Happy 4th of July everyone! \

Well you can install Windows Live on a x64 machine by simply skipping Windows Installer and manually installing the MSI file.

Yeah it does that to me too. When I close Runescape, I have to kill java[Caution: Executable File] or my computer won't do anything. (1.1ghz processor) Java does that to me as well. You just have to kill the program. I suspect it is just this version of Java that is the problem. :-k

Unrelated to the topic, but, I have found a folder in my C Drive that's just a bunch of random numbers and letters like "837ys8s03jgir3754" and it has two files in it. Both files say "access is denied" when I click on them. I checked the size of the folder and it says 0 bytes, so, I'm wondering if I should delete it or not. Seems like it's something that ended up there from either a download or such and serves no purpose.

The first time I saw Yu-Gi-Oh 5d's I thought... what? A deragatory caste term, Satellites? The FACILITY? Duel runners? :o It was like um... Yu-Gi-Oh sort of combined with that whole apocalyptic "Escape from New York City" attitude. Except it's not criminals, "lower class" people. :shock: Escape from New York City is a good movie if you haven't seen/heard about it. :thumbup:

If you can't pass the requirements for the achievement, you don't deserve it then. I don't have Xbox Live or an Xbox at all, but, I believe what I said is universal.

I read... mostly things that are not books.

It looks basically like Windows Live on steroids. Which is good, because Windows Live hates my OS.

Wonder and Sunbeam are what my family usually gets. I like Sunbeam better, despite the creepy girl on the bag. It's worse than the guy on oatmeal. :? Wow, in my whole entire life I have never heard that before. I only heard it being called a period. Learn something new everyday. :D You forgot Bunny Bread! :x And, yeah I've heard of full-stop, but, didn't know it was the period button. :-k

Could you elaborate? As in what the problem with using XP x64 and the games is. I'm afraid I need the XP x64 Pro for other reasons.

So, I'm having a problem playing Live Messenger's built in games with my buddies. My OS is Windows XP x64 Pro Edition. Live Messenger was supposedly not compatible for 64-bit Operating Systems. However, it works perfectly fine on a 64-bit OS. It worked perfectly fine in the BETA version, but, they dropped compatibility in the final version (and will for future versions) in what is assumed an attempt to make people revert back to the 32-bit OS. You can't regularly install the messenger through the Windows Installer. You just have to manually install the MSI file. Anywho, since it works perfectly fine in all other areas, I'm wondering if the fact that I am running on a 64-bit OS is the reason I can't play them. Are the games 32-bit? Or is it the connection between a 32-bit and 64-bit OS the culprit? I can send an invite, but, when they click accept, their game window comes up as blank and says it failed. My game window doesn't even come up. When they send an invite to me, it doesn't even make it to my messenger chat box. It instantly tells them the invitation has failed to be sent to me. When they sent an invite to each other, it instantly works. Thanks.

I leave the first and last slices because I had heard that the crust protects the soft and squishy white part bread in the middle. This keeps the soft bread from drying out sooner. When you think about it, it does sort of make sense. I have no issue with eating the first or last slices of bread. I actually enjoy making a pb+j sandwich with them. :

level 1. -.- I dunno how much a I could lift though. It probably isn't much, lol.

Those make me feel... "Wow :shock: ." :lol:

A friend of mine only likes music from japan (I find that kind of racist). When I try and find out new bands for him I feel racist. Do you like political punk? Your friend isn't one of those people that watch anime all day, dress up like what stereotypes say "Japanese" people look like, and such is he? :? I'll admit, though, I do like the rhythms found in many j-pop songs. I don't really delve into that genre (sub-genre?) of music all that much. It's nice to listen to when you feel you just need to vent your anger about something wrong in the world. It's really very empowering and a great way of expression. But, I don't much care for the ones that just say, you know, "life sucks", "I hate this world", etc.

They have a lot of concerts held in my town, but, I barely go to any. Last one I went to was Foreigner.

Verma ? :?: The character he was referring to was Velma, from Scooby-doo. I had a "lol, what if her name WAS Verma?" moment. And, yeah, new teenage bands today are full of whiny guys singing the same song, just with different words. I can't help but point a finger at Disney for these ... excuses ... for quality music.

That's really messed up.

I appreciate it. We are all only searching for truth. I've had my fill, so I'm going to take off. Later.

