Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm a craxxy big spender, but I love DomainDiscover.

"There are two sorts of people in the world: those who believe Joss Whedon is a genius and those who are wrong." - Connie Ogle, Miami Herald

I used Dotster in the past, too, and only jumped to GoDaddy because it was cheaper, so I have no complaints about either registrar.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Hi

A coworker is looking for a free, downloadable software for windows XP which would back up files to a server. She has tried dragging and copying them over, but it is making aliases (or whatever the PC term is). This would be something like Silverkeeper (http://www.lacie.com/silverkeeper/) but for a PC. THe hard drive is about to die, and our boss has several important documents saved to the hard drive. There is no CD burner or floppy drive.

Thanks

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

FYI, for those who care, there is now free Wi-Fi throughout downtown Salt Lake City, courtesy of X-Mission. Whose owner is challenging Orrin Hatch for the senate, so that's all right.

Oh, hey, I almost forgot. Happy System Administrator Appreciation Day!

It's not midnight here yet, so getting in a woo-hoo, just under the wire!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I figured out what the problem was. The Customize Google extension for Firefox was fucking with the personal homepage. Once I got rid of that extension, it is all good.

Our wings are not tired

So I ended up returning the Harmony 880 remote. It was very cool and did what it was supposed to, but it didn't like dealing with my Plasma TV. I'm pretty sure the issue is with the TV and not the remote, but for the amount of money involved in one of those remotes I either want it to work flawlessly or I just won't bother.

I have a question for Razr people of the bluetooth persuasion -- what sort of battery life do you get with Bluetooth on all the time? How often do you charge, and what sort of use are you putting the phone to in that scenario?
