Hey. look Tony... I'm not trying to flame you or anything...I'm just looking out for the look of the forum and consideration to other users.

Oh, wait. ya it is.... Windows Paint will compress it to 76.9kb. I'm finding it very convenient to resize online, I stick to the defaults. http://www.webresizer.com/resizer/So,Tony I heard about the haircut.Was the girlfriend trying to help? No need to be angry.I thought it looked pretty good, for an armadillo.... Can't you use paint to draw the hair?Lol, shaving it is the way to go ! Don't worry though I was staying at a mates house after a small party and this guy Dominick fell asleep with his face on the table my mate crick super glued his face to the table ( I am not joking - super glued him to it ) He woke up really drunk and ripped a good bit of skin of this face *ouch* then he fell asleep again beside the curtain in the living room and I super glue his head to the curtain he lost a good bit of hair that night....

Answer» http://www.tech-forums.net/showthread.php?threadid=68275 Oy... what a horrific prank. cruel... absolutely cruel Where is the original image? That entire thread made my day. Chortles.With friends like that, he doesn't need any enemies.Heh. I've heard of people doing this but I think it's more than likely SOMEONE pulling the legs of the members on that forum. Think about how difficult it would be to cut a circuit board. Even if he didn't cut the circuit board and just the metal support bracket that would be pretty hard to cut.I read the entire thread, but due to high bandwidth usage the original image the OP linked to was removed from imageshack... Honestly...you'd have to be really gullable..and a little ignorant to attempt that... CH Admin... I'd also like to know what was used to chop the card...it would have to be pretty close along the lines of a bolt cutter...or a hacksaw... BTW...someone should tell the guy this: "Remember...send us $50,000.00 and a NEW Rolls Royce...and we'll send you your statement in 25 words or less..." Think it'd WORK???Probably a large papercutter And for those of you who have forgotten the First Grade: http://images.jupiterimages.com/common/detail/58/49/22184958.jpg LOL! Now watch your fingers, children...At that price I'd repair it. I'd really like to see the original picture. That is so funny!oh my God....I can't imagine people cutting his/her nvidia 7800 WITHOUT sweating How old the poster anyway? HOPE he still have warranty, sure nvidia replace it |

Solve : Let me make things a tad easier for you....? |
|
Answer» To show how serious i am about some of these members being complete fools ...ive decided to go.. i couldn't care less who was wanting this , im doing this because these forums are turning into play grounds , and Nathan apologies for making things a tad worse , but im fighting a loosening battle ... and this isn't a sympathy vote... i wont reply , Reason: Look under my name ..... but im fighting a loosening battle ... You ain't fighting any kind of battle, you're running away. You might have made a difference if you'd stayed around and tried to change what you don't like. Here's hoping you don't do a runner when things get a bit tough in your PRIVATE life. Good luck to you and yours.. Tony... Thanks for telling me I need to work on my online people skills...I'll do that. It'll just depend on who I'm talking to and how they respond... Some may think I'm a stick in the mud, but it's their opinion and everyone's entitled...know what I mean? I left CH a couple of times...proabably drove Nathan up a wall...but Administrators have to deal with those types of issues...and I was one of them. I came back...with this on my mind...I think I can truly make a difference when it comes to helping those looking for help. That's what I want to do...my choice...no one elses. I'm not here to make friends...if I do along the way...it's a plus. If not...no skin off my teeth... You're probably going to see posts here from people who really don't know you...making comments that may be a little UPSETTING...I guess that's just the nature of the beast. Don't let it get to you... I could make some comments, but it really wouldn't be my place to...so, I'll just leave it at that. Whatever it was that made you make the decision you made...need not be anyone else's business but your own. I need not say anything else on that subject... When you first started...we butted heads...but we made it past that. I can honestly say this...you have improved so much and your skills improve with every post you make...Nice JOB! Just remember this...if you're really interested in using what you've learned to better yourself and/or help others...then do it. Stick to your guns and never conform to anything outside what you think is right...even if it's wrong...we all learn by our mistakes. I know I have. All the best to you, Tony...and I hope your future in computers is a prosperous one!Richenstony,I am really sorry about this one. Wow!You were one of the better people we had here. Anyway,wish you the best,and welcome back here anytime friend. Robertcya tony.. i'll miss your short temper and bouncy sort of happiness I'm sorry it's come to this, Tony. Unfortunately, not everyone can get along and it can sometimes lead to tempers flaring. I personally don't think it's worth leaving over, but if that's what you decide to choose, then so be it. If things change, maybe we'll see you back around here soon. Either way, I'll still be in contact with you.Have fun Tony, Did he not leave before ?Topic locked by OP's request. |

