The ultimate thread! (possible NSFW) (#30)

Sounds like some fun computer switcherooing.

I'm glad he did though. For the price I'm getting it with all the farkle it comes with, I'm doing pretty good, the long-distance notwithstanding.

Having the extended TUT network with someone who was somewhat close and willing to help out, as well as some other fortunate circumstances on the seller's side of things conspired to make the deal work out slicker than greased owl shit.

It happened way faster than I anticipated, too. Honestly, I was not expecting it to pop so soon. I was hunkering down and preparing to wait months to find the right bike in the right place at the right time.

I just called you a n00b!

that's odd....

Mine happened much faster than anticipated too. I owned the bike about three days after I started that thread.

Fucking AppleTalk™ It has a reputation for this kind of crap - it's historically a very inefficient network protocol with a bunch of bullshit overhead that it does in the background. I suspect there is a memory leak somewhere in the code or something, but mostly it just doesn't scale well. If you have file sharing on and have a couple thousand files shared it bogs things down big time. It's very difficult to track down because it's intermittent and it doesn't show up as a separate process. I'm going to shut down file sharing on every machine and just leave printer sharing on.

It might be verboten in the Flea Market. In the chat forum (Jo Momma) it's a free for all, but I don't go in there much at all. I don't think anyone will notice though in that thread. It's not exactly a high traffic thread.
