Flying fork. The verify is stuck at 46% forever. :spiderman:

Ugh, the dreaded 19.5 kB limit strikes again. How is this? :king:

I have the Verboten DL. What does the data indicate? I have another burner on the way.

I am so bloody sick of all the website pop-up messages proclaiming that my computer is out of date or my "experience" is not supported. :puke-r:

Why would a package be shipped from SoCal to Spokane, WA to Portland, OR and then to Dallas, TX?

How does one ensure the Singapore style?

It is hardly worth bothering for that site. The "meat" product is not very humorous either.

I was a nobody before there was an internet or cell phones. :alb:

I received reports that some of the DVDs burned a few years ago are no longer playable. I plan to burn new DVDs, but this time with DL discs to reduce the quantity and enhance the viewing sequence. (There were 27 old ones at ~1 hour each in XP mode.) What is a good model of DL burner and...

Man, I'm glad not to use a cell phone but rarely.

The slowdowns are intermittent and not nearly as severe as those last year. However, I thought it best to comment now before the situation deteriorates. The new host has been great overall.

I hate power failures. There are 4 or 5 beeping UPS units driving me crazy. :tounge:

I have several of that type including the exact one. Battery life is about 11-12 hours when new.

It is small, but not lightweight for the size. 7D is not such an improvement on the 50D as I had hoped. It would be nice to get ten keepers from the 7D, but I'll settle for five. :reindeer:

That is not the main IT challenge at work. However, I am not allowed to mention anything about corporate in public. :(

Does anyone use USB 3.0 external 2.5" drives? I really like the speed and compatibility with USB 2.0 if necessary, but there are unfortunately very few choices. Which 2.5" USB 3.0 enclosures have you found to work as alternates to the external drives?

I have five of the Samsungs now. :) One of them had data on it, but was hidden by a printout and never installed. :bsmurf: I need to find a usage for it.

After that I wiped out another 1.3 TB. What a rotten weekend. :(

Maybe the customer was snoozing too. :smile:

This site is slow for me now, but other sites are not. Am I the only one?

How effective is it supposed to be? I know they can't stop the sales pitches.

Why? Extra fragmentation is usually to be avoided.

I agree (cross posted above before reading this).

Not with 600-700GB written over. Recovery is a boring waste of time. Now I'm moving data all around again. It is certainly not a time saver to do this in the middle of the night and screw it up. :bstd:

I accidentally deleted a whole 2TB hard drive in the early AM. :cursin:

I am using the Windows default font sizes. Are you using 120% by any chance?

Why is that surprising? The organization and storage of factual data may be time consuming and the interpretation of language can be complex, but it does not require human thought.

I am a middle aged man - no secrets there. The point is that women who work in IT (or not) don't need/want drugs or male sexual "improvements" either, but they often receive the same spam.

The women sure don't. :flower:

Like this.

:cheers:

On a 1600-pixel-wide monitor it looks like the one icon is puking downwards on the other. :mrgrn: It was an accident, really.

I am so sick of spam at work. :puke-l: Most of the spam is devised to sell IT services, though a few are for drugs or male sexual "improvements." The spammers know my name. Why do they think I work in the computer world? :bstd:

They are $99 now. Interesting.

Sorry. I didn't mean to derail the thread.

A week can be very annoying to the user. Up to 2008 our work computers were repaired on site. Now it takes at least a week (2 days of that are shipping) and one receives a crappy loaner that does not have the right software. :mad:

No, it can't be 40+ years. Am I that old? :eek:

An object has a certain physical size that is independent of the measurement units. Another example is would money be worth more in a currency with lesser denominations? Of course not.

The SMART data can be confusing since the manufacturers are not consistent. I trust a full scan and 100% write then read write cycle more. :cyclop:

What is the difference between the SSDSA2M080G2XX and SSDSA2MJ080G2XX?

If applications were all well written I would agree. It is less of an issue as 64-bit apps are becoming more common.

Oh my. Are you OK, Merc?

I don't understand either of those statements. :monkey:

The Who was never my favorite, and I did not care much when Moon died.

We had to learn the metric system in the 1960s and it became a major thinking mode in school in the 1970s for us science/engineer types. The English system is too difficult, especially for liquid volumes. Everthing is µL, mL or liters to me. Likewise small distance measures are all metric. I...

Looking at that thread, I see that Mark and Kevin are among the major departeds.

Not so great, but not terrible. Review, review, rental.

Someone might count them all. :mrgrn:

The last flights I returned on were uncomfortable even in business. Seating and footrests were poorly designed for me, so sleeping was not feasible. Yet it is rather better than 13-14 hours in coach, especially when one must work the next day. :bravo:

And here I thought you were simply were trying to surpass everyone with the highest post count. :shaking:
