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!
I spent quite a long time this afternoon trying to get the screws out of the bottom case, and could only get 3 out of the 10 out with the tiny screwdriver set we have at home. (I *thought* they were the only tiny screwdrivers in the house.)
When Tim got home he got his Amazing Super Special screwdriver (apparently tucked away in The Attic Of Amazing Things) that enabled me to get the remaining screws out in about 60 seconds. If only I had known we had it in the house, I would have gotten the thing open this morning.
Anyway, once I got the back open, I didn't seen any evidence of coffee, though I have to wonder if some got under the keyboard. I'm keeping it inverted over paper towels and plan to keep it that way for another day or 2, and then I'll turn it upright and check under the keys. And then try to start it back up.
I named the damn thing The Batcave. It should be tough as hell and able to withstand all kinds of unspeakable horrors visited upon it, including a cup of joe.
You've put in on a bed of rice, right? That's worked for a couple of phones, for me.
I did put it on rice. I'ma wait another 24-48 hours before I flip it back over and try to turn it on. I am the world's worst at delaying gratification and so the wait is KILLING me.
It's NEW, Steph! Of course it's making you craxy.
I have an Android g2 question. The new email notification doesn't work usefully. It tells me the total number of unread messages,, which is reasonable, but it also insists I have new mail if there are an any left unread. Which there always are. The phone before defined new mail as mail received since the last time I checked the inbox. Googling finds me with some people complaining if the problem, but not as many a I'd have expected, and no suggested fixes.
Anyone here know anything about it?
What is Python 2.6.2? From my quick Google, it looks like a programming language, but I don't do programming, and I don't know why it's on my computer.
Yeah, it's a programming language, and it comes with Apple computers. I think it's used to run install scripts and stuff like that.
So if I remove it from my PC, it probably won't hurt anything?
You might have an app that runs on it. Unless it is running on start up and eating memory cycles I would not remove it. And even then I might just remove it from startup.
Ah, well, my impetuosity got the better of me. We'll see what crashes after it finishes uninstalling.
edit: What I should really uninstall is The Sims Complete, but I keep thinking I'm going to play it.
