Solid

Last night I was using my wifi just fine on my phone but I turned my modem off for a little while. When I turned it on again, my phone couldnt detect my wifi anymore even though I was just using it less than 10 mins ago. My tablet can detect it and my aunt's phone can detect it but mine still cant. No I didnt change anything on my phone's settings and my phone can still detect other people's wifi like my neighbor's wifi but not mine. My wifi belongs to Globe and they said that theres nothing wrong with the wifi since other devices can detect it. The only network options on my phone is to either forget the wifi connection or modify it so I dont see how my phone's settings is whats wrong.

Hoping for some tech savvies to help me cos Im a complete noob at this.

I have a SAMSUNG SGH

I'm 22 and been unemployed for over a year now. Normally I would try getting another job after I left my previous job which was as a call center agent but certain things kept me from that.

1. My grandmother is weak with no one but me to watch over her especially as she is a cancer survivor and all the people in my house are senior citizens but me. She doesn't have other relatives.

2. I don't wanna work at a call center anymore. For me that job is for workaholics who can go with only 3-4 hours of sleep a day but I can't. Unfortunately call centers are what runs the economy in my area so looking for a job outside the call center industry is kinda hard and my stress builds up so fast and it was the reason I left.

3, Some of my friends have gone to other regions looking for jobs since there are better offers. Normally I would have gone as well but like my first problem, we don't have anyone to care for my grandma especially cos we don't have a helper at home.

My mother is pestering me to get another job but how can I when my options are rather limited and my home situation is hard too (my mom lives overseas). Its not that I don't want to work because I do and I need to.

The $300 is only estimated, its real price is between 275-280. I typed 300 to give some allowance.

I had a HUGE fight with my grandfather recently because of how very strict he treats our maid/housekeeper. It started cos our gas ran out and he was blaming her for it but its too long to explain. My grandmother (not his wife) tried to explain but he still doesn't believe it. I was worried that his constant yelling and swearing made our maid cry as it had happened before and she almost quit because of it. She stayed only because I and my grandma begged her (we are the only ones in our house). I asked them what my grandpa was yelling about in detail and in doing so talked badly about him behind his back. I assumed we were overheard because not long after he called all of us together to discuss what I was talking about. I didn't even try to explain myself because I was already angry. My grandpa is known in our area for constantly yelling (and swearing) and fighting and not caring who hears so me and grandmother's patience have been tested for so long. I answered him rudely and disrespectfully saying that it was I not him who pays the maid's salary but he cut me off and understood it to mean that the maid should listen only to me. Although I never got a chance to explain I meant to say that he doesn't have the right to treat her so strictly and that he ought to be thankful that she stayed. I even told him about how he made her cry. My uncle (his son) came as he knew what was going on and told me, grandma and the maid to go up and leave grandpa alone. My uncle then told me over the phone to let grandpa rage and flame all he wants and let it pass. I already knew that but my patience was at its limit but my uncle admitted that the old man was insecure about a lot of things (which I believe he brought upon himself) and was practically 'crazy'.

I'm have Christian beliefs and I've always been taught in the Bible to be slow to anger and wrath and to be patient and understanding. I know I made a lot of mistakes and was very disrespectful and offensive but my patience was at its end. Was my anger, but not my attitude cos I know it was wrong, justifiable? Was I right to yell and be very angry? I feel very guilty but I honestly don't think that I was completely at fault.

I know laptops aren't meant for gaming mainly due to cooling issues but what kind of laptop would be MEANT for gaming in terms of brand and specs? By gaming it can mean general gaming, online gaming, and emulator games of standard to high quality graphics.

My laptop has been fine and operational for a year and 8 months and at first there wasn't any problems but just more than a month ago I noticed something. Whenever I play games like counter strike or some online games early on my laptop never had a problem but now whenever I do play my screen crashes: it happens at random time but the screen goes blank in different colors whenever it happens.In one case, I tried using my video converter and while waiting I decided to watch a video in my laptop and the same thing happened so I concluded that it can't handle several programs at once because I can open my browser and surf the net, watch videos and use my MS Office. I got worried and sent it to the repairs. According to them there isn't any notable damage to the laptop and the only conclusion is that the motherboard is probably damaged already as they've tried reformatting it with a different hard disk but nothing changed. I then discovered at the bottom of my laptop was a tag that says 'Refurbished' with the HP logo (my laptop's brand). I didn't buy my laptop, it was given to me so I had to assume it was repaired before but when I asked my mom who gave it to me she didn't answer. Is the problem really with my motherboard? Are there any possible options other than buying a new one cos I'm kinda strapped for cash.

For further info, My Laptop's specs are:

MS Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit

AMD Turion II Dual Core MobileM520

4 GB RAM

AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200

My thanks in advance to those who can and will answer...

I know this may be a weird and very immature question but I have to ask it. I'm a recluse, a bit anti-social, and a shut in. Some of my main joys in life is to sit back and play some games, watch movies and anime whiling away my school years-but I finished school of course. Now I have to face a shut in/nerd's greatest fear: facing reality and getting a life. I knew it had to happen eventually and I have to do it like it or not but how on earth can I get a job and work when I only know anything from the stuff I learned at school and I can't imagine someone like myself in an office or company looking business-like and proper. I'm really overweight and I'm no good with dealing with pressure. My mom says that I can enjoy myself even when I'm working but how since I don't like work-in the professional sense-and that I can still play my games during my free time, which is likely to be only 3 hours a day at least since I'm also a care taker for my 3 sisters who are still kids. I know I can't rely on my mom forever and I need to take care of myself but how can I enjoy work when my nature counteracts it? Again sorry if this is a very immature question...

Where can I watch English dub anime for free nowadays since many video players are no longer usable due to the ever-so-annoying file deletion rules from SOPA/PIPA/ACTA? My thanks in advance for the good answers...

My laptop has been around over 1 yr and half.it has fairly good specs but lately it started freezing up and crashing in the sense that the screen goes completely blank and I'm forced to unplug it or force shut down since it carries no battery pack. But when I turn it on again all seems normal. It all started when I began playing an online game Dragon Nest SEA. My laptop would freeze up after playing for several minutes and the screen would go black. But worse than that it seems to be happening even when I'm not playing. Could it be that my video card has been damaged by the several occasions of freezing and crashing? A friend of mine says that this is a possibility and I'm worried since laptop video cards can't be changed. I don't know how to check without opening my laptop and I'm no technician. Can anyone help me out?
