@KevinSoviero If your landline is giving you more than number and region it's looking it up against some phone book, no reason your cell can't do that too.
@KevinSoviero Depends on the generation of your cell technology. IIRC modern CDMA2000 and GSM and LTE all have facilities for including the Caller ID information.
@MichaelHampton actually my VoIP provider doesn't let you supply your own ANI blocks anymore -- you can but they get replaced when it switches you to the PSTN
(they used to just pass whatever I gave them)
@ChrisS LTE definitely does - not sure about the various generations of GSM
@voretaq7 Some website did it a few years ago.. Had a service where you could setup the call on the website (including payment) and it would call your phone, then call another party with whatever ANI you wanted.
I can pass out whatever I want, it gets overwritten. Used to allow us to set the CLI, I know that much. Called and got it changed so it was always correct (long story)
So I have a replication problem today. My target box is having cache installed, and that means half the cache is out of service during the procedure. We aren't expecting any exceptionally large write activity levels today (we asked around). What happens? A storage VMotion to mirrored disk. They didn't think that counted.
@voretaq7 I had an argument with some [edit: older than Steve Buscemi] guy misusing memes on a FB group we both belong to. I'm half tempted to post his shit anonymously on cringepics or misusedmemes
I've followed the VirtualBox installation guide found here and have switched my Linode kernel to use 2.6.32-47-generic-pae using this guide, but I still keep getting the following error when I run sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup:

@MattBear and how do you replace that URL and get the client to reissue its request on port 443 with ssl? You're getting a 3xx code either way
rewrite rules can be more versatile (if someone types http://example.com/secure/subsite it can detect that and redirect them where a redirect for http://example.com/secure/ wouldn't)
but if that's not a concern (and if you don't need mod_rewrite for other stuff) I'm a fan of the simple redirect -- less overhead

I've noticed a distressing tendency for questions that seem basic or overly short to be immediately closed and downvoted into oblivion.
Case in point: Check if element is visible using JavaScript

Is there a way to hide my e-mail address from other users? I can see it on my SE profiles so I'm thinking other people can see it as well... I'd just rather keep my e-mail address private and shared only with the admin of the site. :)
I wonder if the breadth of scope is also a contributor. It seems not unreasonable that a narrowly defined site would have less crap content if only because the people who know enough to narrow themselves down to that site would end up producing better quality.
@ScottPack I think someone had mentioned a New Question Wizard for low-rep users. Which would basicly guide them through creating a question and disallow the most blatantly low quality crap. I think it was nixed on the theory that it would scare too many new users away.
@ChrisS that reminds me... I got a 10 year suspension on something back about 10 years ago.... Dont remember what or why, I should try to find out and go back...
Yes, there is a bug.
On the day in question, you had gained 200 points, but had one answer with a downvote (net rep: 198). The kicker is that you responsibly deleted this answer, which refunded the -2 from the downvote; however, the badge logic doesn't take this refund into account.
