Yeah. But 2TB is big, and I'm easily impressed.
Actually, I can't tell. Either it's buried somewhere, or I have Friday fatigue.
Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to open my box to check for an available bay, but I want to go internal.

Does anyone have strong feelings about in-car GPS units? I am thinking a Garmin nuvi 265.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
We had the 200 series and liked it, although at some point there was either a problem with the battery or the charger, because it couldn't keep charged. We never did find out what the problem was, because it was stolen.
So my advice would be not to leave the mount where thieves can see it.

Great. I get a nice big internal drive because I see I have an empty expansion bay and an empty SATA port on the motherboard. But no rails! And the power cables don't fit the drive either. Not to mention that the cables have come off the main drive and I can't get the angle to get them back in so that machine is down until my head hurts less and I can think more clearly.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
So after a tragic modem demise, I borrowed a modem from a coworker, got it set up, got a wireless router from the basement, plugged that in, and got connected. (Assume about a week's delay between each step. No, seriously.) But I'm feeling stupid because I can't figure out how to secure the network - the dead modem came from AT&T and did it automatically. I've been to [link] ect. but don't find any option there, and I can't find anything on AT&T's shittastic site either. Help? Even knowing which of those I need to dig into more thoroughly would be a start.

All is well that ends in pizza.
But no rails!
Four Dilly bar sticks from Dairy Queen. What?
And the power cables don't fit the drive either.
Well, Frell.

It only takes slimline power, and all my slimline cables were used up. But then I noticed the boot drive takes either oldschool power or slimline, so I switched things around. Drive is just lying in the bay for now, but the machine was becoming unusable with low disk space warnings every 5 minutes as I browsed the web. I don't know if rails are worth a drive back down to Fry's, or I'll order online. I just need to make sure I order just the right thing. It's a slimline drive that needs to fit into a CD-sized bay.
brenda, I secure my network at the router, not the modem. Is 192.168.0.1 your modem? What's the router IP?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Have people heard about the new google gps? People are saying regular car gps is now obsolete.
In One Fell Swoop Google Makes GPS Units Obsolete!
Verizon has been showing off its new Android based cellphone, "Droid." Today came word it ships with turn-by-turn GPS navigation. If you buy the phone this functionality is FREE!
In other words, that GPS you have built into your dashboard or mounted-by-suction on your window--obsolete!
...
Word is this will be coming soon (possibly not quite as fully featured) to my iPhone. Apple and AT&T can't afford not to.