Solve : I'm really getting homesick here...? |
|
Answer» after reading a bunch of posts on the forum, I get the impression that there are quite a few people here that live in the Portland, OR area. I moved to Hillsboro 11 years ago and moved to Shanghai China in Feb. of '06. My older kids still live in our house (housesitting until we get back home, bless their little HEARTS) and sometimes I sure could use an Arby's beef & chedder or a real Pepsi.... I suppose it could be worse, I could be without internet.Wow!Rose B. Way over there.I know the homesick feeling. I'll think about you (whoever you are) when I eat my next beef & cheddar.... ok? Dare I hope that you're going to have a Pepsi with that??? We're just at the tail end of typhoon season here, had a few good storms but none of them were very strong by the time they reached us. It's starting to cool down now THANK goodness! Summers are very hot and VERY humid here!I live in Wilsonville, about 30-40 miles out of Portland. Not exactly my neighbor, but oh well... Quote from: Dilbert on October 15, 2007, 07:27:33 PM I live in Wilsonville, about 30-40 miles out of Portland. Not exactly my neighbor, but oh well... Not too far. Lucky you, though, to live so close to Frye's. It is in Wilsonville, right?I LOVE FRY'S!!!!!!!! I could spend a whole day in that store! I've only been there a few times though, since I live a few miles south in Lebanon. Can you tell us what you're doing in China? How much longer do you expect to be there?Quote from: soybean on October 16, 2007, 12:04:41 PM Can you tell us what you're doing in China? How much longer do you expect to be there? My husband works for Nike and they've transferred him here to Shanghai to help set up a manufacturing PLANT for shoes. He is involved in producing the air bags for them. He's signed a 3 year contract that started in Feb. '06. He's telling me now that he'll probably sign up for an additional 2 years, which is fine with me. This place kind of grows on you. Welcome to CH Rose...Quote from: michaewlewis on October 15, 2007, 03:49:24 PM The rainy season just started over here in oregon.... Don't know what the weather is like in china, but when I was in Idaho for a year, where it doesn't rain at all, I started missing oregon winters. WOW you live in Oregon , do you know where coos bay is? When does it snow in Oregon? My friend lives somewhere around coos bay , I think i'll be there too in a few years , so im really interested in that place.Yep, Oregon is definitely the place to be. I like to live on the coast personally. Who doesn't love to go to the beach? Anyways...IVY, it doesn't snow everywhere here but some places it seems like it does nothing but snow! So you are going to come visit a friend here in Oregon? That's cool, we should all get together and I could show you guys the sites. -JDanThe only place it snows in oregon is up in the mountains.... It kinda sucks, because I actually grew up in the midwest and was used to getting 40" of snow a year and then I moved to oregon and there's nothing but rain. But the rain is okay. I've gotten used to it Quote from: JDan on October 17, 2007, 02:01:31 PM Anyways...Ivy, it doesn't snow everywhere here but some places it seems like it does nothing but snow! So you are going to come visit a friend here in Oregon? That's cool, we should all get together and I could show you guys the sites.Thats a kool thought JDan, Yes im coming there to my friend but it will take a couple of years, he needs to finish college first. Quote from: michaewlewis on October 17, 2007, 02:10:12 PM The only place it snows in oregon is up in the mountains.... It snows at my place too but thats a 4 hours drive away fro my home (on the mountains), As a child even i was used to heavy snow fall but at the place i live now it never snows and rains a lot , DUSTY winds , i like the rain but i hate the winds(Dusty Winds )What really surprised us when we moved to Oregon was the lack of thunderstorms. I was born in the midwest too, and boy did we have some boomers! I really do like the lack of snow there as well. Coos Bay is pretty cool, but my favorite place is either Cannon Beach or Hug Point, a bit closer to home. When I get really homesick I get out my copy of The Goonies and watch that. |

