<title>Handwriting problems since computer keyboards</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20744159</link>
<description><![CDATA[Anyone here have handwriting problems after many years of using a computer keyboard?

I was always praised for my neat and clear hand writing abilities back in school days.
I never had problems.

About a year or two ago I had to actually write a check.
I had the hardest time and went through three checks before I was satisfied.
I could sign my name fine but filling out the dollar amount line was hard!
The Pay To line was also ok as I could print that.
It is just handwriting that I seem to be out of practice with.
I've been using computer keyboards since around 1979.

I blame my problem on computers as they replaced my handwriting. As far as checks go, I used to do them well also until the on-line banking really caught on.

The only good thing is that I can now type much faster :D

Anyone else have this problem?]]></description>

<title>how should a landlord increase rent?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20742916</link>
<description><![CDATA[A few months ago I got one piece of mail about my rent going up, but aside from that, nothing whatsoever. 

Shouldn't the landlord show up with a new lease agreement?]]></description>

<title>Can&#x27;t take pictures in BestBuy?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20743431</link>
<description><![CDATA[So my wife is out shopping for a new refrigerator at BestBuy and because there are so many brands and models to choose from she decides to photograph them for later reference. Pretty soon an employee comes up and politely tells her that it is against BestBuy's policy to allow photography in the store. Obviously there are plenty of places to buy a refrigerator so no big deal but it did make me wonder...

Is there valid reason for a store to stop you from taking pictures?

If you ignored the store employees request, what could they really do? ]]></description>

<title>CFL - Compact Fluorescent Lights</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20630900</link>
<description><![CDATA[Do you use them and what do you do with them if they burn out.
 My city tells us NOT to put them in the garbage. But has no place near downtown to take them.
 I rented a 2 bedroom apt. to a student last month that had about 6 cfl in it. Yesterday I went to do some work on it and they were gone [garbage ?]]]></description>

<title>Sanity Check:  Diet Sodas</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20743466</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi Forum,

All of the Diet Cokes and Diet Pepsis I've opened today have an oily film on the surface of the soda.  It looks like an oil spill but inside the soda can.  When I pour it into a glass, it looks even worse.

Can someone who has either one please open it and look at the surface of the soda?  See if you notice anything unusual?  

Thank you!]]></description>

<title>turn offf a computer at night - or leave it on?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20695384</link>
<description><![CDATA[Here is another great debate, just like the toilet paper....

Is it better to turn off the computer at night saving hard drive wear and other wear 

or

Is it better to leave it on all the time, so that it does not have to go through the initial zapping of being turned on?]]></description>

<title>Credit Card Score drops becaue of theft!</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20735851</link>
<description><![CDATA[My credit score was 812 just last week says Credit Karma.

My score has been pretty high for a while now.

Well last week someone some how got a hold of one of my credit card numbers and charged over $600 to it. The credit card company contacted me about it the very next morning. So I of course told them it was not my charge. And they said I should cancel account for the card and get a replacment card.

But now I go and check Credit Karma and see that my score has dropped over 100 points. It went from 812 to 709.

So not ony did some one still my card number they fucked up my credit score!!! :(

The credit card that was stolen was also my first card I ever had.

Now I am guessing my credit card score dropped because I canceled my firt credit card. But I had no choice.

Is there anything I can do about this.

Will my score go up again once I get the replacment credit card?

This really blows!!]]></description>
