@CanadianLuke I think I own my game cd-roms in the same sense I own my books. I own the copies and can read anywhere I want, in any way I want, as many times I want, and lend to as many people as I want.
@ruda.almeida I own a couple disks of games, and I backup all my games to my server as well. I like companies that realize you'll install more then once, on more then one different system, and still let you play. Blizzard is great about that (Diablo 2)
i mean if the link is a temp password, or passing a temp password, then the link might have the temp password, and then you feed it that as the current.
but of coure i am overthinking how the process might work
they had the problem for more than a year. it looks sorta like the e-mail link just dumps them on a Normal change password screen. but i guess 5 years ago they changed (ahhh) they changed the normal password change screen to require a seconday log-in or re-verification. under the idea of public use computers
@nhinkle at least try to help me you little bitch, im asking for a function that can store code for later use like #define in C — Gunr Jesra10 mins ago
I wish someone would write a protocol for slapping someone with a trout over the internet.
@Bob Spy++ gives an error message on start, and WinSpy++ doesn't seem to be working properly (the specifications don't include Win7 which could be the cause) — ymar11 hours ago
The question here is not whether you trust dropbox, but whether you trust keypass. If your password vault gives up its secrets when someone else gets hold of it, then you will want to find something else.
Keypass uses AES-256 for encryption, which remains the de facto standard, and SHA-256 to c...
This format (Q&A) doesnt really give us the opertunity to explore such things. in a forum instead about 2 pages later, it might get down to what really happens
Yea... I've never seen a phone with a final stand mode. Working in retail for almost the last 6 years, I've pretty much seen the rise of smart phones. Not once have I seen a phone with that type of feature.
what is "final stand mode" ? way on the side of the topic, there are some electronic devices that hold power on curcuit for long enough to do a battery change. with a capacitor, or older they would apply a ni-cd battery. both of those rechargable. cameras, video cameras, and PCs have internal lithium to maintain clock
@MichaelFrank Phones can run to empty. But, since the storage is pretty much universally nonvolatile, there is no such thing as clearing storage on empty.
In fact, that would use significantly more power.
I guess the 'concept' is that it's draining the 'secondary' battery that power the storage. Problem is, that doesn't exist.
Methinks people are confusing CMOS memory (which, incidentally, is also nonvolatile no. Mostly.w).
The only reason for volatile CMOS memory is so you can reset it in case of bricking.
hey, would anyone know if the system requirements for different editions of windows 7 are different? Can I install Windows 7 ultimate on a netbook running Windows 7 starter?
@Urban like the base kernal, and the programs that are (or not) supplied, and the services that are (or not) available, are all basically the same. The space required for installation could vary by a large ammount.
@Urban ram, how low? cause almost "embedded" trimmed down windows systems take far less ram. while people say all that stuff running, like server stuff and extra services needed for features does not slow down the computer. When that stuff is shut off or removed the ram is freed up.
and i cant say its faster, because somone will correct me :-)
Hehe, well I was planning on formatting that netbook, and since I already had an original Windows 7 ultimate with me (but not the starter) I was considering installing it.
@Urban i just point out that the whole frilling DVD gets installed with win7, the bigger the package of junk, the larger the space it takes. Trimming down services, using things like BlackVipers data, could get you back to trimmed down. and 2gig is a good start for win7, but shut off the stuff you dont need, and i could get it to run good on 1
@Boris_yo It isnt bloatware if you need it, but it certannly is if the 3rd party replacement is smaller, faster, more intuitive, does everything you want better.
@Boris_yo cache: is always a "buffer" to something, not a storage location in itself. Buffer: A device or area used to store data temporarily and deliver it at a rate different from that at which it was received.
as I said, the cache system automatically manages which are more commonly accessed
not all OS files are accessed frequently
and, honestly, who cares about fast startup? who cares if it takes an extra minute to turn your computer on, once?
(if the computer is restarted often enough, presumably the caching system would detect that the startup files are accessed a lot. otherwise, it would be other files used while it's on)
@Boris_yo similar to a RAM cache, but more space and could be useful across restarts/at startup
@Bob funny thing I care about startup times when i am installing, and have to reboot 50,000 times, and none of thier speedups are doing chit by then. During all the installing and arranging i probably boot more then than in 2years
I don't run VMs. I run Chrome with many open tabs which soon starts to leak memory and I am forced to close and restart Chrome. I never restart system and always use Standby so maybe that is the culprit of soon memory leak. I also run IE or Firefox in parallel.
Well i have some open as "referance" but most of them it is just eaiser to mass close. I cant hit the "close all but active" because some of them i want to stay open
@Kwaio so how do you feel about the android system leaving most programs running, even after the person "closes" them? And win8 was headed into adopting that method too?
For a windows system, most of that program would still be in cache anyways, and open in less than a second.
@Kwaio To slowly make a mess with tabs. If you keep having tabs opened, they will eventually get top the point of thousands and then it will be harder to sort that mess out. Ask @Bob with his 1000 tabs.
@OliverSalzburg hehe. well the upgrade to 13.04 failed, and now I need to mount it to be able to chroot into it and try to fix it. do I need to create a new array and attach the drives or is there an array already which I can assemble?
@Bob: Very realistic in that case - a biker installed it on the suspect system ;p
(and yes, my report included that "the suspect system appears to be using a non standard varient of windows, which might have been <obtained from men in eyepatches>)
there, up
@Gowtham: before I install avast, what should I be looking for?
If i were to take a cat, i would buy it from local refuge, the donation includes vaccination, sterilization and fees it took to care of it since it was found.
@JourneymanGeek hey, on the drive question. If i pull my (say) seagate, out of a simple plastic external box, would the warrenty on the drive itself become void? superuser.com/questions/624034/blinking-external-hard-drive Because 2 times of getting a drive "replaced" under warrenty, they used the drives OWN date info to determine if it is still valid for the years it was warrented for.
