I dont understand why mozilla doesnt have an auto-uninstall instead of creating a new add/remove everytime you install it. So by the recomended steps, 1.download 2.uninstall(if upgrading) 3.install 4.run firefox and pray at the same time (that your 1000 extentions dont get broken)

If it was easy everybody would be doing it. Keep at it and youll crack it. Do basic tutorials like "hello world", and stuff like "my ultra basic calculater" they will teach you all you need to know Pierce

Granted, but you can no longer bring time back to normal speed, everybody thinks your insane and thows you in an asylum. I wish, i wish for um, my laptop to have a longer battery life than 57 minutes. Pierce

Ill never forget that day, i think it was 1:20pm Irish summer time, it was the day i had my first shave, and it was just after a nice relaxing hot bath. I was sitting on the sofa putting on my big sport socks, and then the oprah winfrey show was interupted by a news report. Something that never happens here. "Were sorry to interupt your tv program, but a plane has just crashed into one of the twin towers" As it was showing the picture of one of the towers another plane flew into the second. It cut back to the news and the camera shudded. "A second plane has just hit the second tower" My mother

hmm, why do i get the impression you like ebay? maybe its a subliminal image. Nice wood work on the sign, i know how hard it is to make it look just right. Pierce

Heres my rant, i dont like threads that i found particularly interesting to be deleted, id like to know who did delete the political thread and why. Pierce

Yeah, im a bit skeptical myself, but if 1/10th of the technology is for real, well then, that would be interesting Pierce

This is crazy http://www.reallysimplenews.com/articles/3..._68GHz_CPU.html 2TB of hdd, and 1TB of memory! Pierce

i love how the whole point went right over your young head. ohhh i don't care what anyone says. we are not the greatest country in the world, we just have too more idiots that think we are than anyone else. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My point was made, it anoied you, and a few others i bet. The "sad" part, is new orleans. It is unfortunate that it did happen, and it is nice to see each fellow american looking after each other. The scary(sad) part, is your ocupation in iraq. Charity begins at home. Im not going to say any more than this. Pierce

The most powerful country in the world can't even look after its own people. How sad. Pierce

Ive used nvidia, im a major fan. I have the geforce 2 ultra in my desktop, and in my new laptop im getting the 6800 ultra. Which is better?, this is a bit like the "AMD OR INTEL?" battle. To be frank, if you are a gamer, and you buy AMD, i would think your better bet is to go with nvidia, as AMD and nvidia have been giving each other backhanders since they became the gamers choice. Either way, choose the brandname you like. Pierce

HAHA!

I think "the blogging community" is no longer a good description. This is what i propose http://www.reallysimplenews.com/?article=264 Pierce

Athlon xp came out around windows xp, so i would assume they are both the same, just the 64 has 64bit. I would trust though that the 64 has a few more features than the XP. Pierce

Your statement is contradictory; you claim there is no performance gain, then state there is a performance gain. The tests I've seen have shown a few areas of decent (10%) performance gain, but this was balanced out by areas where performance was worsened and by the difficulty of finding drivers. It would be more precise to say there is no net performance gain. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Key words "certain operations are a little faster". Playing a computer game will be the exact same speed, maybe a little slower. It will only become faster when people start writing programs to take advantag

First off, you want to use FreeBSD, or a linux system. Reason being is that their formatting is extremly efficent compared to FAT/NTFS tables. Secondly *nix because its TCP/IP Stack is more effient allowing you to use more of that gigabit nic. If your not comfortable using *nix, then stick with windows, preferably a windows 2k3 operating system and not windows xp. With 3 drives you cant "mirror", with 6 you could setup a Raid 5, and have stripping and mirroring accross 2 sets of 3. (so you have 6 hard drives, each 200GB big, would be 600GB of storage not 1.2TB, cause the other 600GB is being u

Not to mention there is nothing gained by the 64bit, not even performance (yes i read a massive article detailing why). The only advantage of 64bit, is that you can install 20GB of ram, have hard drives up to 64 TeraBytes and of course run 64bit execution's so certain operations are a little faster. Considering your using a laptop, and still want portability, i doubt you want to carry arround an extra 2 boxes holding 10 Strips of 2GB memory modules and 128 500GB hard drives? Pierce

You need to be exact about the error number, if you are you should be able to look up microsoft's database of messup's. Pierce

New Laptop Help/networking Question ( I Think)
Pierce replied to TheTrueDarkOne's topic in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP
Well, depends i think a USB wifi connecter costs $40 or so. The built in pci-mini wireless cards are usualy $100~? Shop around at your favourite online store and find out. Acer make nice laptops, not too pricy either. Some of dell's laptops are good, but support is iffy at the moment. I think youd be pushing the limit looking for a sony, but its worth a shot. Photoshop, other than its load time, doesnt take much time, until you render. But anything over 1000mhz is going to be fast. Pierce -
Yup, apprently we cant process the information fast enough so we go blind for a moment. This was derived from "rubbernecking" where people are looking at a crash and then they crash and become part of it. http://www.reallysimplenews.com/?article=248 Pierce

Yup, yet another one, and this time its already waiting with guns loaded to be launched. http://www.reallysimplenews.com/?article=244 Pierce (could a more powerfull moderator move this to "on the web" tnx)

woah, limited to 10 port ranges? damn that sucks. As for p2p, i used shareaza and didnt have to setup any port forwarding on my computer all be it awfully crap connection for downloading. I changed programs i now use morpheus which seems to like my setup better. Id suggest you bring the router back and ask for a new one saying that it did not say anything about being limited to 10 port ranges. Pierce

NTFS has better storage tables so you lose less space to "partitioning". I would recomend NTFS over FAT 32. Pierce

Well, yeah 2 top of the range nvidia 6800 ULTRA sli's + dual pci-e motherboard and then w/e chip,... the graphics cards alone will break the bank Pierce
