They are both on casters, so it's dead simple. I never used the chemical and odor filter on the IQAir, mostly because I don't smoke and nor do my neighbors, but I found the standard filter itself to be very efficient at filtering odors, notably diapers (yay) and scented candles (boo). Rooms with the filters smell "sweeter" than those without. It's very pleasant.

Lost by one point. Looks like the season has started for Tyler.

He threw for precisely one touchdown, but it was to the Ravens. Meanwhile, Demaryius Thomas would like to know when the fuck you are going to pull it together over there.

All my players are still employed, we're off to a good start.

DAS: Drobo or Something Else?
Sherwood replied to Dreadhead's topic in GoRedwings19's Computer Help Hotline
I definitely am. Tried it on a whim when I was away from my server for a few months and needed to set up a mobile workflow on a laptop. When I got back to my server it replaced my running Sickbeard installation. It handles unexpected things (nuked episodes, "Out of your server's retention"? problems, etc.) and has a very full-featured renaming and organization system. Plus I enjoy Calendar view, showing me what's upcoming and missed very intuitively. -

Complex Folder Deletion program?
Sherwood replied to Sherwood's topic in GoRedwings19's Computer Help Hotline
That could work. Time to dust off some expressions. -
Friends, I recently had JRiver reorganize my music folder by ARTST\ALBUM\TRACK. My old scheme was ARTIST - ALBUM\TRACK. I like the new one better from an aesthetic point of view, and because I enjoy folders. The problem is, now I have a shit ton of folders labelled something like "Bjork - Vespertine" that contain nothing except .log and .cue files, and perhaps some .jpg art files or liner notes. I prefer to embed that stuff in the track, so I don't need the extra files. I'd love to have a program that I could tell to delete any folder that did not contain (or whose subfolder did not contain) a music file. Does something like that exist?

Kicker keeper is out, thanks Jeff!

You know your business better than I, but it seems like frequently sending a WOL packet is less trouble than periodically backing up your entire NAS to a non-redundant drive for the sake of backblaze. -
Good question! I'm not spoilt for choice with a keeper from Dinny's team, so I'm excited to hear how it's shaking out. Looks like Keeper Kicker.

That opens up your options. Smallnetbuilder does a good "Best NAS" chart that's easily refined corresponding to your preferences. -
Got the email, team is set up. Strong chance I'll be on autodraft, given that it occurs at 3AM here in Istanbul, but I'll do my level best. Football season will entail many late night and early mornings, perhaps it's a good idea to start now.

Also interested in this topic, though I have little to add. I'd been looking at this unit, though largely because I'll be using mine as a Plex server, hooked up to a Mac Mini. IIRC, your ecosystem is erroneously devoid of macs, so the Thunderbolt is not a big draw. -
That looks more fun. How nerdy am I?

Can do, email sent. The Istanbul Kabobs are looking at a good season.

Posty, I lived in CO for 20+ years, 6 of them in Boulder. It's one of my favorite places in the world. Larry's tips are all excellent. Telluride is far as hell away, great town though it is. Dan also makes a good suggestion in Estes Park, though it's a scenic 1 hour drive from Boulder. Fort Collins is of little interest to me, but it was Boulder's rival school, and I never came around to its "merits". Also my in laws live there. Little love lost. Other great place to live would be Golden (home of Macro brewed beer). As far as vacationing goes, the sky is the limit. If I were planning a trip back over Thanksgiving I'd want to go to Crested Butte, Breckenridge, Vail, or Estes Park. Estes Park is actually where I chose to spend my last night in Colorado before I moved overseas, at the beautiful and famous Stanley Hotel.

Sounds like exactly where I stopped I finished Seveneves and Anathem and came back, though. Better that than make progress in Baroque...

I have a feeling the U.S. is about to get flooded with Greek demand for gyros, sammich. Sell high!

Heavens, too much plankton?

I used a handful when I lived in China. My favorite was either the BlueAir Classic (https://www.blueair.com/us/blueair-classic) or the IQ Air HealthPro Plus (http://www.amazon.com/IQ-HealthPro-Plus-Air-Purifier/dp/B002VXDCHW/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1440518798&sr=1-1&keywords=iqair) These both work exactly how you would imagine: pump a metric ton of air through a very good disposable filter as quietly as possible. They both work wonderfully, I owned both, but the Embassy bought a few hundred Blue Airs and filters were provided every month, so I sold my IQ Air. They are serious machines, but this is Head Case. I wager there is nothing you can throw at these that I did not experience in Beijing.

If you need another, I'm in.

I'm the only person I know who did not like it, but oh man did I not like it. The whole thing felt like he was reading through back issues of How to be Cool: For Dads! in the morning, then banging out a few dozen pages every night. I am not an MMO player any longer, but I once was, and none of it rang true. Just like Twilight fulfilled little girls' dream of some day falling in love with a sexy vampire, RPO fulfills boys' dreams of conquering the world and getting in shape by playing lots of video games. Snowcrash is delightful, absurd, and a real favorite. Stephenson has a gift that Cline does not have. That said, the MMO world Stephenson describes in Reamde is a little closer to what I think RPO could have been.

Crown prince of the Oud, Mr. Anouar Brahem. Conte Le'incrovable Amour. Absolutely mermerizing.
