I think he's confusing IST and Warriors' World, and have posted as much... but I could be wrong.

So... anyone else playing this?
Because it's pretty freaking amazing.

Just got http://www.daz3d.com/shop/starship-stingray]this as a freebie model (free to Platinum Club members this week) for Daz Studio:



It's a one-seater.

Since I've got it, I may as well use it... Who in Fenspace flies it? What is it called? Does it already have a description somewhere on the FenWiki?

So, did anyone else feel the earthquake a few minutes ago?  I felt it at 7:13, according to my computer's clock.

I want to try and unlock Hybrid on Purrfect Archer before the end, and I know not everyone might have done this one yet. In many ways, along with Pandora's Box 5, this is the conclusion to the City of Heroes story.

Rob's comment in his "home server" thread is on-target for me, too -- when I have a technical quandary, I bring it here, and I never fail to get an answer (or a dozen answers ).  And I have a quandary now.
In addition to my "real" work at my new job, I've been picking up a little ASP.NET on the side -- one of the tools I use in the course of my day is a web-based manager for the website content processes I oversee, written in-house in C# and ASP.NET, which is now my code to tweak and refine to fit my needs.  It revolves around a GridView which is dynamically bound to a datasource in the page's PageLoad event, its contents determined by a SQL query that is generated by clicking on/selecting options on the page itself before hitting a "refresh" button.
What I'd like to do is add column-sorting to this GridView.  I've already learned that if you don't bind the GridView to the data source at design time, the grid's built-in sorting functionality just doesn't happen.  My admittedly crude and primitive efforts haven't gotten me very far.  I've tried to assign handlers for onclick events to the columns as they are first accessed through the grid's RowDataBound event, but the results seem to require javascript functions in the page to handle those events instead of a C# method in the codebehind.  And it doesn't seem I can use those functions to call the C# sorting method without a rather odd and involved option that I can't seem to make work anyway.
So...  does anyone have any advice to offer?  Am I overlooking something obvious?  Is there a clever hack to get around the late binding limitation?  Should I look for a third-party grid component?
Thanks.

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.

(Amazing how often I think of this forum as a tech resource...)

I need to set up an internet-connected server at home so that I can make some files available. Now, when I think "server," I think "2U rack-mounted box connected to the SAN and backup tape library, with firewalls between it and the Internet." That's overkill for what I want here.

I'll need to set this up so that only people with a password to be able to download files. A web server, or something that's equally as easy for a non-technical person to use, appears to be indicated here. I assume a firewall of some sort is also necessary - the firewall in most DSL "modems" is designed for incoming traffic, not outgoing traffic. While a FTP server, a wiki back-end (preferably the same one that FenWiki uses), and a VPN host (I have a static IP address, but nobody else in the possible VPN does) would be nice, they're future projects, not essentials at the moment.

I don't yet know what OS is going to be on this box - recommendations there would also be appreciated, but no OS-wars, please. The hardware will be a PC out of my spare-parts box, so definitely not cutting-edge. Or even "trailing-edge," probably.

While a turnkey solution would be considered - time is tight and I'm busy - "free" trumps "easy" here, and I do have security concerns about turnkey solutions in general.

What do I need, and where do I get it?

You might want to write them a very special letter right away:  they've slipped a "forced arbitration" clause into their terms of use that takes away your right to sue them or participate in class action suits against them.  And the only way to opt out of it is in writing, with a real signature, mailed to their litigation department.
