Is Freededicatedservers.com A Scam? what do you think
no9t9 replied to CrazyRob's topic in General Discussion
i don't think it is a scam because they have some annoying ads on the site. those floating ads. i am guessing they make a lot in commissions or they are might even own the product they are advertising.I personally don't think it will work though. Because most people don't need dedicated servers. If they do need dedicated servers, they probably can afford paying for one through the traffic their site generates. -
you've got a golden opportunity. You won't find many other opportunities like this one fall into your lap.1) she lives on your street2) she sits next to you in classThe hardest thing is breaking the ice. The easiest way to do that is to indroduce yourself.After that, there are many other ways to get to know the person better.1) you are in the same class - organize study group, help with her homework, ask for help with homework2) you live in the same street - offer to walk home together, bus together etc.Once you get to know her better and feel more comfortable around her, THEN go and try telling her you like her.

There are many people who already hate google now because they are growing too big for their own good. In the end, if google beats microsoft and takes over the world, do you think they will be any better? All google cares about is money too. Just like MS.Just to get into the chinese market. google has conformed to chinese government demands to censor search results like human rights and freedom of speech. Why would google do this? Obvious. They want to get into the chinese market so they can make more money.Google, if they can bring down MS, will simply end up being the next MS.MS has done good for the computing world. If it weren't for MS, you wouldn't be able to do the things you can today. Namely, CUT AND PASTE. This is the most powerful tool. And it wouldn't be possible if everyone didn't use MS. Now, all programs conform to the MS methods so that cut and paste between all programs is a snap. If MS weren't the standard, cut and paste would be horrible. Have you ever tried opening an MS doc in Lotus word pro and vice versa? They look terrible.Business has definately benfited from MS in terms of productivity.

Guy Problems I need some serious advice
no9t9 replied to AmandaB78's topic in Dating And Relationships
I dont even see why you are still trying to hang out with this guy. First of all, it is a well known fact that people like this don't change. The percentage of guys like this that actually change for the better is almost zero. Besides, it isn't your job to change him. The best thing to do is to completely ignore him and cut him off. Do not hang around this loser anymore. Why bother? Wait until you are both a little older and see if he actually has changed before trying anything. And when I say older, I'm not saying a few months off. I am talking years. People don't change overnight and you shouldn't expect this guy to change quickly no matter what you do and especially no matter what he says. They ALWAYS say they can change. It sounds like he already has a drinking problem and he is already abusive. If you stay with this guy, you will turn into one of those women with NO self esteem and be submissive for the rest of your life. I have seen it so many times, women are slowly worn down by the guy that they "love" until they have no choice but to stay with him. They eventually lose their will to move on. Besides this, stay longer and the mental/verbal abuse WILL turn to physical abuse. This is how it starts.This guy is worthless. Don't try to change him because it won't work. You should not hang around this guy anymore. You think it is love but most probably it is NOT. Besides, if it is love, a few years in between can't hurt it. -
Wow. I just got a 32" LCD TV and I am writing this post using this great LCD TV. I got the ACER AT3201W from tigerdirect.ca The picture quality is great for such a cheap LCD TV. Everything looks awsome.I have tried component, composite, VGA, and DVI. They all look fantastic. Using the computer with a 32" Screen is awsome. Playing games on it is even better. I also hooked up my new XBOX 360 to this TV and set it to High Definition output (from the XBOX). Simply amazing. Can never go back to low res gaming... Notice from BuffaloHELP: Edited topic title for better search output.

It's not only google that china bought off. Microsoft and Yahoo both agreed to have chinese search results filtered for words such as freedom of speech and other such things. The big search companies are just doing it so they can get access to the chinese market.BTW the student protest was called dubbed the "Tiananmen Square Massacre". This happened in 1989, so it was a while ago.As for the US... I think they are a bunch of hypocrites (As I said before). They rag on people (china) about human rights but then they go and torture people. I saw on some news program that they try to make arab prisonners talk by degrading them. They get females to sexually dominate the arabs to humiliate and degrade them.This is so ridiculous.

