I'm meeting up with a friend from out of town this evening after the O's game is over. Since she and her boyfriend will already be downtown for the O's game, I would prefer not to make them venture too far from Camden Yards.

What is a good place we can go to that will have some really good seafood? I'm thinking possibly Lexington Market as that is about as authentic a Baltimore experience as one can have, but am wondering if there is somewhere else even better that I'm missing here.

Thanks!

Edit: Looks like Lexington Market is closed on Sundays so that it out.

Most of the hosted solutions I'm coming across won't let you use your own hardware. Can somebody please recommend a CoLo in the DC area that will allow me to use the hardware I own? I'm just looking for somewhere to rack the server that is offsite.

Also, what exactly would this be called? I thought it was just Managed Hosting but apparently I am wrong as that means the service provider is providing the hardware.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know much about cars when it comes to things like repairs and am hoping you guys might be able to provide some advice.

My '08 Ford Fusion just failed it's annual safety inspection for having three busted engine mounts. The shop that did the inspection gave me a quote of $1,050 to do the repairs. Is this high for this type of repair?

Also, how normal is it for these parts to fail this early in the life of the vehicle? I don't drive particularly fast and am not very rough on the vehicle so it was a bit of a surprise to me.

Fortunately I have Geico's Mechanical Breakdown Insurance on the vehicle so it will only cost $250 if I end up going that route. However, I'm concerned if I use

The blackout appears to be have been a successful battle but the war is far from won.

As new measures begin to take shape domestically and abroad (ACTA, etc.) we need to ensure that we persevere and don't lose sight of the big picture.

What do you guys see as the next steps to defending internet freedom? Certainly the blackout was a huge win, writing our elected officials appears to be helping as well...but what's next?

The explosive growth of r/SOPA over the past 48 hours has been truly exciting. However, it has also led to a flood of images, rather than the discussion we'd like to promote.

I'd like to encourage everybody to do their best to offer and participate in intelligent discourse related to protecting the freedoms of the internet. Additionally, I'd like to do this without having to enforce any strict rules, especially given what we're ALL fighting for over here.

I encourage everybody to begin posting any images or memes over at SOPAfunny. These images are important and make many of the important points of these discussions easily digestible in bite size form.

I work in a primarily Windows shop but around 30% of our servers (primarily web) are CentOS machines.

Given that my client machine is built on Windows 7, what would you recommend as the must have tools to properly manage Linux from my Windows laptop?

I'm looking to put together a list for current and future reference.

Thanks in advance.

This is probably an incredibly simple question to answer but I'm not sure. I've seen it used to describe a type of person a lot lately (on reddit) but have been unable to track down just what it means.

At first I thought it was the first 3 of the Myers-Briggs personality type, but now I'm pretty sure that is not the case.

Thanks in advance.
