It's not exactly technolog but my inner geek is clapping with joy and firing magic missiles at it, while my common sense is asking why. http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/titaniumlabyrinth.html

So - I just bought this the other day. EXCELLENT expansion - very addicting. I guess the models for the dogs could look better (atleast they included the Mal and the Sibe models this time!), but that's why they allow you to fully customize the physical features of the dog. You can also have cats, horses, racoons, unicorns, and the little stuff (birds, hamsters, snakes, turtles, etc.) Overall, the best expansion for the Sims 3 I've bought. Worth the money. Who else has played it?

I've been using this macbook for a few months now but I'm still not used to it. It's just so very different from Windows and I'm having trouble in controlling the personal preferences thing. Now every time I click an application (such as Skype or Microsoft Words) it starts up by itself whenever I turn the laptop on. This is disturbing for sure, but I can't find just WHERE can I edit the settings so that the applications won't start themselves up whenever I turn the macbook on. I almost gave up, but then I clicked an app by accident and now it also starts itself up every time. It won't be such a big deal if this app doesn't take quite a long time to load (while loading I c…

Hellooo I don't know if anyone can help but I am having a total mare with my hotmail account. On Thursday morning I tried to log ina nd was told the account had been blocked. I was given an option to provide a mobile phone number where I could get a code to regain access....I tried with my own number and with a friends number several times and no code received. I then tried the 'Forgotton password' option. This sent me a link to an alternative email address. I have done this 4 times now. Each time the link says 'temporary problem, please try again later.' It is now Sunday...I have been trying to regain access since Thursday. I've now emailed s…

I have a compaq notebook.When i got it, it was a mobile phone package freeebie. i mostly only do HO and a bit of fb,ebay and email so dont require loads of space or speed. How do these thingies work and is there anything in particular i should be looking for?

My husband decided to treat himself and bought a X-box 360. He then decided that the resolution (?) on our TV was not good enough and bought a 42" TV to go with it My duaghter now wants to buy him a game for Christmas - she knows they are quite expensive, so I told her I would try and find out what games you all play. He received Battlefield 3, Forza Motorsport and Crysis 2 as part of the X-box package. Any suggestions will be appreciated

Saw my cousin use an Apple TV but I'm not an Apple guy. The Boxee looked like the best alternative. I'd mostly be using it for the Navi-X streaming movies. Sounds a lot simpler than building my own HTPC. And cheaper than getting a PS3/X-box but does not have any storage. (Just got BT Infinity broadband so should be able to get up to 38 MB/s.)

Maintenance, Repair and Operation work keeps a business running smoothly. Maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) is one of the costliest functions of facilities management. According to some studies, properly planned and well-kept maintenance services may result in a twenty percent decrease in the operations cost of a business. Maintenance, Repair and Operating (MRO) inventory can represent millions of dollars in investment – yet the vast majority often sits unused year after year. Data cleansing, is the process of amending or removing data in a database that is incorrect, incomplete, improperly formatted, or duplicated. Data can become corrupted or i…

My son has two BA degrees, and has had a terrible time finding employment. He does industrial animations for the company that I work for, but he does so on an order basis, so he is not an employee. One of the issues he has is when it comes to rendering the final product. His one and only computer that he uses to develop the videos, is also used to render the videos; so when a video is rendering, he can't use the computer for anything else. He's decided to build a render farm, starting off small with two boxes, and will build from there. Has anyone had any experience with compiling or using a render farm? Any info would be appreciated.
