As it's been on radio, television, the web, networks, and all other forms of electronic media, if you missed it, I want to know what sized rock you live under and the names of the other trolls you share the bridge with.
But in case you did miss it, it was announced recently, that "stuff posted on the inter-webs" has no expectation of privacy.
I was looking at a new video card for my regular computer (that was before getting Dudette a new machine). The one I have won't handle the newer games available, that was the reason for the search.
I mentioned that I would talk a bit more about the hard drive crash I suffered.
I talked to a true "geek" friend about the whole event. He commiserated at the loss and told me some options I had to recover the data lost. Not like it is a huge secret but he informed me about a couple companies that recover the information on a dead drive. He was gracious in explaining how they do it and the time and expertise involved. Finally, he got to the main point, cost.
Another blogger I "IM" on occasion, uses a web-cam. It looked like a novel idea, but I didn't put much truck in it. Then, during the course of conversation, (IM-ing of course), they turned it on.
All of a sudden, I had their face and voice on the computer.
Going through the newspaper, there was an article I thought was just so cool. Software for printers, scanners and copiers prevents counterfeiters from copying money.
I've been wanting a digital camera for a while now. This weekend I went out and picked one up. A nice little Kodak Easy Share CX6330. A nice little entry camera.
Boy, is that an oxymoron.
Easy my foot. The thing comes with a users manual that is 100 pages long. At the beginning of the manual it tells you that you can get a LARGER PRINT version, for download, from the Kodak site if the print is too small to read. (and it is) Oh, and did I mention, it's about 100 pages long. Think of all the fun you'll have printing that thing out. Or, you could just get used to reading it on the computer.
That's like the billboard that said, "Illiterate? Write for help here...". If the font is too small to read, how do you read the information on getting a BIGGER print copy? Just asking.
