    • RE: Sabina

      At first she will seem unique and funny, but you will realize that she is a girl who started to [whore] herself at a young age, around 12-13.

      A girl who tries to act deep, but is in fact the biggest joke around. She will label herself as [goth] or [emo] and will have a ridiculous hair style in which her stringy, limp, damaged hair is directly in front of her face, causing her to have horrible [acne].

      Sabinas lack personal and moral [hygiene].

      A very annoying habit of a Sabina is that when trying to appear intelligent, she will try to be poetic; aka, a [pretentious] asshole.

      Avoid a Sabina at all costs! She may seem special, unique kind, and even smart, but shes just like every whore out there. Same contents in a different package.

    • Thermistor

      A thermistor (short for thermal resistor) is a type of resistor that is used to measure temperature. While typical resistors are designed to maintain consistent resistance regardless of temperature, a thermistors resistance varies significantly as the temperature changes. Once a thermistor is calibrated, changes in electrical resistance can be accurately translated into changes in temperature.
      Thermistors are commonly used in computers to monitor the ambient temperature of internal components. For example, thermistors may be used to record the temperature near the CPU, RAM slots, and the power supply. These thermistors are usually integrated into the computers motherboard. The actual temperature of components such as the processor and memory modules is typically measured by a diode that is integrated into the chip.
      Computers use the information recorded by thermistors to prevent overheating. For example, if a processor is running near capacity for an extended period of time, the temperature may gradually increase. When this happens, the computer might speed up the internal fans to increase airflow and cool the computer. In extreme circumstances, such as when a laptop is used outside on a hot day, the fans may not be able to keep the computer at a safe temperature. If the thermistors record a dangerously high temperature, the computer may shut down to avoid overheating and damaging the hardware.

    • Text Alignment

      Most word processing programs give you the capability to change the text alignment of a block of text. This setting determines how the text is displayed horizontally on the page. The four primary types of text alignment include left aligned, right aligned, centered, and justified.

    • TCP

      Stands for Transmission Control Protocol. TCP is a fundamental protocol within the Internet protocol suite — a collection of standards that allow systems to communicate over the Internet. It is categorized as a transport layer protocol since it creates and maintains connections between hosts.
      TCP compliments the Internet protocol (IP), which defines IP addresses used to identify systems on the Internet. The Internet protocol provides instructions for transferring data while the transmission control protocol creates the connection and manages the delivery of packets from one system to another. The two protocols are commonly grouped together and referred to as TCP/IP.
      When data is sent over a TCP connection, the protocol divides it into individually numbered packets or segments. Each packet includes a header that defines the source and destination and a data section. Since packets can travel over the Internet using multiple routes, they may arrive at the destination in a different order than they were sent. The transmission control protocol reorders the packets in the correct sequence on the receiving end.
      TCP also includes error checking, which ensures each packet is delivered as requested. This is different than UDP, which does not check if each packet was successfully transmitted. While the built-in error checking means TCP has more overhead and is therefore slower than UDP, it ensures accurate delivery of data between systems. Therefore TCP is used for transferring most types of data such as webpages and files over the Internet. UDP is ideal for media streaming which does not require all packets to be delivered.

    • T1

      This is a data transfer system that transfers digital signals at 1.544 megabits per second (quite a bit faster than a 56K modem, which maxes out at around 0.056 Mbps). Most small to mid-sized colleges and business have T1 lines for their Internet connections. Because of the T1s large bandwidth, hundreds of people can be accessing the Internet from one T1 line. However, like all good things, too many people on one T1 line can cause dramatic decreases in data transfer speeds. For this reason, multiple T1s are often used.

