Solve : Stop Watching Us? |
|
Answer» Recently I needed to download a program I had some lost. The recent revelations about the National SECURITY Agency’s surveillance apparatus, including using data from non-governmental business entities, if true, expose stunning abuses and violations of our basic Constitutional rights. Demand that the U.S. Congress reveal the full extent of the NSA’s data-collection (some say SPYING) PROGRAMS, and that Congress eliminate Constitutional violations. PETITION your government. (The right to petition government for redress of grievances is the right to make a complaint to, or seek the assistance of, one’s government, without fear of punishment or reprisals.) - See more at: http://blog.vuze.com/?utm_source=client&utm_medium=firstlaunch#sthash.VWtQwYiJ.dpufHuh As long as there are Governments, there will be people watching you. You can either RESIST or put up with it. |

Solve : Facebook Continued!!!? |

Answer» For some unknown reason, I cannot log on today. Yesterday morning there were no issues, and today it says " Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" There is no issue with my connectivity, as I am able to log on here and any other site. I was at work all day yesterday, no one else was home so there is no WAY any settings were changed, so I have no idea what is going on or how to fix it. |

Answer» Amazing video of the extreme skydiving. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZxo7IznQnkWhen I was a child I got pushed off a TWO meter high fairground attraction and landed straight on my mouth, I since then have rejected any form of free falling.

Solve : Mystical Ball? |
|
Answer» A magical crystal ball that knows what you are thinking. gosh it really worked. i was amazed for a while. then i figured out the trick lol Pray tell, what is the trick?It is imposable to get any numbers other than 0, 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, and 81. Those numbers are always given a common symbol and the ball always shows the symbol. Each time you load the game, new symbols are assigned to the numbers. To confuse things, the common symbol is also randomly assigned to some other numbers. This GIVES the illusion that all the symbols are assigned randomly. I STILL like this "mystical" ball: http://www.85qm.de/up/BigRedButton.swf Quote from: WillyW on December 06, 2007, 05:17:47 PM

Solve : Underground? |
|
Answer» Anyone here read the book Underground?No, who wrote it?Suelette Dreyfus. It's an awesome book about the crackdown on Australian, US, British, Canadian, and other country's hackers. It's a really good book, but on my palm pilot it's about 2000 pages.I have seen a video, which I believe was titled: "Underground" about what you have just described. Most of the documentation on any "Crackdown" on anything is usually published as a preventive sort of thing, in truth, there is NO STOPPING what they call "Cyber Terrorism". Much as there is no stopping anything else they claim to "Crackdown" on, its all designed to instill fear as a preventive action. Nothing more, 'else it wouldn't be published, the truth never makes it to paper on a mass scale. Anyway, probably a decent book/video, but its like I said, most of that crap is manipulated to keep people scared to do anything other than buy more crap to make themselves feel safe thinking governments are "Cracking down" on terrorism, or "Cracking down" on gang violence, or what have you.It's more like the first laws passed against hacking in the world really.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_(book) Quote from: Zylstra on September 11, 2008, 09:37:42 PM I have seen a video, which I believe was titled: "Underground" about what you have just described. It's a sad trend. Most can't WRITE either. tifus owt. Quote from: typhoeus on September 12, 2008, 10:50:09 AM Quote from: Zylstra on September 11, 2008, 09:37:42 PMIt is DEPRESSING...I have seen a video, which I believe was titled: "Underground" about what you have just described. Whenever I get to the library (closed FRIDAY, Saturday, and Sunday, and closes early Wednesday...) I am getting a book called: "Two Kinds of Decay" I also NEED to return my Andrew Lloyd Webber music book... Theres something I can do that most teens cant! Read music! Yeah, what with guitar tabs, piano tabs, and the like, kids don't feel they need to read music. I used to be able to read music, I'm trying to learn again. Quote from: typhoeus on September 12, 2008, 05:33:21 PM Yeah, what with guitar tabs, piano tabs, and the like, kids don't feel they need to read music. I used to be able to read music, I'm trying to learn again.Piano tabs? You mean Piano Chords? No. I am not so great at reading the chords... getting better at that though. Sheet music. I cant play it very quickly the first time, but it doesnt take me too long to get the hang of it. Quote from: Zylstra on September 12, 2008, 06:01:30 PM Piano tabs? You mean Piano Chords? No, I meant piano tabs. Google it. Quote from: typhoeus on September 12, 2008, 06:11:02 PM Quote from: Zylstra on September 12, 2008, 06:01:30 PMHoly crap! They do EXIST! You might have corrupted me for the rest of my life...Piano tabs? You mean Piano Chords?No, I meant piano tabs. Google it. |

