How many ppl actually laugh out loud when typing <lol>
Heh, i'll rarely laugh when saying lol. Its just one of those "paying attention" things like nad said. Perhaps its used whenever you are talking about something that isn't serious, but isnt funny either. Its just light humour I guess. So yeah, I rarely ever laugh when I use lol. Lmao is the only other one I use really, and thats used for something that makes me smile, or even get a short laugh out of. If not, i'll still use lmao for anything meant to be really funny.

Weird as hell dream
Wait, wait, wait. Back on topic here for a sec. He was initially talking about how he dreamt that he was cutting his wrist. Ok. Maybe hes suicidal. Lol, kidding. But the lines are simply from his watch, correct? So what's the big deal? Another random dream while sleeping with a watch on? I don't get it.

Weird as hell dream

Windows Vista - Beta 1 Out!! See Page 2
Well I'm sure everyone has seen the screenshots and videos out by now! I managed to get it last night, finally, and am on it now. Everything looks so awesome, but it'll take a bit to get used to it. Thank god I have it before its released, so I can have that time to adjust. Things are...different. For some reason it seems a bit more complicated, more things going on. I'll get used to it soon tho, I'm sure. Everything looks and works great. Startup time is just under a minute for me, but shutdown takes quite a while. I'll post some of my own screenshots soon.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (SPOILERS WITHIN)
As far as I can remember, you can't just talk to anyone through a picture. At least not any dead person. What would be the point of death then? For you to linger around in a pic? Nah. If so, don't you think Harry would have talked to his parents thru pics? I believe in the books, all we are told is that the former Hogwards Headmasters have their pictures up on walls, and the picture contains perhaps a part of their memory that will forever look after the castle. So Harry won't be able to speak to Dumbledore really, he will just be talking to the memory...I guess...of Dumbledore.

Airplane Crashes at Toronto's Pearson International Airport
Ok, 297 is the official toll on the plane, at least 48 have minor injuries. As little as 3 busloads full of people have been taken to local hospitals. The airplane itself skidded 200 feet before stopping, crashing into a rivine not too far from the highway itself. The plane is more or less completely destroyed. At this time, the fires are believe to have been put out.

Airplane Crashes at Toronto's Pearson International Airport
http://www.cbc.ca/regionalnews/caches/p ... fire080205 An Air France plane has just crashed at Pearson Airport in Toronto, about 1 hour ago. I live in Toronto, and am pretty shocked to hear the news, as nothing major (in terms of bad news) ever happens, at least nothing like this. 3 Explosions so far, one of which I saw while watching live updates on TV. Gave me goosebumps. 291 on board, Pilot and co Pilot made it out alive, many have been taken to hospitals, no death toll, no injury toll, no other real information known. We've been having heavy rain and thunderstorms all day, thunder, lightning, as a result Pearson was at red alert due to the storms. So the crash is weather related. They're thinking it may have been a vertical downdraft. Heavy traffic, as its rush hour, and this is just off Toronto's largest highway, highway 401. The jetliner is one of the largest of its kind, but luckily was not at capacity. It was an Airbus 340. Global.ca: TORONTO -- A passenger jet has skidded off the runway at Toronto's Pearson International Airport and crashed into a ditch. The flight is apparently Air France flight AF358, an Airbus A340, and the airliner is now nose-down in a ditch, billowing thick black smoke. Watch it live! Smoke billowed from a wooded area near Highway 401, Canada's busiest highway as emergency crews sped to the scene. A portion of the plane's wing could be seen jutting from the trees. Peel police say the craft was an Air France passenger jet that was attempting to land when it ran into trouble. "An Air France plane landing on runway 2-4 left went off the end of the runway the area of Convert Drive and the 401 area in Mississauga," said Sgt. Glyn Griffiths. "Unknown at the time of any injuries. Flame was seen from the plane. And full response by all emergency vehicles." He couldn't say whether any passengers had been removed from the plane. Traffic on the westbound 401 has been temporarily diverted in the area. http://www.canada.com/national/story.ht ... 6ef0159d71 Will update as info comes in. Bmw :(

I need some computer Veterans opinions
^ So what? A bunch of nerds laugh at Dell, so you won't get it? What exactly makes Dell so bad? Crappy computers? As far as I know, Dell makes great computers for anyone who does not wish to build their own. They have decent prices, and great cs. I have 1 Dell comp atm, and used to own a Dell DJ. No complaints about Dell coming from me.

I need some computer Veterans opinions
If you would like opinions, it would be awesome if we had something to give you an opinion on. There are literally dozens of Dell comps that can do what you're asking. Find a few of em that you like, and post a link for opinions. A price range would also be great.

