  1. If you decompile/unzip the .gz files that are attached to your computer when you connect to the Jagex servers, you can have every single piece of runescape music on your computer. :) As long as you use it for personal use, it's allowed (just as listening to it on RS is, as long as you don't re-distribute it)
  2. My father's friend got one at 41 so :P And no, he isn't immature...
  3. It's absolutely the opposite, well, of course depending on which kind of people you deal with. I have a very small tattoo which isn't visible when wearing a shirt or a suit, but I've found out a lot of people *do* have tattoos and especially the younger generation doesn't feel "weird" about them. Think you are an employer. Will you discard a person 10x more talented than the next applicant just because he has a tattoo? If you would, you'd know nothing about business (or want to lose money)
  4. I'm a girl who investigates skittles :cry: Wow, I got 160. Nice test though :)
  5. I got 2738.. But the annoying part is that the stick isn't neutral as it gets shorter, it's coded to lose balance after about level 13 :shame:
  6. People did it back a few hundred years ago just for fun even without the monetary reward.
  7. Can you actually buy one, and if so, where?! I don't know what it is about that thing but I need to buy it really bad.
  8. But wouldn't you rather care about how you look now when you're 20-40 rather than 80 years old 8-) If I get to live for that long, I frankly will admit there's no amount of bodybuilding or excercises that can get me back 'into shape', so a small tattoo wont really hurt.
  9. Go figure.. It magically fixed itself :lol:. If anybody has a similar problem, feel free to PM me and ask for instructions. I did change quite a few settings such as the keyboard buffer size as correctly mentioned by Parabola. Locking...
  10. Thanks Parabola, I'll check those forums too 8-) And this computer is quite new so I doubt the PS2 port is fried, I'll prob just buy a new USB one. Hmm, that's very weird. When I now right click 'properties' on desktop, I don't get any of the tabs. Too strange... Zaafara: I'm 100% positive it can't be a keylogger because I haven't downloaded just about anything since I switched to the new KB
  11. Thanks a lot 8-) I found out with process explorer that "hardware interrupts" is taking up 95% of the CPU power. 'Keyboard buffer' unfortunately just brought up some age-old programming related threads on google. Still no idea what to do..
  12. I actually find it extremely likable 8-) If I'm watching a movie but didn't bring friends, the less people the better... I've actually watched a few movies where I was the only person in the audience at night.
  13. Not really, besides the fact that US soldiers are becoming obese at a worrying rate, a phenomena unknown to asian armies. 20% of recruits cannot even enter military duties due to serious overweight, read the source. China and Russia are catching up in terms of technology, and Israel is developing very-futuristic weapons that surpass even US technology. The States will have to do something to keep themselves competitive. Obese soldiers running around aren't much of an advantage. The worrying part is that other hostile nations can use this information to their own advantage as propaganda and show their own soldiers americans admit their soldiers are overweight.
  14. I'm beaten. I installed new drivers. Restarted numerous times. Ran antivirus and anti-spyware. No unnecessary background processes. And yet, even while I write this, the keyboard misses keystrokes, generally lags, and if I even attempt playing a game, it will lag horribly (and make a bleeping noise). If I press down any key or say, write email while listening to music, the music simply tilts until I stop writing. Just pressing down any key shoots up the CPU usage by 40%. By writing fast the CPU usage goes to 100%. Connected to PS2 port by the way, not USB. Just yesterday it worked fine? Any ideas?
  15. Almost 3 years Actually, they are more 'milistaristic' than the United States. They spend 4.6% of their GDP of $8.8 trillion on the military as opposed to 4.06% by the US (though it has a slightly higher GDP but that wont be for long)
  16. And they do use female soldiers, far more than in western countries. During wartime they would most likely operate in battle duties.
  17. Not your average communist country, huh? China on average is very liberal, if not even more liberal than the USA at the moment. In a decade or so, their economy will be the most powerful in the world and they have massive armed forces (more than the whole US population combined).
