    Not sure if I've ever posted this before, but this is an old video that I sometimes watch before going to bed:

    Remote Access To Desktop

    That is not correct, by default the shutdown/restart options are hidden. You can still reboot or shutdown with the "shutdown /r" and "shutdown /s" commands. I think there is also a way to actually unhide the shutdown/restart options as well. Even better is to configure your router so that it...

    How many kids do you want?

    Life is horrendously cruel and awful, I'm glad I haven't condemned another soul to the same fate.

    Ownership Verified: Viper's 2008 Dodge Viper SRT-10 (A 17+ Year Dream Come True!)

    On certain cars, you can read the error codes without a reader, on my 93 Pontiac Formula this was possible. At the time I used a pair of scissors to connect two pins on the port and by counting the number of times a light flashed on the instrument panel, I got the code. Edit: Nevermind, looks...

    2012 Formula 1 Petronas Malaysia Grand Prix

    Great race, but why does F1 even bother to have full wet tires anymore? It seems to me that 95% of the time when it rains, it's either raining slow enough for intermediates, or it's raining so hard that the SC has to come out. Also, pro DVR tip: set the recording end time of live sporting...

    Sortable database with pictures?

    With those kinds of numbers, you should probably think about MSSQL or MySQL rather than Access. https://www.mysql.com/ http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/editions/express.aspx Access may technically get the job done, but I've always thought it kind of blows. I'd suggest starting with the...

    Idiots + cars = LOL

    Don't know about Texas, but around here people can't even figure out whose turn it is on a four way stop sign. And even cops can't seem to be able to figure out what the correct lane to be in is. (In other words, people can't ever drive properly on a straight piece of road). I'd expect a good...

    New tire season - advice thread

    I currently run on Yokohama AD07's, I love those tires. Very grippy, doesn't squeal easily and when it breaks away, it's nice and controllable. But good god those things have gotten expensive, TireRack is selling them for almost $350 a piece now. That's almost twice the price that I paid for...

    And So, My Epic Battle Begins...

    I've had moles for years, but tbh, it doesn't really bother me, I just run over the little hills with my mower, and I throw a few seeds on spots every year. I also have ground squirrels, bushy tailed squirrels, frogs/toads, birds and I've even seen a baby rabbit. (I also saw a red fox once but...
