Eggplant Wizard posted:Sometimes on sunny days I see people (okay, women) (okay, usually Asian women and usually older) walking around with umbrellas to protect them from the sun. I have very fair skin that burns easily (never tans, just burns & goes back to pale) and this seems like a great idea. Sunscreen is okay, but it itches & makes me sticky, and also sometimes I'm not expecting to be out very long and welp 15 minutes later I'm burned so it'd be easier to carry a small umbrella in my bag just in case.

But consider buying powered speakers so you can control the volume on the speakers themselves. Headphones don't come powered, although some do come with volume control.

GobiasIndustries posted:Widescreen Dubbed Subtitle AC3: What the hell does this mean? There are two different versions of American Gangster available for Best Buy's 2-for-$20 sale, one with this label, and one without. I speak english, and while I wouldn't mind having alternate languages available, I want it to be English as the main language. Widescreen format Dubbed, (usually Eng/Fre/Spa): you can hear the movie in French or Spanish if you wish Subtitle Languages: Spanish, for Spanish-speaking viewers who'd rather hear the original English but read what's going on in Spanish AC3 = Dolby Digital = 5.1 surround sound, made for home theaters with 5.1 (five speakers, one subwoofer) sound. As noted below, stores want to point out the main features quickly when advertising a DVD or Blu-ray. In your case, the difference between the two versions is the features you get with the AC3-labeled one: American Gangster[Widescreen] - Blu-ray Disc Sound Digital Theater Systems (akin to 5.1) Languages/Sound Eng/Fre Screen Formats Enhanced Widescreen for 16x9 TV Subtitle Languages Eng/Fre/Spa Additional Features Public Enemies sneak peek download American Gangster[Widescreen Dubbed Subtitle] - Blu-ray Disc Sound Digital Theater Systems (akin to 5.1) Languages/Sound Eng/Fre Screen Formats Enhanced Widescreen for 16x9 TV Subtitle Languages Eng/Fre/Spa Additional Features Feature commentary with director Ridley Scott and writer Steven Zaillian Deleted scenes including an alternate opening Fallen Empire: Making American Gangster Case files Hip-Hop Infusion, Featuring Common and T.I.

thehandtruck posted:What's a free program for Windows 7 that will allow me to capture audio streamed from internet radio sites other than Audacity? Not a program, but you can try Applian's Freecorder Toolbar. It's smart enough now to detect the change from one song or audio clip to another and saves them all in mp3 format until you're done recording, and most times it will let you select which audio source you want to use (for me it's Windows Vista or Freecorder) and then label the recordings. I'm using Windows 7, but it still works.

Danger Mahoney posted:I'm trying to organize my music collection and something annoying keeps happening. When I try to move a folder, Windows tell me that it can't complete the operation because the file or folder is open in another program. I don't have any other programs open, and Lockhunter (a file unlocking program) says that explorer.exe is is the culprit. I assume this is some sort of folder preview or file indexing thing, but it gets really annoying when trying to move a bunch of folders having to unlock every single one. Maybe disable Lockhunter until you're done moving folders?

I've looked all over Amazon and it seems like the 2nd generation only came in white. If you're getting a larger screen than you expected, it's a Kindle DX Graphite, released almost a month before the Kindle 3. Here's a screen comparison between the Kindle 2 (in front) and the Kindle DX.

You can buy as many extensions as money allows if you have a brand name to protect.
