I have a drive I need to mount when I'm in the office.
I don't remember the exact reason why I didn't want to make it persistent across reboots, (probably because it annoyed me when I wasent in the office and would try and reconnect)

Paste the following into a bat file.
----------------
@echo off
net use > %temp%\NetDrives.txt
findstr /C:"\\Server\Folder" %temp%\NetDrives.txt > nul
if %errorlevel% equ 0 goto alreadymapped
net use * \\Server\Folder PASSWORD /user:USERNAME /persistent:no > nul :alreadymapped
net use > %temp%\NetDrives.txt
set _foundit=No
for /f "skip=6 tokens=1-4" %%G in (%temp%\NetDrives.txt) Do (if %%I EQU \\Server\Folder set _foundit=%%H)

if %_foundit% EQU No goto error :found
start explorer %_foundit%
goto end :error
echo Some kind of error.
echo type 'net use' to see whats wrong
pause :end
del %temp%\NetDrives.txt > nul
--------------------

A very simple bat file would be
-----------
net use * \\Server\Folder PASSWORD /user:USERNAME /persistent:no > nul
pause
------------

Yeah, using firefox it asks you to download a small exe that will give you a code.
Then you paste that code into the ms website and it gives you the update.

Thank you. Someone else here knows how to read.

Ok I think I got it. Damn you for trying to ruin my childhood memories of one of the best movie series.

Future Biff gives 1955 Biff the almanac.
1955 Biff thinks it a bunch of bull. At that point in time 1955 Biff doesn't believe the almanac, so there is no change to the timeline, so Future Biff goes to the "normal" future (the time he came from)
He puts the DeLorean back.
Then 1955 Biff realizes the almanac is real, then the timeline branches off.

For the large majority of the population, download means "get it from the internet" which is what Websters says. For them upload means "send it to a website" which again, agrees with Websters definition.
So no surprise that Wikipedia's definition is based on what the words mean to a large majority.

I found this on the web, but am not an IEEE member so I can't confirm

IEEE Std 610.5-1990. IEEE Standard Glossary of Data Management Terminology.
download (A) To transfer some collection of data from a computer memory to another storage location. (B) To transfer
some collection of data from the memory of one computer to the memory of a second computer that is relatively smaller
than the first; for example, to transfer data from a mainframe computer to a microcomputer. (C) 610.5-1990

upload (A) To transfer some collection of data from some storage location to a computer memory. (B) To transfer some

Downloading - Transferring a file from a higher level device to a lower level device. Going DOWN the chain.
Your PC is above the PLC, so you download the ladder logic to the PLC. Your PC is at the bottom of the list on the internet, so you download from web/ftp servers to your PC.

Uploading - Transferring a file from a lower level device to a higher level device. Going UP the chain.
You sending a file to a server, the server is higher up so you UPload. The PLC is below the PC so you UPLOAD the plc program to your PC.

Is how I understand up and down loading.

I was watching TV last night (1/1/09 around 8pm) and Viacom was STILL running 30 second ads saying how Time Warner removed 19 channels from your lineup. Along with the Time Warner phone number. So it looks like Viacom was prepared to remove the channels and wasn't bargaining in good faith.
A deal was made, yet Viacom already had the ads lined up and still ran them, even tho the channels were still on the air.

Earlier this year it was Lin TV and TimeWarner (CBS in Buffalo), now Viacom and TimeWarner. I just wonder how much more my bill will be in a year from now after every other company demands more money from TimeWarner.

Click on Unix at the top of the webpage.
Then you can type stuff and play with a terminal.
Could this be why the site is watching what you type?

Why the hell would you want to change a user's password from what they entered?

So I'm the Luser and type "pink ponies " for my new password.
Your software silently changes it to "pink ponies"
Tomorrow I get to call the help desk because my new password doesn't work.
Now your calling me a luser since I can't remember a password for 24hrs.

Choose File->Exit or Quit to close all open firefox windows, and it will remember all of them when you restart it

The Refurb Sansas that I got from Woot actually had metal colored 3d stickers spelling out REFURB on the back. I was able to scrape them off, but some of the adhesive remained. I think its gone by now.
I you get a Sansa E2xx series, get a v1 so you can use Rockbox on it. I don't think Rockbox works on the v2 sansa e2xx series yet.

SO WHY CAN'T YOU WHITELIST THE SITE THAT YOU HAVE TO SUPPORT? Along with any other sites you support?

Its not that hard to build up a whitelist. The first time you visit a "trusted" or regular site, add it to the white list. Does it have any subdomains, or "partner" domains that you also need to add? Go ahead and add them.

So many people complain about how NoScript breaks pages, but its really not that hard at all to setup a whitelist.

Now when your redirected/accidentally click on a link to dgdrklgdr.com/e3rer it can't run any javascript on your pc.

She increased the taxes on oil companies in Alaska, and some that income went to Alaskans, in addition their normal yearly dividend from the oil companies. (You do know that you get 1-2 thousand a year just for living in Alaska from the oil companies)

Another view is that the Banks who were "forced" by the CRA to give out "subprime" loans (following CRA rules) found them to be profitable, and the risk was no worse compared to prime loans.

Then a bunch of greedy wall street people realize they can make money by getting into the subprime market.

According to law professor Michael S. Barr, a Treasury Department official under President Clinton
"More than half of subprime loans were made by independent mortgage companies not subject to comprehensive federal supervision"

And here is a link to a study showing this as well.
It also shows that CRA banks were more likely to hold on to the mortgage instead of sell it as a security
