    What kind of company is that, or is it some government deal?

    I have not seen them chase roadrunners much. The birds usually keep some distance and would fly further away if the coyotes got too close. A coyote killed our cat Balloon many years ago. It was awful.

    Is the M550 the 1TB SSD of choice <$500 for laptop/USB 3.0/PSD?

    That's not as convenient for the miscreants. I've seen the cables for $10 in stores.

    3D Printers

    So it will go forth and take my photos, too? :lol: I noticed that 20 hours of labor are needed for printer assembly. :doh: I wonder if that estimate is for first timers or not. Either way it is more than the cost of the printer if one's time is valuable.

    I can barely hold one 500/4 and 1D-X in my condition. Trying to handle a rig with two cameras and lenses precisely aligned would be a monster.

    The 850pro is 700 something, far more than the Evo or Crucial 1TB drives.

    Well, I'm sure those f*ckers want to make us pay up every month, but at least there are still some options for PCs. I assume in a few years the OS/apps will make us slaves to the MS or Apples of the world.

    Shaving solutions, or, what do Gilette and all those companies do with all their $?

    When I was your age, I was shaving every day or two and growing the beard in the summer. My (parochial) school had a rule of no moustache/beard and the sideburns had to be no lower than the earlobes. Back in those days most guys had a lot of head and facial hair. The dry look was popular. :)

    More Google is the last thing I want in this universe. Fortunately I was able to find the e-mail address that was listed and then reset the password. I was on travel at the time and needed a different one for that region. Many of the apps are not listed and the configurations can't be...

    problem Phone Reset

    I think the backup was off. I have about 25 e-mail accounts on 5-6 domains, but only can access some of them. It's all too complicated and I'm in a lot of pain tonight. Maybe I should buy a Mac phone, not that it would be much different.

    problem Phone Reset

    I don't know either one of those. I haven't needed to do anything since 2011. I'm still not sure what caused it. The phone was working fine all these years. Somehow I think it is a work-related rather than a hardware issue, but who knows. Either way, what if it flakes out again?

    Best Hard drive testing program?

    I don't think there is any such command. You'd have to copy it somewhere and back with verification. What do you do with hard drives in storage?

    Best Hard drive testing program?

    I recall some having a spec of at least five years. I have USB drives older than that, but they used much larger flash memory cells in those days.

    Not exactly. Certain common lamp styles are no longer available, such as the standard soft white 100w, 75w, 60W, etc., but special lamps including those with reflectors and appliance lamps are allowed. Some states have more specific codes. New homes have a percentage of built in lights that...

    Interior LED lighting

    The newer Cree lamps are the closest I've seen to a real light bulb replacement in light pattern. The 100W are really bright, so you may want dimmer lights for some fixtures. In table lamps the 5000K is too cold for my living area tastes and the 2700k is about what one expects to replace an...
