    afaik its a workaround, not a fix.

    err, thats pretty narrow minded. If everyone had that train of thought then we wouldnt be able to communicate to people in different languages, or use cross-platform software like java.

    The effort has to come from somewhere, and the sooner it happens the better. If not from the game developers, who then?

    I'm sorry but how is the above post flamebait? Any modders please re-read the posts, and also RTFA because it seems like no one has any idea wtf actually happened.

    Doesn't matter if I hate paypal or not, I can't use it, because I live in South Africa. Paypal refuses to give accounts to South Africa because of something to do with the amount of corruption going on in the banks (apparently).

    What am I to do?

  9. Re:Improved Performance? on SpamAssassin 3.0 Released · · Score: 1

    ok well i tried that and it was working 100% for about 2 hours, then suddenly all my IIS and exchange settings seemed to have gone corrupt. Thank god for backups.

    I'm not sure if its related to running the exchage sink script provided by microsoft though, since it doesn't change anything in the registry afaik. And im too damn scared to try it again to find out.

    does anyone know of any GPL win32 anti-spam utilities capable of working with exchange?

  11. Re:names on Exploring Firefox Extensions · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    They last changed their name ages ago, and it wasn't cos they "felt like it". I wish people would get over it and move the fuck along.

    How can it be practical if it only works at 10 Kelvin?

    A very good option for doing all this very easily is to get K3b which is part of the KDE distribution.

    Just note that you don't need the entire KDE distribution to have K3b, you only need kdelibs from the KDE distribution.

    actually, each time you emerge sync after that, the md5 digest will get replaced. So it wont match after a sync.
