    Anybody Out There Using Linux

    in The Vape Lounge - Off Topic Chat

    Posted

    Funny - I've resisted that for so long but once my Dell mini 10V comes in a week, I'll probably put Ubuntu on it along with XP, Windows 7 and Snow Leopard. Speaking of Snow Leopard, I see you have an AMD processor, Snow Leopard supports Intel processors but I thought I saw some hacks for AMD out there in the Ether. Snow Leopard is sold as an upgrade for $29 at any Apple store, $5 cheaper online. I won't get into the ethics of it, there are arguments for and against loading it on a non-Mac machine. I had it up on a Gateway mini, but returned it because the 10V runs SL great right out of the box.

    So after all that, my answer is no...sorry. LOL

    http://www.ubuntu.com/

    Also remember that you can still work with word, excel, etc. without paying MS a dime.

    Also funny (not) is my main home machine went down on me two weeks ago. Working with a backup to try and recover my 2 TB raid 5 array. I have four new 1.5 TB drive already here, waiting on my Dell server and will have it running Free NAS off a thumb drive. This way I won't be motherboard dependent. Of course my computer couldn't wait another couple of weeks to crash because then I would have moved my entire array over. Once I get the array backed up with some pretty slick software from DiskInternls, I'll attempt to find out what happened to my machine.

    i thought this would be so cool id have somthing to talk to hubby about then i started reading and

    I mean this in the kindest way but I need a geek translator lol

    Really Hard Draw On A 901?!

    in Troubleshooting & Technical Issues

    Posted · Edited by Gazoo

    well the 901 does tend to have a harder draw then say a 510 due to only having one hole but this should help. Put your lip on the hole on the side of the atty like it is a flute and suck thru it just once or twice if the atty is working you will be able to draw a good amount of vapor this way if not take it off the batt and remove the cart put a napkin over both ends and blow throw the same (side) hole. i hope that works for you these are things i do with my 901 all the time some times dust or stuff from your purse or whatever can enter that one hole and mess it all up.

    Tiger

    All that being said, heres MY point. If Tiger Woods had used his wood inappropriatly, ON the back 9, behind his caddys back, then I say put it on EVERY front page, website, and milk carton in the world. That tarnishes the sport, as well as the man. BUT, this is a personal issue, that does NOT belong in the media. This is between Mr and Mrs Woods. Tiger has already been tried and found guilty by the media, and now doesnt stand a CHANCE with his wife. I'll play the devils advocate here, IF Tiger is innocent and has NOT been unfaithful to her, there is NO way that women can walk into ANY store without seeing it plastered on every tabloid, she cant change a channel without seeing the sound bites, she cant HELP but think the man is a low rent scum sucking ameoba. On the other side of the coin, lets say he DID commit adultery. Who cares. Why should we care. Its between them. All the media has done is taken a MASTER, a GIANT in the arena, and driven him to his knees. The man can no longer put a ball in the ball washer without THIS becoming the topic of the announcers. In my opinion, this is sad, and wrong. What do you guys think ?

    I am also no fan of golf. However i am a fan of marriage being a sacred union and as the public we are not allowing her the privacy to handle this in her way. she may have known all along but either way it I agree its THIER marriage.

    Wireless Passthrough

    in General Vaping Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Gazoo

    1) Why not a wireless passthrough?

    I think the point of it being a passthrough is that the power passes through a cable otherwise it would be a mod. like the spade is a wireless

    2) What's the carrying case that is preferred?
    I use an old dollar store first aid kit box its plastic

    3) Where do you put your ecig when not vaping? A stand? A clean ash tray?

    the pocket god gave me mostly
    4) How do you mark your various flavors in the carts so you know which is which?
    i can usually tell by liquid color although hubby direct drips so he changes attys and has them in different places with the liquid next to them

    New Battery, New Attomizer

    in New Vapers Forum

    Posted · Edited by Gazoo

    Sometimes we're too friendly and the original question gets lost in the welcomes and introductions. If you had an atomizer that was new and it got mixed up with some that were used and you want to be able to tell the difference between the new and the used. Well #1 don't mix them in the future and that will avoid the problem, I am very care full not to open any packages from suppliers while I have other components on my desk. I have a shelf where everything is neat and all lined up and categorized, but maybe I'm a little OCD. I always find a way to mark my batteries and atomizers so I can tell which ones they are. I use a sharpie permanent marking pen on the things that will accept the ink. Atomizers are made from stainless steel and are usually painted and the sharpie won't mark on them, so I tale my pocket knife and very carefully and very small etch a roman numeral in the paint in a inconspicuous spot so I can tell them apart.

    "a little OCD" SmokingMan thats a lot of OCD. ok sorry to be off topic but. If they both work who cares which is new i like to order on time chrome one time pink then one time black, on the 901 the chrome will be going out while the black starts moving into rotation

    Protocol For New Atty

    in New Vapers Forum

    Posted · Edited by Gazoo

    When you refill a cartridge...are you actually refilling it or the atomizer?? I have only been using my ecig for about a month and I've been putting the drops on the cotton inside the filter looking part of the cig. I have not been putting the drops into the atomizer itself. I was reading these forums and it sounds like people are putting the drops into the atomizer and NOT onto the cotton part inside the filter. I just tried putting drops on the atomizer and I gotta say it made a huge difference. But, have I been doing it totally wrong all this time?? (I hope this makes sense to someone, lol)

    Putting the drops on they atty is "dripping" putting the drops on the cotton or "cart" is "refilling" and "dipping" can only be done with certain model attys (anyone please correct me if im wrong) the bridge (little metal part inside) of the atty sticks out and you "dip" it in a little puddle of liquid. hope that helps

    fyi i think there is a glossary somewhere on the forum maybe this should be added