    • Snow Leopard

      Snow Leopard is another name for Mac OS X 10.6, which was released on August 26, 2009. It followed Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and preceded the release of Mac OS X 10.7 Lion.
      Unlike Leopard, Mac OS X Snow Leopard did not include hundreds of new features. Instead, the update was primarily designed to improve the performance and efficiency of Mac OS X. Snow Leopard was the first Mac operating system to require an Intel-based Mac, which means it cannot be used on older Macintosh computers. However, by removing the PowerPC code from the operating system, Apple was able to shrink the size of the operating system by roughly 7 gigabytes compared to Leopard and improve the speed of common operations.
      While Snow Leopard was not a feature-oriented release, it did include a few notable additions. For example, Snow Leopard was the first version of Mac OS X to include autocorrect support, which automatically fixes common typos. Additionally, Snow Leopard added Microsoft Exchange support to Mail, Address Book, and iCal, which is important for Macs that are used in Windows-based organizations. Mac OS 10.6 also shipped with several new versions of Apple software, including Safari 4, iChat 5, and QuickTime X, a completely rewritten version of QuickTime.
      The final Snow Leopard software update was 10.6.8, released on July 25, 2011.

    • Smishing

      Smishing is a combination of the terms SMS and phishing. It is similar to phishing, but refers to fraudulent messages sent over SMS (text messaging) rather than email.
      The goal of smishing is to capture peoples personal information. In order to do this, smishers send out mass text messages designed to capture the recipients attention. Some messages may be threatening, e.g., Visit this URL to avoid being charged .00 per day, while others may provide a fake incentive, such as You have won a free gift card, visit this website to claim your prize. If you click on a link in the text message, you will be directed to a fraudulent website that will ask you to enter your personal information, such as your name, address, phone number, and email address. In some cases, a smishing website will ask you to enter your bank account information or social security number.
      Smishing has become increasingly common now that smartphones are widely used. Many smartphones allow you to simply click on a link in a text message to view the website in your phones browser. This makes text messages an effective bait for luring unsuspecting users to fraudulent websites. Therefore, just like when you receive email spam, is best to not visit websites mentioned in text messages from unknown sources.

    • Smart Home

      A smart home is a house or other dwelling with automated or remotely controlled components. Some smart components require a proprietary interface though most smart home features can be controlled by a mobile device or computer.
      While there are no technical requirements for a smart home, a basic smart home might have remote controlled lighting and an automated thermostat. If your home has a smart lighting system, for example, you can configure different lights to turn on during the day and automatically switch off all the lights late at night. A smart thermostat can be configured to keep the house warm during the day and cool at night. If you leave your house for several days, you can set the thermostat to vacation mode, which will reduce the energy usage of your HVAC system.
      Advanced smart homes may include several other smart components. For example, smart blinds can shut to keep the house cool or open to allow more heat in through the windows. Some blinds can be programmed to open slowly in the morning to help you wake up to natural lighting. A smart security system can monitor suspicious activity and sound an alarm or contact the police if necessary. It may also provide convenient features such as automatically unlocking the front door and turning on lights when you pull into the driveway.
      A smart home may also include smart appliances that you can monitor and control remotely. For example, you can check if you remembered to run the dishwasher before you left the house and turn it on from your mobile app if you forgot. If you have a smart oven, you can turn it on while you are on the road so that your food will be cooked when you get home. A smart refrigerator can detect the items it contains and let you know when you need to get more milk when youre at the grocery store, for example.
      Several different manufacturers make smart components and appliances. While it is ideal to design a smart home from the ground up using a single brand of components, in many cases that isnt possible. Therefore, when adding smart components to your home, you may have to get accustomed to multiple interfaces. Fortunately, most smart components come with easy-to-use apps that run on both iOS and Android devices.

