Correct John, and I have since figured it out...firefox was defaulting to work offline, even if I had a connection. I cleared the check by work offline and was working fine. I feel pretty stupid...

I did a fresh install of Fedora 10 on my laptop. I'm trying to get my wireless nic connected and not having much luck. The setup looks correct, has an ip, but can't access anything. I'm not sure what...

I stick with firefox even though it's memory leaks drive me nuts. But the restore session is nice so when firefox does crash I can pick up where I left off.

You should stop contradicting yourself. First you say:


then you say:


And pretty much the rest of your post preaches about how life should be fair. Life isn't, nor will it ever be fair. ...

It is no more unsupported then your statement that says "they make alot of money because of corruption"

You don't want to mess with share permissions too much. They are rather basic and only apply when a user is accessing a file or folder over the network. NTFS permissions apply to all users, local...

I got 4, 5 if my debit card counts(works like a credit, minus the "debt" part).

2 cards with no balance, 1 card with some balance that I don't use, just a matter of paying it off. And the 4th...

Actually it is an accomplishment. Alot more goes into than just jumping on a bike riding down a hill. Riding on snow isn't easy. Riding on snow at 130mph and not losing control is certainly an...

Personally, I find little reason to stay loyal to one insurance company, it never seems to do any good. I was insured with Allstate through college, then I moved across country and started shopping...

Free speech does not give you the right to fight the cops. The kid got what he deserved because this was nothing more than one of his planned publicity stunts. Had he not resisted the cops would...

I'm single, would like to get married but don't see happening. I'm one of those people that are meant to be alone.

Entertainers need to do just that, entertain and leave politics out of it. If I go to a concert, movie, or whatever, I go for entertainment, not for a lesson in politics.

I'm too geeky/nerdy to be able to get a girlfriend

That line might work had you only done it once, reported the flaw and been done with it. I am scrolling through todays log right ot see you are still doing it. This is not about trying to be...

Welcome to the internet.

I took it last year. Wasn't able to go back either. What I meant is that I was so short on time, I had to go with gut instinct on my answers. No time to double check and make sure I didn't miss...

I spent too much time on the sims and had like 30 minutes to do the rest of the exam. I made it, but had no time to double check my answers.

Popular vote has never been used to determine an election in this country.

As far as the live earth thing goes, Al Gore is nothing but a hypocrite. Just look at the motorcade he travels around in.

There are alot of idiots in the world. Many who cannot read instructions. Call center people ask that stupid questions because more often than not it is because someone can't read instructions. I...

I've had LG phones for the last 7-8 years, all worked great.

You want a scare, ride a ski lift. Some of those go pretty high up and you just dangle from it. Add in some winds and you feel like you have to hold on for life.

Are you sure he's kidding, maybe his real name is Jason Bourne :P

I thought it didn't come out until next week? Shows how much I pay attention to movies. I'll probably wait a week or two. I saw Pirates on opening weekend and the overpacked theater was too...

Social Security good? LOL Maybe in concept. But not in implementation, along with welfare and public education. The US government is horribly inefficient. All this does is give more control to...

My mom works there too. According to the article current employees are fine, it just applies to new employees.

If by universal healthcare you mean government controlled healthcare, no thanks. Nothing the government touches works out good. Unless of course you think veteran and military hospitals are run...

I did click on the smoking thread, didin't I? :p

Just because the CIA doesen't make laws does not mean they are not corrupt or that they have the best interest of Americans in mind. IMO, they...

This is a slippery slope as well. The government can just say "it's for the well being of everyone" to do anything they want. Most deaths in a vehicle accident are because of high crashes. Lets...

Not restricting freedoms yet. The law on it's own is not a big deal. I'm against it(I never smoked) because I don't think it is the government business to decide these things. But this law is the...

Agreed. How many people ride these rides in a summer vs how many get hurt. It's not like we see these stories every day.

I wasn't too impressed with Millennium Force, it's fun, but not all it was cracked up to be. Magnum is still great. Raptor is fun. Blue Streak and Mean Streak are great for the wooden ones.

I went to Kings Island 7-8 years ago. Wasn't too bad, but not great either. IRC there was a roller coaster that went off from a stand still(as opposed to be pulled up a hill) like a plane being...

For the average user, yes. Most people want an OS that "just works"

SP2 for Server 2003 was released a few weeks ago.

The nba is such a joke. The refs will not call a foul on the spurs when the spurs do it on purpose.

I played lotr during beta. It was all right. Getting exp through quests is a nice change, but I got bored with too many quests being "talk to random npc's"