Solve : WOW with TripleHead2Go? |

Answer» I'm SURE any World of WARCRAFT player will drool over these pictures. Looks fun. http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/gxm/products/th2go/gaming/wow.phpI've got one of those sitting in a drawer. They're actually pretty cool. If your video card has dual output already, you can have four screens. If you buy one, make sure that you have one of the cards on the compatibility list and not an UPGRADED version of any of the cards. I got an ATI FireMV 2250 to use with the TH2G because the 2200 was on the list, but the 2250 had something different about it so that I couldn't use it. Ended up buying a 2200. The th2g is actually very easy to use and set up. |

Solve : Chat Rant? |

Answer» I was in Messenger this morning because my Grandmother decided that we HAD to fix her printer this WAY. I don't really like diagnosing computer problems over Messenger, especially because I don't like Messenger at all, but I agreed. I've decided that diagnosing computer problems via Messenger is like diagnosing brain cancer with a pointy stick. That's why XP comes with Remote Assistance. It uses Messenger, but, basically all you have to do is login to their computer and start working with it. |

Solve : Microsoft Vista Speech Recognition Tested - Perl Scripting? |
|
Answer» OHH this was funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyLqUf4cdwcNow, I have watched this video before, and honestly, TRYING to get a computer to recognize (by voice) programming "codes" just doesn't work, since a majority of it does not follow standard English grammar (or standard wording, either) (Note to users: Video contains the F word, I think once...) I loved it. I have tryed that voice thing before, and it is so hard!!!I think its great. It takes working with though. You can go through training SESSIONS with the Speech program, to make it recognize your voice. If its worth it to you, its worth the time and effort (it doesn't take long at all). With Vista, you can just use the Word Correction so it will figure out your voice. Eg: (> representing your voice, >> Representing the response) >Dear Mom, I am doing well. Thanks for the gift you sent me. >> Dear Mom, I am doing gill. Thanks for the gift you sent me. >Correct gill >> Replace with: (say the number, and then say OK) 1. Gift 2. Gills 3. Git > 1, okay >> Dear Mom, I am doing well. Thanks for the gift you sent me. ( By you changing the corrections, it recognizes what it did wrong. If you said it wrong yourself, and you correct it, it will not cause problems with the speech engine. Quote from: Zylstra on October 13, 2007, 11:46:18 PM >Dear Mom,So which of the above is correct?? I'm confused He's doing gift...and he thanx her for the well...Quote from: patio on October 14, 2007, 03:35:06 PM He's doing gift...and he thanx her for the well...Save my sanity and pretend you get the IDEA... (Typos are fun) It was just a little confusing, especially when it had to do with correcting a word!Air Force fighter to use speech recognition I really hope that the Air Force is not using Windows Vista for this. Pilot: Retract wheels Jet: Firing missleshaha Hes having a fight with his computer this is great lol ......... CAPS LOCK and at some point he actually SAYS thank you .... hahaha I tried using this , and failed .Oh! Bwahaha! We had Via voice gold and the litle character looked like a grey sponge with yellow eyes. I would quote something just to listen to it goof up.Only good part of the program. Many a laugh at my home when we played with Via voice gold. Never take these programs serious and they are top entertainment. |

