Exactly. You would need a Latin primer just to get through an episode. If I need a desk reference to enjoy an HBO series, I am concidering that one of the signs of the Apocolypse. :) __________________________________________________________________________________________ It is easier for...

Much like Deadwood, they use modern curse words as a way of conveying the feeling and emotion of what the character is saying. The modern curse words did not exist, or had both different connontations and denotations at the time. They use them because it would be terribly confusing if they used...

Is your account set up for a static IP? If it is DHCP, then the lease on your IP might not have gotten automatically renewed by the ISP. The best way to solve that is to powercycle the router. Just make sure you give it 15-30 downtime to clear it...

Capacitors in computers are generally very small (in the range of nanofarads), and need recharged every ~50 ms (IIRC from my digital circuits classes). Any larger capicitor will need less frequent recharging. Therefore, just turning off the power and waiting a few seconds will be sufficient to...

Sometimes there actually are simple solutions to complex problems.... My first thought would be check the wires and the mobo to make sure you are not grounding/shorting any connections. Add rubber grommets to the mobo feet if you have to (cheaper than a PSU by far). Other than that, if you...

carp: Don't sell the Army short. I served for four years until mounting line of duty injuries forced me out. Now I have displayed leadership under fire, professionalism, and I have a security clearance. It was quite possibly one of the best decisions I ever made...

Best wishes to you, sqlcasey. Remember that, although you are leaving this job on a down note, there are always silver linings. My previous two jobs were horrible... low pay, uncaring supervisors, etc. However, I made it a point to learn as much as possible from both jobs. That qualified me...

When I worked in high-speed internet tech support, I got questions like this a lot. One of the answers is almost too easy to think of. Try going to your TCP/IP properties(Advanced) and disable DNS registration for this computer. 9 out of 10 times, that solved it...

While I understand the point you are trying to make, I have to insert my own experience here. I served in the US Army as both an interrogator and a military police NCO. There were a few non-MS proprietary OS's for field gear, but all of the boxes on base I *ever* saw (and worked with - I was...

Here is fun... try working IT in the Army. The US military has its own linguistic subset of the English language, formed primarily of TLAs. I know that when I left the Army, I still spoke in Army-ese and people would just stare at me until I realized that they had no clue what I was saying.
