Re: What was your first encounter with a computer? - 23 days ago
Quotejonny My elementary school has a single computer in what must have been a modified janitor's closet. TRS 80- Model 1. This - only it was middle school. Educators gave it to the math department thinking they would know what to do with it. They didn't. I fully absorbed everything I could about it and taught the teacher.

Slammed by robocalls - 2 months ago
I've always had the occasional robo/spam/telemarketer call but I've always just ignored it and they were so infrequent it didn't bother me. Until today. I'm getting slammed with calls. Close to 100 an hour on my two numbers (main cell number and google voice number ported to the cell). Its been going on for more than 4 hours now. I'm still ignoring them, but this is ridiculous.

Re: quaking in my boots?!....earthquake in Boston.....4.0.... - 3 months ago
I could swear I heard it. I was sitting at my desk and actually thought it was a quake, but stared at the edge of the iMac which wasn't moving so I shrugged it off as being a plane. I was surprised to later find out I wasn't so wrong after all.by wolfcry911 - Tips and Deals

ADA SX8200 Pro in Sabrent 3.1 enclosure - 4 months ago
Okay, I'll first admit my ignorance with external drives... I purchased an ADATA xpg sx8200 Pro 1TB NVMe SSD and a Sabrent USB 3.1 enclosure. The enclosure acts as a heat sink, but the SSD came with its own heat sink. Do I use them both or just the enclosure's?by wolfcry911 - Tips and Deals

Re: I no longer offer to help my friends with their computers. - 6 months ago
I'll try to help immediate and extended family. My FIL is the worst. He doesn't call anymore but comes over and complains that Microsoft won't help him with his 'mainframe'. So, I go to his apartment and fix what was wrong - ususally just entering the correct password (which is written down for him). He asks what the problem was and I usually say it was PEBCAK (problem exists between chair and keby wolfcry911 - Tips and Deals

Re: Leaking fridge - 6 months ago
s-t, It's probably an easy fix. I'd be willing to bet the defrost drain line is frozen. There is probably a sheet of ice on the bottom of the freezer caused by the clogged line and new water from a defrost cycle pours over the sheet and out onto the floor. There are a bunch of videos on youtube on how to unclog the drain. On my GE the bottom of the drain line has a flap to keep warm air from travby wolfcry911 - Tips and Deals
