Re: Hello all, I'm Eric from Bradford, Massachusetts. I've been lurking in the forums for a few days, but I hadn't gone in the Coffee House yet... :rolleyes: Well, about me. I just finished my Junior year in high school, I've known HTML for about a year, PHP since November last … | |
Re: Well, the hardest thing I've ever made would have to be the programming language I invented in April this year. It's a very low-level two-dimensional progamming language for DOS that compiles to around 3K for most programs. It can do self-modifying code, PUT/GET in it's little world of two-dimensional memory, … | |
Re: [QUOTE=Chainsaw]anything more than HALF 123 can't divide into it evenly[/QUOTE] Actually, you only have to go up to the square root of the number. If the number is a square, you'll get it, and if it isn't, you'll get one factor of each possible set, which is enough. | |
Re: brahle, just give up. Narue knows her stuff. BTW Narue, did you give up on IRC? | |
Re: > these are exactly the kind of computers being put to use by the bad guys in decoding those stolen databases of encrypted (salted but not hashed) usernames and passwords that you read about in the news. Sorry, that's absolutely not how encryption works. Salting only means anything in the … | |
Re: [QUOTE=jwenting;289593]You're both despicable. You're destroying company property and wasting company time. You should both be fired on the spot.[/QUOTE] Yeah, you guys really are not being professional. Tell him it's gone too far and you're done. If he does not fix your computer's problems, report him. | |
Re: All hail firefox. If you're using firefox already, try the WhiteHart skin, it rocks. | |
Re: No, I haven't seen any. I've heard that it's a great deal of fun to read though; it's full of poorly written code and profane comments. I'm somewhat leery of trying to find it - it is probably as illegal as things get... | |
Re: Sure... ;) VB Code: [CODE] Function sumFirstLast(number As Integer) As Integer Dim numberString As String numberString = Abs(number) & "" sumFirstLast = Val(Mid(numberString, 1, 1)) + Val(Mid(numberString, Len(numberString), 1)) End Function [/CODE] | |
Re: Yes, you're right about what thumbs.db is. I delete them every once in awhile (in small directories) when I find them, but I've found that they are often more useful than harmful. They use some space, yes, but if it's in a directory of images (with unhelpful names mind you), … | |
Re: Pancakes - fluffy but not weak, and not strangely tasting of buttermilk. Ingredients: [list] [*]6.75 cups flour [*]0.875 cups granulated sugar [*]3.75 teaspoons salt [*]3.75 tablespoons baking powder [*]5.25 cups milk [*]0.74 cups oil [*]4 large eggs [*]REAL maple syrup [/list] Mix dry and wet ingredients thoroughly (separately). Mix dry … | |
Re: First, one does not tell Narue to 'get over herself'. Narue knows what she is doing. Two, if you want to write shoddy code that ignores problems and processes a CSV file, just go learn perl voluntarily and label yourself as someone who likes bad solutions to simple problems, rather … | |
Re: Oh no! You're unqualified for your job, which is basically [b]googling technician[/b]. Quick, post "How I sysadmin a com-pu-tar!?!?" to a forum until someone gives you the answer! | |
Re: There is nothing that can be done about this from the technical side. It will always be possible. If you lock down the computers to the point that they can't do this, they won't be able to get any work done either. | |
Re: As pty said, KDE 4 will be brand new when 8.04 comes out. It is not going to be a well known and tested platform yet. That said, KDE 4 has a number of great improvements over KDE 3.5, and I'm sure it will be well accepted by the open … | |
Re: [quote]but, as I use my personal computers for developing open-source software, listening to music, and chatting on forums, and I DO believe in the general goodness of people... I'm not all that concerned.[/quote] Worms don't care what they have. They just want another member for their zombie horde. | |
Re: [quote]Now although some might say that the reason Linux can be difficult is because Unix is difficult. But wait. Isn't MS-DOS very similar to Unix? Before Windows was created, most people used DOS. It worked alright. So about the only difference between MS-DOS and Unix is that the commands are … | |
Re: The US pirate party wants to reform copyright law, not eliminate it. jwenting: you remind me of something from IRC... [CODE]* BluD goes off to burn some DVD's <Daishi> Pirate. <@BluD> ... <@BluD> Hard drive backup DVD's <@BluD> not movie ones... <Daishi> Too bad. <jtwenting> no, very good <jtwenting> they … | |
Re: I'll go out on a limb and say that many of the bugs and problems to do with Linux legacy hardware compatibility stem from kernel development. The driver and module architecture of Linux changes from time to time IIRC. Somewhat disturbing, but I'm sure it'll turn out okay. | |
Re: I learned C++ 5 years ago from [u]Accelerated C++[/u] by Koenig and Moo. It's pretty good, and gets you introduced to the language relatively quickly (it's not a really thick book). | |
Re: Dave, Yes, second hand smoke is bad. No, I do not agree with you on 'supply and demand' for whether it should be allowed. It's downright harmful, and nonsmoking sections are never fully clear of smoke. Christina, Yes, I agree. Smoking is very unattractive. sk8ndestroy, While I agree with the … | |
Re: [QUOTE=The Dude;803876] Dani thinks alot like me (Maybe cause we are both Libra's) [/QUOTE] Astrology is a good strategy for use on internet forums for deciding who you should align yourself with, especially when you don't actually understand what is going on. | |
Re: To say that one is a developer to a degree because you're testing a system is not a valid point at all. Release (not development) versions of kernels, especially those picked up and used by distributions, almost never have bugs that crop up and cause any serious issues. You could … | |
Re: Please post your code. I'm nearly positive that you mistyped something. | |
Re: Yes. [URL=http://www.skype.com/]http://www.skype.com/[/URL] BTW, my skype ID is Toba82. | |
Re: You need to show the window before you move it around, otherwise you'll just see where it ends up. | |
Re: I already knew the answer, but I scrolled down to see if there was a stupid statement at the bottom. Predictably, there was. | |
