Computer Rigs / Making internal drives work externally
« on: December 02, 2009, 09:59:49 AM »
So I have a few internal hard drives that I don't have room for in my computer and I'm looking for a reliable way to make them work externally.  I've seen a few things on newegg.com that look promising, but I figured I would ask around here to get some definitive answers.  Any advice is appreciated!  Oh and I'm running a PC with Windows Vista (yeah it sucks I know, I hope to upgrade to 7 next year) with both USB and Firewire.  Thanks!

Off Topic / Barcode
« on: October 07, 2009, 06:23:49 AM »
So google changed its logo to a barcode today in celebration of the anniversary of the 1st barcode patent.  For all you geeks out there who (like me) like to read about the history of things, here's some links:

For some reason, thinking of barcodes has led me to think about the possibility (and probablility) of the institution of barcode-like tattoos or implants as identification (its happened before so its not a stretch of the imagination to think that it wouldn't happen again, this time with more sophisticated technology).  Minority Report might not have been the greatest movie, but it creeped me out to see the eye scanner devices utilized to track the populace.  Anyone interested in reading/watching more about the potential downward spiral our civilization is headed for might want to check out the following links for dystopian literature and movies (Oh no, the new girl is a psycho lol... )

Hey all, I'm j.kitty and as you may have surmised, I'm new here!  I've played UO off and on since 1999 (though I didn't have my own account until 2004).  I started on Chessy and recently expanded to LS, Cats and GL with my pvp guild.  Since the new expansion, I've been focusing my three accounts on resource gathering and training skills (damn imbuing is giving me migraines and nightmares and I'm STILL not 120!!).  Hmm.. my friends would probably say I'm a trammy at heart because I like to design and deco houses, but I also love getting out there and kicking ass on my archer and necro mage (soon to be nox weave mage).  There's really never enough time in the day to accomplish everything in UO that I sit down to do (mainly because I'm easily distrac...oooh shiney!!).  Ultimately I'm here because UOMaddog said I should register (I think he's tired of my pestering icq's about scripts  ;) ).  I've done a little bit of scripting, mainly modding existing scripts to add new item id's to increase functionality. 

Anyway, that's my intro... now would someone please update craftinfo.txt so I can get back to doing bods again? *SOBS* hehe  :D
