Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Wouldn't this be cool? In theory, anyway. I do depend on tactile feedback.
I've discovered why I'm crap at Graffiti -- my handwriting, although potentially quite legible is sloppy. I often have to go back and insert letters in. It's a problem I don't have when typing, nowhere near as much, anyway. In cursive, the illiterate part of my brain often goes for the smooth transition.
Dayamn. Coolest toy ever.
Daniel, do you still need the DSL "modem"? We've got three, so my boss is willing to give me one for free. He's gonna look up the model #, so we can see if it will actually work for your purpose....
That would be cool. I pretty much want a DSL modem in hand before sign up with qwest.
That is an awesome toy. I would totally use that, because I don't need tactile feedback, I think, and sometimes I feel slowed down by the bounce of the keys. The only thing for me would be positioning, because I don't ever look at the keyboard. The tactile feedback that I do depend on is the little bump that tells me F & J.
Question posted on SailAWeigh's behalf -
"None of my webpages will load. I keep getting 'The page cannot be displayed' on every sinlge website I try to go to. I get my Yahoo buttons at the top of the browser. And I can IM, but I can't get into any other website at all. I think Yahoo is fucking me up somehow, but I don't know how!"
Any ideas?
ETA: Nevermind. Sail and I are both going to bed (not together, gutter minds) and she's calling a pc dr. in the morning.
MPAA have emptied LokiTorrent now. I guess record takings of $10.82b last year just wasn't enough for these people.
The problem has been fixed. I've got a "Go Back" feature on the computer (that I forgot about.) Reset the drive with settings from yesterday morning and now everything works just fine.
No more Loki?
Wow. I only went there for TV shows.
The MPAA's message on the website is obnoxious as fuck.
I am in HP support Hell right now. Again.
I have a HP with Windows XP. Previously, I was told to download and run this program Hijack. Which I did, because they told me to (not that I thought it dealt with my problem) and now -- stuff on my computer is changed. Like the programs I had to start up automatically -- not starting up. Norton isn't running right.
Norton Personal Firewall is disabled and I can't get it enabled. When I go to Options -> Norton Personal Firewall I get the message that I don't have adminstrative privileages.
And I think I got disconnected again.
Never mind. HP Help is telling me the only or at least best in their eyes solution is a full system recovery.
Whcih they've recommended and Iv'e done twice. And they were going to set me up a time to talk to a case manager and I accidentally disconnected the phone and since I've been on the phone with them for almost 2 hrs and I'm straving I'll try back tomorrow.
I'm venting. I'm sorry.
