  1. There is a video taken from an alternate angle here: Boeing wyl (that white stuff on the runway looks like foam)
  2. where is a nissan frontier when you need it? Nissan Frontier: Landing Gear - YouTube Top marks to that pilot for that landing (I'm surprised the nose was kept up that long and at the lack of sparks)
  3. If it uses the DAAP protocol (like most other NAS drives), then probably not. If you want to try it, set up a ubuntu virtual machine (a live session should do) then install either mt-daapd/firefly media server or forked-daapd (most nas systems I've seen use mt-daapd/firefly)
  4. might not work, but have you tried using ICS (internet connection sharing) to connect the xbox to the internet? Xbox.com | Connect to Xbox Live - Windows ICS Connection for Xbox 360
  5. It's been like that for months (since June/July I think). I seem to remember people saying you could change your password using the qriocity account management system. I'm not sure if creating accounts works though. https://account.qriocity.com/pc/reg/account/create-account!input.action?request_locale=en_GB (if this link doesn't work, just go to Sony Entertainment Network and try the account registration there. Also there was a firmware update recently which you will need to install before accessing the PSN.
  6. I've just tried this on a server 2008 machine and it worked for me: Thanks to DThornton123 from this page . However the method can be bypassed fairly easily though, so I'd think of this as a temporary solution. It will block both the http and secure sites for facebook (as if you set the destination IP as 127.0.0.1 (localhost), the machine will try to connect to it self and present the user with a site not found error or a 404 page if the machine has a web server installed) for all computers that use that DNS server to perform lookups.
  7. You could also block facebook.com by modifying the DNS records on your server (eg adding an A record which points facebook.com to 127.0.0.1). As far as I know, only the commercial versions of smoothwall can intercept/block HTTPS.
  8. The iPhone configuration utility is a handy program as it allows you to use a computer to input the key and other settings into a profile (handy if you have a long/complex password) which you can then add to any ipod touch/iphone (and probably the ipad as well)
  9. Did you burn the ISO on a slow speed? I find that burning OS ISOs on a higher speed can lead to all kinds of weird and wonderful errors from missing files to installs hanging.
  10. I think it's pretty well hidden in the host configuration pages. edit - seems as though it's under Configuration > Licensed features on 4.1. I'd imagine that it's similar on 5.0 http://communities.vmware.com/message/1139604 Just had a look on my ESXi 4.1 server and in the client, you need to click Inventory, then the hostname/IP of the ESXi/Vsphere server (on the left side) > configuration > licensed features > edit (top right of screen)
  11. You might want to mark this as NSFW due to some of the language used. Good video though!
  12. Although not released yet, OpenMediaVault looks promising and is based on my preferred Linux distro, Debian. I think OMV was created by one of the freenas devs. however my microserver currently runs VMware ESXi (4.1, haven't got around to upgrading to 5.0 yet) so that I can use it to test out stuff.
  13. USB Secret - Imgur Found on Reddit [Comment thread may have NSFW language]: USB Thumb-drive Secret : pics
  14. That reminds me of this from the V8 supercars Canberra race in 2001: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGNB3Vy6YoI
  15. look at the tags: touchpad, Obsolete Brick, kfc, out of stock, hp, touchpad, hp touchpad, tablet, Slate, bargain, cheap tablet, united rule, apple, rules, expensive digital photoframe edit - seems the tags have been cleaned up now
  16. Or as a member on another forum put it: There's no need to hire a botnet to DDOS a website, just tell people that they have stock of HP touchpads.
  17. Had this sent to me this morning: [ATTACH=CONFIG]11041[/ATTACH]

  18. The factory restore seems to have done the trick for now. Thanks for all the responses
  19. I've just done that, but still no luck though. Thanks for the suggestion. Next step is a factory reset. Lets hope that works.
  20. Is the when you hit forget in the connection properties? If it is, then I've already tried that without success. Thanks for the reply.
  21. I've got a strange issue with my HTC wildfire (standard HTC 2.2.1 f/w) where it will try to connect to my home network, but fails. It has worked fine up until now, but now it just gets it self stuck in a loop (connecting to network > authenticating to network > obtaining IP from network > disconnected). All other devices work fine (ipods, laptops and games consoles). I have tried two different brands of router/WAPs (netgear dg834gv5 and some ancient belkin) with varying levels of security from unsecured networks to WPA and WPA/WPA2 secured networks. Wifi channels have been changed without success. I've even reset the spare DG834Gv5 i have to it's default settings without any luck. Is there anything else I can try before sending it for repair? Thanks for reading c_e
  22. [ATTACH=CONFIG]10881[/ATTACH] No pictures of 403 though, as it's forbidden
  23. There was a good one a few years ago (a B747? with a wing missing) on finals to 18R at Schipol a few years ago, but the maps have been updated since and it's no longer there. Another one: Google Maps
  24. Did think of the Goa mix as well, but forgot to add it to the post Sasha's global underground CDs are good albums for the summer (GU013 more so than GU009) The two global underground CDs mentioned above can easily be found on amazon marketplace (no digital downloads though apart from later GU releases IIRC)