Answer» Quote from: typhoeus on September 13, 2008, 02:11:56 PM I hate it when admins are right, because threads get closed. Do they?When they are right about no-longer-useful threads, yes.*whispers* Let's talk about the chat again! Oh yea, gotcha.Where did that chat take place? The chat BUTTON on the main page hasn't worked for me in the past. Must I be viewing it on a PC?Nope, I'm using a laptop. Or do you mean you're using a Mac? Just CLICK on "Join the chat" on the bottom of the forum index... And it will take you right to the chat. Have you got an IRC client?I am using a mac. I know nothing about IRC clients, so I'm guessing I don't have one. When I click on the button, it takes me to a page with lots of blue bars where it looks like TEXT could be filled in, but I'm not sure how to say anything. I've never chatted before.Not giving out or anything, but I think it WOULD be fair to start a new TOPIC now. And I'll try and get it sorted for you. Quote from: kpac on September 13, 2008, 02:35:01 PM Not giving out or anything, but I think it would be fair to start a new topic now. Thank you, I'll get around to it. |

The museums and stuff were fine, but the only restaurant that had sweet tea was McDonald's. Ugh. I'm glad I'm back in NC.D.c. was the nicer place I went to aside from chiago I also didn't like that I had to leave my knife behind. I understand why, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.i'd have to say my hometown was plano, tx. a few miles outside of dallas. moved to tn cuz my dad couldnt take the heat. I passed through Texas before. Just the TOP. I went through an armadillo. No, sorry, I meant that I went through Amarillo. Have you heard my other Texas joke? It SUCKS a little less. |

Solve : Your favourite Queen song?? |

Answer» I'll start it off - Don't Stop Me Now. Just remembered - for a pure fun track - "I'm feeling slightly mad". Fat Bottom Girls Princes of the Universe would have to be my favorite. I also like Bicycle Race and Fat Bottom Girls.It's not my favorite (hard decision, but headlong takes my medal for that one), but I just discovered I somehow know all the words to "A Kind of Magic"... Quote from: Aegis on August 02, 2008, 10:32:18 PM "We Will Rock You / We Are The Champions" I love Queen, I'm gonna say Bohemian Rhapsity (did I spell that correct? ) and Killer Queen. Quote from: lukee4eva on August 04, 2008, 08:39:30 AM Bohemian Rhapsity Bohemian Rhapsody. a Fine song.The first two albums are great...the rest PRETTY much blows. Quote .the rest pretty much blows. Huh? Quote from: Szpixman on August 12, 2008, 10:30:42 AM The first two albums are great...the rest pretty much blows.Queen and Queen II? I don't think I like a single song very much on either of thise two albums. Well, aside from Seven seas of Rhye, Which conveniently is a Instrumental on Queen, and an actual Song on Queen II. |

Solve : New Robot (Japan)? |
|
Answer» Quote from: street1 on August 24, 2008, 12:13:31 PM In the future I would like to see robot slaves controlled world wide by New Robot Japan might be ahead of the REST of the world when it comes to robots, but you can be sure that China is not very far behind. China's latest humanoid robot is sexy enough to turn heads with its realistic-looking body (unlike Barbie's), but it is not CAPABLE of the level of SOPHISTICATION provided by the Japanese Actroid female robot just yet. I find it strange that China, being an extremely patriotic country, would name its robot Dion INSTEAD of something more localized like Chun-Li. Dion can currently sing and move a bit of her lips as though she suffered from a massive stroke. Check out a video of Dion in action here. Edit: Below is an example of the robot technology used to create the above mentioned. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ez0JVeSQ0tM Cool. Nice find.I think its quite creepy You're not the only one. The LINK took me to another robot video and not the one your story was talking about. Pretty sure that robot in the YouTube video was not made in China. Correct. |

