Re: Google Pixel and Pixel XL Phones
I went to the store to play with it the guy told me I'm out of my mind to switch from an S7.Seriously? Out of your mind? If he would have said maybe he prefers the s7 over the Pixel even though both are great I could take him seriously. But with that extreme comment I'd be surprised if he actually even used it for more than a few minutes. December 22, 2016, 06:56:24 PM |

Re: Excel Problem
You must set the cell format to text before pasting in. Otherwise, by default, excel will read it as a number. And by default, excel can only handle 15 digits (see: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/269370) If you change it to text after the fact, the digits after the 15th will be 0's and you'll lose them for good. If you change it before the fact, it'll store them as text and keep them. Note that on text formatting, you cannot make equations from the contents of that cell (maybe adding to cc #'s together will get you the next Powerball #'s ![]() December 28, 2016, 08:50:52 AM |

Re: Computer Troubleshooting/Help Master Thread
I have a lenovo laptop and the mouse wasn't working. My husband called tech support but the number that first came up on google was a fake number. After they used gotoassist to login to our laptop and started playing around, my husband started getting a feeling they weren't legit and hung up. How can I make sure they didn't do anything to my laptop, steal my logins, or who knows what else?!No way to be 100% sure unfortunately. You can do some virus scans, avast and malwarebytes for starters January 08, 2017, 12:18:03 AM |

Re: truecrypt
Anyone know if this is still safe to use , I know they discontinued it but wondering if it can have any issues that would stop it from working..There were some vulnerabilities found with truecrypt after it was audited by cryptography experts. Better to use veracrypt instead which is a fork of truecrypt that is still actively maintained. The bugs that were found in truecrypt were fixed in veracrypt January 08, 2017, 12:32:02 PM |

Re: Laptop Deals Master Thread
bit the bullet on the miix 700.Portability is amazing. It's light as a feather (lighter than any laptop I've ever held), tablet detaches quite easily but keyboard also folds back like other 2 in 1s, either way automatic prompt to enter tablet mode. I find it to be a fully functioning laptop when in laptop mode and a fully functioning tablet in tablet mode. It's sturdier than I imagined in laptop mode. Lenovo WritIt is pretty much the only software I kept from Lenovo and it works pretty well. Pros: Portability Light as a feather Bundled with keyboard and pen Digital pen (vs. capacitive stylus) WriteIt Front and rear cameras Processing power seems up to par Windows 10 pro Cons: Trackpad - small, sometimes overly sensitive, other times non responsive Only 2 USB ports - one is the charger and there other is the pen holder.

Re: Useful Bookmarklets (browser bookmarks that do cool things)
I just created a bookmarklet that will make a DD link from any amazon item page, and format it with the title so you can paste it into a DDF post. Here's the code: Code: [Select] javascript:(function(){ As a reminder, to create a bookmarklet, right click on your bookmarks bar and click "Add page" (if you're in Chrome) or "New bookmark" (Firefox). For the Name, enter whatever you want (eg: Dan Amazon link), and for the URL/Location enter the code posted above. Maybe a mod can add it to this thread: When Posting Amazon Deals, Please Make A DD Link It might need a little tweaking, so let me know if you have a link that it doesn't work on.
