While you're at it, do one of those online tests for the Superfish-backdoor. They haven't been on the ball about recalling the machines with it installed.

I wouldn't trust anything from Lenovo , I'm prety sure all the major anti malware programs all offer similar removal help , plus it's easy to manually remove Superfish, there were day 1 instructions with pictures.

Just remembered that Amazon Pantry exists so I ordered a bunch of food and sodas cause I really don't want to leave my house unless it's absolutely needed. Not sick or anything, just kinda hermitizing this week.

Oh yea, cat litter too. Cheaper with free prime shipping than me buying it at the local walmart.

Since this thread seems a lot more trafficked than the recommendation thread, can someone recommend me a wifi video camera that can record to a local pc (not cloud based)? Also, my pc is a mac. Short of that, a camera with good picture that I can view remotely? I've looked at the dropcam and while the picture is good apparently, it will only save to their subscription based cloud service.

Yeah but that's the only way to save video. Local saving isn't an option with dropcam, which is why I wanted something different.

They fit perfect. I wear a 41 to 42.5 and a 41 was ideal. They have only gotten more comfortable the longer I wear them.

I'm a sucker for Yokito Kishiro & so far his art holds up. I'm curious how he's going to wrap up a lot of plot threads he's got going though...

I bought these a week ago while in CA on my way to Yosemite but whatevs.
