegated IT guy in the family and you are always installing Avast; there are command line switches you can use that disable some of the stuff by default. Toss it in a batch file and let it rip.

Yeah I don't think I could or would want to make a "living" off of it. I like to write casual opinion pieces or on occasion I write posts that I think other people could use for help. One of these would be my how to make ringtones for your phone using iTunes.

Is it possible to make money doing blogging and "freelancing" without being an english major or really a writer at all? I enjoy doing it sometimes but I only post stuff on my personal site.

Websites that you purchase and do very little with including the hosting...

My dad had a dot matrix ribbon printer...You were more likely to change out your family than that printer.