The use of parsecs in Han Solos line can be wrong. A parsec is a measure of distance and since he is implying that his ship is fast in that race, it seems that he is using parsec as a unit of time.Obviously, it can be argued that the use is correct because it is just a science fiction movie. We could say that since the ship travels in hyper space there are certain areas of space you might have to go around (like black holes). So to do the run in 5 parsecs might be a measure of how good the pilot is to navigate spatial anomolies.As you can see, I could easily be a star wars/star trek junkie.

You are not talking about democracy. Democracy is a good thing. The ideal democracy will have every person in the country vote on every subject. In the real world it works by representation. You vote for your representative to speak on your behalf in the governemnt.What you are talking about is CAPITALISM. This is all about accumulating private wealth. Ususally though, democracy is always associated with capitalism. But, there is a possibility to have a socialist democracy. It is having the socialist philosophy in a democratic country. In fact there are many parties in democratic societies with this philosphy. They are usually the left wing parties.Free health care, free education, etc. are all types of things that a socialist society can offer. In the united states, they offer free education but the free ones are crappy compared to the paid ones. In a socialist society the free schools are just as good, or at least comparible, to the paid schools.So it isn't democracy that is bad. Just capitalism.

Making Money Online These two have been paying, check it out
no9t9 replied to mommag95's topic in Business Forum
the reason why they always seem to be scams is because they ARE scams! If I were to join a conga line, why the hell would I want to join one that has already started and risk getting nothing? Why wouldn't I just start one of my own...Here's an online money making idea. Stop joining scam programs and just create your own scam program. You are sure to make money and lose nothing because if you started the scam, you don't have to pay. You only get paid!!That is, unless you get sued. Cause pyramid schemes are actually illegal (in the US anyway). -
Question~about Mysql ALTER TABLE `xxx` ORDER BY `no`;
no9t9 replied to kakingho's topic in Programming
I didn't see that you were using ` instead of ' ... but after seeing the error output is is obviuos.You should never use ` as a quote! You don't need the quotes around the table and column name anyway. Just remove them.That should fix it. -
Yes, I do agree that the US is going downhill ever since the war on iraq. They do not follow international laws anymore and do whatever they want. They introduce legislation that gives great powers to the government in revoking individual rights. For example, there is one person who is a "suspected" terrorist and was held in jail for over 2 years without being formally charged of a crime. This guy was in limbo for over 2 years in a US jail.This is exactly the type of thing that China does. This kind of thing was unheard of in the US before the iraq war and 911 but now it is accepted government practice. I remember when the US complained about Sadaam filming POWs during the iraq war saying it was illegal and against international laws. The US did the exact same thing to Sadaam when he was caught. The US is a big bunch of hypocrites. They only do things if it will benefit themselves. They will trample on all laws if it allows them to get ahead. They are truely fitting of being the most hated country in the world.I really hate to see such a great country fall so hard. All because of 1 president. But... the americans obviously liked the way their country was going because they voted him for a second term. This kind of makes it easy for terrorists to justify bombing innocent people in america. They VOTED for bush who will wage war against a coutnry just for their own gains... They put bush in that position even AFTER they knew his track record. I sometimes feel that americans deserve what they get and I'm not even a terrorist. Imagine how the terrorists feel.

yes, you can do that. you will have to setup your domain to point to a server that is outside of florida and then have that page run a script that pings your "mirror" servers and then redirect to the mirror with the quickest ping time. if the server is down, you will not get a response. But you might have to set the timeout to something like 500ms because you dont want people to be waiting for your site to load. I did a quick google on php ping and found a script from hotscripts that can ping a server to tell if it is online or offline. http://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/networking-tools/ping/ Once you know if it is online or offline, then all you have to do is redirect to the one with lowest ping that is online.

Ya. China is one of the worst offenders of human rights. They throw people in jail for no good reason, don't give them a trial, and just leave them there indefinately.The chinese government is trying to "play nice" lately because they don't want to ruin their image for the up coming olympics (which was given to them for political reasons). But rest assured, even though they are putting on the "we care about human rights" face right now, they are doing stuff "under the table" all the time.Money talks in china. Not individual rights.