Solve : Googles new favicon? |

Answer» Personally, I've got a question better than if people like the new icon, my question is simply; Why the *censored* did they change it? All the sudden, i open up firefox, bam, new google favicon, and I'm sitting there immediately noticing this ODD thing that looks like a DNA strand on my 17" widescreen HDLCD RUNNING @ 1440x900. So when i got a closer look I realized its a G, in some old english looking font that does not remind me of google in the slightest. But still the question remains, after so many years, why has google changed it?Quote this odd thing that looks like a DNA strandLOL...it looks like that. I couldn't stand it, so I changed it to the old one. Why did they change it? You know, there is something with those big COMPANIES, which like to change things, nobody asked for (M$ would be a very classic example).IT'S HORRIBLE!!! Time for greasemonkey!You'll have a lot to play with Meh, too me, its just another annoyance in a long list of daily annoyances I just deal with, albeit, one that I see more often than others.The Story Behind Google's New Favicon Official Google BLOG: One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue FishThere are a lot of the other examples in this article I like better than the one they decided to go PUBLIC with. |

Hah, I'm just the type who was raised with some less common morals, less common these days ANYWAY, IE, a guy THROWING something like a monitor at a woman who did nothing is just cause too leave that guy in a comma by whatever blunt object is laying nearby.I was only playing Dead_Reckon and its really nice to know that you think that way, seriously , though its really not common these days but I guess a few well mannered people still exist.

I know, I'm just saying, and yeah, few people with any manners seem too exist these days, or common sense for that matter.. Which may explain the lack of manners. Now, I said before that I wasn't a tough guy, but at the age of most of those people in the video, I could've (and would've) easily STEPPED in. Even now, at my more advanced age, in I would step, and worry the aches and pains later. It isn't only the cubicles -- it's how our societies have become so litigious over the slightest things...I think people hold back because of fear they'll wind up in court -- and for what? Trying to help. The irony of common sense and manners is that I am more often surprised by receiving or experiencing them with younger people, and by how often I don't experience the same with people "my" age, for whom it's easier to think should know BETTER. |

Answer» http://www.brightcove.tv/title.jsp?title=1438490562 ...take a vertigo inducing stroll along the El Caminito del Rey. It's a walkway now fallen into disrepair, pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, SPAIN. (A six minute video) Scary!!Pretty cool video, thanks for sharing. Quality on it is GOOD too, which is probably why I stuck with it and watched the WHOLE THING.I LOVE walking through ruins.Eh, ruins are one thing, ruins on the side of a cliff, no thanks. I prefer staying places where gravity has a little less of a decision on my fate.Thats really doesnt look nearly as high as it could be... (I was painting "The Rock" this weekend.. so, I feel somewhat fearless) Its still high enough so you'd splatter like a fly on a windsheild if you fell. I'm not the type who likes the idea of walking on a footpath on the side of a cliff that ain't been kept up in years. |

Answer» Quote from: michaewlewis on June 02, 2008, 02:51:38 PM hmmm.... so FAR, on this forum, there are at least 3 people with the same last name of ***. I WONDER how many there are in the world. How do you pronounce ***? Starstarstar. There are 3,603,382 people in the U.S. with the first name David. There are 0 people in the U.S. with the last name .... I found this on this FAQ page: Q: Why isn't my name on the list? The list of names from the census bureau isn't complete. For PRIVACY reasons, names with relatively few responses were not included in the list. We used this data to create this site. Our site can only be as good as the data we have to work with. * Around 1 out of every 10 people will have a last name not on the list. * Around 1 out of every 10 people will have a first name not on the list. Using the same statistical fallacy this site is known for, that means about 81% of people will have both names on the list. In a mathematical COUP our scientists have determined from this information that about 19% of people will have EITHER one or both names missing from the list. 1 out of every 10 seems like a lot.Quote In a mathematical coup our scientists have determined from this information that about 19% of people will have either one or both names missing from the list.

