Solve : I... Hate Zohan...?

Answer»

I was fumbling through my photobucket when I found these photo's of a "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" Standie my lil bro got from the THEATER he use to work at. He's got it standing in what we call the "Front room" of my fathers HOUSE, which, is covered by a thermoblanket to try to keep the COLD AIR in the room and the warm air out. We only use the room for storage, anyway, you walk past and you see this:



Its like Adam Sandler is about to attack your hair with scissors or somethin'... Its both ANNOYING, bizzare, and absolutely terrifying to see in the middle of the night when you forget its even there.

Here's a full shot of the Zohan standie...

Solve : Optimism...?

Answer»

Got that from the game Fallout 3, one of 'em said "They have plasma weapons that can turn people into a pile of goo, how do you defend against that!?". This was the response: 


 Great game, took me forever to finish though.Why did you start 3 different topics when it could have been 1 ? ?Uh, what patio?Kind of offtopic but You should get some mods when you beat the game
It MAKES it last much much longer.I have all the expansions for it, bought the game of the year edition and gave the other copy to my older bro. At least Microcrap ain't like they use to be with halo and whatnot. They use to be all "No! One person per game! Noone else or you will DIE! Alright, MAYBE you won't die,  but we'll invalidate your serial then you'll kill yourself anyway! So you will DIE!"What exactly does Microsoft have to do with Fallout 3?Microsoft Games for Windows Live, horrible SYSTEM, its rooted in a lot of PC games. Its usually that or Steam, I prefer steam, I can take my games with me.

Solve : My computer ate a... Stinkbug...?

Answer»

Alright, so, this stupid stinkbug was ORBITING my lamp when it spotted one of the annoying blue LED fans in this computer case, the DECORATIVE grill did nothing to stop it from dive bombing the fan, the BUG obliterated in the fan, there where only PIECES of it. I had to clean a chunk out of the fan so it would stop buzzing against the blades.

Ironically, I was listening to a song called Take This Life by In Flames when the bug kamakazed my fan.Wow. At least it didn't manage to get through and land on one of the parts that heats up. A heated stinkbug is a smelly stinkbug. Indeed... It was hillarios, I expected to find it twitching on the floor, I even took the side panel off expecting it to be inside, I can't really SEE inside even though this case has a window. Not a trace other than that bit that was lodged in the fan... I almost feel sorry for the stupid thing, it only sees light and dark in black and white, and there wired to think that light is up, 'cause that's where the sun is and always has been. Then we come along putting up lights and there beating there heads to death trying to get to 'em. Kind of like moths spiralling toward a candle, because they try to keep the "sun" at the same angle to go in a straight line.Yeah, its the same concept, all insects seem to only see dark and light in black and white. Like a fuzzy over contrasted black and white camera. I almost feel sorry for the lil things, they don't have a brain, just a nerve cluster.

Because it's fun to fool yourself into thinking that you will become someone important in the human society.  It also gives you a good incentive to study and work hard; having spread your hopes and dreams on the INTERNET, the greatest forum in the world [I believe], you would not like to fall below those hopes and dreams and make a fool out of yourself.

No offense, but if that's what it takes to motivate you to study and get ahead (not disappointing people you don't know) I think a reevaluation may be in order. And if you believe that thinking you may go somewhere in this world is "fooling yourself" ... WELL, maybe a BIG reevalutaion  .hehe. i was just fooling around .I hope so.

if thats the case , i'm glad we don't have walmart , even if it is a small second rate storeYeah, why would you want to shop somewhere that old people go?

This is the most moronic thread I've ever seen - and believe me, that's saying a lot. Quote
This is the most moronic thread I've ever seen

Especially if you don't live in a Wal-Mart country.I'm not sure what wal-mart country is, but we have one less than a mile from where I live.Can someone tell my why almost all people hate Wall-Mart?

If all people hate Wall-Mart why do they buy STUFF there? We don't have a Wall-Mart in this country, but if we had I would properly buy there. Like the stuff is really, really, really cheap. and they have the most stuff + they give more job, and I do know they put other business in bankruptcy but that's only becuase people stop buying there. So why dose every one hate them?To say that everyone hates them is a gross exaggeration.  Obviously, if that were true, Walmart would not have achieved the level of success it has achieved.  But, they've had some very negative public image issues to deal with.  This Oct. 2006 articlle should shed some light: Wal-Mart: A 'Reputation Crisis'No, they don't hate it!

