Seems they are changing the rules to do so. Story here

I mentioned Linux in another topic and was told it deserved it's own thread. Does it work well with email surfing the web and posting images etc? Haven't tried it yet, but was told by a friend that there are virtually no viruses or hackers etc. Any experienced Linux users here?

Yes, these books were written by Samuel Clemens, more famously known as Mark Twain.  I originally read these books at somewhere around the age of twelve, and these writings instilled the need for adventure and travel. Anybody else out there that have read and enjoyed these books?

Went to the store I usually get block ice from, and it seems they were out. I noticed they did have ten pound blocks of dry ice, so I bought one of those and twenty pounds of regular cube ice. Loaded the cooler with that at 11:45 AM today Aug 18. Now I want to see how long that lasts. Last...

I came to this forum to learn, and maybe share knowledge if I had any on a particular subject. Many fine members have come and gone. Sternwake, Hepcat, ArtW, and most recently Gotsmart. I have noted that those whom preach tolerance seem to have the least of it. Further, those that say there is...

So I went to Walmart today, and as I arrived at the entrance I noted there was a car broke down with 4 way flashers on. I parked in a parking spot close to that entrance and walked back to see if there was anything I could do? It was a lady in her late forties, maybe early fifties with what...

Just kidding, Ladies are welcome too. Luv the girls, and hearing their points of view. Now that I have your attention, (I do have it now, don't I) I sometimes wonder why we separate certain subjects by posting titles that exclude others. If you have a real problem you want to deal with, you are...

Dennis Automotive comes recommended from me. I know my way around a car fairly well, and don't often recommend one unless I'm confident he will do an honest job. He's done a couple for me that made me feel comfortable with his honesty and ability. He is just off Rancho Dr, kind of kitty corner...

I don't recall seeing Rob around in a while. Anybody know what happened to him, or where he went?

Anybody have them? Do you actually use it? I suspect a lot of us are older now, and don't do a lot of the things we used to.  I recently decided to chase the spiders out of mine and air up the tires, while threatening to actually use it again. I used to be an avid cyclist, putting an average of...

I had a close lady friend that was still living in the Las Vegas area pass away tuesday. I'm pretty broke up and in shock over this. She was my weekend dinner and movie pal. Sometimes she would cook Italian dinner, sometimes I would buy Chinese take out and bring it over. I moved away a bit...

https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/05/an-nsa-derived-ransomware-worm-is-shutting-down-computers-worldwide/ There is currently an epidemic of global proportions by internet crooks that encrypt your PC with an extension .cry. I hope nobody gets it, but just in case, there is a possible solution...

Starting with unsolicited phone calls that left no message on the answering service, I googled one of the numbers, finding that is was indeed Verizon, so I answered it early this morning. It was a mechanical voice message stating that my balance was past due, and don't hang up, we will give you...

We started having a great conversation about Vikings in the no refrigeration thread and got a bit carried away before we realized we were hijacking that thread. :P  So, can we continue here?

At The Houses of Parliament. It's getting scary out there folks.

Hi, I just tested mine on www.speedtest.net/, and it showed I'm getting 16.56 mbps downloads, and 13.92 mbps upload.  Second test showed 17.32 down, and 7.03 up. Third test, 18.20 down, and  6.96 up. How important are these numbers, and what do they mean?

Are we allowed to post them anywhere on these forums? I was about to reply to a comment on there, and discovered the thread was closed? I was very disappointed. In specific, I'm referring to this thread https://vanlivingforum.com/Thread-Hey-cognitive-dissonance

When I'm bored I cruise CL. I ran across this AD and thought to myself this may be just what one of you might want. If I had the spare cash right now, I would be looking hard at this one. Without further adieu, here's the AD. https://boise.craigslist.org/ctd/6006573911.html
