    HP All-in-One printer help needed

    Unplug it from the wall for about 15 minutes. If that doesn't work, buy another one. You will NOT get any usable help from HP. I bought a 6700 to replace a 3200 series a few years ago. The "new" one goes through ink 3 times faster, manages to need all 3 colors at the same time, is noisier...

    It's Just a Lake!

    Oh crap. I had such a blast there one July 4th weekend a very long time ago. I remember me and a couple of hotties at the end of the bar closest to the door. All of a sudden some cowboy came running down the hallway, slammed into the middle of the bar with his stomach, head hit the bar top...

    I don't give a fuck. Why should I? I'll be DEAD.

    Talk about great Airline seats!!!

    Gee, I don't know. Looking up at the sky for hours seems like a pretty fucking boring thing to do. I've seen the sky before.

    Here it comes

    I guarantee that, if ever it reaches market, it will not be a "Henry Ford affordable" product. So, don't hold your breath.

    Unfucking believable. Gee, I wonder why we've lost faith in our government.

    Astronomy Anarchy

    Yeah well, that's a good one for the hot tub except it's been bloody fucking raining (and some snow) for 2 solid weeks now. Haven't seen stars or the moon so long I forget what they look like....

    Windoze 10 upgrade??

    You can say that again. After 24 years, I gave up in 1989 and bailed. They were ostriches with their heads in the sand. I warned about video in the 70's and then digital in the 80's at countless meetings. After being told so many times that I was being disruptive & negative, I gave up...

    It's Just a Lake!

    Was fantastic in the 70's....Had the best omelette I ever had one morning outside with 2 hotties. Can't remember the name of the place though. It is a shame what has happened to the Denver area. I've sailed on Dillon Lake, got fuked up at the ODI (Old Dillon Inn also known as the Overdose...

    Windoze 10 upgrade??

    I do the same as Battlecheese. If all else fails, order the parts from NewEgg to build your own custom PC. YOU choose the parts (read reviews for each part). Building a desktop PC is easy, and starts out totally clean. My first build is an XP that still rocks almost 9 years later. No MS...

    Windoze 10 upgrade??

    I have never ever claimed to be a 'puter guru. Ever. I copied/pasted ONE item. I rarely "clickbait" whatever that means. I agree that end users are usually idiots as far as computer sciences go. But that is not why they bought their PCs....to learn to launch scripts. And excuse me for my...
