Show some effort by posting your code so we can see what you have done. Do what the question asks, learn how to write and read files by searching for tutorials. Google is your friend.

I completely understood the point, I just hate the commercials I have seen for the Mojave experiment and this provided the perfect place to rant about them :)

I hate those commercials. They're so cheap and if the people couldn't tell it was Vista when they used it they are dumber then they appear.

Obama says he picked his running mate, but won't make it public until Saturday.

He picked Joe Biden.

(And using 17 exclamation points does not get help faster - it might just have the opposite effect)

He's right. The magic number is 19.

That post was from September last year, almost a year back.

Exactly. That is why I brought it up.

Show us what you have done so far, such as code and possible ideas, ask some specific questions. When posting code use code tags

I would like to meet one.
Then why doesn't everybody react the same way? Any human being I know who is unexpectedly pricked with a sharp pin will jump, and make some sort of noise. Why isn't this the same with sneezing.
And besides, isn't a sneeze the REACTION TO stimuli (allergens), NOT the stimuli itself, requiring a reaction (closing or not closing of eyes)?!!

Have you ever watched Mythbusters? They tried to sneeze with their eyes opened and it worked. Hold your eyelids open the next time you sneeze, nothing will happen.

I remember (at least I think I do :) awhile back Dani said something about the two servers that host the site had different times, so when they time stamped the posts there were discrepancies, only noticeable if they were very close together. She fixed it then, maybe the problem has come up again. Or perhaps it could be something else entirely.

EDIT: I found Dani's post I was referring to.

Maby a good idea would be to make a dialog appear just before submitting thats says (in a very big font) "USE CODE TAGS OR YOU WILL BE IGNORED OR YELLED AT!!!" for newbies who have less than 3-4 posts ? Perhaps that will get to em. ;)

It won't help, when confronted about not using code tags they will just ignore it, yell at us when no one does there work for them, and then leave. I think that would deter new members more than it would help.

When you mentioned jibber jabber it became on-topic.

Its been mentioned before in another thread.

How about, when giving negative reputation, a message box appears saying "Thanks for adding Repuation to this user. May you be lucky enough to recieve the same Reputation back in turn." :P

One time (I forget what thread) someone else mentioned that and Dani explained it is supposed to be a tongue in cheek kinda of thing.

You need to instantiate choice1 before you add the string item. So change

choice1.add("10 oz");
choice1.add("16 oz");
Choice choice1 = new Choice();

to

Choice choice1 = new Choice();
choice1.add("10 oz");
choice1.add("16 oz");

Hopefully the recruitment posts, at least, are in the right spot.

If you are referring to, Ruby on Rails developer it appears to be. I'm actually surprised, you took the time to post your job offer in the correct area. Not a lot of people take the time to find the right forum.

I think this browser is asking a lot from the user. The way it is set up would require huge amounts of transition from the way we do things now.

Hello,

This is good idea. I am doing project on electronics voting machine and I need help to start with. I am doing prototype model of electronic voting system which includes security fix. Can you help me in some way to start using Java programing?

Bomber

You already have a thread about this in the Java forum where you have been told to do your own work.

jasimp 427 Senior Poster Featured Poster

I still have mixed feelings about the whole thing. Here is part 2.

Asking for final year projects ideas is asked quite a bit. If you had looked you would have found threads that pertain to it, where most of the time the answer is along the lines of "think of one yourself. Your project should reflect you and your abilities." Do you even know what J2ME is? Read this and then I think you will be able to answer your own question.

I just saw this video which is a concept for a future browser. What do you think about it?

If you are going to be learning Java I would suggest you look through the resources in this thread.

jasimp 427 Senior Poster Featured Poster

can you give me tips to do the program?

Yeah, the more you work at it the better chance you have of actually getting it done, and you might learn something at the same time. :-O

If you had looked instead of being a lazy slug, you would have seen, at the top of this forum, a thread dedicated to starting Java Starting "Java" [Java tutorials / resources / faq]. It has websites, book suggestions, and what you need to start Java. I also recommend reading the rules, no "leet" speak.

it's bullcrap. if you're gonna post something funny, make sure IT IS funny.

I should have mentioned this in my rep comment; bool, is spelled correctly.

After reading the comments from the second link it doesn't sound or look very appetizing; very funny though.

Its been that way for awhile, at least a month possibly more.

jasimp 427 Senior Poster Featured Poster

Its been that way for awhile, at least three or four months. Maybe it is different for mods. For a long time I have only been able to take away three reputation points, 7/2 is rounded down.

jasimp 427 Senior Poster Featured Poster

(according to member list top score goes to ancient dragon :) with currently 34 reputation point to give/take from any of us )

He can only take away 17, when you give neg rep it takes away half of what you have for rep power. He can, however, give all 34.

Nice find!

Does anyone still listen to the radio?

Yeah, whenever I want to use my old Pioneer speakers (which sound better then any of my other ones) and don't feel like trying to hook up my MP3 player. My favorite station (106.3 Frank FM) has 20 song music marathons everyday at nine. I record those using my Sansa Fuze, edit them with Audactity to get rid of the DJ, then put them back on it and have great, free music, with quality that is better than CD.