It is just that it is so crowded...

You really don't understand that it means "A country where Wal-Mart operates stores"? Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Puerto Rico and the USA. Plus a number of other countries where they own part or all of store chains with different names.
I once went in to a wal-mart intent on bringing them down.

But I found a great deal on a set of sockets... and they had just rolled back their price on desk fans; and really, I felt bad about my idea after that senior citizen greeted me so warmly. And I mean, really, with all those smiley faces everywhere, you really would need a cold heart to do anything mean.

I mean, the smiley faces are always watching.

Always.

So I decided to abate my crusade, at least until I could milk out the great value. I suddenly had an URGE to paint everything blue, as well. But I think that might be because I was stuck in Happy-Happy VALLEY on Earthbound at the time. Quote from: Salmon Trout on December 10, 2009, 01:50:39 PM

In the center is a guy falling backwards, with one leg sticking out. They added a guy flying backwards, opposite the original man, in black marker (LOOKING like he was kicked).

Solve : Slim Jim crisis! Will we Survive??

Answer»

From
http://www.nypost.com/seven/07022009/business/wheres_the_beef__177174.htm

Quote

Don't be surprised if Slim Jims start disappearing from convenience store shelves -- lovers of the dried meat snack may start stockpiling them now that production has been halted.

ConAgra, the maker of Slim Jim, hasn't produced any new inventory since an explosion destroyed the only plant in the country that made the beef jerky treat in early June. Three people died in the incident, which appears to have been caused by a gas leak.

The company won't be able to make new Slim Jims for at least another MONTH, which means that, for the time being, there's a finite supply available to sate the appetites of hungry truckers.

And just like the infamous "Seinfeld" episode, in which Elaine begins hoarding the Sponge after the female contraceptive is taken off the market, analysts are bracing for a BIG summer Slim Jim run

Start hoarding now while you still can!
Are you prepared to live a month or more without Slim Jims? Are you?Oh my God! The world is COMING to an end! It's Judgment Day, I TELL you! Kiss your ### good-bye!

Oh wait, what were we talking about?OMG I LOVE BEEF JERKY...


















but since i dont have a clue what slim jim is...Soft round jerky meat in plastic...
Available anywhere in the civilised world...

Heck i bought them in Borneo even.yes, I don't think we even get them up here. we have to opt for some better stuff.

Solve : Computer related film?

Answer»

What is your most enjoyable computer based film?"The Net", and I'm in love with Sandra
Mr. Broni  beat me to it. Definitely the Net with Sandra Bullock whom I adore. However times have changed and now I like Abby on NCSI.  Yes she is weird but change is GOOD buy now we are talking about T.V. shows. maybe ANOTHER poll?
You have to appreciate 'Hackers' though? I liked the 'net' because she did what I would love to do, shut myself off from all this mahem and order a pizza to be delivered without moving a step. And she got paid a fortune.. feeling quite under privilaged now!Swordfish was prity cool as well. Again its all stupid but you wish it was that easy. I really liked "War Games" with Matthew Broderick. If you haven't seen it, it's about this kid that hacks into a top secret military computer. The kid starts playing games on the computer and the computer starts world war III. It's really amazing, watching that movie and REALIZING how far computer technology has come since 1983.

I saw this really horrible movie about computers. It was called "New World Disorder". I caught it late one night on HBO. It starred Rutger HAUER and Andrew McCarthy. It's one of those movies that are so bad that they become funny. If you like computers, you should check it out - you'll get a few laughs out of it.I suppose you COULD argue that the 'terminator' films were comp related... may be.

I almost had a virut infection once but my pc tolls firewall+ (witch block apps from modifying apps) stopped it from doing anything before it could harm me  .

I think you have the wrong impression of Virut. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymorphic_codeWhat if were not really sure?  I know that I constinlly get new pages at times on IE.On my computer?.....or someone elses' that I was working on?

I think the worst for me was a worm (don't know the exact name).
I did a fresh install of Windows XP on my mom's computer and she had a dial-up connection and she was not behind a hardware firewall...

