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 had to open an image in Photo software (MS Picture Manager)to see the resolution in Windows XP. A general right click only gave me file size and dimension.
Similarly, if you open the jpg in MSPaint, and click on Image > Attributes, it'll show resolution there.
Random survey!
For those who work in IT, how big is/are your monitor(s)?
My work computer has two 1280x1024 LCD monitors, but I want bigger ones, as several systems I remote into have bigger displays than that, which is annoying....
I have a 24" Widescreen LCD and a 20" CRT, though the CRT is supposed to be replaced with a 22" Widescreen LCD any day now.
Not in IT, but the smallest monitors I have at this point are 20"widescreen. Office computer runs two of them. Laptop runs at 1920x1280.
At least once a month I remote into a site to fix a screen rotation problem. Usually someone clueless has hit the right combination of keys accidentally and doesn't know how to get out of it.
It's really strange remote connecting into a site that has a widescreen monitor at 90˚ or 260˚.
I wish our company wouldn't ship out systems with rotation hotkeys enabled.

Yeah, I love that -- it's some sort of NASA-style inverted, weightless, blindfolded exercise thinking "left is up and up is right" when moving the mouse around the screen (or do I have that backwards?).

I've never had a more important question than this one.
My primary site was set up in Wordpress. Last night, the person who has been helping me with it did something...I don't know what...and all the posts have disappeared.
Months and months of work.
I didn't have it backed up on disk for a variety of reasons I won't go into.
The question: Is there any form of archiving within Wordpress that I can access?
Please, somebody tell me there is a way to wake up from this nightmare.
eta: the site is bonnyking-taylordotcom
Bonny, there are some files from a year ago on the Wayback Machine, so you might be able to pick up some stuff you need.
It looks like you're hosted on DreamHost, which I use. DreamHost no longer supports file restore, but the odds are they keep backups for some amount of time. I'd start by throwing yourself on their mercy quickly.
Is there anything "bad" about a free WiFi site that inserts an ad bar at the top of each web page that you go to? Philosophically, it annoys the fuck out of me, and it takes up some of the limited screen space on my Aspire One. The cafe that has it is just scraping by financially, so I don't really want to complain to them....
