Windows 7 problem
I usually go through the interface. It's usually quarantined (albeit, not in the Windows system folder), and you just go to quarantined items and delete them from within there. I don't know what F-Secure is.

Windows 7 problem
To get you to buy the paid version? (I used the free version, then switched to the paid version, myself. But I'm also not as sure about what any of them caught and what they didn't. I am definitely of the mind to do a full install when I suspect something.)

Windows 7 problem
Yup, I've used BitDefender, in fact, I should probably go back. I think we've gotten to the point where an AV is only as good as its target profile, I.E. if the hackers are targetting it more or less. If less, then it's a better AV. Which is loosely correlated to how popular it is, hence why Norton and McAfee aren't as effective as they used to be -- because they're the most popular. And if not, at least it's a major factor.

Cable modem/router?
Well, they're both in black, so moot point either way. And I did know that about desert tribes!

And now what did you do TODAY?
You'll do great, Jacob!

What are you listening to Part the Third
Jupiter Society -- totally dig this. It's not as metal as Leprous, so not sure why they listed it as similar. It's more "hard prog" in the typically bombastic vein. Melikey.

The Knuckledragger 3rd Memorial Slow Forum Post
What could possibly go wrong? Comments include: "Take the flag off...slowly." "At least bring it to half mast." "Melanoma?"

Cable modem/router?
I like the way you think, but ( a ) if you look in the consumerism thread, I already purchased the C-7 or whatever it's called, and ( b ) I'd be afraid I'd accidentally pick a paint that somehow interfered with RF or cooling or something else I hadn't thought of. That'd be just my luck.

Hotmail/Live/Outlook Mail (Preview) Not Updating
I should probably check my hotmail account...I do see an update to the TOU&PS, from back in June. And yes it says Outlook.com at the top, but the interface still looks like the live.com interface I was used to (which is the only one I ever use, as it's an extremely low traffic account). But unlike you, I have almost zero email coming here. Sorry, I got nuthin' useful for you.

Good cheap caliper?
Actually, this one appears to be accurate to 0.0001" and goes to 12", so yeah, think I'm going with that one purchased. EDIT: Although one report said thousandth of an inch, which is 0.001", so might get a little more tight on the high E string, so...we'll see.

Cable modem/router?
Thanks. $50 and they have it in black. Purchased. Now I need a new router.
-
Good cheap caliper?
Probably going with this one, yeah? EDIT: I should probably make sure it's accurate enough to differentiate between string gauges, though, so maybe not. If it's between 6-8 inches, I don't need string gauge accuracy, I need measuring tape accuracy, neh? Or will an accuracy of 0.001" make it prohibitively expensive?

Good cheap caliper?
Thanks everyone! Good advice! No, since I'll be doing some stuff on 7- and 8- (and maybe even 9-, eventually) -string guitars, 8" sounds like a good idea.

postjack welcomes new headcase members thread
Technically, it's not water. And it's not really jacuzzi-ing, either, as that would result in more like a soup. It's like jacuzzi-ing with an hermetically sealed skinsuit. Which doesn't sound anywhere near as appealing. In fact, now it sounds more like a horror movie. "Boiled Sous vided alive!"

I can stream Mixlr at work! So I'm going to listen to a bunch of Knucks' showreels.

Good cheap caliper?
I need a caliper for my guitar experimentation. Is there a better value out there than this one? I see this one on Amazon -- any good?

Post what you're watching
Bill Burr, I'm Sorry You Feel That Way -- fluctuates a little bit, but for the most part, very funny. I especially liked the shit about .22 -- I am sanctified!

What are you listening to Part the Third
I do love it. I love Riverside. I was putting together a list of bands that I would like to see if they ever cross the pond: The Sirens, Pineapple Thief, Riverside, and Pain of Salvation (and I'm sure there are others). I missed Pain of Salvation -- they were actually here recently, I didn't think to look in time.

What are you listening to Part the Third
I did it, I did it! Oh, and my particular venue (Canal Club in Richmond, VA, in case you want to follow along at home) is general admission, so best possible position will be obtained the night of the performance, assuming I don't forget. (I totally spaced on Calexico, after I purchased tickets.) A friend of mine made me get this (because it's such a crazy good value) -- is that the same second disk?

What are you listening to Part the Third
What? No, I knew, not your fault at all, and tickets aren't sold out. I know exactly what happened: my fucking addled brain can't handle getting up from the chair to get my credit card info without forgetting by the time I get back. the farthest I've gotten is putting my wallet in front of my computer, then gone off to bed. By the time I got up the next morning, I had forgotten why the wallet was there, and not in my pocket. It's happened like 4 times so far -- JUST WITH THIS CONCERT. Okay, I'm going to post this, get up, get my wallet, and come back, so if I don't post a follow up that I actually purchased the ticket in a couple minutes...well, that's #5 then, innit? EDIT: Purchased, thanks for the prompt! EDIT #2: In the Nursery is something else entirely, try before you buy, I'm not at all promising you'll like it, it's a completely different genre of music EDIT #3: Just finished Chilly Gonzalez, Chambers, now starting Goldfrapp and friends, soundtrack to My Summer of Love.

Um...(wanders off to make sure he didn't miss tickets going on sale/selling out)...