The installation CD that came with her computer is plain Windows XP Home CD, without any service packs....Security Center (with Windows Firewall) for Windows XP didn't come until Service Pack 2 was released...

So we've got here, a fresh Windows XP Home installation, with a BASIC 56k modem connection with no firewall enabled.......

After the installation was complete (several times), as soon as I connected to the internet to get the XP updates, within seconds the computer automatically restarted because of a worm infecting the system as a result of having no firewall enabled....I reinstalled multiple times until I figured out that a worm was messing up the works...The solution:  Reinstall XP, and BEFORE connecting to the internet for updates..Install a third-party firewall, temporarily........I used PC TOOLS firewall, until Service Pack 2 (at least) was installed.

Once the PC TOOLS firewall was installed, I could get the updates no problem.....I know I could have installed Service Pack 2 from an installation ISO, but I didn't have an option to make a CD, at the time.

being behind a router solves that whole problem, as well, BlockHead. Quote from: blockHEAD on June 23, 2009, 10:51:51 PM

at the same time a software firewall is easily circumvented by trojans that do manage to get on. a hardware firewall isn't.

ok, so next time this happens and the software firewall doesn't work, I'll consider either a hardware firewall or having Service Pack 2 (minimum) ready on a CD, after the installation is complete..........that is, if windows firewall is up to the task  So far I can say that I had a TSR on my Gaming PC when I was still new with it.TSR's aren't necessarily bad... Not to mention they haven't existed since pure DOS...my machine wouldnt have stopped rebooting, as much as I know.I intentionally downloaded Antivirus 2009.  I was reformatting my pc in a few minutes, so I thought what the heck, LETS see what it does.  Turns out when I installed it and restarted, it deleted a file that was needed for windows to boot.  I can't remember the file, but it WAS important!  hahaI can't remember the exact name because it's no-longer in my quarantine. It was some sort of adware, malicious pile of garbage. Every 5mins or so it would bring up a little box just above the notification area saying that I had not completed registration/paid a bill...

Billsystem something it was called now I think. And the box would not go away, you clicked on the little x on the top right then a pop came up on your screen saying pay this money now Blah blah. I phoned Norton and they were so kind to offer me a £49 charge to remove it... love those guy's. 2 day's later I updated Norton and it got automatically removed. Cheeky so and so's!

Yes, he's responsible for the choices he made throughout his life, and only a handful of people know if the charges made against him are true.  I don't have him up for sainthood, or anything like that...but most of us would do well to be able to use our talents to a fraction of the extent to which he used his.

I really hope that she doesn't have to spend the rest of her life being 'studied'.

Yes, as far as I know because her cells can only live for so long they die and now cells are made using MITOSIS, now if these weren't dying and therfore no new cells were being replicated she would have cancer (because mitosis repairs the cells) and cancer is any abnormality in the number of new cells being produced.Your assuming the rest of her doesn't age Irish, they said she has the skeleton that appears to be aged to about that of a ten year old. So she IS aging. Something ain't right there.....  Is this a hoax?Paud, your too dismissive, thinking anything too bizarre isn't true. Things do exist beyond our realm of UNDERSTANDING, most people just refuse to accept that.I'll beleive it when scientists figure it out and deem it true for me!That sounds reminiscent of the Catholic church and Galileo's views of the solar system.

Solve : Filipino inmates in 'Thriller' video stage tribute?

Answer»

In the news, but not really computer news (hence being in 'Off Topic'), the same group of Filipino inmates who performed "Thriller" 2 years ago got together again in an encore PERFORMANCE to pay tribute to Michael Jackson, who you all know passed away a few days ago. Before anyone goes knocking their performance, think about this: Why don't you try choreographing 1,500 inmates?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090627/ap_on_en_mu/as_michael_jackson_dancing_inmates
Quote

CEBU, Philippines – The Filipino inmates who shot to global fame with a YouTube video of their "Thriller" dance swayed and stomped again Saturday in a behind-bars tribute to their idol, Michael Jackson.

After being told of Jackson's death Thursday in Los Angeles, the 1,500 inmates at the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center hit the exercise yard, practicing for nine hours Friday night — and into the wee hours of Saturday morning — for the show. They took breaks only to eat or when it rained, said professional choreographer Gwendolyn Lador, hired by the prison to teach the inmates the dance.

