@SimonSheehan: i think more that you weren't around. I once decided to get to 6K rep before i get my new laptop. Still waiting on the laptop. I'm at 10K+ rep ;p
The registry is a bit of a misconception, The way it works, it could be filled with junk but it shouldn't slow down your machine - imagine, all roads are linked, but just because there is a traffic jam somewhere doesn't always mean it will affect you somewhere completely different!
It is pretty ...
would be a good entry for SU blog
also, 150+150 rep up for grabs on PF post ( + PATH post), once it crosses 48 hours, that is
@SimonSheehan 'grats :)
@GeorgeEdison give me a combined SE flair + short image filename & you're sold
I'm amused by how he says, "my question is better!" when his is largely incomprehensible. Because attacking a well-respected user with 10x your reputation makes a lot of sense for winning over the mods...
@Sathya what were you going to say? Feel free to rain fire upon him
I closed the page, but it's still there in Local storage
First -
Your question title is no where related to your actual question.
Next - your question is incomprehensible. What are you asking for?
The FAQ states:
If you have a question about …
- computer hardware
- computer software
and **it is not about …**
videogames or consoles
websites or web services like Facebook, Twitter, and WordPress
**electronic devices, media players, cell phones or smart phones, except insofar as they interface with your computer**
a shopping or buying recommendation
phones usually store numbers locally unless you explicitly have it in the simcard. it isn't network synced. The only possibility i see is a cloned simcard, which can hardly occur unless someone else had your phone...
aww, but i like being indigent once in a while
lol
read it ;p
oh, i was about to say the same thing, but throwing my rep around felt like bad form ;p
speaking of which. downvotes are free so... downvoted to boot ;p
aww hell. I hate it when I have a report where I know how many records are supposed to come out as a result, but then only about 70% of that count are actually outputted :(
@DMA57361 I remember this discussion on meta about the new system where they'd expected the quick and dirty answers to receive [0, -1, -1, -2], but that doesn't really happen anyway
I have inherited a spreadsheet with an IRR calculation that has the following formula:
{=TABLE(E47,C41)}
I would guess it is a structured reference referring to a table, but I can't find the table.
Q1: What is the formula doing? It pulls in an NPV amount, which is then used for IRR, so it see...
@Sathya No - completely forgot :( I will try to do it early next week as I am in the middle of a project at the moment... I don't mind cross posting with SU blog? / or just posting on SU blog and linking from my blog
@DMA57361 Thanks for that tweet - is there a quick guide anywhere for VS - my big problem is understanding/trying to start a new project... I installed turtoise and mercurial on my last machine but just didn't have a clue how to actually use it
... I mean, is there any all in one tool as I didn't get the creation steps... ahh... maybe I should just re read the hginit site!
@Wil no idea, I don't use VS. But TortoiseHg is done from explorer right-click menus
create folder, right-click -> create repo, do work in folder, right-click -> commit, repeat
@Wil bare in mind that the hginit site works with CLI Mecurial. TortoiseHg provides GUIs (which is really useful) but the principles are exactly the same (because it uses the CLI stuff in the background, obviously)
@Sathya I just know that I am getting to the point where things are getting very confusing and I need something... but they all just seem to be so complicated!
Hi guys,
I have a networking question I could not find an answer for with google.
We have currently at work two ISP boxes(routers), i want to setup a firewall to protect an intranet on a local host. The problem is that not every one is using the same router.
Here is my question: how can i do t...
@DMA57361 I am just about to try reinstalling it on my machine now! fingers crossed.... It is just, I am finally getting in to projects complex enough where I need to look back at old versions, and it is just becoming a nightmare :S
@DMA57361 Hmmm... Last time, I downloaded mercurial from their site and Turtoise HG from codeplex... it looks like on the official mercurial site, there is an all in one now :S
Also... side tracking... Anyone understand Bitcoin? :S I have been running it for a day on my Core I7, all cores at 100% and it hasn't generated one coin! Costing me more in electricity than it will make :S
ever had this happen to you - when you're furiously browsing, firing off on a bazillion tabs and boom the network goes out - and you wonder if it's you who caused it?
then blame the admins! Opening tabs should never cause a problem like that!
but yeah... I call it 1+1 = 3... when you do something and something completely unexpected happens, but the result is there and you second guess yourself
Ahh, I got it wrong... Visual HG was the thing I downloaded to get Mercurial working in VS - I think I used turtoise HG last time... I am getting the names messed up!
@JourneymanGeek Looks like a nice idea... but I just don't get how it is meant to work... I wasn't expecting a lot of free money, but if it costs more in electricity than coins generated, seems a bit silly as I would be better off buying coins! but... it is an interesting project
Ok... in one of my projects, I went to command prompt and typed "hg init", then went in to Visual Studio and did commit... it has done it, but I haven't a clue what has happened - I have green icons next to everything which I think is a good thing, but I just can't understand everything :S
Hi folk, I got a question about a Samba share... we have a share located at /smb/share/software, actually only one group can read/write into this folder, but what we want also to do is to protect each file "per user"... if I write a file inside of it, nobody in my group can edit/delete that file... we applied the file mask 0700 but nothing changed... can anyone tell me if this can be done?
@Wil commit has no immediately visible change... but if you right-click the folder the repository is in and choose TortoiseHg -> Repository Explorer you'll see (or use hg log from cmd I suppose)
@DMA57361 I think I have it working... just not understanding it very well... I did hg init at the directory of the project, and now I have commit options... I did commit and it appears to work - I also cloned the project to my NAS.,.. I think it is working!
Just, I don't like using things that I am not an expert at! Don't like feeling out of my depth!
as I said, just work and commit - that keeps the full history - the other more complicated bits can be done when you're happy with the basics, they're not required by any means
@DMA57361 Yeah - I'm pretty happy... (stupid comments) The advanced bits look too advanced, whilst commit looks so simple, I can't believe it is working!
but, I used the explorer like you said, and can confirm it has the full history - very happy
ohhh... I wonder who will have chat line 1,000,000! It appears to be approaching fast!

It is an on-topic firmware and GSM network software question.
GSM SIM card type phone non-volatile memory or network storage?