Ever cheated in any class, and how?
I've cheated quite a few times, but only to help other people. Yeah, I'm the guy everyone wants to cheat off of. So I help everyone out, I don't mind. They'll never be able to cheat in University or at their Job after Uni, so its their own fault. If they want to rely on me, go ahead. Mind you, I do get answers wrong. Lol. Never got caught either. However, now I'm entering gr 11 I prob will stop "cheating" for others on tests. Universities are looking, so I'm only working for myself now. Screw everyone else. As for cheating with an MP3 player, thats pretty easy. Teachers say no mp3s during test, but thats just because they don't want you to be distracted by the music. I can easily record my notes on my iPod and play em during a test. However, thats really, really stupid lol. Whats the point? I don't need to do effort ful things like that to get a good grade. :wink: Cheating won't really help me at all. If I don't know the work, I don't deserve a good grade. Simple as that. You can cheat the system, but you can't cheat your conscience. Think about that one.

printscreen?
Are you serious man? I hope this was some kinda joke! You "clicked" (its pressed by the way, you press a button, click a mouse) the printscreen button and expected a picture to be saved automatically? Never thought about copy and pasting? Lol. You've made my day. Thanks! Bmw

Break-up advice
Kids and your stupid hormones, you all date way too much lol. Majority, not all, but majority of you are teens, and you're saying how you're still friends with your ex's. Plural. The key is to wait until the perfect one comes along. Have to be sure of it, to avoid sticky situations that Tomato is in right now. :wink:

Ipods
iPods. Yes. IPod or Ipod. Eww. iPod. Yes. Get my point? :P Back on topic tho, yes, you can only load files from one computer onto your iPod, UNLESS you have your entire music library on multiple computers. If you do, you can use more than one computer. So to answer directly, there is no real limit to how many comps u can use your iPod with. What the iPod does when connected is boot up into iTunes on the computer. The computer then, by default will try to auto update the iPod. If you have say 600 songs on the iPod and your iTunes has no files, it will prob say something like "This iPod is linked to a different library, Would you like to replace the files on your iPod with that of this library? Yes/No. So yeah, you need your entire music library to use on multiple computers. As for wmas, iTunes will convert it to AAC for you, without a problem. So no worries at all there. iPod + iTunes...an unbeatable combo. Good luck on purchasing an iPod, i'd highly reccomend one. Take note that I've went thru a couple hundred dollar mp3 players so far, and I'm going no further. The iPod is truely...amazing. Wow, am I a "fanboy" or what? :lol: :oops:

So...how's everyone doing >_>
Ahh, Demeige. Were you the one I disliked? Maybe, maybe not. I can't remember :lol: But let's just say I always liked you, for arguements sake. All I can clearly remember about you is that you had some really odd posts :lol: Anyhow, you're quite the...interesting person, heh. Good to see ya back on tip it, and Off Topic in particular. OT rules. 8) WB! Bmw

Virus? spam? invisible files? Limewire problems.
Pic is horrible, as Merc mentioned, you can't see ----. I dunno, but it seems as if you are wanting to use Limewire tunes as a subfolder in iTunes? Yeah, when I'm on Limewire it pops up, but I ignore it. Any iPod/iTunes user should be ashamed to say he/she uses Limewire tunes as a sub folder in iTunes. Disgracefull! Just dl songs into your music folder, and add the contents of your music folder to iTunes. Screw Limewire tunes. Ewwwww.

Internet Explorer 7.0
Can I swap the file menu? Nope. Its quite ugly having the file bar below the adress bar, maybe Microsoft thinks they're being original or something :lol: (lol). As for Merc's pics, the blank mini tab next to the reg is fine with me, its just the new page tab anyways. Doesnt bother me. What annoys me is the small home button, and the back and forward buttons at the top left. I swear I couldn't find the back button. I was so mad too. Lol. Cause I looked and saw the home button, and there was no back button around there. Only stupid useless things like Research and Discuss. Eww. But if they make it so we can swap bars around to how we want it, that would be ideal. I'm almost certain it'll happen in the final release. 1 more thing to add, I previously had a Windows blind theme installed, Dogmax to be exact, and IE7 didnt function properly. It gave me black areas around the adress bar, as if it wasnt loaded properly? Is this because the skin doesn't know how to theme IE7? Or that IE7 has no support for the skin? I dunno. But I changed back to the default Windows XP blue, and it works great now.

Getting Rid of iTunes Duplicates
Yeah, I was thinking that, but he said all his songs are duped anyways. So clicking that will just show the entire library, with 2 copies of each song = no help at all :wink:
-
Getting Rid of iTunes Duplicates
Sorry for the amazingly slow 2 day response lol, but if it still kinda helps, I also had my songs duplicated, and took a bit to remove it. However, you could just delete the itunes file inside your folder, which resets ur library. Then highlight all files in side your music folder, and there you go. If that doesnt work, try holding control down while clicking on 1 of each song. Yeah, its annoying, but at least you'll be able to highlight every other song, and do only 1 clear at the end.

Internet Explorer 7.0
^ lol funny. Well, has anyone tried out IE7 yet? I dled Beta, and from the average user stand point, its a nicer looking interface change. I dunno the security details, as I'm no expert. But I guess thats why these things were out in beta for...experts lol. Oh well, still nice to give it a sneek peak during beta anyways, nothing better to do. It's a nice alternative to Opera to say the least. Whenever Opera won't load something, I'll prob open IE now, rather than having all Opera, IE and Firefox installed.