  18. In my Eyes evolution is the same way that you view religion. Evolution is a bunch of facts bunched up together trying to prove a point but actually just makes them seem stupid.(Do not flame me for this, keep your responses civilized so we don't have to close this topic. I like it alot :) ) Let's not turn this into a religion discussion, but you may want to draw attention to what you just stated: And the above: I don't think religion is useless like the person above you but like he said, religion is not about facts. Evolution has happened whether you believe it or not. Terrorism does happen in other countries too like kindly pointed out, in Ireland, Spain, Greece, Italy, Germany, Russia etc.. By nationalists and religious extremists. It's not a new nor a middle-eastern, nor an islamic phenomenon.
  19. I must disagree there. One persons oppression can barely be an other person's liberty. Nobody would feel "free" being a slave just because it's 'culture' no matter what their point of view is. Freedom is not really a matter of 'view'. Even many citizens of North Korea realize they're not even nearly free, they just have no means to voice it.
  20. Explain With the current US divorce statistics (over 50% of married couples will divorce), it's quite theatrical. Why promise "till death do us apart" if you'll be offset by the smallest problems? If almost, or over, half of the population gets a divorce in their lives, they all can't have deadly serious issues. They divorce just because they can.
  21. Yep, I guess filipinos, chinese, japanese and most russian people are 'western' then. Except they're not. Shadowfax is from one of those countries. I think it's a very barbaric tradition. My other parent, father, is islamic by religion and he'd never even thought of forcing a marriage on me. It's purely a cultural habit that happens in certain countries regardless of religion, mostly in low-income countries with little education. It has nothing to do with "respect". It should not be respected. Do you think people who'd still use slaves deserve 'respect' because it's their culture? No they don't, they deserve a slap. It's an exactly similar scenario of limiting personal freedom, and slavery is not widely accepted anymore regardless what the Bible and Qur'an or any other books say about it (both support owning slaves, but that tradition is gone) And no, it has nothing to do with religion. Like pointed out earlier it happens even in places with no 'real' religion (though the chinese do have traditional religion but it has nothing to do with it).
  22. You can't make political solutions with a bunch of terrorists, trying to send the country into civil war. Force is the only way to a solution at the moment. There's no such thing as a 'bunch of terrorists' who just want to kill people for fun and threaten everybody and blow up stuff. Pure media brainwash. Let's take a look at Hizbollah for example. It's labeled as a 'terrorist organisation'. Let's look at their activities: [*:23wlq86g]They have built hundreds of free schools [*:23wlq86g]They supply free medicine [*:23wlq86g]They supply shelter and food for homeless people which the government can't do [*:23wlq86g]They have welfare and very low-interest loan systems for the local population And yet, all you hear from them is their military wing fighting in Lebanon against occupiers and retaliating rocket assaults (that in this case would be Israeli armed forces who occupied lebanese soil in 1967 and still in 2006 refuse to return it). As a result, everybody thinks they are mad islamic fanatics who kill and eat everything that moves. Iraq may have some terrorist cells working within it, but the major powers are the two 'factions': The Sunni and the Shia muslims. The Shia have the majority and control the oil ministry and everything else which is important, which was quite the opposite under Saddam when the minority ruled the majority. You can't "not" negotiate with either faction, because they make up the whole population besides the small kurd minority in the north.
  23. This thread boosted my compassion for dogs by 100% :lol: But if they like it, sure. Some tricks you see them perform on TV are miraculous for being an animal (they will backflip through 2 loops just because the owner said 'jump) and they totally understand each command they recieve. They're not dumb animals by any means.
  24. Go to a local casino and play a live poker tournament of Texas Hold'em with her. Oh the joys of excitement and rookies burning their money. Bungee jumping 8-) Really fun and it's also an adrenaline booster. Find .com/evrng]drifters near your area and learn from them. It's one of the best things you can do with a car. Bonus 'awesome' factor. Waterskiing, though may be hard if it's winter where you live in. Skip until summer. Stay home and watch a really good DVD that you haven't seen for years like Lotr. Amusement park, 1 day. Base jump, preferably using an airplane. Can be a bit costly though, usually $40-$150 or more. Just a few examples with which you can entertain... And depending on the person, you can just heed Parabola's advice and not do anything special at all, unless you just want some spice in your life and relationship.
