Twitter is NOTHING like IRC.

I don't care how much they are paying, I'm not going to annoy my visitors. =)

Re: Transition from DD-WRT to Tomato on Linksys Router

I know this is an old post, but you should always do a reset after you upgrade to Tomato from DD-WRT. Always.

No, I'm not using any of the VPN flavors. Just vanilla 1.23. DD-WRT info that is still in the NVRAM after you upgrade to Tomato can cause problems in some cases. That's why I suggested to always do a reset after upgrading. :)

Re: 50 Best Firefox extensions for Powerful Browsing

You should only link to extensions that are on addons.mozilla.org to ensure people are getting safe extensions. Not only that, addons.mozilla.org will tell you if an extension will work with the current browser you're using, and I'm sure at least 90% of these don't work with the version I'm using. :)

Re: Reduce Firefox Memory Consumption Tremendously With Firefox Ultimate Optimizer

You don't need something like this with Firefox 3. Memory usage is lower then IE7, FF2 and Opera 9.

Re: A handful of Firefox tweaks that will double your browser speed

network.http.pipelining.maxrequests is hardcoded at 8. Setting it above 8 won't do anything, which is a good thing. Server administrators don't like users that pound the hell out of their servers with mass amounts of connections. Doesn't do anyone any good.

Re: Hack Attack : Get Windows XP SP3 Through Windows Update

@ Kevin:

Most of those have already been released and you probably already have them installed. What's the point in getting this any earlier? It's a beta. It means it can kill your system dead.

Does absolutely nothing here.

Re: xBox 360 number 5 will be gone soon

I'm currently on my 5th Xbox 360 as well. I finally got one with a 2008 manufacture date so I don't think I'll have anymore problems with it, but we'll see.

How is a bikini not safe for children? Are there not children at the beach? Or the swimming pool? I hardly think seeing a woman in a bikini is going to scar your children. :)

Re: Disable Windows 7 SuperFetch

Brian — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 23:12:12 -0000

Disabling superfetch is a sure way to 1) slow down the Windows 7 startup time and 2) slow down the overall Windows 7 experience.

I have 8GB of DDR2 installed w/ Windows 7 Pro x64 and I leave memory management and such to Windows 7. It does a fine job on it's own. :)

NOD32 won't let me download this. Says it's a trojan variant.
