Peek-A-Boo Barn, Peek-A-Boo Jungle, Kids Song Machine. These are a huge hit with the little guys!

When you are hired to work for Radio Shack they make you sign an agreement that ANY inventions that you come up with while employed by them are their property. They also state that any future inventions that MAY have been thought up during your time working for Radio Shack also belong to them. This includes your own time. This is any invention during the employment period and any time in the future.

I have a 30' HDMI cable fished through my wall and crawlspace from my basement to my TV. My receiver said I needed to use 'High-Speed' cables and I was like BS! However, I was plagued by black screen and intermittent video for weeks. I finally purchased a 'High-Speed with Ethernet' cable and have not seen the problem since. Granted, I still got the first 30' for $12 and the second for $20 on E-Bay so I am not paying those crazy prices. When running over long distances through a distribution device such as a receiver it seems to me that there is some merit to the high-speed claim.

...but is it BPA and Phthalate free??

I can see why they would do this. When I worked there people used to complain all the time that it is still called Radio Shack even though they really do not carry radios anymore. Back in the day it was a great store for car stereos and ham radio enthusiasts. Now they cater to neither. However, rebranding will likely hurt them more than help. Perhaps instead of rebranding they should once again stock some radios. They still have a ton of people who come in there looking for them.

We only use shielded cable with shielded RJ-45 ends. I have never seen these commercially made and I would guess that they are super expensive. Without grounded and shielded wire we experienced way more outages due to lightning and power surges and our APs would often lose sync due to RF interference bleeding through the wires. So I would absolutely only ever use my own personally made cables. In the past we just used cheap patch cables and they worked alright but we have had way less issues with cables that we have made.

Adderall is just speed. People have been tweeking for years. It is a combination of four amphetamine salts. Straight up legal speed. I have seen the effects of this drug first hand and you may as well be using Meth. Down with Adderall!!!

My first experience with an actual distro was The Auditor Collection...long before Backtrack. Backtrack is amazing though now. So much more developed.

If it is ran outdoors it will need to be replaced as even the UV rated stuff has a rating of about 5-10 years. Indoors the same applies but it will last for much longer because it will be exposed to less UV. Otherwise as long as it isn't being moved around or stepped on or put under strain which could cause it to break it should be fine.

So I take it that they are keeping the '1GB' of RAM requirement that vista claimed? Even though it took over 600MB just to run. Vista ended up practically worthless on all of those notebooks and end-users had to wade through a plethora of online forums just to 'downgrade' to WinXP since the manufacturers all claimed that the laptops did not support that OS. WinXP was an upgrade if you ask me. Lets just hope that we don't get a bunch of 1GB Win7 laptops flooding the market. This three app limitation seems like their (terrible) answer to that issue to me.

I work for a large WISP and it is impossible to offer everyone unlimited bandwidth all the time. The advertised packages are peak that the system can handle and are rarely the continued throughput. We keep a close eye on our bandwidth and upgrade backhauls whenever necessary but throttling is a necessary evil. The way it works here is you can download a certain amount per day and then you are throttled to 2Mb (depending on the plan), download a certain amount more and it goes to 512K, then 256K. Then it resets at midnight. There is also a monthly cap that will throttle you to 256K for the remainder of the month if you hit that amount. We recently did a company wide bandwidth analysis and found that usage has been increasing for every aspect of user over the years so we have raised our limits. Now we figure that 99% of our customers will never experience throttling. That other 1% are usually pirates and torrent hounds and if they want an unlimited pipe then they can go elsewhere and get it because it is not our intent to provide unlimited service to those types. I happen to be one of those types and I can say that the service is not for me. However, it is all that is available in my area so I have to live with it. We have an unlimited 4Mb business plan which runs about $450 a month if people want it but most people would prefer the standard 2Mb or 7Mb packages (for $30 & $35 per month). The terms are clear for anyone who wants to read them and nobody who knows the cost of operating a network like this can realistically expect an unlimited 7Mb connection for $35.00 a month. Before throttling was implemented the 1% of the users who use most of the bandwidth would slow down the network so that the other 99% could almost not use it. VOIP services especially suffered. So really it might suck for that 1% of people who run torrents 24 hours a day but that is not our target demographic.

All I know is that I have reduced my power bill from over $100 mo. to $53.00 mo. It is hard to argue with results. Also, if the utility company really pushes out that much more (28w) then you can bet that Incandescents also use slightly more 'equivalent' power than advertised. Either way we are consuming less power, which helps everyone. Someone at the Incandescent plant has been putting money into this researchers pocket if you ask me.

Holy crap..who knew that it would be used to pass legislation that would stop wasting our tax dollars on non-violent drug offenders?? YAY CONFICKER!!!
