I'm using an i7 MBP as a part-time gaming machine, but it gets quite hot when playing for long periods (as expected). I've been elevating it just using books to get some airflow underneath it, but I'm wondering if anyone can recommend something fan-assisted. I've seen the big-ish...

Haha! Nice idea. Maybe Apple's in your router, trying to get you to buy more Apple hardware, platypus.

That's weird, works perfectly for me with largely the same setup (WPA2/Personal, hidden). It takes slightly longer because I think it looks at all the visible networks for one that it remembers as a priority, then starts to look for hidden ones. I don't know if that's right, but I do know that...

Good call, cheers for posting :)

Right now, I only have 1TB capacity in my house, so a 1.5TB drive is fine to start with. I'll be installing debian or ubuntu as it has to match or get close to the live servers I use for work. I don't have space to attach external drives, hence looking at cases like the lian-li q08 (when is this...

K, so after a little mindless poking around, I've come up with this: -- Corsair XMS3 TwinX 2GB (2x1GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz Dual Channel Kit -- Zotac H55ITX-A-E LGA1156 DDR3 miniITX Motherboard -- Intel Core i3 530 2.93Ghz (Clarkdale) (Socket LGA1156) - Retail -- Western Digital...

I'm hoping I can get a pretty definite answer here, as my knowledge of hardware isn't what it used to be! I'm looking to build a low-power, 24/7 server for all the things listed in the title, plus other admin-y things (maybe an itunes server if I can find a distro that will support it) but I...

Maybe reserve your "harsh" presumptuous responses until you know the facts, mmmkay?

That's the cornerstone of the whole case really - it's hardly conspiracy to defraud if you have never spent any of the proceeds on yourself. Of course, he could've been conspiring to...

Sounds like you got off lightly. I saw Stewart Lee last year. I was in hysterics the whole way through - amazing atmosphere and show. I've discovered that I'm not a huge fan of standup comedy. I basically only like Jack Dee, Bill Hicks and Stewart Lee consistently.

I don't know how you could've even considered getting rid of him! Look at that squishy little face!

This works for us, too. We found that paper training was making him go inside rather than ask us to go out. I would rather he went inside (we have tile floors in the kitchen - his room), told "no", then put outside so he knew where toilet was. We now only have infrequent accidents, but he's only...

Having a puppy is super hard. There are days when I think it's way too difficult, but our little guy seems to relish in patience and attention, so if he's being a bit naughty, I just drop everything and play with him for a while til he calms down. We're lucky because I'm home all day and can let...

Don't use Dreamweaver. If you have to use a WYSIWYG, use Expression Web - at least it generates decent markup.

Ahhh, you meant in photoshop! I did wonder. Just use guides and the marquee tool. There's probably an easier way, but that will help you get it pixel perfect.

So learn some HTML and CSS and stand before you walk.

How would one go about processing roll film from something like this? I've always been super interested in cameras like this, but I haven't got the first clue of how you process it!

Whilst having a natural flare for web design will help you up a few steps, it's possible to learn it. One step at a time, though, I would recommend. Learn HTML and CSS, then learn a bit of javascript, then download mootools and save yourself about 10 years every year. Don't worry about your...

hehe, to be honest, you could've probably got most of the battle using explode. I can appreciate blastman's wanting to become more familiar with PHP before doing things the "right" way, but that seems counterproductive to me. If you want to become familiar with the language, set yourself little...

man, that just seems so convoluted, doing it that way!