    • Session

      In the computing world, a session refers to a limited time of communication between two systems. Some sessions involve a client and a server, while other sessions involve two personal computers.
      A common type of client/server session is a Web or HTTP session. An HTTP session is initiated by a Web browser each time you visit a website. While each page visit constitutes an individual session, the term is often used to describe the entire time you spend on the website. For example, when you purchase an item on an ecommerce site, the entire process may be described as a session, even though you navigated through several different pages.
      Another example of a client/server session is an email or SMTP session. Whenever you check your email with an email client, such as Microsoft Outlook or Apple Mail, you initiate an SMTP session. This involves sending your account information to the mail server, checking for new messages, and downloading the messages from the server. Once the messages have been downloaded, the session is complete.
      An example of a session between two personal computers is an online chat, or instant messaging session. This type of session involves two computers, but neither system is considered a server or client. Instead, this type of communication is called a peer-to-peer or P2P. Another example of P2P communication is BitTorrent file sharing, where file downloads are comprised of one or more sessions with other computers on the BitTorrent network. A P2P session ends when the connection between two systems is terminated.

    • Service Pack

      A service pack is a software package that contains several updates for an application or operating system. Individual updates are typically called software updates or patches. When a software company has developed several updates to a certain program or operating system, the company may release all the updates together in a service pack.
      Many Windows users are familiar with service packs because of the popular service pack released for Windows XP, called SP2. Windows XP SP2 not only included typical updates such as bug fixes and security updates, it added new features. Some of the features included new security tools, interface enhancements to Internet Explorer and Outlook Express, and new DirectX technologies. In fact the SP2 service pack for Windows XP was so comprehensive, many newer Windows programs require it in order to run.
      Service packs are usually offered as free downloads from the software developers website. A software update program on your computer may even prompt you to download a service pack when it becomes available. Typically, it is a good idea to download and install new service packs. However, is may also be wise to wait a week or two after the service pack is released to make sure no new bugs or incompatibilities are introduced with the service pack. If you do not have a high-speed Internet connection, you can often purchase a service pack update CD for a small charge.
      While service packs are commonly released for Microsoft products, not all companies use them. Apples Mac OS X, for example, uses the Software Update program to install incremental updates to the operating system. Each Mac OS X update includes several small updates to the operating system and bundled applications, much like a service pack.

    • Read-only

      A read-only file or storage device contains data that cannot be modified or deleted. While data can be accessed or read from a read-only file or device, new data cannot be added or written to the device.
      Most operating systems, such as Windows and OS X allow you to mark individual files as read-only. In Windows, you can right-click a file and select Properties to view more information about the file. You can click the Read-only checkbox (located in the General tab) to make a file read-only. In OS X, you can right-click a file and select Get Info to view more information about file. You can then select the Locked or Stationery options in the files Get Info window to disable write access to the file. A locked file on a Mac is the same thing as a read-only file in Windows.
      Windows and OS X also allow you to set folders or entire storage devices to read-only. In some cases, the storage media itself may be read-only. For example, DVDs and CD-Rs are permanently read-only once the initial data has been written to the disc. Some flash drives and SD cards have a physical switch that can be used to make the media read-only. By setting a storage device to read-only, you can ensure that important data isnt accidentally modified or erased.
      NOTE: Read-only also refers to a type of memory called ROM that supports reading but not writing.

    • Quad-Core

      A quad-core CPU has four processing cores in a single chip. It is similar to a dual-core CPU, but has four separate processors (rather than two), which can process instructions at the same time.
      Quad-core CPUs have become more popular in recent years as the clock speeds of processors have plateaued. By including multiple cores in a single CPU, chip manufacturers can generate higher performance without boosting the clock speed. However, the performance gain can only be realized if the computers software supports multiprocessing. This allows the software to split the processing load between multiple processors (or cores) instead of only using one processor at a time. Fortunately, most modern operating systems and many programs provide support for multiprocessing.
      Some examples of quad-core CPUs include the Intel Core 2 Quad, Intel Nehalem, and AMD Phenom X4 processors. The Intel processors are used in Mac, Windows, and Linux systems, while the AMD processors are only used in Windows and Linux systems. While four cores may seems impressive, some high end computers have two quad-core CPUs, giving them a total of eight processing cores. Now that is some core power!
