Download Monitoring

Posted: 04 Oct 2013 12:22 PM PDT

Hi,

 

I have moved in with my new friends to a flat. We often end up using your download limits and have to pay to airtel for extra bandwidth. This often results bad understanding when it comes during the month end and our bill arrives.

 

I need a software which will monitor the dowload usage which each device that connects to the modem through wifi does. Is there any software or incase any other modem which will work with Airtel connections and comes with a inbuit options to do it. At the max i will need to monitor 15 devices (the phones, tab and laptops).

 

It enough if the i get the total usage made by each and every device.

Airtel 3g Problem

Posted: 04 Oct 2013 12:21 PM PDT

So apparently in Kolkata, Airtel uses Vodafone's towers for 3G.
The problem with that for me is the fact that I need to manually scan each time to select either 'AirTel' or 'Vodafone IN' in order to switch between 2G and 3G (and sometimes even 'IND-AIRTEL'), and unless I do this, the phone stays perpetually in either of the two modes, going into "Emergency calls only" if I leave it on 3G and wander into non-3G territory. Is there anyone else with this problem (or a solution to it)?

Machete Kills

Posted: 04 Oct 2013 12:20 PM PDT

Machete Kills - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 

Machete Kills is an upcoming action exploitation film, which is currently to be directed by Robert Rodriguez. It is a sequel to both the 2010 film, Machete, the fake trailer in Grindhouse and a spin-off of Spy Kids. The script has been written by Rodriguez and the film will star Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba, Lindsay Lohan and Michelle Rodriguez all reprising their roles from the first film and newcomers to the series, Lady Gaga, Vanessa Hudgens, Mel Gibson, Demián Bichir, Alexa Vega, Zoe Saldana, Amber Heard and Charlie Sheen. The film will follow the titular ex-federale (Trejo) as he is recruited by the US government to stop an arms dealer (Gibson) from launching a deadly missile. Rodriguez has stated that he may have to hire another director if filming clashes with Sin City: A Dame to Kill For.

Airtel offering more non-advertised plans?

Posted: 04 Oct 2013 11:56 AM PDT

It turns out Airtel CC has been offering non advertised plans off late to customers who  are on high end plans and routinely come close to exhausting their FUP limits. I was offered a 2149 (w/o tax) plan for 8mbps and 125 GB FUP.

 

One of my friends got a 250 GB 8 mbps plan for close to 3K including taxes.

One of my best TV series of all time becoming desi!

Colors, Anil Kapoor ink deal to broadcast '24' in India > afaqs! news & features

Anil kapoor, please do some justice with Jack Bauer.

I also read something about cast: Chunky Pandey is in it :D

As for the cast and crew, Kapoor has promised the channel that there will be no known names on the show. However, word is that Ronit Roy, Atul Kulkarni, Chunky Pandey and Vidyut Jamwar will essay some of the lead roles. And, as we already know, Kapoor will play the main protagonist, anti-terror squad leader Jack Bauer, essayed by his favourite actor Keifer Sutherland in the original version. What's more? Abhinao Deo of Delhi Belly fame will direct the show. One wonders though, who will play the middle-eastern leader Omar Hassan, the role bagged by Kapoor in the American series...

Surface Pro has been an amazing device. It has been my daily machine for a LONG time. Surface Pro 2 is a very significant upgrade on top of that strength, with meaningful battery-life improvements so it lasts nearly a full workday, a dual-stage kickstand that works great on your lap, and even faster performance. With Power Cover – a new cover accessory that provides the same great typing experience as Type Cover along with a built-in extended battery that charges while you're working or while it's connected in your bag – Surface 2 lasts more than more than 10 hours. With the Docking Station for Surface Pro, Surface Pro 2 can be the first device that is a tablet, a laptop, AND a high-powered workstation.

MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

Recommend online stores for Shirts and T-Shirts in India

Posted: 04 Oct 2013 08:27 AM PDT

Ok here is the thing, day before I went to globus in shipra mall indirapuram, I really liked some shirts of US Polo brand but they all were minimum 2000 rupees, and I didn't want 2k per piece for daily wearing shirts, although they were really good, I settled for globe's own in house brand and bought 2 for 2100 rupees.

Now I see there are so many online portals for example yep me. Com, they sell for 500-700 rupees and some shirts are worthy atleast by design, cannot say for quality, never really tried online stores for clothes.

My submission is if someone used to globus or US POLO brands and found these online portals selling quality materials for less price, please share it, it can really be a money saver.

So guys please share your online clothes buying experience /recommendations of unknown but at par brands (at par with globus or US POLO or whatever good brand)
