  • Which pen tablet should I get to work on math problems?

    I want to buy a pen tablet for use to work out math (calculus) problems on my computer. I've read about the bamboo tablets from Wacom but people are saying some of the cheaper ones don't come with erasures. Sounds to me like I would need an erasure to do math. Or maybe theres a work around. What do you think?

  • Do you hate your parents for their mistakes?

    I feel like *part* of the reason my recent divorce took place is because my parents never set an example of a good marriage or never taught me how to deal with problems like a "normal" person. I'm 27 and I know everything I do is a choice I made but at the same time I make those choices sometimes because that's what I think is right at the time, only to learn later I could have done it another way.

  • Can I post a discriminating rent ad in Washington state under the fair housing act if I don't charge any money?

    Okay so I want to post this ad on craigslist but I don't want to be fined for discriminating. But I'm hoping because I'm not charging any money I don't fall under the Fair Housing Act. Here's my post

    "So I recently I went through an operation (divorce) where my wife removed my heart and devoured it. Now I have a house in Dupont all to myself for the remainder of the contract, which is 9 months. It's got 3 living room areas, 2 and a half bathrooms, and 3 bedrooms. The house is pretty much furnished besides the empty bedrooms. It's also got a two car garage. I'm looking for a hot chick with no kids who will cook and clean to live there for free. We'll possibly buy the groceries. Anyway we can work something out. I'm just to lazy after work to make myself dinner and lunch for the next day. I'm a clean person anyway because I pick up after myself and I normally just sit on my computer after work or watch a movie. I suppose since I'm asking for a hot chick I should upload a pic of myself so you know I'm not a creep. It'll make me feel better about myself knowing I have a hot chick living at my house :P Haha I'm playing. But seriously here's a pic of me and my EX-wife on vacation a few months ago. Damn her! And by the way I'm a brutally honest person so if you want to ask me something feel free."

  • if 2 Ethernet cables were right next to each other, is it possible data can jump to the opposite cable?

    The Army has a regulation stating that any ethernet cable connected to our secure net cannot be within three feet of our unsecure network. As if secret data will jump over! I mean even if you get into the OSI model and TCP and packet sniffing. Cmon...is it really possible?

  • Am I being overly stubborn by asking my girlfriend to do what she says?

    My girlfriend is really cool and I love her a lot but I can't stand that she doesn't do small things she says she will. I call it personal integrity but she seems to think that as long as she follows through with the big stuff teh little stuff shouldn't matter. Am I being overzealous about this?

  • How can a guy deal with commitment issues?

    I found the perfect girl, and she's perfect in every sense. But I'm worried I'll get bored with her and not be interested anymore. What can a guy do who only likes the chase do if he knows he should hold onto a good thing, but isn't ready for just one good thing?
