Um the Donald needs to go. I'm kind a right wing nut, but trump is batshit crazy. He is a racist ethnocentric wind bag. If he gets the Republican party nomination I'll vote for Hillary Clinton. She may be a self serving liar. Who will do anything for power, but she is at least predictable.
I am constantly setting up routers as part of my job. Plus I use a wireless mouse so there is one usb. Having another for drives is a must. That said I use a 15 ultrabook that does all that and still manages to not weigh a ton.
I am the manager of a computer repair shop in that capacity hdd's are the most common hardware failure. Most repairs are software problems. Almost every Computer I see I my shop has conduit, pc optimizer, or other crap on it. But number 2 issue is failed hard drive. And nobbody has backups.
My wife and I are avid campers, during the warmer months. Our bikes are how we get around the campgrounds. But during the winter months they don't leave the garage.
I am voting against all incumbents. Being from central Illinois my vote is out weighed by Chicago anyway except for in my local elections. Where the only one I really care about is sheriff. That is only because I'm friends with one of the candidates.
I manage a computer repair shop. I teach my guys that discretion is paramount. First of all I'd they snoop on customer files they get fired. Second if the do see something they aren't to discuss it. Finally if they stumble on something criminal (like kiddy porn) they report it to me and I deal with it. In the case of the aforementioned I'll call the cops. But I make the decision and the responsibility.
I manage a local computer repair shop, until recently we installed Firefox by default with operating system reinstall 's. Now we have moved to recommending chrome mainly be many of our user are having issues with sites like pogo working on Firefox.
I think this is a nail in a fast closing coffin for Mozilla, users want things to just work and Firefox no longer does. But chrome never seems to fail.
I personally moved to Mint because of Unity, but now have an added reason to stick with my delicious and refreshing flavor of Linux. Plus green is my favorite color!
