    Question about a GPS

    It used to be EMR. EMF was the potential (voltage), but that is not relevant in the context. In the labs we had some ancient Van de Graaffs and would screw around with them late in the day. :) I did not have any personal digital electronics then. It was the days when 7400 series logic was...

    Hey Kevin, Udamanan was banned. He finally got on Doug's last nerve after being increasingly annoying and trollish. I'm really messed up, but that is another post.

    I have another new GPS (will be getting 3 this week) and noticed that the head blocks the signal more that I remember. :( Has anyone alse experienced a loss of sensitivity when their equipment is placed under the pillow?

    Yes, but when a single prey animal is brought down they will normally all go for that one. I've seen it many times.

    Hmmm. I wonder why they are not sold in the US, or maybe the 3.5" drives are new.

    OK, somehow I am confused about Seagate absorption into WD. Anyway, Toshiba/Fujitsu are not in the 3.5' drives.

    Holy moly! So there will be only one global hard drive monopoly? Meanwhile flash memory durability is crapping out at smaller nodes. Basically all of our data is screwed. :cry:

    I am sick and tired of the damned Insert key accidentally activating. :mad: Sometimes I overwrite half a paragraph before noticing. Other than physically destroying the keyboard, is there an easy way to completely disable that Insert key, e.g., in software or OS?

    Rats. My 2007 GPS is not working reliably. :( The unit sometimes will not power up. Maybe it is the switch, but it is probably not worth the effort to mess with.

    UPS Help

    It is pretty much 3-5 years if the UPS is operating normally and there are only a few outages. Depending on the USP model and software, the battery change date can be programmed in (and would have been at the factory), so it may be possible to obtain that info without physically inspecting the...