Why just believe something if you don't have any indication that it's true? What's the point besides a sense of emotional comfort and why don't you value the truth above all else? When I profess that I believe in God, it means more to me than just saying I believe in Him. It's like I feel somewhere in my heart that it is true. That is faith. It's believing without seeing. I accept it. Nobody forced me to, I just feel that it is true of my own free will. May sound corny/crazy to someone who doesn't believe (sorry if I'm wrong in assuming you don't), but, that's the best I can explain it, I'm afraid. In essence, you feel it. You don't know it with the mind, you know it with the heart. That's probably where a lot of the "brainwash" theories and such come in to play. Nobody said religion was easy. Let me tell you, it certainly is not. There are many questions, but God is the ultimate being. He cannot be comprehended completely. I believe He 1. exists and He 2. loves me. (I believe he also loves you, as well. He loves everyone.) Sorry if it's hard to understand, but, faith is hard. And one last thing. It seems that the back and forth debate I've been having with various people has reached the point where I just can't answer any further. Discussing the mysteries that is God Himself is beyond my grasp. For example: This means God isn't omnipotent then. The rest of the sentence is important. I did not say God cannot because he doesn't have the power to, but God cannot do it without breaking His promise, which He WON'T. He COULD if He wanted to, but he won't because it would be a sin against us. An abusive god is not my faith's view of God. I did say He can't deny free will without committing a sin against us. However, I had confused myself. He CAN deny free will without committing a sin against us. It's the rule of omnipotence. He can do whatever He wants, and it's right, because He is all-powerful. The discussion on God is the ultimate good, He is perfect, He can do no wrong is also true. And omniscience means He CAN see into Hell, and Omnipresence means he IS in Hell, even though the definition of Hell is "the absence of God." He can still be present, while not being present at the same time. He can see, while not see at the same time. It's a paradox, and I won't even attempt to solve it, because I can't. Nobody can. Basically, omni-anything is the ABILITY. The question is whether he CHOOSES to or not. /headache.

Well, it used to be a thread about biscuits. I love Off Topic because you can stray off the main subject a little and still have decent debates. But the difference between God and the shepherd is that God created everything. He created the sheep's ability to run off and be eaten by the wolf. The shepherd is just a normal guy without universal powers or anything of the sort. Of course the shepherd can't do anything to save the sheep, but if we're talking about something that is all-powerful, then what exactly is stopping him from saving that sheep? Can we really put measurements like that on sin and punishment? I don't think that's something that can accurately be quantified. It's an alteration of the biblical story of the Shepherd (God) and the lamb (humanity). The only thing I altered was the involvement of the lamb (humanity) being eaten (entering) by the wolf (hell.) Yes, we know the Shepherd in reality did not create the lamb, but that's not what the story is about. God cannot save what he cannot save without breaking his promise of free will. He can only call us back to the flock when we go astray. But, when we ignore that calling and are eaten by the Wolf (Hell), there's nothing he can do anymore. Like I said, His hands are essentially tied. We basically choose our own fate. God will not commit a sin against us. Free will is a very big part of this.

Well, at least the name fits it perfectly. No false advertisement involved. :lol: The wrapping is just priceless lol. :D

This is what I was taught through my Catholic School. It has all been confirmed to me by priests who aided in the teaching of it. God is also omnipotent, do not forget that. The very definition of Hell that Christians are taught is that Hell - The absence of God. God is not present in Hell, because it goes against his very will. Just remember, this is faith. This is what is believed. And sometimes the answer is "I don't know." As a matter of fact, that is what faith is; believing, not knowing. If you always knew everything, it wouldn't be faith. I don't think I have declared any of this to you that it WILL happen, but my faith believes it will. I have only told what is believed.

Which goes back to what I am saying about God not existing in Hell. How can you know if someone has become remorseful if you have absolute zero contact with them? This is turning from a "does God exist or not" discussion into a "well that doesn't seem fair of God." When you choose Hell, there is nothing God can do for you anymore. It's like a Shepherd and a lamb. If the lamb runs off, the Shepherd will follow to save and bring back the lamb. If the lamb willingly walks into the mouth of the wolf, then The Shepherd cannot save the lamb. All The Shepherd can do is mourn the loss of the lamb, and let it go. Much like when someone enters Hell, God can do nothing but mourn the loss of that person, respect their decision, and let them go. God's hands are tied, and the one who rejected him was holding the rope.
