Just another clueless web designer putting up an open relay form. I thought I'd seen the last of these back in the 1990s! I'm sure the web site in question has been blacklisted by all the major DNSBL lists by now.

It was fook'n good! Did you not feel like saying fook a lot after watching it?

I'm actually pretty good at finding my way around when alone, the problem is if someone else is driving I tend to not pay attention to the route we're taking.

This got really embarrassing when I first started driving (I didn't start driving regularly until I was in my 20s because frankly I didn't need a car until then) because I would make ridiculous wrong turns in areas I'd been travelling around regularly for years.

I have a tendency to explore off the beaten track which definitely helps in learning how to navigate.

I'll agree with other posters, I moved from the UK to the US and was screwed up for several months because the stars where in a different place (relatively speaking).

I recall buying a 512Mb thumb drive in 2004 for something approaching $60. Now you can pick up 2Gb ones at Wal-Mart for $15. I've ditched USB thumb drives now I have an SD converter since those cards are even cheaper.

They're useful if I want to transfer large files from work to home since they can be a little touchy about me throwing gigabytes of data over the network, but beyond that they spend most of their time gathering dust.

Why they post that is beyond me. Serves no purpose.

Having interviewed for a position at the postal training center, they used PHP on Apache and Solaris for the OS (Oracle for the DB).

I'm not sure which training location they are talking about but one of the main ones (Postal Training Center is in Norman, OK).

I read about it somewhere. Said it actually raised temps 2-3ÂF while in operation.

My baby toys are at my parent's house and my nephews play with them. The Fisher Price ones from the 70s have survived nearly 40 years being played with by dozens of kids and are still good as new! They will probably be excavated intact by some future society thousands of years from now, long after the rest of our civilisation has crumbled.

So go to reddit, you can reply more than 1-2x per hour there.

Oh here you go, just as an update to see that the monitor doesn't actually do what you said:

1280x720.

1400x1050 isn't a "wide screen", it's 4:3. A wide screen display at that resolution would be 1680x1050.

But you're obviously a friggin genius and couldn't see through a technical error on the site. I guess google doesn't make you intelligent after all.

Almost!

There's a great interview by Dan Lane with a chap from Sonim about the phone / Land Rover deal over at The Really Mobile Project. It's a few weeks old if that tells you anything about the /. story! They drove around the Land Rover test track with it attached to one of the wheels, so it got to be spun around, submerged, and I think at one point they drive over it too.

In spite of all the many controversies his music was groundbreaking and inspired multiple generations. If the allegations against him are true, well he's already paid the price now and there's nothing we can do about it.

Let's not forget a larger than usual number of celebrities and notables died in the last few days also. A sad week for the entertainment industry as a whole.

Up until I was 7 years old we lived in an old house with an upstairs attic that had the same floorspace as the two bedrooms combined. You could only get up there with a stepladder. I remember it as this big room that hadn't been decorated in decades so the wallpaper was peeling and the carpet was all torn up. No electricity other than a light. The only furniture was some old mattresses we pulled up there and an ever rotating supply of toys.

Coolest. Den. Ever.

The new owners turned it into a third bedroom. Idiots.

Well, depends on what you call "primary".

-My laptop at work gets shut down every day but it's not technically a reboot, it gets "rebooted" whenever I install a patch or software that needs it.

-My 2008 box which I also use as my desktop I reboot only if I really, really have to since it has so many VMs running on it. In practise it starts acting weird if I leave it on for more than a couple of months and needs to be rebooted. Probably a memory leak somewhere.

-My UNIX boxes gets rebooted about twice a year if an important patch comes out, or I'm testing something.

I gave up the penis growing max uptime game years ago, I hit 450 days on a Linux box once and it only went down after a powercut. I'd rather have a current security patch, thanks.
