      Took the kids trick or treating in the neighborhood earlier and had the court down the street offering Fireball to the adults.

      +1 for the neighborhood offering booze.
      -5 for it being Fireball, because I am not @Dashrender

      Come on Man! You know you love it! 😄

        @Dashrender to SW? Yeah. I've never paid for that.

        I haven't paid in like 3 years either.

        Year nine here!

            Quick boot up repair on the Xubuntu Lappy... wow, I remember more Linux than I thought! still simple stuff. Remembered a fix after about 15 minutes of trying to boot it up.

            All this in an effort to format my eBay freebie micro SD card that came in the mail today. Victory 😄

              Running MS Updates on a desktop,... Installing O2016 and considering a SSD drive for my laptop. It currently has a 1TB drive,.. My data folder is about 190GB - mainly photos which need to be moved and archived.

              Do I go with a 1TB or should I go less... Hmmmm...

                ~$230 for a 1TB Mushkin SSD, seems reasonable. But if you aren't even using close to that, why bother to spend more for a higher capacity drive?

                  About what I was thinking. Just running WinDirStat I see that most of my used space is a backup of my mother-in-laws computer... 90% of which is photos...

                  Over all I'm running 688 GB free of 889GB - Seems to me if I pushed the backups off o the NAS where they are suppose to be, I would be fine with a 500GB

                    Which you might find for as little as $100 so save the extra money.

                        I like to take credit for starting a drinkfest in our neighborhood each Halloween.

                                      Automatic partition table creation / manipulation of raw disk images using /dev/loop, sfdisk and parted. Sounds easy enough, but there are dozens of possible pitfalls:

                                      • source image file not found / no access
                                      • target image file issues
                                      • underlying disk full
                                      • boundaries
                                      • optimal sector alignment

                                            I was dead sure that I still have a Chieftec DA-01 somewhere, but I can't find it.

                                            So I'm looking for a new case now. Saw a post from @moka here at ML mentioning Fractal Design, they look pretty great. I don't need anything that looks like a Predator or Transformer. But I also really hate cases where you may loose two or three fingers just from looking at them.

                                            Any thoughts about the Fractal Design Define S?
