    Get a newer SSD disk and reinstall. Yes, they call it bloatware for a reason I usually get the cheapest disk when configuring my laptop because I know I'll have to reinstall it anyway. The SSDs nowadays are pretty good and price has come down a lot. Only problem is that the license (product key) you get with the OEM version of Windows doesn't usually work on the retail version of Windows. Plus Win 7 puts stuff in bios too. If you use Hackintosh/Linux, then it doesn't matter.
  2. Nice Porsche. Here's my ride ... only I don't drive her in salt...
  3. Just knock down the wall and you won't have the problem anymore and you'll be able to store even more ammo!!

    Actually IBM manufactured their Laptops with Lenovo for quite some time before Lenovo finally bought the unit out. I didn't really see a decrease in quality since Lenovo took over. Been reading on different forums that people complain about them being more flimsy now but I disagree. The very first "brick" IBMs from 12+ years ago were rock solid, yes. But everything after that had issues. I remember getting my first Thinkpad 570. The screen on that thing would lose contact and would produce random garbage until you touched it in a sweet spot in the back. Every other Thinkpad I owned - case cracked. I bought a brand new X201 few months ago and the case is already chipped in one spot The good part about both corporate Lenovo's (Thinkpads) and Dells is that ebay is plastered with off-lease laptops and parts from same so prices are generally very very good.
  5. Yes, they should be allowed to carry under one condition - they should not be members or supporters of teachers union.

    Dell has great LCDs and I'd probably get a desktop PC if I decided not to build one just because they're dirt cheap with all the coupons. For laptops I exclusively buy Lenovo (formerly IBM). They have their issues too (case likes to crack) but so far I've gone through 6 or 7 of them over the past 12 years and overall I love them. The service stuff I do myself because dealing with customer service is a PITA and shipping sometimes costs more than buying parts yourself. If you got a lemon (bad main board or screen), then I assume you'd have to ship the whole unit back but if it's out of warrenty, Ebay and then other resellers may be a better option for replacement parts.
  7. Most of the gun loving crowd I know say: "When seconds matter, police are only minutes away." In other words, pack some heat or it may be too late. I don't even want to know how it's going to get after all the consolidations and layoffs here in NJ. http://www.courierpostonline.com/article/20110117/NEWS01/110117065/Camden-police-layoffs-begin-officers-turning-in-badges-guns
  8. Have you guys read 1984? It's similar in our society, ignorance is strength, freedom is slavery, war is peace (debt is money etc etc). That's why we don't punish criminals. Because what's normal, we don't pursue anymore.
  9. Sometimes it's great, sometimes it sucks, which is probably normal for any relationship. Everybody's different and thus the arguments. All I can say is (from 2nd hand experience) the longer one waits, the more they become set in their ways and not willing to make compromises and ultimately get married. I got married early and had kids early because I wanted to a| have fun with them while I'm still young b| be able to understand them when they get into puberty etc. I remember when I was a kid, some of my friends parents could have been my grandparents and I said no f-ing way am I going to have my kids when I'm 50 Got two, they're great and probably the main reason why I don't quit my job and move to a deserted island With that said, 10 years and counting...
  10. I went to NJFG yesterday and didn't like the experience. First negative was the lack of parking space. I guess Rahway doesn't believe in cleaning snow and since both spots in front of the store were taken I had to park in one of the side streets which was almost completely snow covered. Second, the old guy that was helping me didn't seem to know anything (and didn't even listen to what I had to say). I was interested in an Armalite AR-10 and asked a few questions (since I'm pretty much a newb) and he knew less than me (or just didn't bother listening to me). What a waste of 2 hours of my life. Some of the younger guys seemed to have a much better attitude, I heard them speak to other customers... The prices seemed too high too, at least for the stuff I looked at. Won't be going back anytime soon.

    Hi folks, new guy from Princeton area. Recently got my FID (after about a month of waiting) and was trying to figure out which rifles are legal in NJ and which ones aren't and that's how I came across this site (google and more google). Lots of good info but too much of it and not enough time I'm basically looking for some semi-autos, an M4 type 5.56 and a 308/7.62 (ideally it would be an armalite ar10 sass but it seems that one is too illegal, and expensive, to even consider ). Will probably consider a bolt action 308 too (ideally a remington m24 but because of price a lookalike 700 may do just fine ) Hope to meet some of you going forward. With how the economy is going I may need to get to know as many of you as possible
  13. New guy here, I have several Kifaru packs and highly recommend them. They're as good as Maxpedition if not better (personal bias ). I carry E&E to work every day, Molle Express for day trips and MMR for multi-day trips. https://kifaru.net/militarypacks.htm
