It's 2013. Do people still use dial-up?

Probably not that many. Nowadays that mostly means to be mindful of users using mobile devices and those who have data limits. It wouldn't be a good idea to post a massive image with a file size of 10MB, for example.

It's 2013. Do people still use dial-up?

Yes of course, some people who live in the country that doesn't have cable or dsl setup in the area yet. A friend of mine lives in the country and use dial-up for their internet surfing.. so they use internet in small usages depending on their phone plan until cable/DSL finally arrive in their town.

I lived on the farm many years ago, that we didn't have a water line so we used the water well for kitchen, bathroom, etc. We used to have the water trucks deliver water to us. Now, they have the water line installed in that area.

My latest addition: Logitech G700 gaming mouse. I love it so far!

Anyone with a data-limited plan should turn off image downloading if they are worried about running over. Or simply not go to a thread that is basically ALL IMAGES.

or use Wi-Fi to do it

You should bring it over so i can hold it!

I'm thinking about replacing my razer naga epic. I never use the damn buttons. I have zero problems with it though other than the horrible and annoying razer software.

But i think a mouse like this would better serve me :D

let me touch it, just for a little, please.

where I got it they had a killer deal on it..... but it's 10$ more now so I had good timing LOL.

I hurridly snapped this tonight so the quality is pretty meh. I will try to remember to take a few shots tomorrow to give a better idea. I'll get inside my PC as well.

There are three computers in the shot, but only one is connected to the screens.

The one in the far left (Silver Cosmos) is my server, not too far from that is my rig (Antec Eleven Hundred), and tucked under my desk is some work machine used for work at home.

I need to find something to do with that SSD that has been sitting on my desk for a few weeks now...

You can give me the SSD. I want one dedicated to my VMs.

I was thinking of using it as a Linux boot disk and I could do Linux on that SSD and have Windows 7 on my current SSDs. I'll have to figure it out though. It originally was in my laptop, but I sold that and upgraded to a newer laptop. In that newer laptop I opted for a mSATA SSD with caching instead of a full blown SSD. I then put that SSD into my wife's computer, which has no SSD, and she gave it back to me and told me to just leave her with a HDD based setup.

I know... How could anyone turn down and SSD...

The cloning feature of Hasleo Backup Suite can help you migrate Windows to another disk, or easily upgrade a disk to an SSD or a larger capacity disk. System Backup & Restore / Disk/Partition Backup & Restore Backup Windows operating system and boot-related partitions, including user settings, drivers and applications installed in these partitions, which ensures that you can quickly restore your Windows operating system once it crashes. Viruses, power failure, or other unknown reasons may cause data loss, so it is a good habit to regularly back up the drive that stores important files, you can at least recover lost files from the backup image files in the event of a disaster.

File Backup & Restore Back up specified files(folders) instead of the entire drive to another location to protect your data, so you can quickly restore files(folders) from the backup image files when needed. Incremental/Differential/Full Backup Different backup modes are supported, you can flexibly choose data protection schemes, which can improve backup performance and save storage space while ensuring data security. Delta Restore Delta restore uses advanced delta detection technology to check the changed blocks on the destination drive and restore only the changed blocks, so it has a faster restore speed than the traditional full restore.

    • I looked into a few echo devices to find they were riddled with adverts over time. No thanks ill stick to my homeassistant, smart plugs, smart bulbs and cameras that don't cost me a monthly fee and are cheaper to buy. No adverts also.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.180 is out.
    • Putin or Farage had nothing to do with me voting out. I did so because I got fed up of the E.U telling us what we could and could not do. Fed up with our country being run by a load of unelected Europrats. We never joined the E.U in the first place.
