Real Fiero Tech

That was a bummer this weekend, yet another classic actor dead. You could see he was getting on in years in Pleasantville.

I think everyone remembers the picture Aaron posted of his thermometer, but I think everyone is confused as to why EB brought this up.

We know that building 7 was pulled, don’t we? We do? Yes, we absolutely do. http://infowars.com/Video/911/wtc7_pbs.WMV Proving what happened in 9/11 is not a possible task and not the point I think is trying to be made. What is the point really? Is it that GWB cannot be trusted? I think the major...

The name calling / flaming in those posts turns me away from the discussions as well.

Anyhow, I got lots of videotape that I'll take to court. And to Internal Affairs.

Thats what I thought, until I got a reckless driving ticket when I was 17. I pleaded not guilty and they dismissed it, but...

Good luck in court.

I recently saw a putnam town pull a truck over outside of his town, into my town, woodstock. Now the cops sit on the putnam line, and wait for people coming from woodstock to speed past them. then they nab them in putnam. If the car is leaving putnam going to woodstock, they have about 200 ft to ge...

I sold my bike, because the drivers he in NC ( as opposed to WI ) are scary. I had some idiot decide to instantly turn left off of a 55mph country (no shoulder) road slam on the brakes. Not normally a problem as a bike can stop a hell of a lot quicker, however, the f'n dump truck behind me was start...

I just got pulled over for speeding under "interesting" circumstances: - On a deserted country road approacing a city. speed limit is 45. - I am cruising along listening to sat radio at about 80 - Come around the corner and the fuzz is sitting behind the city limit sign. - Instinctively hi...

So if I upgrade, how much memory will I need to avoid needing a swap partition? Is there an easy way to deal with files on multiple drives in Linux? The only way I can find to get outside the partition I installed the OS on is through the "devices" gizmo on the KDE desktop... but I can't ...

Is there a file viewing application for Mandrake that's similar to Windows Explorer in Windoze? IOW, with a tree view of the file system?

Konqueror does this and far far more. Tree, split, preview, blah, blah.. Use the dropdown menus luke.

I feel for the kid, but it was funny. I got burned by that once (not nearly the reaction this kid had) and since then am suspicious of everything that is sent to me, especially the "turn up your sound so you can hear the music" ones.

Then they wouldn't be extremists, would they?

Why would those pictures be so offensive. I dont really understand. Can anyone deny that some Muslims are bombing innocent people during their Jihad? Can anyone deny that the some Catholics killed innocent people during the Crusades? The extremists need to realize that they should be tolerant of oth...

That would be like them drawing a picture of Jesus in a Knights Crusaders outfit or some shit... Your concerned leader Diggity"I would riot over that cartoon as well... that's fucked up"Biggity Ok.. Riot. :) Somehow, I just dont seem all that motivated into uncivilized behaviour by cartoo...

Hell we can have some robot land on mars and do scientific expiriments to a fucking boulder yet we can't develop a new type of synthetic fuel? I turn you to the first law of thermodynamics: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred from one system to another in different forms. We can...

I do my withholding so I owe and invest the difference. Just be carefull as there is a limit to how much interest free money you can borrow from Uncle Sam (used to be $3000) and the fine isnt so nice.

I have an accountant do mine.

IMO, Oil producers and oil consumers are linked, such that producers can never raise prices more than people can afford. If prices went too high, people would consider alternatives and demand would subside. Mass transit would have the support it should have, consumption of oil would be smarter, traf...

Maybe MS should stick ...

Start->Control->Admin->Computer Managment->Disk Manager

Right Click partition on the graph, select "Assign Drive Letter"

Not sure if this is going to solve your problem though, as I dont know if Window will let you change its "system" partition.
