Don't know if this is only a MS problem--maybe not. Firefox is vulnerable too. Seems that if you still need to use PAC files and enable WPAD-- man...
Hee, hee. If I had paid a good deal more than fair money for a new Apple laptop and it arrived with a four year old CPU or GPU I'd be considerably...
Posted like a true engineer--you da man, Kaitain!
Thank you very much for your enthusiasm, booman! I do not plan to build a laptop or Raspberry Pi or JaguarBoard machine. In my case they are projects...
What bothers me is that Apple machines command premium prices. I don't take it for granted that any old part is worth paying brand new extra money...
Argh, do I have to watch all of the "Terminator" films again? Maybe you're right, yet my memory such as it is, tells me that Skynet killed off...
Sorry that you're having font problems, Daniel~. Not helpful, apologies. If the floppies still work (which is nearly a moot point. How the heck can...
Sorry that it's difficult to find. The article was posted on Aug 7, I find it without difficulty, but we do get lucky at times. The story, if I...

HP...let me count the ways. I purchased an HP inkjet long ago to replace the ancient impact unit I had. It worked well enough for its day, but it...
Pretty sure that I bought that first locally assembled AMD machine for Christmas of 2004. Didn't start "rolling my own" for at least a year after...
Maybe I was drawn to the possibility of developing a Skynet by watching all of those "Terminator" movies. James Cameron is quite a writer, I really...
I was given a 386 by a pal's GF. Bought a used tiny IBM monitor for it that was in love with pea soup green. My first "real" machine was a locally...
Isn't that wunnerful news? Please see https://slashdot.org/?page=2 Posted in their August 7th edition. Mod edit: fixed URL
It's amazing that some folks bought the cheapest ready-built machines of all (afaik) eMachines--then had the nerve to complain about their...
Call me a worry wart, it's true after all. But---am I the only one who sniffs a hint of Skynet on the wind?
I agree with Gene Roddenberry's wished for future. What strikes me as comical is that there could have been no Star Trek stories without breaking the...
