I recommend you take the magnets out and play with them...-kunkel321 (March 25, 2012, 07:47 PM)
If that question comes to me, I'll walk out. Seriously, I have done that before when asked too much personal questions and that too during recession time. If my family members asks me for social network pass of my account, I'll deny, sorry but that's how I play.
Recruitment doesn't mean revealing your personal details too much just for the sake of job. In that case prostitution should be glamorous corporate job.-mahesh2k (March 23, 2012, 09:41 AM)
Touch Screen is hell, and my mom always told me never to play with fire.
On the touch screen point, (i know slightly off topic) I often press click on one thing and another thing opens. I have this old HTC touch based phone with Windows on it. I try to open menu and the first most program link in menu always gets clicked from me. Same is the issue with android, it's really hard to use touch based phones if you've bigger thumb. ( I don't have big fingers but still i had issues with touch displays.-mahesh2k (March 22, 2012, 03:41 PM)
Would have been a little more believable if it took more effort to get off the ground. :-)

lol im on a 100mbps line, and thats telling me im 7.12 down speed 1.54 up speed with a ping of 270ms
Speedtest.net = 96.8mbps down, 12.4up 7ms ping-Stephen66515 (March 19, 2012, 09:49 PM)
We must have the same ISP. They are who I use to have 100Mbit downstream, 5Mbit upstream. Latency of course depends on how far your packet is to travel, and the remote server, but latency out of their network and their peering arrangements seem EXCELLENT. I've noticed they use many of several service providers themselves, so they make sure your stuff gets there as fast as it can. They've really built a good network, I must say. It is sad the company has always been teetering on the verge of bankruptcy. What's great is we are talking rural TN. So, the USA Internet is getting better, fast.-db90h (March 20, 2012, 06:14 AM)

you forgot to upload the image attachment :Crikey, that was fast!

Did anything ever come of the 'DC directory' in the end?-timns (March 19, 2012, 03:44 PM)
I would recommend against ReactOS, it is still alpha stage, and even some of the OS features don't work properly (such as configuring the taskbar/start menu/file explorer.) It's a nice idea/experiment, but still has a way to go before it is ready for regular users to use without getting frustrated with it.
On the slower machines, is Windows a requirement or could you use linux instead? Something that does not have all too much for system requirements such as Xubuntu, Mint LXDE, or Lubuntu, or even something lighter like Tiny Core? Using Win9x seems like a bad idea because it opens the users to so many security risks, and no way to update or patch them.-Krishean (March 17, 2012, 01:52 PM)
I've noticed this change or shift in attitude also, and not just in this forum. I can't explain it, i've asked others about it, i don't get it. There does seem to have been a change in mood or attitude or something in the last couple of years.-superboyac (March 16, 2012, 03:42 PM)
I'm seeing a lot more anger most places I'm looking.
People seem to get angry much more easily than they used to, and stay angry a lot longer once they do.-40hz (March 16, 2012, 04:18 PM)
This, definitely. And people seem to have less tolerance for dissenting opinions, or even discussion of those positions.
I like a good debate of positions. But have been getting less of that, because at the end, it seems that there is more anger at than appreciation of differences. Sad.-wraith808 (March 16, 2012, 05:02 PM)
I suppose if you want to be vicious you could enable SMF Karma-Carol Haynes (March 16, 2012, 12:12 PM)
That will cause nothing but problems IMHO, seen it happen on too many forums-Stephen66515 (March 16, 2012, 01:16 PM)

I've stopped going to two sites I used to like because of what happened once they implemented Karma.
I'll probably stop coming here too if Karma ever shows up.-40hz (March 16, 2012, 03:14 PM)