Solve : The Crying, Whining *censored*-Fest (against Windows Updates)? |
|
Answer» I've DONE my daily job which is scratching the skin off my face, banging my fists and head on the keyboard and cursing REALLY REALLY bad words at my computer when it crashed just because I shut it down when it was doing an update. Who the bloody *censored* downloads updates at about 10:30 PM - 11:00 PM or IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT? Who and where are they? Gonna kick their a##es!! But seriously, one connection stall and you get an error from this piece of-- horse manure, that once you click 'OK' to (because it's the only option (that has not been grayed out)), shuts down your connection, and THEN, you have to go through all these instructions to prevent - ONLY prevent - it from happening again, only to get it again a few days after you 'fix' the problem. *censored*, I can't believe I got owned by a F**KING ERROR. If there weren't any laws saying you couldn't, I would've been going on a murdering rampage by now. dude, calm down. what windows system do you have Dairyman? In windows vista, when computer has some windows updates going on, I can have the computer shut down AFTER the windows updates have completed. So it finishes all the updating that can be done without rebooting required and then just shut down. Hey, just get some windows restoration going and you probably will be okay!It doesn't even WARN me that it's gonna be checking for updates or installing the updates. I'm using Windows XP (Btw, I managed to get my CD-ROM drive fixed with a little HELP from my relatives, I'll update that on my SPECS. tonight) with a wireless broadband connection (which is literally dial-up, just given the name broadband by the ISP, cheap bastards. The error message just appears randomly, and stays on the screen. I would've killed myself if my computer was running my life support, that's for sure.You should go into Control Panel and then go into Windows security center and choose " notify me but dont automatically download or install them".Ok I've calmed down now. I disabled the Automatic Updates service.lol, I have that whole system disabled. Windows FIREWALL, windows security center, windows update... all disabled. Ahhh, the joy of not being hassled by BS of this sort. so you shut down the whole system of windows updates. Well, at least, just visit windows update at least once a month on patch tuesday at worst.erm, no. SP3 is all I need. well, and my hardware firewall, and a few scans every once in a while. Although when I do have problems- only 2 infections in the last year, only one required recovery console to manually delete WLNotify hook dlls, the rest were easily removed with MBAM.that's good. |

Solve : 1500 Watch as Teen Commits Suicide in Front of His Webcam? |
|
Answer» http://snipr.com/6wpwr Abraham K. Biggs, known as CandyJunkie on the BodyBuilding.com forums that he frequented, had threatened to commit suicide many times. However, last WEEK, he really meant it. And so it was that Abraham Biggs downed an overdose of anti-depressent medications, and hundreds of people watched his webcam while he died. The video from Abraham Biggs’ webcam was also posted on Justin.TV. It has since been taken down, but while up the description read: “CandyJunkie was a regular poster on Bodybuilding.com, and a bit of an attention *censored*, but so is half the misc section of bb.com. CandyJunkie, though, posted a lot about taking depressants and muscle relaxers. He made threads [sic] threatening to OD on these drugs several times but never followed through until Wednesday, November 19th 2008. Live on justin.tv he overdosed and seemed to fell [sic] ASLEEP. He passed away some time later as about a hundred or so miscers watched. Local authorities were eventually notified, but were hours too late. Rest in PEACE.” In reality, it is estimated that as many as 1500 people watched over the course of the twelve hours between when Biggs stated his intention and took the overdose, and when he died and was discovered by police. Some people actually egged him on, others discussed whether he had taken enough medication to actually kill him. But nobody bothered to alert authorities until it was too late. By the time someone contacted the forum administrator with what was going on - and the BodyBuilding.com administrator contacted the police where Abraham was, in Broward County, Florida - Abraham Biggs was dead. The last image on Abraham’s webcam, before it was taken down, was of the police entering, weapons drawn, and then finding the body. This is a sad case, on all levels. And it raises the question - what, if any - responsibility did those watching, the BodyBuilding.com administrators, and the Justin.tv adminstrators, have? What do you think? Were the Administrators watching? In my opinion, when someone says they are going to commit suicide, you need to talk to them. Talk to them, and keep talking to them, even if your parents are yelling at you to get off the phone/computer or whatever. If you decide that they are really serious, you ASK them how and when they are going to do it. Then you call 911, and don't feel bad about it, and you explain the situation. But, the number one thing: Dont feel bad about it if they do manage to off themselves. It was their choice, bad one or not. I think its HARD for some people to take things they see over the Internet seriously. Quite frankly, just thinking about it, if I were watching, I would make the guess that he had faked it, and I personally would probably not have contacted the police. woa thats sad just really sadWhen I was 14-->43 years ago.Me and a friend were walking to the bowling alley.We decided to stop and ask Jacky Bryant if he wanted to hang out with us. The front door of his home was glass at the top half so we could see inside. He was sitting in an easy chair with a 22 rifle between his legs and had put it under his neck and shot up.It killed him instantly. Wow! after 43 years I still found this hard to type... God Bless Jacky Bryant.woa that musta been tramatizing |
