Re: Out of touch - but alive & kicking
Hello Pierre Sure is great to see someone else post on here for a change! I look forward to you joining in on the conversations. We need new blood. Notice I did not say Victim, hi hi. Let us know if you grow a third eye from that shot. Many of us are waiting to see if it is safe or not, hi hi. Take ...

Re: How To Clear Snow in Kentucky
Not that I remember what any of them were about anymore, but we had to read all the classics. In some cases up to four or five per school year. Only about two per year during High School if I recall. In High School, even though things like Cliff Notes were available, all the teachers knew about them...

Re: Smug As A Bug
I've talked to the IT guys at both of the car insurance companies I've used, and both of them said it doesn't matter what brand of computer they use at the agents offices. They can use Windows, MAC, nearly any Linux Distro from BSD to RedHat to Debian based. They can also sign into the system either...

Re: Hacking Linux Mint
FWIW: Places that have a lot of deliveries get a discounted shipping price. UPS used to back tractor trailer trailers up to my brothers loading dock for him to fill. When business was booming, they picked up the full trailer and left an empty one every day. Then they cut it down to every other day. ...

Re: How To Clear Snow in Kentucky
Interesting, since one of our major subjects was reading and writing book reports. We had to turn in a book report every other Monday morning like clockwork. As far as English class went, I was one of the top spellers, so was entered in the KMOX Radio Spelling Bee a few times. However, as far as gra...

Re: Hacking Linux Mint
The few times I've sat down with folks, or talked to them via e-mail, even though they wanted to do something, they didn't know how, and didn't want to spend the time to learn. I'm the one who ended up doing most of the research for them, and even figuring out ways they could do it on a tight budget...

Re: Smug As A Bug
There were several programs, most proprietary that had functions similar to Flash, albeit with the same problems as Flash. I'm not a Beta Tester, but have received feedback from Linux program developers when I offered a few suggestions to them. Some of those suggestions were implemented as well. How...

Re: How To Clear Snow in Kentucky
Wow, I didn't know any public schools were single gender. I was raised in Catholic schools where grade schools was mixed gender, but all high schools were single gender. Chaminade was all male, as was Vianney. The girls school was Ursuline Academy. The year I went to Vianney, the bus company picked ...

Re: Smug As A Bug
Flash was a multi-level scale-able platform. Think of it like the Layers in PhotoShop. HTML5 Canvas is like a flat piece of canvas you paint on. No comparison at all to Flash. WebGL is really nothing more than a very limited image library. So in order to get something that ran easily on Flash, you n...

Re: Hacking Linux Mint
I actually did something similar to that not to long ago. Not ads for get rich quick schemes or cons, hi hi. I offered pet trick training consultations, since I pulled all the info off my website and never put it back up there. It went well for about six months, then most of the new folks sampling, ...
Re: Cold Feet
I think one of the reasons I became so paranoid about going barefoot is because of all the broken glass and beer can tabs I would step on which cut my feet. I've had some very large cuts in my feet that required several stitches. One time I cut the top of my foot and they were not sure if I would re...

Re: How To Clear Snow in Kentucky
I was probably in my 20s when I got into shooting tournament slingshots, hi hi. I was also working in lieu of my grandpa on my mom's side taking care of a ranch. So got lots of practice shooting rats around the feed bins. I also had 22/410 over under that my cousin stole from me. But couldn't use it...

Re: Hacking Linux Mint
With my luck, if I went to all that trouble, by the time I needed a utility it would have been superseded, hi hi. I'm trying to find more things I can do to earn money, but almost all of them require my doing things that are impossible for me to do anymore. Oh well! I'll think of something some day,...

Re: Smug As A Bug
The game worked just great using Flash, but the migration to HTML5 has been a nightmare for the programmers, as well as the players. There is just so much you can't do in HTML5 that could be done in Flash with ease. Since I never had to mess with changing my operations in the auto-clicker, I missed ...

Re: How To Clear Snow in Kentucky
I can't say I ever enjoyed skewl. But did learn a lot in the extra-curricular classes I took instead of study hall. At hour school, band was a credit class and counted as a regular class. But things like typing, crafts, and a few others were not. It's a shame schools today don't have shop class. No ...
Re: Cold Feet
I've worn boots my entire life. If I try to wear shoes, I used to get pain in the upper part of my foot. When I take a shower I'm barefooted, and get really bad foot cramps. I step out of the shower onto a super thick fuzzy rug. After I dry off, I sit on the toilet seat, dry my feet and between my t...

Re: Smug As A Bug
A company name Murguu names their data storage file with an .amc suffix. I've tried changing it to text, and/or removing the suffix completely to see if I had a program to read it. I don't. Their actual configuration file, stored in .config is plain English and changeable using any text browser. App...

Re: Hacking Linux Mint
YUMI looks very interesting, it also explains how some guys have many tools that require booting into them on one stick. But it looks like they only have an .exe Windows file to install it. Even so, it looks like the perfect tool to do that with. All the rest is interesting, but Yogi always figures ...
Re: Cold Feet
My wife bought me a pair of slippers you heat up in the microwave and they stay warm for about an hour after you take them out. It feels like they are filled with a sand-like substance, of which it really is I have no idea. You only leave them in the microwave for 5 minutes is all. I'm wondering if ...

Re: How To Clear Snow in Kentucky
I took Crafts in skewl instead of study hall for two years. Learned how to do a lot of things, but they had the equipment there to do them on too. I also tried my hand at pottery, even built a little pedal powered spinner to use. I should have went with an electric motor instead of pedals though. I ...
