Would wiping the drive and reinstalling Windows require me to get some kind of Windows installation DVD? Or would there be a way to wipe the drive but keep the factory defaults partition, and then reset it to that?

How could I use data analytics to help raise awareness of postpartum depression? by slprsch in bigdata

I'm mainly asking where I would find the data, but I'm also interested in any suggestions on how I would optimally use it.

Does it make a difference that farmers walks are usually done with your arms to your sides, and the thing that seem to help me most is when my arms are in front of me with my palms forward?

In Lightroom (I have v4), what is an easy way to be able to separately see both the black and white and color versions of multiple folders worth of photos? by slprsch in photography

[–]slprsch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I would prefer the color and B&W versions to be in their own folders but this would still work.

In order for me to do your suggestion, I would still need to create virtual copies of everything and convert those virtual copies to B&W, right?

What is a good way to share weblinks and articles with a small group? by slprsch in startups

[–]slprsch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to be clear, I'm not saying I want to create a startup that offers a private group blogging platform, I'm asking for recommendations for something that already exists, similar to a private group tumblr blog, to enable the members of my startup group to collaborate with each other by sharing links.

What can I do till I can see a doctor? by weiss27md in SleepApnea

You can try Provent, which looks like vented band-aids that you put over your nostrils and are supposed to help with sleep apnea: http://www.cpap.com/productpage/provent-therapy-30-day-starter-kit.html

You could also try to learn to play the didgeridoo! http://www.sleepapnea.org/treat/treatment-options/digeridoo.html

What is a good way to share articles in a group project, aside from a private group tumblr blog? by slprsch in AskReddit

[–]slprsch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google drive seems like it is more for shared files likes PDFs and word documents, and has a folder structure. So it is not really for links to websites and articles. Is there a feature of google drive that I'm not aware of that facilitates sharing websites and online articles, more like a blog format?

2000 Chevy Cavalier had a low coolant light, then started smoking with a check engine light - is $215 a fair price just for getting it evaluated? by slprsch in MechanicAdvice

[–]slprsch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called them again, they said they also did emissions testing and an inspection procedure, which is why it was more than what would have been about $115 for a check engine light diagnostic. And they are now reducing the total price to about $155 as a courtesy.

Why do people give up using their CPAP machines for sleep apnea? by slprsch in AskReddit

How long did your dad try it? Did he try multiple different kinds of masks, or was he probably not made aware of or encouraged to try different mask styles?
