If you have the tools it's possible to crimp one plug to both ends of a loop of wire, so that the port's own send and receive lines are joined. This confuses a router even more than a loop between two ports.
In the top-right corner of this page is an advert* for the following site: http://mmorpged.net/eve/ ** IT IS A SCAM...but I don't know where to report it to. * for those of you not blocking ads.

If you go to that crazy page and read, it talks about "owning your server", "leveling" and "if you just want the ISK for your mount". NONE OF THESE APPLY TO EVE. EVE is a one server game, your character doesn't "level up" and you don't buy a "mount" with lots of currency. The page is a copy of another advert scam page, and they haven't even made it match the game they are scamming for, more than changing the currency. It even says "strategies that [...] make kama for you!". Kama is the currency from the Dofus, which unsuprisingly they ALSO have a page for: http://www.mmorpged.net/dofus/
The Everquest 2 page on the same site is better: http://www.mmorpged.net/everquest2/ It says "all you have to do is take the link here to order your copy of EVE Ultimate gold Guide." (whoops, wrong game) and if you click the order link it invoices you for "Lord of the Rings Online Gold Guide". Clever.
Now, does anyone know where I could report it to google (ads) as a scam?
I would ignore you, as you're anonymous and probably a troll, but just in case you really think like that and return to read replies:
No emulation, everything 32-bit does run natively as 32-bit on "Windows x64" (for x86-64). This isn't true for "Windows 64-bit" (for Itanium), which is completely different to Windows x64, despite the incredibly similar name.
The only differences between XP and x64 for me are: I can run 64-bit software I can't run 16-bit software, except in dosbox. This means 16-bit programs for Windows 95 are completely unrunable. As most Windows-95 programs were 32-bit, this isn't a common problem. I need 64-bit versions of drivers, antivirus and explorer plugins. These are available, so no problem. The system can address more than ~3.5GB of ram, and can share it all between 32-bit programs (which can normally only address 2GB each). 32-bit programs marked as "Large Address Aware" (/3GB support) get access to 4GB of ram instead of the usual 2GB (or the 3GB they'd normally get with the/3GB boot.ini switch).
Addendum: Saying "SKU number" is likely incorrect, as MS uses alpha-numeric SKU codes, not purely numeric codes. It wouldn't be redundant even if it was correct, as SKUs can be anything.
Specifically, it's something that can identify a single product. It could be a book title with print year, for example. Or it could be a seemingly random series of letters and/or numbers, like an ISBN or UPC.
They are normally alpha-numeric, with each short section of the code meaning various manufacturer-specific things. Black computer parts often get a "B" on the end of the code, for example.
There is no convention what-so-ever, so "some kind of identifier" is as specific as you can be.
1. I just copied what he wrote. I think they're a US thing, I haven't heard of them here. 2. Surely these would just replace the Neilen boxes, making the whole point redundant.
My projector has a video cable going to the front of the room, so that my wii (and everything else, via switchbox) is near the sensor bar and sound system. My speakers are stuck to the wall either side of the image with removable stick things (sub on the floor), and the sensor bar is on a pair of picture hooks.
Works really nicely. Nothing like house of the dead with lifesize zombies.:)
The correct way to handle it is to have a "suggestions" query that the client chooses to make, either by http (e.g. googling) or by an extension to DNS.
3 would be very difficult to do. You're not going to get the major labels to willingly support something that's going to phase them out, and without the major labels you're not going to become popular. You'd also have a lot of problems convincing major labels to go DRM-free. They're slowly doing it now, but they're cautious, and wouldn't do it for a new upstart if they haven't already.
You complain about HL2 being brown and grey and then praise the aesthetics of Gears? You do realise that Gears is the ultimate in brown-and-grey technology? Right?
Any specific programs? I've been using XP x64 on my gaming PC for years (4 I think). Apart from "Overlord", all games and programs I've tried ran fine (excepting 16-bit programs of course). Overlord ran fine after cracking it.
IA64 is Intel's Itanium chips only, and is a completely different and incompatible "64-bit" chip to your AMD X2. If you are using an AMD X2, you're on x64 (according to Microsoft), x86-64 or AMD64. Intel calls it EMT64 or Intel64.
Slashdot Mirror
Make a double-slot card that goes in two 16x slots if you need 32x?
The only problem with that is almost all boards with multiple 16x sockets have them with a 1x socket in between...

I was surprised when I found you could set 7 to "Windows Classic" theme, aka Windows 2000. I'm sure they were taking that out...
Damn I wish I hadn't run out of mod points last night.
Mod parent up.
XP Pro supported 2 processors, so for most people that would be fine (assuming most people have single or dual-core CPUs, not quad-core).
See here: http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/highlights/multicore.mspx
Windows XP Professional can support up to two processors regardless of the number of cores on the processor.
XP will run on a 2x quad core machine or even more powerful, as long as it is not more than two physical cpus.
To back up Freon, I've been using XP x64 since its release, as my primary (home, gaming) OS.
There are no driver issues. Even my no-name webcam works.
It means that they didn't need to stitch them into one DNA chain, they "just mixed them".
That's quite important.
Addendum:
Saying "SKU number" is likely incorrect, as MS uses alpha-numeric SKU codes, not purely numeric codes. It wouldn't be redundant even if it was correct, as SKUs can be anything.
For examples of MS's SKU codes:
scan and ebuyer.
Both have the MS SKU code of "79G-00007", so it's the exact same product, being sold by two different stores.
Along with:
scan
ebuyer
SKU: W87-01076
and: ... that covers all of the first group characters as possibly being alpha.
scan
(apparently not sold on ebuyer)
SKU: 9QA-01757
Does that help?
You've already said what it is yourself.
"some kind of identifier".

Manufacturer-specific.
Indeed, you could also identify SKUs with words, or barcodes.

Or you could sign up for a Neilson box yourself...
Cells are transparent, the light goes right through to the correct side.
It does blur our vision slightly though.
I'm pretty sure they could manage to press the delete key and then enter on your important documents (shift-delete if they're really good).
Or hold backspace on your open word document (quite a few people don't know that "undo" also works for deletions, surprisingly).
The card was smashed, but the equipment was still fine. They could test any claims made by putting a new card in.

At least I think so.
