    While trying to bid on properties at an auction. Someone has been using a cell phone jammer to prevent other people from being able to bid on certain properties, thus getting the property for much cheaper. A few of the people are pretty sure who is doing it but don't have any way of being...

    Should I try to stucco my house myself?

    I have about a hundred feet of single story house that needs to be stucco'd as soon as possible. I got a quote from a couple of guy at around $3000-$4000, but I'm wondering if I can't get it done. The reason it needs stucco in the first place is because I tore down all the walls on half...

    Networking with XP home

    I have a win2003 server sharing 3 printers. Some of the machines that need to access these printers are XP home machines (that will hopefully be upgraded). When I first add the printers I am asked for my login/password and there is a check box option to save the info. At that point the...

    What is the Lifespan of an LCD?

    I'm getting opions anywhere from 10,000hrs to 60,000 hrs. I'd love to get feedback about LCDs in general but I'm even more interested to know about the Samsung 191T+ in particular. It seems to me that if it were something < 10,000 hrs, then lifespan should be a major consideration, but in...

    short cuts in Linux

    What is the best way to create a shortcut to a buried directory. I ask because I hate having to type out: cd /usr/local/games/hlds/hlds/cstrike/addons/adminmod/config/ every time I want to do something like make changes to my user.ini file. I know this might will sound rediculous to people...

    Golf anyone?

    I don't know how many people here actually golf, but what the heck I'll give it a try. I have a set of Orlimar forged blades. They are not the newer Venturi Irons. I am dying to know what model they are but all they say on them is orlimar on the back. I'm trying to think of a good offer...

    philosophical Perl question

    Why doesn't Perl have multi-line comments? I am fairly new to Perl and one the first things that I've noticed is that Perl doesn't have support for multi-line comments. Although there are work arounds for this I don't see any good reasons as to why it isn't a part of the perl compiler(you know...

    DDR400, what else is new?

    With all the recent developements of DDR memory, how are we supposed to keep track of which mobo's support which memory? It might be easier to do if it weren't for the fact that chipsets seem to be changing just as fast. Not to mension it seems like everyone is making a chipset now. What are...
