Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I need a new laptop case for my 13" MacBook. Am thinking of getting a backpack (one specifically designed for a laptop). Any recommendations?

Not for a backpack (though I have a great shoulder bag from Target that I'd recommend for girls...I can't find it online, but they just restocked in the store, it's brown and has a turqoise interior and a great padded zippy pocket in the middle for a laptop...)

It's not a bag, but I do recommend the RadTech sleevey things--I had one for my old powerbook, and ordered one for my new macbook--it's nice for not taking up any extra room, but protecting from scratches and stuff.

I think 7-Zip can handle spanned zip.

From what I heard, 7-zip is pretty awesome about handling almost every kind of archive.

re: laptop backpacks, Lifehacker has a nice post with a number of links on the subject here, [link]

Hmph. I can't figure out why my new laptop Eowyn can't see Rosie, but Rosie can see Eowyn. Everything was working so smoothly with my setup that I am miffed that there is the slightest bit of trouble.

Also, it has occurred to me only now that if I am using Frodo's network card for Eowyn to get online, then I can't transfer files from Frodo to Eowyn. I have to transfer them from Frodo to Rosie and then from Rosie to Eowyn. Harumph.

Kubuntu is just ubuntu for the KDE environment, right?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

SA, yep.

Okay, there. Now Eowyn & Rosie can both see each other. We'll have to see what happens with Estel gets home.

In fact, if you have Ubuntu installed you can just do "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and now you have Kubuntu.

Does anybody have one of those wireless weather stations, where you stick a (set of) sensor(s) outside and it monitors indoor and outdoor temperature, rainfall, etc? Any brand or model recommendations? I want something midrange, not where the house looks like a total freak lives in it, but where I can gather some useful information, from the new land, etc. But not, like, crazy expensive.