"I felt sad because we lost our idol," said inmate Wenjiel Resane, who PLAYS the role of Jackson's girlfriend in the video.

Crisanto Nieri, 38, was feeling a little extra stress. He danced Jackson's part in "Thriller."

"Even as a kid, he was already my idol," said Nieri, who is serving seven years on drug charges. "I am happy that our video became famous, but I feel some pressure to perform well."

A crowd of 700 Cebuanos and foreign tourists watched the performance from a second-floor corridor, swaying to the music and applauding as the inmates, dressed in orange prison T-shirts and sweat pants, stomped and clapped in unison in the hilltop prison, behind thick stone walls topped by electrified razor wire.

Other numbers included "Ben," "I'll Be There" and "We Are the World." The inmates then held up a 5-by-10 foot (1.5-by-3 meter) tarpaulin showing Michael Jackson holding a sword with his name WRITTEN below it.

Others waved the flags of the Philippines and other nations.

Before the show, the performers dedicated a prayer to Jackson's family.

"I was sad because one of the songs of Michael Jackson, `Thriller,' made us famous around the world," said Francis Mercader, 36, who has spent a year in detention while on trial for drug charges.

Byron Garcia, the Cebu provincial security consultant who came up with the idea of adding synchronized dancing to poorly attended exercise sessions, said he was surprised by the popularity of the 2007 video — one of more than a dozen inmate dance numbers he has posted on YouTube.

"Thriller" has attracted 24.3 million hits since it was posted two years ago, with nearly a million of them in the 24 hours since news of Jackson's death spread.

The inmates "consider Michael Jackson as a god here," Garcia said. "If not for Michael Jackson, they would not have this international recognition."

"The fame brought them back their self-esteem," he told reporters. "So that's why we have these public performances."

Inmate Alfredo Gaballo, 52, says Jackson "inspired us, so we are all sad about his death."

"The performance today has been amazing," said Karen Benrad, 29, from London. She and about two dozen foreign and local tourists later joined the inmates at the prison quadrangle, dancing to the tune of "Macarena" and "I just can't get enough."

Kim Hua-sung, a 23-year-old South Korean student in Cebu who watched the inmates' performance, said he is also a Jackson fan. "I'm sad that I can't listen to more songs from him."

In Taiwan, two top Michael Jackson impersonators donned fedora hats and sequined outfits Saturday, moonwalking to "Billie Jean" in their own tribute to the pop star.

Thirty-year-old Wang Chih-wei told The Associated Press he secured a photo op with his idol during Jackson's WHIRLWIND tour in 1993 after winning an impersonation contest.

"I didn't know much English so I could only tell him, 'I love you,'" Wang said. "He was very friendly. I melted when he put his hand on my shoulder for the photo."

Why don't you try choreographing 1,500 inmates?


There's two reasons really.

1. I don't want to GO to jail.
2. I think they would call it a riot.

Solve : Well it's up to you?

Answer»

Try this a friend just gave me this info but I'm not to sure.

1. If you lock yourself out out of your car, and the key's are in your car. You have a spare SET at home, call someone mobile to mobile who can get your spare set of key's. Hold your mobile 12inc from your car door and get your friend to press the unlock button into there mobile even if your 500 miles away, your phone will transmit the signal and opens your car.

2. (May be only in England this one) If you are ever forced to remove money from a cash machine by a robber. Type in your pin backwards which immediately calls the police secretly to your exact location.


Let me know if this can be done 



No.

1. The first one won't work, because the device works by Remote- not by sound. Otherwise a thief could just simulate the beeping noise- or for that matter, use their own unlocker tool to unlock any car.

2. That just doesn't make any SENSE. May as well, have it say, "insert the first prime number after the square root of your pin number". completely arbitrary. additionally you have only one PIN number- if you put it in backwards, that means you have two (the backwards one as well as your standard forward one). And lastly- the bank would outline this as a security feature if it existed. Why implement a feature and never tell anybody? Definitely a wasted EFFORT.

Yeah I get that. But Most of these remotes communicate to their respective devices via infrared (IR) signals and a few via radio signals.

