With the advent of digital recording formats (e.g. CD) and the internet, piracy of copyrighted content — particularly music — has become a relatively not uncommon task among the general population. However, it must mak...
Before I share the image for this post, let me give everyone a quick background. For about 100 years, the British ruled what is today known as the Asian subcontinent (or Indian subcontinent) — the countries of Pakistan, Indi...
Someone who was simply bored, ingenuity in the face of harsh financial conditions, a salute to peace, a love for music, or simply an opportunity to turn a leftover war relic to good use, or maybe some other reason — I really...
Advance notice to all dotTechies who own Apple products, want to own Apple products, and/or like or love Apple: don’t be offended, this post is a joke (and I didn’t create the image, I just found it)! What do you call ...

What happens when your printer runs out of ink or toner? I don’t know about you but when my printer needs attention, a little light flashes on my Brother informing me to replace the toner. The Xerox WorkCentre 6505, however,...
How many dotTechies watch Jeopardy? I do not… not anymore anyway, I used to as a kid with my dad. How many dotTechies watched today’s (Feb 6, 2012) Jeopardy? I wish I had watched Jeopardy today because, if I had, I wou...
How many dotTechies live in an apartment or otherwise non-one story home? If you do, care to describe what your worst nightmare is in relation to your home? Fire? Flood? How about… coming home from a hard day of work and fin...
How many dotTechies drive cars regularly, or drove cars regularly in a past life? My guess is most. How many dotTechies have gotten into major accidents? I hope none. In my short time as a driver, I have only had a small fender be...
