    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    I have been on the Web and using it frequently. After about 14 hours power is down to 30%. I just wondered if that is normal and it appears to be the case.

    I would not ever travel with illicit materials. The laws in many countries are quite severe. :(

    How to deal with wind chill?

    That is not my experience. Everywhere I've been there is heat. In the old days there were wall gas radiators, or in some places electric heat. Some houses built in the 50s had swamp coolers rather than AC, but in the last 50 years they used AC. I've seen heat pumps also, and they work fairly...

    File synchronization options for large amounts of files

    The newer versions have become increasingly difficult, but it's not like there are practical alternatives for serious work.

    File synchronization options for large amounts of files

    Of course not, but they should not all be lumped together. I abhor the awful Flash and I don't particularly like the Acrobat for example, but PS is not crap.

    PS and LR are crap?

    Best movie you've seen

    All those brands are the same to me. Even as a child I had little interest in the action or superhero comic books. I was an early reader and real books were more meaningful. The animated cartoons were terribly boring as well. Superman especially made no sense. I had to watch some of the old...

    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    Thanks, but that's not what I mean. There is a specific app used for work (Good) and I installed that one already. I am talking about e-mails from individuals through my various personal e-mail accounts, none of which are on an Exchange server.

    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    Are there any Android e-mail apps that can view attachments from Outlook RTF messages? I'm having the winmail.dat problem that I thought was resolved years ago.

    Netbooks got squeezed from both ends, cheaper small notebooks and tablets.

    No, and not the CIA. I work in the private sector.

    So why are you complaining if it is your doing? I am the only one for which this makes little sense?

    Best movie you've seen

    He said it to me too and I'm obviously of that age group. I assume it is a line from a movie or something. Anyway I view the statement as conceding defeat.

    Best movie you've seen

    I think he was wearing prosthetics on his head and abdominal areas. It was an odd comedy.

    Kim Jong-il is dead

    I lived abroad during a good portion of the mid-80s to mid-90s and often did not have a TV or understand the language in the country that I was stationed. In any case, Northern Korea would not have been relevant to me.

    File synchronization options for large amounts of files

    I use SmartSync to sync 10s of TB of local data between primary/backup drives and between two computers over the network. You can run multiple syncs simultaneously, which is nice.

    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    So now I have the androgynous phone also. The virtual keyboard concept rather sucks for those with stubby fingers. :( The Blackberry was easier to use and the battery lasted far longer.

    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    I don't see how the phone can connect to a secured wireless home network without the password. You should be able to turn off the WI-FI or set it up differently to avoid that.

    Hmmm. I never heard of him until now.

    3 years is just too long for WD

    What percentage are the RAID drives? I suspect it is well under half. The companies buying drives in volume like Dell, HP, Lendovo, etc. want drives that die after the computer warranty expires and most of those are only one year.

    Yes, it is seriously ridiculous. Maybe if the temps were -10°C there it might be interesting.

    Hitachi starts shipping 4TB drives in Japan

    I have some 4-bay external drives that are reasonably robust with a decent power supply, metal frame and rails, and 90mm fan. Unless you are beating them up like Cougtek, I don't think that should be a problem.

    I haven't seen any Disney-branded films in decades. I know they own some other companies that produce and distribute the more normal films.

    I guess the question is if the lenses are a handful produced prior to the disaster or if production is in place elsewhere?

    Yeah, that's what I meant. Once in a while I get confused about all the mergers. When does WDC disappear completely like the Samsung?