So how many variables are there in every 'card number' in the world followed by every 'PIN' number in the world reversed against the COMMON variable. I think about the same number of probabilities out there today.Sorry I forgot to break up the quote  I just tested this...i inserted my PIN # backwards and 50 feet away my car door unlocked...

Patio's reply is not only clever but hilarious! I know JOKE writers that wrote for the old laugh in show and J. Leno who couldn't have done better.Try this.

With your car keys, stand out of range of the car. Now point the remote to your temple/head and press Unlock.
You will find that the range of your remote has almost doubled.I know one like that...

Solve : Beware of falling power supplies?

Answer»

Alright, so, yesterday, there I was, on my laptop, went to shift because the thing was roasting my legs. When I did, I accidentally bumped it off my lap, it fell, hit the floor,. The laptop was perfectly fine until a 230W AOpen power SUPPLY fell out of my TV stand above it and smashed the life out of my poor laptop's LCD panel. So, yeah, just a heads up, watch out for falling power supplies, there lethal. Here's a webcam photo of the damage, not the greatest quality, but you get the, uh, picture. (No pun intended)



The good news of this is that my warranty is still good for roughly two years, so dell is sending a box (coffin) so I can ship the laptop off to who knows where and have it fixed. Maybe they'll screw up and throw in a LCD that actually supports a refresh rate higher than 60Hz, man that flicker kills my eyes. Thankfully, the outer coating was not ruptured, so its not going to leak the liquid goo out everywhere. Back in like, the tenth grade, I saw this freshman's school issue dell latitude D620 get its screen busted while squished down in her book bag. Oh man, the liquid crap oozed everywhere, ruined books, the laptop, and even the book bag its self. I'm pretty sure that stuff is quite poisonous too.mmmm....

liquid crap....


 

if it was somebody elses laptop, that would have been funny.

Falls to the ground. OMG! Oh, phew, it's fine.

look up to see power supply teetering.

"OMG! NOOOOO"

*slow motion of power supply falling.*

*hits laptop*

"hmm, I probably should have tried to grab it in mid-air..."

... for falling power supplies

Check again, maybe it says failing power supply.That sucks!!  ROFL geekyou making fun of people again?  What do you mean?  It was just funny how geek said are you shure the warrenty didnt say failing power supplys instead of falling ones-- I said nothing -- Ya DONT get all ''sugared up'' like ivyOkay, now I'm staying out of this.

Solve : US beats Spain 2:0 in Confederation Cup?

Answer»

They pulled quiet a stunt.
They barely made it out of their group, and today they beat Spain, which was unbeaten in 35 straight international games (matching FIFA record set by BRAZIL in '90s).
Nice job I was watching about 33 minutes into it and Spain was up 1=0...
But their defense was superb.
I didn't expect this final.

Thanx for spoiling it....What do you mean, Spain was up 1:0? Did you mean down?
I'm sorry for spoiling it, but it was done before to me (Barca vs ManU)It's just football...   Wanna be banned? 10= 9= 8= 7=.....

Solve : This is cool - Babyglow to Detect Fever in Baby?

Answer» http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/06/19/babyglow-to-detect-fever-in-baby/

First time parents are naturally more anxious and worried about their baby as they do not have the EXPERIENCE of having brought up a child previously. It is particularly worrying when a child gets SICK as a fever, for instance, could lead to brain damage if not detected and the temperature brought down. The indispensable household thermometer aside, Chris Ebejer has come up with a line of baby clothing that changes color according to a baby’s body temperature. This should reassure parents who want to keep a watchful eye on the FEVERISH baby but FEAR that they may not do enough due to exhaustion or lapse of attention.

Babyglow clothing comes in blue, pink, and pastel green COLORS. The original color will turn white whenever the baby’s temperature rises past 37 degrees Celsius. Ebejer spent £700,000 to research and develop the revolutionary pigments which have been embedded into the fabric of Babyglow. Though Ebejer claims that the clothing could save lives, first time parents should consider it as an additional or supplementary tool in monitoring their child’s temperature rather than the main device.

Admin edit: Removed link to image since site is no longer allowing outside pages to show image.they did that thing with cars too...it changes colour depending in temperature...the front end is almost always the hotter colour though because of the engine.I think this is a more practical application of the car idea.Car idea is designed only for hot guys like myself Quote
