28298 <*Looks up at the recent conversation*> Guys, just let him get it out of his system. We may not be able to change the past, but if we don't get our regrets expulsed from our nerves, they tend to eat at us until they are. :( ~D. V. "Someone who knows..." Devnull

Glad to see you guys/ladies back up and running once again. :thumbsup: I hope all of you can catch whoever caused the DDoS and put them in jail for a very long time. :angry: ~D. V. "I missed these forums and their community!" Devnull

Fired from Japan's NPA for using a 'Death Note' to stop a murderer. <_< ~D. V. "N's gonna stop you!" Devnull

Granted, but what you come up with can't be put in a book, even one that would be found in a Barnes&Noble. :( I wish this world was a hell of a lot less corrupt, simply because it is ruining the ability to enjoy life. :angry: ~D. V. "And it depresses me..." Devnull

NOT him ... BTW, I sense high-speed hijinks happening here! :P Anywho... @Star., you hiding anywhere? :( ~D. V. "Noticing a lack of the feminine touch..." Devnull

I hope this doesn't take 28305 days to finish... I would hate to leave finishing this to our children. :boohoo: ~D. V. "Would be a curse..." Devnull

Banned because I shall now annoy with a spammage of emotes! :twss: :P :XD: :-k :mellow: :( :o |^_^| :twisted: :ugeek: Double-banned for making me start the next page by accident! ( ;) :D ) ~D. V. "Yeah, that'll do." Devnull

Banned because I walked in, only to end up doing a *facedesk* before 9 AM PDT. :wall: ~D. V. "Probably more like *face-'time wall'*, TBH..." Devnull

32*2*13*112 = 28314 :o ~D. V. "The near-perfect breakdown?" Devnull

Welcome to the Tip.It (aka: Rune Tips) Community. Please enjoy your stay, watch out for the lunatics, and come play in the Forum Games! Yes, of course, don't forget to check the rest of things out... LOL! :lol: ~Mr. D. V. "Maybe a lunatic just greeted you?" Devnull

Banned because this has been a weird day. :mellow: Double-banned because BAN-KAI!!! ~D. V. "Enjoy the reference, see you later..." Devnull

28323 Follow your heart/gut/feelings/instinct/whatever-you-wanna-call-it... I honestly can't make that choice/decision for you. :( ~D. V. "Ball's in your court, man... Sorry." Devnull

LOL... I can just see it now... Zero by the year 6150. :P [spoiler=In the Year 6150]5120 Zero by 7500? Anyone? :( I don't think we even have that many active users? :blink: 28328 ~D. V. "It's gonna be a long count, isn't it?" Devnull

Pardon my using that against you, but... Banned for chasing too many people away! :P ~D. V. "Just being silly..." Devnull

Blaze Nope. Someone from the ancient past. <*whacks Blaze*> WRONG ANSWER! You're Blaze, so you should have answered that you're here! :shame: Sorry but I, D. V. Devnull ≠ Blaze. :( How about... @QueenValerie? :huh: ~D. V. "Catching the loose ends..." Devnull

Uhm, you don't need an unlimited budget either, and neither did I and my parents. Heck, you might need about $200 maximum, honest! Look at CyberPower's GreenPower UPS @ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102070 to see an example of what I mean. Further, replacement batteries cost a mere fraction of the price of a full unit. Since you only have to replace batteries like once-in-a-blue-moon (3-5 years, or whenever your UPS tells you it's time) for frequency, there isn't much of an issue in that department either. ;) To give you a rough idea, we got a Belkin UPS years ago for less than $100, and were upgraded at least once because of a failed unit. Even further, prices stayed low enough to afford a second unit (slightly more powerful) later on because costs stayed low, and we understood the bonuses of not having sudden data loss. Of course, back then, I also had to deal with younger siblings (who didn't understand what they were doing) that accidentally hit the extension line switch that fed power to the computer as well. :wacko: Sometimes true, sometimes not... I've actually seen Windows make the ugly mistake of starting up like nothing happened, and on systems here at home as well. :( You're lucky. I'm surprised you haven't had fried hardware yet. Heck, I'll point you to Newegg's Power Protection toplevel @ http://www.newegg.com/Power-Protection/Category/ID-314, so you can find something appropriate to you. :D ~D. V. "Power protection via UPS is not that costly!" Devnull

It ain't paranoid if your swap file is on the same physical disk as your OS. It ain't paranoid if you lack an UPS unit to help you keep from crashing. So, if your swap file is on the same physical disk as your OS happens to be AND you lack an UPS unit, it's definitely NOT paranoid to be scanning disks after a power failure. This goes double for the Surface Scan section of the scanning tests, because all it takes is the head stopping the wrong way just once to corrupt something and/or kill your drives. :( Heck, about the only bother caused by having an UPS unit is the need to change its' batteries once about every 3-5 years or so. But the tradeoff in non-damaged equipment is priceless in data protected. Good UPS units even save you from brownout and power spike situations! :D ~D. V. "I've lived through these and enjoy being safe behind an UPS unit." Devnull

28340 -- New Page for all of you. :D ~D. V. "Enjoy." Devnull

<*Looks up at a 34-line-break burst*> :wacko: Pardon my getting serious here, but you're banned for having too many line breaks between major sections of text. There should be a maximum of 4 line breaks between sections, and anything more is report-to-a-mod-worthy. :shame: ~D. V. "You might want to fix that before somebody reports you..." Devnull (p.s.: Don't forget to make an Edit Note after you fix it, okay?)

And this, folks, is why I recommend an UPS unit... At least for your desktop configuration, and any external devices that need external power on your laptop. It runs the need to do disk scans down to near-zero, simply because you'll normally be able to shut the system down properly FIRST, and before you're out of power for your computer!!! :ugeek: ~D. V. "Not all drives are SSDs!" Devnull

Banned because I feel like a wall of text fell out of the sky on my head. :blink: ~D. V. "Unfortunately, I set it off!" Devnull

Banned because you probably need to go to http://www.youtube.com/my_history and "Clear Your Entire Viewing History". It's one of the few things you can do without having a YouTube Account. ;) Personally, I wish YouTube would stop trying to recommend things to unregistered users. It just doesn't work out right. <_< ~D. V. "Knowing a little grief..." Devnull
