FCKGW posted:Hit up DarkLotus in the Lithium Hosting thread in SA-Mart. He can probably setup the Wordpress install for you and then you really won't need to mess with the backend hosting stuff at all. Almost all hosts use cPanel which is extremely popular and therefore has tons of documentation. Thanks, I'll give that a try!

I have about $10 on some prepaid credit cards, and I'd like to cash them out so I can throw them away and quit worrying about them. I thought about paypal, but they don't allow you to send money to yourself and I'd prefer not to make a second account just for this. Any suggestions?

You can name the amount, so it's a good way to clean out the last penny from multiple prepaid cards. Send the amazon certificates to yourself or sell them at SAmart.

Somehow I have a file on Dropbox that's not getting synched properly. My desktop and my Android phone show the proper version, but my laptop and Android tablet do not. What could be causing this?

I vaguely remember a movie with a name beginning with a 'K' that was nothing but music and scenes of landscapes without dialog or people. I kinda want to say something like Korpalaanki but nothing remotely like that has been useful in googling it. This ring a bell for anyone? edit: Thanks.

If you like(d) Koyaanisqatsi, check to see if Samsara is still playing in any cinema near you. Awesome awesome awesome to see on a big-screen (or, even better, in 4k, if you're lucky enough to be near that).

A few more like that are Baraka and Ashes and Snow, though I have seen neither they're always mentioned in the same breath as Koyaanisqatsi so if you ever want to have a marathon of films that remind you there is so much to live for, there you go.

Haven't heard of the latter, though Baraka is by the same director as Samsara, who was the DP on Koyaanisqatsi. He's got this habit of building some of the camera setups they use to shoot-- dude knows his craft.

I grabbed this from Ashes and Snow on a whim because I liked it so much:  The film seems to be a whole lot more of that. Humans among cheetahs, elephants, hawks. Gorgeous stuff. My fiance is the one who told me about it, confessing if I ever caught him up late at night staring at his monitor in a way I'd be jealous of, it's because he's watching this film. And I believe him on that.

Refresh my memory. I recall reading at one point about a religion who believed that certain people, who have accomplished certain extraordinary things, should, and in fact are (by these people) worshiped as gods or saints (one of these). I remember Edward Jenner (the smallpox guy) being on this list of people 'worthy of worship', and I would be interested in reading more.

What are some good (ideally mainstream) titles that are available on both PC and Mac, so my boyfriend and I can play together- we love us some co-op, but he has a PS3, I've a 360... poo poo's rough. He has a Macbook... Pro? I think? So they can't be too intensive in regards to the graphics and computing. I'm not really a computer guy. We're into shooters mostly, but an RTS or RPG ain't too bad neither. Synonymous fucked around with this message at 17:09 on Nov 4, 2012 |

I like co-op and shooters, but don't have any experience with OSX games, sorry. There's a Recommend me a Game thread in Games which it might be worth cross-posting this to, though. There might be some split-screen games on the PS3 or 360 you could play. There's also Portal 2, which is not a shooter but is a lot of fun in co-op and supports all four of the platforms mentioned.

What is wrong with our clothes dryer? So, around three months ago, the heating element in the dryer burned out. Whatever, stuff burns out after so long. We took that opportunity to clear our the exhaust tube figuring that may have played a part in it possibly overheating. Fast forward to last week, heating element goes out again. Guy at the parts shop said it probably overheated since the new ones are designed to automatically go out if they become too hot to prevent fires. So we looked at the exhaust tube again, we had missed a whole bunch of lint at one end. Alright, so maybe it overheated. This time the tube was fully taken off and completely cleared out. A new element was put in, but instead of lasting around 3 months, this time it lasted a whole 3 spin cycles. Now what in the heck could be causing this to happen? If it's overheating again it's definitely not because of a blocked exhaust.

You should get Steam and then get Portal 2 and the Left4Dead games. They are available for both Windows and OSX.

axolotl farmer posted:You should get Steam and then get Portal 2 and the Left4Dead games. They are available for both Windows and OSX. Actually, yeah, do a search on Steam for Type: Games, OS: SteamPlay, Category: Co-Op and you'll get all the games that support both OSX and Windows (that's the "SteamPlay" part) and have a co-op mode. It's a pretty short list, though.  You could also look into older games that support co-op and have open-source implementations these days - DXX-Rebirth (Descent 1 and 2), Aleph One (Marathon trilogy), gzDoom (Doom, Doom 2, and related games), and eDuke32 (Duke Nukem 3D) all support co-op and should run on both OSX and Windows, for starters.

Washing fleece is really not a big deal if you follow the care instructions. Most people seem to ruin their fleece jackets by drying on hight heat. Or are you feeling too lazy to put it in the washing machine?

Not lazy, just nervous. I've had too many jackets come out of the wash deformed. Maybe I'll hang it up to dry instead.

I can't connect to my secure WiFi network with my Android phone. The "Connect" button is blanked out and does not respond. When I unsecure my network, however, I can connect. My WiFi worked perfectly well with my previous Android phone. What is going on here?

Pretty well what the other guy said, the age of VOIP means that area code registration is pretty well pointless now. Other VOIP services based out of california include Skype, MagicJack, etc. etc. Google voice is at least good enough that they usually have the message 'this number is used for Google voice and doesn't terminate in any one end user'.

I swear I saw this functionality on YouTube at some point, but it's eluding me at the moment. For the record I am definitely not a YouTube pro. How do I go about viewing things such as "Most viewed of all time" & "Most viewed in the category of..."? I could have sworn these were links on the front page at some point, but I can't find them. Hell, I can't even really find a front page, everything seems to be in strangely crafted "Topics" that don't seem to follow any specific order. Also, I think I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere, as I no longer have page numbers showing up at the bottom of channels. There is a "Load More" button in its place, and I can't figure out what I must have changed...it's quite annoying.

Well, this seems to be what you're after, though I don't think it's accessible through the front page anymore. I'm not sure about the page numbers. YouTube has done a number of site redesigns in the last few years, each one making it a lot harder for me to navigate.
