Geek-Tweak: Of Windows Printers and Apples

  • How to print to a Windows printer from an Apple.

View-Source: Spiritual Rootkits

  • A rootkit allows code to be hidden and run without your knowledge.
  • Different types of rootkits affect your 'system' in different ways.
  • If we hide God's Word in our system, we'll reap the benefits later.
  • If we hide the desires of our default nature in our system, we'll reap the death and destruction we've sown.
