ParticipantYour wrong.
After forty all bets are off.
One of my best friends since high school won’t make fifty.
He has a young son and having just one myself his slowing passing serves as a constant reminder to love and cherish everyday I have with my son and not to waste a single day not doing so.
Sad man… Sad,

Participant[quote=moneymaker]I use a VPN connection on a tablet at work that goes through Verizon and was just wondering why it seems so unstable, seems like I have to relog in several times a day which is a real pain in the arse, especially when I don’t realize the connection has been lost and am unaware that things aren’t happening on the other end. Maybe I just need a VPN monitoring app that flashes the screen when the VPN goes down. There is a little icon in the task bar but I don’t notice right away when the VPN connection is lost.[/quote]
I am assuming that you are refering to going through a cellular network.
If this is the case more than likely the heartbeat of the VPN doesn’t happend frequently enough to keep the data session live. In both EVDO and LTE the data connection to your tablet is not always open and the cell release unused resources. If there isnt enough data passing over the channel while the cell is monitoring the time between requests it will turn down the physical resources (channels, RF power, yada yada). If it is long enough it will release resource and your tunnel might get torn down. I am not sure if you have turn up the reoccurance of th eVPN heartbeat… this might keep your tunnel alive… however if the site is a very busy cell or your time is long enough between request, it is entirely possible that it releasing IP based resources as well which will tear down the logical path as well as the physical.
Releasing the logical resource will kill the tunnel.
What is being release is the difference between a quick connect (which you wouldnt even notice) and a slow connect which you will hate…
Cell phone companys do not want you constantly connected to thier towers for obvious reasons.

They sure are constructing a lot of new buildings.

Participant[quote=moneymaker]Resource monitor says my memory is working at about 50% but my hard drive seams to be running around 90%, hard drive light is on almost all the time, have kept it clean and defragmented, it’s getting a little full with only about 15% left. Tried to add more with disk management but it would not allow me to increase, only shrink volume. My stupid HP recovery manager does not work so maybe i’ll delete the recovery partition to get more space, or go buy a bigger hard drive.[/quote]
The recommendation for windows is 20 percent. I would suggest using a SSD for the OS and traditional drives for data storage as others have stated…
I just built a new machine and bought a PCIe SSD for my OS and games. I use traditional HDDs for my videos, pics, documents, and music.
Window 8.1 boots from the SSD in a matter of seconds… Really… about 8 seconds to full boot without credentials… Its a 10 Gbps interface and I get about 8 read and 7 write…
As for throttling… its possible but if your HDD is spinning all the time it sounds like you just need more storage.
BTW… I just bought a WD 2 TB HDD for 67 dollars from FRYs. That is a lot of memory for 75 bucks…

ParticipantSpdrun is right…

Participant[quote=outtamojo][quote=CDMA ENG][quote=outtamojo]Yeah but to lay off people because they aren’t worth their pay means at some point someone did feel they were worth their pay and the decisionmakers were wrong to think that. The people who were wrong need to pay the price for their error – as a shareholder/owner that is what I demand and I see too often only the rank and file suffering.[/quote]
You are assuming that business needs are static… They are not.
At one time thousand of people were employeed to build ICBMs… THe business need has changed. Is that the C-Levels fault?
Let’s look at it a different way. Your claim that CEO made a bad decision and needs to pay for their error is also incorrect. Those employees were given a job and paid for their time and efforts. Perhaps that is a job they would have not had at all. That actually seems like an error in favor of the employee and not the CEO as they are usually performance based compensations.
As far as your comment that it is the Rank and File that suffers… Maybe that’s true…
But anyone that feels that way is assuming that they are entitled to their job…
There are no guarntees in life and no one should ever position themselves to be wholely dependent on one thing.

P.S.
I should have read the rest of this thread before posting now realizing that ppl have rebuted the same points over again. Sorry for the redundancy.[/quote]
What about the CEO who over-expanded his community hospital and bought overpriced commercial properties during the bubble and then had to slash and diveste who was still being rewarded with bonuses as he was doing so?
Yes those who lost their jobs were paid for a while but his empire building clearly hurt the hospital itself and after he finally abruptly resigned the board looked at selling us off to a stronger partner. Actually he didn’t abruptly resign, he did it after the Unions fought a media war with him over all his bonuses and special retirement packages he was receiving as he cut services via layoffs. Some were saying he deserves the extra pay for doing a necessary dirty job.
We on this blog otoh saw all the economic distress coming and would have hunkered down instead of expanding : )
I don’t view your post is redundant BTW.[/quote]Well that is a different story… However in a lot of those types of situation the CEO was not acting independently and had the backing of a board. If he had been successful more jobs would have followed.
In general I don’t disagree with you. I have seen CEO use companies as their own little investment firm but again… The “little guy’ argument doesn’t hold with me. I am a little guy and never take my job for granted nor am I ever without a plan B.
The world just isn’t fair… and to wax on about these type of situations is futile. My grandfathers said the same things that my grandsons will complain about… Its just life.

Participant[quote=flu]The first step to saving a lot of money off or your groceries is shopping at places like Zion Markets off of clairemont instead of places like Vons or Ralph’s at full price.
I think the last time I was there at Zion, I bought 3lbs of peaches for like 89 cents total, when Vons and Ralph’s were selling peaches for like $1.50 per pound…
And yes folks, they were USA peaches, not grown in China…
Yeah and the food court is right on to… Real authentic stuff…

Participant[quote=UCGal]My understanding of things is the pre-marital separate assets became joint as soon as he co-mingled it in a jointly owned asset.
I’ve been told that premarital separate assets, or inherited assets, need to be kept separate – as soon as you comingle them, they’re joint.
I’m assume the title of the house was joint tenants. If the title was tenants in common, his percentage is laid out there.[/quote]
Ahhhh… UCgal with your usual wisdom… How does one so young get so wise?
Now to crack wise…
You left out the fourth option which involves your ankles and a lot of discomfort.
But yes… Consult an attorney…

Participant[quote=livinincali][quote=doofrat]
If you like watching spectator sports, you won’t get that, and some content is delayed or not available, so it’s not for everyone, but with more people cutting cable, I think it’s inevitable that everything goes to streaming. IMHO complaining about Cable is like complaining about milk delivery or land line phone service, it’s an old technology that’s past it’s prime.[/quote]The problem is somebody has to build out the infrastructure to support everybody streaming. That costs a lot of money. If you cut the cord you might get a little bit ahead right now, but in the future your internet bill is going to be the same $150/mo it costs to have a bundle now. It actual costs more money to deliver everyone their own separate stream then it does to send everybody the same stream at the same time. Cord cutting only works better right now because not that many people are doing it and those that don’t are subsidizing those that do. I.e. they pay the same price for internet but use much less bandwidth.[/quote]

ParticipantDude…
Get yourself a HVLP system and shoot the paint yourself…
You can do better than ghetto and if you know what you are doing… show finish with it…
Fuji makes a great 3 stage for like 550…
Apollo is here in Vista as well if you want to support the local boys but they are a bit more expensive…
You would propably find yourself shooting more paint and making the ghetto rabbit shiner!

Check them those systems out on youtube… just search HVLP.

Cool – I just learned a new Italian verb – puzzare. I can see it being a useful verb. 🙂
And I’m sure the mini CE bambino is not so odorific as you imply.
