| Bart PE is a good place to start when making a custom recovery and diagnostics discs. F-Secure's BackLight and Rootkit Revealer (part of the sysinternals suite already mentioned) are good automated tools for sniffing out rootkits. Ice sword will help find what those can't, but its really tool to help you find them on your own. There's a free portable version Avira antivirus, as well as a ClamWin. And although I'm not sure it counts as a portable app, but Microsoft has a free web based version of the Line OneCare scanner, it takes forever but it catches quite a bit. Also, no diagnostic toolkit is complete without memtest 86. |

| I'm not sure why this article refers to this as a VPN, I'm pretty sure the word they're looking for is proxy. Anyway, I assume the reason they're charging for this is because everything you send or receive over the internet would have to be piped through their servers, which means huge bandwidth costs, even for Sweden. I would consider this service, if it's as least as fast as my current cable connection (about 7Mbps), otherwise it would just be a bottleneck. |

| No where in the article or the ipredator site is it implied that it only for use with The Pirate Bay website, or their tracker. Actually, that would be kind of useless. All a tracker does is give a list of peers, you still have to make a direct connection to them to download a piece of your file(s). Even if this service only relayed data between you and peers listed on their tracker, it would still be a huge amount of bandwidth. |

| I don't give a second thought to whether or not something I want to eat is healthy or not. If it's truly bad for me (like, poisonous or something), it probably wouldn't taste very good. There's a reason why all the things that taste the best seem to also be unhealthy. It's because they aren't unhealthy, it just that because they taste good people eat way too much of them and it becomes unhealthy. Anything in excess is unhealthy. Eat a bunch of fruits and vegetables and your body will become overloaded with sugar, it won't burn fat for energy, you'll become morbidly obese, your insulin production will shut down and you'll be a diabetic. Eat a bunch of meat, your arteries will become clogged with cholesterol you'll have a muscle infarction and won't be able to walk, or a stoke and you won't be able to walk or talk, or a heart attack and you'll just die. I think about as healthy diet as you can have is just eat whatever you have a taste for, pace yourself and push your plate away as soon as you start to feel full. |

| Maybe it's because I didn't grow up with a TV, computer, or video games, but this really doesn't seem like a big deal to me. If you can't bring yourself to go just three days without these things, then maybe going without would be good for you. God help you if you lose power for an extended period. |

| I used work at a machine shop. I programmed, setup and ran CNCs, and setup and ran really old single spindle screw machines (I know that doesn't mean anything to anybody). I worked there for 5 years, but I never really got very good at it. On the one hand I was good at working on the machines, I understood how they worked and how the tools cut, I could do quick setups and was a pretty good programmer. On the other hand I've always had major problems with attentiveness and details. There's little to no margin for error when you're working with a $500,000 machine making very expensive parts (with +/- 1/5000 of an inch tolerances on dimensions) with very low profit margins, missing or forgetting little details becomes very expensive. Hiring me to work there was a bit like hiring a bull to mind your china shop. So I eventually quit that job and started a computer repair business. Business is sometimes slow (sometimes nonexistent), but I'm getting by. I don't make nearly as good of money, but I also don't dread getting out of bed every morning, so I think it's a pretty good trade off. I was going to write more about that job, but this post is already pretty long, so I'll just leave it at that. |

Originally posted by Nao The shop I worked at was actually growing pretty good at the time I left (still only 10 employees last I knew, though). The CNCs I ran were Tsugami swiss lathes. Basically like a normal lathe, only the collet pushes the entire bar back and forth in a guide bushing, so the material moves into the tools rather than the other way around. Programming them isn't too hard. It came with CAM software, but it was incredibly buggy and hard to use, it was actually easier to program the G Code by hand. Normally, I would just modify an existing program. Unlike normal computer programming, though, bugs often cause things to physically ram into each other. |

Originally posted by Colin I was confused by this until I realized Canadians use odd terminology. In the US, whole just means no fat is removed, I've never seen non-homogenized for sale. (That seems like it would kind of gross, actually). I grew up on skimmed, so i don't mind drinking it. But I always buy whole now, because it's the same price, and I don't have anything against fat. And I could be a multibillionaire and I still wouldn't be able just pour out the left over milk in my cereal bowl. It just seems too wasteful. |

Originally posted by Colin Homogenization is where they break the fat in the milk up into small enough particles that they don't clump together and separate from the water, forming a film on the surface. So it really it's all homogenized. Come to think of it though, a lot of people around here refer to whole milk specifically as "Vitamin D" milk, even though it all has vitamin D. |

| 7/10. Definitely original for video game music. Seems a little generic though. Anyway, I was just listening to this (An mp3, not this video though. Slide shows don't really help me enjoy music): |

| I'm 6 foot even. Do I pick 5'6 - 6'0, or 6'0 - 6'5? |

| I sneeze very loud. Also for some reason, sun light on my face makes me sneeze. |

| Really want The Beatles Rock Band, and I don't even really like Rock Band. $250 just seems like a lot of money. I guess I'll wait and see what's on it. The site said something like "Please, Please me to Abby Road", but I assume that doesn't include all music on those albums. I certainly wouldn't want to try play along with Revolution 9 for instance. Maybe I'll buy the game by itself and give it to my sister, since she already has the instruments, then I can play it when I come over. I can't wait to yell "I've got blisters on my fingers!". |

| Apparently, there's a whole Wikipedia article about it. |
