Macbook batter not charging. Scared to unplug at 86%
MacBook model A1181, battery A1185.
Plugged in it won't discharge the battery any more, but it won't charge either.
This is new.
And not good.
Research:
macbook battery stops charging at 98%, is it dying already?

Get Linux running on your Linksys Router
Recently my router was giving me some problems, the worst type, dropped signal!
After hours of searching around in forums and such, I concluded that it must (hopefully) have something to do with Linksys's generally bad router software, you know, the page you goto to make all your settings and stuff... usually found at 192.168.1.1
On to the good stuff...
It's all actually quite simple, and I've taken the liberty to get all you need and make it available for you right here... so, feel free to send me some beer money, or better yet, BEER! (keep in mind, I only drink quality micro and craft brews...)
Automatically making connections
Just a quick post to note that the Facebook functionality where when you type in a URL it instantly finds if there's a Facebook group with that web site is pretty cool.
It puts a little too much information about the group right embedded in your post, but still a very cool connection-maker (or re-enforcer).

The Unarchiver
Uncompress RAR, 7zip, tar, and bz2 files on your Mac. Many new Mac users will be puzzled the first time they download a RAR file. Do them a favor and download UnRarX for them!
