@Hennes @JourneymanGeek @Bob Well finally managed to find a camera, so here's a pic of the label of my psu and here's a pic of the one I can get from the UK,2 pics of mine due to crap quality
anybody else think those few differences at the AC input part is enough to make one worry, sorry I couldn't lighten the 2 pics, this 7 netbook doesn't have that basic function in it's picture viewer
"This is odd. Never seen a PSU with neither a switch nor a wide working range". Neither have I. There is always a switch... well, at least that is what I assumed till today.
Just buy any cheap PSU near you. ATX formfactor is a standard, it does not have to be the precise same one. A generic 350 Watt PSU will also do (assuming they do sell those nearby, or that you 1000+ PSU person from work has some.
And if you ever are going to upgrade and build your own PC, then grab a good one which you can use in the new PC.
Assuming that will happen within a year or two. Else do not bother
I asked this question on programmers.stackexchange.com but got no answer.
The comparison is very general and abstract. I've set a certain criteria where they need to be compared :
Compatibility
API(s)
Cost
Availability of references/docs
Coding Simplicity
Performance
Security
Scope for develop...
Wow, that logical keyboard needs no software to work. And that logitech mouse does not need any extra software either. Lets put that in large letters next to it!
Cosmic ray spallation is a form of naturally occurring nuclear fission and nucleosynthesis. It refers to the formation of elements from the impact of cosmic rays on an object. Cosmic rays are highly energetic charged particles from outside of Earth ranging from protons, alpha particles, and nuclei of many heavier elements. About 1% of cosmic rays also consist of free electrons.
Cosmic rays cause spallation when a ray particle (e.g. a proton) impacts with matter, including other cosmic rays. The result of the collision is the expulsion of large numbers of nucleons (protons and neutrons) f...
I was just reading up on Boron. (element #5, used to shield nukes from neutron flux)
Apparently it is created by "Cosmic ray spallation". So I read that article.
blah blah blah.... as an theerory to create deuterium.... which did not work... blah blah. First picture: Nucleosynthesis of deuterium.
@Hennes Damn, that is both fearful and intriguing. Just like when you are standing near the edge of a cliff and you don't want to look over but you have to
there's plenty of HTML (which that famous question was about, IIRC) that is so broken it barely renders - and only cause browser developers spent far too much time fixing errors
So... his Facebook page says he's the "General Manager of StarLevelEvent", and on the page above he's "one of our most prized in-house producers" who you can book for 30 minute keyboard lessons via Skype...
@HackToHell Heh. That was cool. Next time I am on chat I shall gift a mystery game to the first person who wants it. Again it will be a game that everyone has already got.
Things one considers while showering. If I take any number which is a nine-fold then the sum of all digits is 9. Does that hold for all number N-1 in base N.
My kids (4 and 5) yell a lot when playing games on computer. I found an effective cure for this. I ssh into game computer and do:
chvt 3; sleep 15; chvt 7
when I hear loud noises. This will turn off screen for 15 seconds on linux. I've told them that computer doesn't like loud noises. They ...

I did it the other night when I said I want to find a cheap replacement psu, at first thought I went into word to disable clippy then realized I was in chrome
@Hennes I just noticed something, the second half of your message about clippy is a contradiction upon itself, either that or a sign of a split personalty
This is for a Windows XP SP3 machine, trying to access file shares on a Windows Server 2008 R2 system.
The client had access to the server previously, and other clients on the same network are not having problems. Other network functions for the troubled client do not seem to be affected.

My biggest issue with the whole "I can't see computer XYZ" is, I don't even know how that part of Windows works
There's some legacy NetBIOS stuff going on, but we hardly ever use that. So, there's most likely some UDP broadcasting going on. But I have no idea about the specifics
And then, to complicate the matter slightly, there are two concepts of "network discovery" in Windows as it seems. There's the part that keeps track of computers on your domain/workgroup (in the shape of the Computer Browser service). And there's the network discovery component that generates the map in the sharing center
