(things you learn on Home Improvement are totally legit right?)

probably should be a disclaimer on the site somewhere - "All answers are provided by people somewhere in the IT field and should be tested in an open field before being tried at home"

Sometimes I make stuff up, just to see if people will call me out on it.

always found it funny the hostility gamers have towards console features

Does this belong on Physiscs?

seriously F'd up my outlook 2010 and i have no idea how it happened

can't send any email, internal or external from outlook - receiving is fine - sending from OWA is fine

@lsiunsuex sounds like your sendmail server is effed

check the port #

exchange 2003

not a single complaint from any other user and its 11am - so its just me i think

@lsiunsuex are teh complaints not coming because the emails aren't sending?

no no, exchange is fine - its just me

very vocal high email users sit feet from me - they'd complain in a heart beat to pin me to a cross

@lsiunsuex gotcha

the last thing i did was setup a new profile to run a delete rule on behalf of our new soon to be returned message archive...

@Tester101 I think its more a plumbing than pool or physics topic

@HerrBag the underlying concepts are physics, but I don't think the question is all that relevant to a physicist

If we were anal enough, we could bounce pretty well every question to physics.

I just thought they might get a better answer from a physicist, than they would from a contractor.

But it looks like I was wrong.

is it proper to make someone on FB look like an ass so long as you stick to facts and are not duragatory ?

Is it proper to make someone look like an ass in person?

if their blatently wrong, yes

he said "I hope they skin this apple lol. Especially after all of apples bitching, and patent lawsuits. What a bunch of pricks. Hope your proud apple cultists." linking to a BBC article

and my finger is on the enter key to respond with "I know, right? Because Google didn't buy Motorola Mobile specifically for it's patent portfolio to be used against Microsoft / Apple and Nokia. Or that Google, Amazon and Microsoft ALL use the same tax processes as what Apple is being questioned on - so much so that whenever Amazon is asked to force customers to pay taxes in the location of purchase, Amazon threatens to close a warehouse or 2, killing hundreds of jobs.

Which is exactly what this is, a hearing, not a trial - their not being a accused of anything yet - their being questioned about their practices, at which point, Tim Cook suggested how to fix US Tax Law so more of the money could be brought home (US) and paid to the US government and not Ireland. But this is all irregardless because 70% of their profits comes from outside of the USA -

or maybe that changed since i've been in school and the population of the USA exceeds the other 195 countries in the world, including China, which is the biggest growing economy right now. "

Works for me :)

The use of the word "irregardless", discredits that entire argument.

the wife said that

i like to make up words as i go though and hes not intelligent enough (apparently) to know its not a word, so it doesn't matter

@ChrisCudmore slate.com/articles/double_x/doublex/2013/05/…

so um... i need something for my "back pain"

@lsiunsuex I haven't in decades.

My only pain issue is muscle/back pain after overexerting myself -- particularly when working on the ground/floor. Alcohol is the better relaxant for muscle fatigue.

Pot might help in other areas, but I don't have any symptoms.

My neighbour's kids, before they moved out used to stink up the neighbourhood every weekend. I'm very aware of the smell, and don't want it in the house, nor do I want it around my house.

And for me, smelling like a pothead is the compelling reason why I don't do pot.

@HerrBag Happy!?

@Tester101 AWESOMER!

what a pretty diagram

just had someone on craigslist advertising a car with no pictures and seriously low miles (32k on a 94?) at a seriously low price give me a VIN from a car 10 years newer...

@waxeagle Does that make it a better, or worse deal?

IT makes it really fishy. I'd stay away.

@ChrisCudmore yes, definitely

It could be a FrankenCar.

@ChrisCudmore yep, or a scam, it is craigslist afterall

sounds like a scam - unless 2 vin #'s are that close a typo returned the wrong car

@lsiunsuex possible. But fishy enough to warn me off (car listing has other issues, claims it was a daily driver for 2 years but only managed to put 32k miles on it)

if it was a ferrari - 32k miles would make sense haha

@lsiunsuex it's a plymouth acclaim...

32k seems more likely to be a rollover than an actual mileage

and strike 2 on the vin

though they did attach pictures

I'm not sure why I'm even still talking to this person

VINs don't have i's

and this is why the $45 for a month of autocheck is worth the money when you're used car hunting

she sent me a pic of the title. I'm inclined to believe she screwed up. Still highly skeptical of the mileage though, but the vehicle history report checks out. I may go see it at least...

if I'm not around on Friday I'm likely in a gutter somewhere in downtown chat stabbed or shot by yet another craigslist killer :)

@waxeagle maybe you should pick up a Kevlar® vest first?

@Tester101 lol

@ChrisCudmore wow, that's awesome

The problem is, that taking $200k across the border, and saying "I'm going to give it to a couple drug dealers" might not work out too well.

@ChrisCudmore not even a little bit.

unless Canada's press is more shielded than the US's is

About the same as US. Although, we conduct (temporary) media blackouts on trials that the US wouldn't put up with. Usually happens when there are two accused in separate trials, and they don't want press on the first to contaminate the second.

@ChrisCudmore gotcha. That sort of makes sense, we just find oblivious jurists here

you dc and toronto whiners can't hold a candle to Kwame

@HerrBag detroit?

winner winner

I'm somewhat amused by wikipedia's "residence" line on his entry

"Federal prison: Milan MI"

its pretty close to detroit, until the feds sentence him

Nice.
