    No one is forcing you to read or look at things you don't want to.

    That's a problem with individual teachers. I assure you not all teachers are like this. My science teachers encouraged me to look over all the work we would be doing.

    modded funny? should be informative.

  4. Re:Not troll, I swear on AT&T Vs. Apple Store At the iPhone Launch · · Score: 1

    I've never waited in line to buy a product as soon as it was released, yet I have waited in line for films.

    Let's look at the film "Snakes on a plane". Going to see it as soon as possible means that the other people in the screen will most likely be enthusiastic about seeing the film. Everyone will cheer or boo etc. at the same time adding to the atmosphere. Going to see if a few days afterwards removes this and for me would make it less exciting.

    Killing somebody and dancing behind somebody are very different things, especially in the eyes of the law. It isn't illegal to dance behind a person.

  6. Virus came packaged? on Soldat 1.4 Released · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    While installing Nod32 said there was the following virus. NewHeur_PE virus in \Soldat\is-KVOCO.tmp Anyone else getting the same thing?

  7. Re:What About Firefox Users? on Trojan Analysis Leads To Russian Data Hoard · · Score: 1

    The page included in this last IFRAME contained JavaScript code using XMLHTTP and ADODB (ActiveX Data Objects) functions to download and run an EXE file which was hosted on the same server. I assume it's because it uses activex to download and run the EXE.

  9. Re:Screw you Valve on Valve To Support DX10 With Episode 2 · · Score: 1

    Since Windows is the primary gaming OS and vista is the latest release of Windows, I expect valve to include full support for Vista.

  10. Re:Aren't there laws against this? on Software Deletes Files to Defend Against Piracy · · Score: 1

    Something similar happened to a friend of mine.

    He bought a copy of HL, got home and found out that the key was already in use. He emailed valve, within 24 hours he had a reply asking for pictures of the receipt and the discs, as proof he bought it. Once he'd done this, they sent him a new key.

    I counted 800 people. Is that really a significan portion of their user base?

  12. Re:It doesn't matter on Mac OS X Versus Windows Vista · · Score: 1

    I have helped a reasonable amount of people start off with computers. Even after a few years of use, the majority, if not all don't realise there is an alternative to windows.

  13. As few as possible on How Many Windows? · · Score: 1

    I try to keep as few windows open as possible.

    Whenever I'm doing any design work, I tend to have a few windows open. These include an ftp client, firefox, dreamweaver, photoshop and googletalk to talk to people i'm working with. I close all conversations as soon as I've said what I want to and if I remember, close all tabs I'm not using.

    Due to myself forgetting, I normally end up with 10 windows open. Lots of conversations. Multiple explorer windows.

    Firefox usually has a few. Whenever doing web based stuff, it's normally lots of tabs with the same thing in.

    Multiple windows aren't normally a problem, due to the magical "show desktop" button.
