Infarction

I always install Apache on my machines, so I guess I'm hardly ever "offline" in that regard.

Of course, these will vary even inside a single country, but here's a few I can estimate quickly for my area: new house in a smart neighbourhood: $600,000+ apartment (~900 sq. ft.): $1300+/mo cheap laptop computer: ~$600 cheap desktop computer: ~$400 and one you didn't list: broadband Internet service: ~$45/mo …

On the computer, I occasionally go to LAN parties with my friends and we've played mostly DotA but some Starcraft, Supreme Commander, and MW4. Other than that, I don't play much on the computer (Halo 3 ftw)

In some simple cases, a console app will simply have its implementation begin in the Main() method, whereas a Winforms project requires the form to be instantiated in Main() and have the implementation elsewhere. So, I would agree with you that it looks like you have a Winforms project on …

Hope your install goes well :icon_wink:

The main reason for enforcing the namespaces is to not pollute the naming scope and to keep the code better organized. In C, for example, there are neither classes nor namespaces. This means any function has to have a unique name and you can easily end up with a bunch …

Different framework versions is a possible cause. What did you and your co-worker each use to create the projects? As to their properties, most of them should not be modifiable.

I voted for all of them because, while a small amount may be bearable, all of them in sufficient proportions (which for me is perhaps a bit little) start to get under my skin...

[quote=jwenting;443465]ah, but what's a "C++ game"? You kids assume it's a game written in C++, but is it? Sounds more like a game which has C++ as the topic/storyline to me, and I don't think that would make for a good game.[/quote] It probably wouldn't sell very well (quest 3: …

Red for me. And price doesn't always correlate with quality. There's some cheap wines that are quite good; it's finding them that can be the issue... ;)

I wouldn't say it's particularly geeky. I have a group of friends from mixed backgrounds (and some are definitely geeks but others not so much) and we LAN a couple times a year. On the other hand, when you have people who bring their own table, chair, power strip, gigabit …

Welcome to the Internet(TM) where Trolls(TM) run rampant on open-topic forums.

Well, your file is currently set up to use a VB.NET code file (see the [icode]Language="VB"[/icode] in the Page declaration?) and it looks for that code in Default.aspx.vb. If you add a new page to your website, and select C# as the code-behind language, you'll be ready. I've attached a …

Underweight: 6', and about 9.5 stone (I'm an American, and I vote for using stone; makes the numbers go way down :P). Or, to put it a different way, I'd wear 30"x34" jeans (with a belt) if I could find them in the stores...

I used Linux for a while, but I'm back to Windows.

Pre-response disclaimer: I skimmed your code quickly to find what part of it was related to this query, and then took a guess at the problem. In the lines [code]sqlcom.Parameters["@Name"].Value=((TextBox)e.Item.Cells[3].Controls[0]).Text; sqlcom.Parameters["@Describes"].Value=(e.Item.FindControl("TextBox")); sqlcom.Parameters["@Money"].Value=(e.Item.FindControl("TextBox"));[/code] notice that for the first parameter you assign it a String (the .Text property of the control), whereas …

We had our snow a few weeks ago, now we're back go glorious rain... :P

I use an outline form, but the amount of notes taken varies by content and how well I think I'll remember it. For example, I had a meeting a few weeks ago I took 3 notes, then went back to my office and sent a 1/2 page email to my …

Try using an ImageButton instead of a Hyperlink and set the PostBackUrl instead of using onClick="..."

Unfortunately, the basis of a good encryption is that anyone who doesn't have the key can't open the file. In this case, the lock has forgotten which key is correct, which means it will assume that any key given is incorrect. It looks like you're out of luck.

I had a friend wake up half-way through one of his finals once...

I was thinking it was maybe bearable, and then the singer started... I'll second jwenting's opinion...

I don't know about HPs, but I know Dells (in addition to having the bare minimum hardware) are a huge pain in the butt to swap components in and out of.

I tend to keep my screens at full brightness unless I'm in a room with very little or no lighting. I also try to avoid using a computer at all in such rooms.

When it says press any key to boot from CD, does it have a "....." that shows up one . at a time? If so, your computer is probably set to read from the CD first so it shows this option. If you don't press a key, it will then …

[QUOTE=~s.o.s~;489757]Or start giving warnings to those who do it.[/QUOTE] IMHO this is the better plan. It should be considered unacceptable behavior to leave such messages, whether or not the words show up or the comment is rephrased.

Start -> Control Panel -> Security -> Turn automatic updating on or off, select a setting other than "Install new updates automatically". It's the first thing I do whenever I set up my own box.

[QUOTE=SheSaidImaPregy;489060] Keep this in mind, if.. end if statements are faster than Select Case statements. However, if.. elseif.. end if statements are SLOWER than Select Case statements.

Back on the original topic... I've heard that the blocks of a solid state drive are good for like 10,000+ write operations, so they'll likely last a decently long time (longer than the two months it takes for your laptop to be outdated), and the power usage is a bit …

add the [icode]runat="server"[/icode] attribute to your html tag and it should show up in the code behind.

If you're using VS 2008 (or VWD 2008) you can get the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit (available somewhere on [url]http://asp.net/ajax)[/url], which includes a tab extender, as seen [url=http://asp.net/AJAX/AjaxControlToolkit/Samples/Tabs/Tabs.aspx]here[/url]. As I recall, this extender is applied to a multiview to get this functionality.

Looks like your 8 months of training is paying off :P I won already, it was like my 3rd try.

Pipe smoke and cigar smoke seem a bot sweeter than cigs. Can't say I really evaluate which smoke I like better, as most smoke irritates my lungs though...

google "cgi proxy" To be fair, the proxies do block several useful sites. On the other hand, they appropriately block a lot of sites too ;)

I can tell without taking the test: my room says "BORING!". There's nothing in it except for my bed and my dresser. Nothing on the walls, just plain nothing. I don't spend any time in there aside from sleeping and dressing :P