Solve : PS3 Costs $247 Per Year to Run? |
|
Answer» http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/06/ps3-costs-247-p.html Aussie consumer agency CHOICE has put together a STUDY of the power consumption of everyday household appliances and, surprise surprise, the leaf blower that is the PS3 COMES out at the bottom of the league. Sony's console burns through 31.74 kWh per week when idling, which is five times the energy used by a REFRIGERATOR, and ten times the juice sipped by the Wii. To be fair, a fridge is left on 24/7, whereas a console tends to be switched into standby mode a lot of the time. Those lazy readers who need a little prodding should take note of the costs of leaving their PlayStation running: over a year, it adds up to US$237. Compared to this, the MacBook Pro -- not usually known for running cool -- looks as thirsty as a desert cactus, a using only 3.66 kWh per week; almost one tenth the appetite of the PS3. So, switching off between sessions could save enough cash to actually buy a Wii. Alternatively, you could put the hot PS3 inside the cold refrigerator and watch as your energy costs spiral out of control, laughing as the ozone layer burns away over your head and the melting ice caps bring the beach to your doorstep. You choose.This is insane! Here I was trying to help the CH folding team by running the PS3 [emailprotected] application. I don't think this kind of money though is worth leaving it on.I don't like PlayStation......That's all I have to say. |

Solve : If you're over 36, you may be a sex offender? |
|
Answer» HERE UK-based social networking site Faceparty has in recent weeks DELETED the accounts of most of its users over the age of 36. On a notice, Missing Account?, published on the site, the owners claim that UK government legislation requires them to check older users against individuals entered on the sex offenders list. More specifically, Faceparty state “this legislation is based upon checking email addresses against a government provided list. Faceparty has never insisted on validated email addresses and can therefore not participate in this new scheme.” Let’s leave aside for now the fact that the CRIMINAL Justice and Immigration Act, the bill that includes the provisions detailed by Faceparty here, is not yet law in the UK. Let’s also ignore the absurdity in setting the age of 36, above which Faceparty believe - in the absence of any law, or known evidence, or referenced peer-reviewed research - users are more likely to be sex offenders. Consider instead: 1. Faceparty does not validate email addresses, CONTRARY to the single best practice for social networking sites. Since sex offenders could have lied about their email address, no decision based on email addresses could be taken. 2. It is highly unlikely that Faceparty verified the given age of their users. Of course, sex offenders would not have lied about their age, even if they did lie about their email address, and so a decision based on age is a perfectly valid ONE to take. Do you notice the delightful irony and sheer inconsistency inherent in the two bullets above? So why then the deletion of user accounts for those over 36? Is it, despite the protestations of Faceparty, all part of a plan to return to a younger and more ‘edgy’ user base? Is it that, as they said in their ‘Missing Account?’ notice, there was a serious problem with sex offenders and pedophiles attacking younger users? Or could it be instead that, as reported on New Media Image (a UK publication, for which a subscription is required,) earlier in April Faceparty downsized from 18 employees to just 4; removed all advertising from the site; and experienced a change in ownership (being sold by CIS Internet Ltd back to the original owners, Anarchy Towers)? None of these are illegal, of course, and we’re not suggesting any unlawful behaviour on the part of either party. But there are many inconsistencies in the reasons given by Faceparty for the account deletions. The foul language on Faceparty, on site owner-provided content, as WELL as user content, may herald a new target user base. Grim Rita may just be an archetypal chav. In conclusion, we can’t put it any better than a spokeswoman for the UK government-backed Child Exploitation Online Protection Centre, who said “it’s pretty easy to lie about your age. One of the things we’d like to see all sites do is adopt a Report Abuse mechanism. We think social networking sites are fantastic but providers have a duty of care to children. Children should be able to use these environments but make it easy for them to report abuse.” We at The Internet Patrol like to think that responsible parents are also watching what their children access on the Internet. (We like to think that, but of course cases like this one make us realize just how Pollyanic a thought that is.) Then I guess, according to them, I really AM abnormal.....I'm over 36, and NOT a sex offender. Does this mean my non pc'ism (as in politically correct) takes me further out of step, with this one?
