    California Teens Drug Parents to Get More Internet Time

    Don't forget that most of the posters on this forum are teenagers... I've made that mistake myself in the past. I don't fault the parents even if they seem a little too over-protective to suite my tastes because they're doing the job the best way they know how. Regardless what the parents...

    recover contacts?

    As mentioned always save your contacts to google and you won't have this problem in the future. There really isn't a good way to transfer the ones you have now to google if they are stored on the phone but at least you can save yourself some trouble next time. If the app above doesn't work try...

    Nexus 7 Bricked?

    I know this thread is supposed to be over, but sometimes you can get the settings menu to open up and either clear data on the launcher or clear defaults and use another one. I've had this problem before on phones... It's far from dead.

    Can anyone recommend a SMS reminder (Android)?

    Yep, handcent will do that. I used to have it enabled but somewhere along the line I stopped using the reminder. It's still there though.

    any COMPANIES selling used phones?

    Does it have to be a smartphone? I have a few old flip phones laying around. I'd send you one for free if you could use it.

    Include Sprint SIM when selling LTE phone?

    I didn't realize that... My htc evo 4g lte doesn't have one either. Which Sprint phones do?

    Include Sprint SIM when selling LTE phone?

    I've never seen a sprint phone with a sim card in it... Its possible the iphones have them as I've never played with one before, but typically sprint doesn't use them.

    Galaxy S2 Skyrocket rooting failture -- assistance required ASAP

    I'm not familiar with that particular device but samsungs are typically pretty easy to flash assuming you didn't totally brick it. Have you poked around on xda? http://forum.xda-developers.com/ That's pretty much where all of the android development starts.

    What is a good amp/receiver for B&W 601 series 3 speakers?

    I second the Denon if buying a good avr. They make good stuff that works and sounds great. If you're looking for a good deal on Behringer amps, the ep4000 was on sale at amazon this week for $267. They're great amps with power to spare. That's a smoking price on it too. If you're posting on...

    Kindle Fire + Best Buy = FU

    Look into it... If you get root, you can do whatever you want to do with it. Get rid of the crappy amazon launcher, add the google market and remove all of the ads. You'd end up with a nice little android tablet in the end. And you still have access to all of the kindle stuff when you want it...

    Kindle Fire + Best Buy = FU

    Usually people are happy when they get a newer version of a product they returned... Did you check to see if they figured out a rooting method for the new ones? I got my wife a kindle last year, rooted it xmas night and put a launcher and the market on it and she has loved it all year...

    Hit a Folding (Stanford) milestone? Post it here:

    Folding again for the first time in a few years. :)

    Small favor to ask...

    He could always just pay the $5 and join for a year too... I just looked and it's free for the rest of the week too. :) And then he could keep folding anyway to help the cause.

    Asus Taichi

    It's a very interesting and thought provoking design... My biggest disappointment with it is that only the outside screen is touch. I was ready to preorder one until I saw that. Win8 seems like it is easier to navigate with a touch screen...

    Two Caviar blacks or one SSD and one green storage drive

    I just had an 11 month old WD Black 1TB go bad on me and I replaced it with a 128gb Corsair SSD ($214) and a 1TB WD Green ($64) drive and it's working great for me. I was reluctant to go with anything smaller than 128gb for my system drive and they were a little too pricey for me last year so I...

    OS on SSD and...

    I keep anything that loads on startup on it and the slow loading apps that I use regularly like word, outlook, photoshop etc. Anything else that only gets run every once in a while or is considered "data" goes on the hdd.

    How serious is this...

    I can tell you I started getting the same error about 2 weeks ago and my system started freezing a few days ago. It's still running ok but if I shut it down sometimes I get a squeal when the drive first spins back up. Let's just say I've been backing up pictures this weekend and my new...

    This seems rather low PPD for an x4 Phenom

    I'm pretty sure the 6041 is one of the slow wu's too. I can run 5:45 a frame on a regular unit but fall to over 20 minutes a frame on a 6041. They take me two days to finish on my 720BE with the 4th core running. Seems like they need to redo the points system for them.

    Woops... I thought this thread was about trying to ramp up to compete with a team that's gaining on team 33 daily by giving away free stuff to its members. And I still would argue that some of the newbies would get caught up in the spirit of it and keep going even after the prizes are gone.

    Has anyone asked Kyle if he would sponsor a give away of some old test equipment for new members that say, fold for a month or reach 100k and have a drawing or something? I bet if 1000 people ran for a month that after the contest was over 500 of them would keep running. Surely this folding...

    Unlocking Phenom II X3 720

    Yep its normal. The name of my chip changed to the same and when you run an unlocked core you lose the ability to monitor the on-chip temp sensors for some reason. I just use pcprobe and keep an eye on the socket temp and don't worry about it. I didn't bump my vcore either. The board is...
