    WTF Is This?

    Rename the Malware Bytes executable to have a ".com" extension. I've run into that before and renaming the executable tricks whatever was blocking it into allowing it to run.

    The Official PS4 Thread

    Probably so...I can't imagine they would have 5000 units. But still pretty funny mixed in with the other Craigslist ads.

    The Official PS4 Thread

    I have one coming from Amazon I was thinking about flipping. However, after seeing this ad on my local Craigslist (apparently from Best Buy), has me rethinking. Someone at Best Buy has a great sense of humor: http://raleigh.craigslist.org/vgm/4192849762.html

    Huh, friend of mine from down there just called and said they had a freak storm with some vicious winds roll through. Trees and power lines are down and half the base lost power.

    News station search engine for CCW holders ?

    I know there are a couple of folks with CCWs on my street. Running the search all it shows is the number of permits on the street, the date it was acquired and the date it expires. It does not list names or addresses with street numbers. I don't agree with the search engine but its not quite...

    Captain Kirk slams on the brakes!

    Actually, on a recent field trip to the airport my son's class was told that the aircraft industry invented ABS because of the high temps and control issues that could be experienced by an airplane on landing if the wheels were to lock up while braking. Wikipedia seems to confirm it...

    Thousans of Saints fans denied entrance to friday nights game

    It kind of sounds like there are multiple tickets/passes printed on one sheet, with perforations between the tickets and the bar codes. I completely see how a person could tear it off incorrectly if that is the case.

    Where to find most recent satellite pictures?

    Check to see if your county has a GIS section on their website. Our county usually has the most recent photos available of any source.

    Is there a current LEGO craze? NorthPark mall was flooded with LEGO fanatics.

    Sounds like they're having a grand opening. We had the identical scene (ridiculous lines, building LEGO Yoda) in Raleigh back at the end of May.

    Reccomended me some books.

    I'll second Footfall...if you want a realistic alien invasion/disaster story, that one's pretty good.

    Ceiling fan assembly/installation cost

    That does seem astronomically high. I would think even an inexperienced installer would take an hour to an hour and a half at most. I've put up a few and it's not difficult at all. Even if you have to put in a fan bracket in the ceiling it's not that difficult. Maybe he's doing more than a...

    Anyone been to La Paz, Bolivia?

    Coca tea is good stuff! It really helped me out when I was there. Definitely take a day or so to get acclimated. I helped move some heavy boxes at the airport there and ended up with the absolute worst headache I've ever had from the altitude sickness. The coca tea definitely seemed to help...

    Bike rack for a minivan...

    I've heard of them doing that to Pilot owners as well. Just order that hitch online and install it yourself. I think it's all of about 4 bolts. I don't see how they can void your warranty just for having the hitch.

    YASKT: Is it necessary to read 'The Regulators' before 'Desperation'?

    Nah, you can read them in either order. It's actually a little confusing reading them back to back like I did.

    Do you have the same name as your parent?

    Same first and last, different middle. It's a bit of a tradition in our family. I'm the sixth with the name and my son is the seventh. Each generation seems to alternate between using the first and using the middle.

    Can you suggest good audio-plate outlets for in-wall?

    I'll second Parts Express. Great prices and great service. Sometimes they're out of stock of stuff you need for a while, though. Accessories4Less is another good one to check.

    Questions about removing stock heatsink from Celeron 1.1GHz

    I recently purchased a retail Celeron 1.1GHz. I have everything running fine on a Abit BH6 motherboard with an MSI slocket, but I am concerned about the fan/heatsink combo. The stock heatsink and fan are really too big to fit in my case. I can't put the power supply all the way back into the...
