I tagged it. What more help could you possibly need?

Could you add the following tags pls?

IT KITCHEN AND GRILL RECIPE

I had no idea those were pre-existing tags, lol.

Hehe, looks like we're gourmet IT pros: Everything from smoked eggs to fried garbage balls included 😛

Thanks for tagging 😉

@StrongBad said in Recipe: Grilled sangria:

Now that sounds good.

oh yes

N.B.: If using dried beans with this recipe, increase cooking time to 5-6 hours.

@RojoLoco

Sounds great, but won't you need a firearms license for this?

@BBigford said in Torch malware / browser?:

If we're talking about the same Torch, it's not malware. It has a torrent client embedded in it so that might be throwing up a flag.

Not to say it might be a phishing variant, or be compromised in another way. But the browser itself is fine (based on Chrome). Used it for a couple years before moving on.

I saw that there is a split on whether or not it is technically "malware", but that's not as much my concern. I just need to be able to positively tell the customer that it didn't come from our side (and I'm feeling pretty confident in that it did not).

And to my eyes, @BBigford, its behavior absolutely qualifies it as malware. Too much sneaky stuff going on when you use it, pop up ads all over the place, the use of the word "toolbar", etc, but I digress.

I buy our old computers and nuke/pave them back to factory and donate them to the local women's charity (just happened to be the closest one to my house).

edit: I don't ask for a tax receipt or anything, though maybe I'll inquire next time.

@RojoLoco that's a very long drive for me, but be sure to have a blast up there.

Yeah just exclude the whole folder that they do their dev work in and that should take care of it.

@BRRABill I worked as a technician at a Ubreakifix repair shop for a short time.

Would that have been maybe an iPhone 4S, where you had to go in through the back cover and take almost everything apart to get at that screen?

From the iPhone 5 forward, the screens got pretty easy to change out pretty quickly after seeing a couple, but it's also definitely an adjustment starting to work with parts and screws that are 10% of the usual size. Once in a while, something like a flex cable could just seem determined to not stay in one piece.

When receiving a bad part means having to wait for another order rather than just going back to the shelf to look for a good one, that's another disincentive for diy too.

Yeah, I had done a few 3Gs, and it was easy. Then the 4 or 4S ... it involved around 30+ screws. It was ridiculous.

As much as I typically help anyone who asks for computer help (I know, I know) for phones and tablets I send them to the mall.

Awesome! Yeah too far away and have gigs of our own here 🙂

Here are some ideas if you run out :trollface:
Domino's Pizza $suburb. May I start with your phone number?
 
ugh, it's about time you picked up! I've been on hold for ages! What the hell is going on?
 
$suburb Circumcisions. You flop it, we chop it.

LOL, I'm pro-Catalona too.

Sounds great!