Free Shoutbox How To Get Free Shoutbox with no ads??
no9t9 replied to awangga's topic in Websites and Web Designing
The best way to get that is to create your own shoutbox using PHP scripting. If you go for the free shoutboxes, they usually charge you to use it because they spent a lot of time making the thing. Also, you can check this link. They are complete PHP ready made shoutbox scripts but I am not sure how familiar you are with php. Usually, these scripts are just cut and paste into your HTML. http://php.resourceindex.com/programs_and_scripts/chat/shoutbox/ -
Before the war in Iraq, I would say that Canadian and US people were pretty similar and the two countries did not differ much in opinions. Everyone always regarded Canada as the 51st state. And to be honest, it was true. Canada's culture was really the same as American culture. People acted and thought like Americans.AFTER the war in Iraq, I've noticed the two countries go farther and farther apart. The war really divided Canadians and the Americans. Now a lot of Canadians think very poorly of Americans who support the war. In fact, the war has divided America itself. I don't think in all the history of the country has it been so divided in their views and attitudes (besides the civil war). So Canada is still the 51st state but belonging to the state of liberals (ie. the east and west coast).Canada has won much respect in the international community by NOT joining the war in Iraq. The world knows that Iraq war was wrong and those who joined were not doing it for the right reasons. Canada can thank Cretien for standing his ground and supporting the opinions of its citizens (unlike the US).

This Really Works And I Have My Check To Prove It
no9t9 replied to astradamasta's topic in Business Forum
*darn*, I hit the wrong button. I wasn't finished!! This is how the program works (how I think it works). To make it simple, let's say 1 person signs up every day and each person pays $6 (their minimum "investment"). Since they don't pay out until after 12 days, that means there is $6 x 12 days = $72 in the pool. And on the 12th day, the first person who invested gets $8.64 + $6 original investment = $14.64. That means after the 1st payout, there is $63.36 left in the pool. From this point on, someone gets paid $14.64 every single day. See the chart below. The invest column shows 1 new sign up everyday and after 12 days the program starts paying out everyday. The $$ in Pool column shows how much money is left to payout the members. The People Paid column shows the number of people that got paid. You can see that the program will be bankrupt after only 19 days. And after 19 days, the first 8 people got paid. The other 12 people are out of luck. Now, this model is obviously highly simplified, but this is essentially how I believe the program works. So some people DO get paid. It's just that the people signing up later are the ones doing the paying... It is a zero sum game where the people "earning interest" are actually taking money from the people who sign up later. That's where it seems like a scam. You are almost stealing from people who sign up after. See below (in bold) taken directly from the site. In order to last longer, the only way is to have more NEW SIGN UPs. Yes, there are "other streams of revenue" like advertising and stuff but I highly doubt that can cover the 12% payout per day they are claiming. We all know how much advertising pays... like $0.02 per click. The site needs to generate $8.64 everyday for every $6 it takes. That's a lot of clicking (432 clicks)... All the "other" revenues streams do is prolong the life of the site that is sure to die. In addition, there are some people out there who think this site is "for real" because they got paid, so when they take their earnings and dump it all back into the program. Some may even put MORE into the program because "hey, I got paid so it must work". This will prolong the program but does not change the fact that it will eventually die and those who haven't got paid yet will be out of luck. But, we know that eventually sign ups will slow down and as a result the program will fold. It is only a matter of time. If you were "unlucky" *cough*stupid*cough* enough to have put your earnings back into the program when it dies, then you will realize it is a scam. My advice, if you have made money that's great. Take your initial investment and bank it. Only reinvest your "earnings" because you never know when they will fold. If you are only reinvesting your "earnings" you won't have lost anything. Join at your own risk. -
This Really Works And I Have My Check To Prove It
no9t9 replied to astradamasta's topic in Business Forum
Ok. looking at a screen shot doesn't really proove much. I can make a stormpay account or create a photo of a check and modify the numbers to anything i want. I am not trying to attack you personally astradamasta, I just want to know if it is a program that actually works. When I am asking for proof, I am not asking for screen shots of your check or your storm pay account (though having them can't hurt). More importantly, it would be better to explain how the program works and how the program can survive and also pay out such high returns for so little work. If you can make people understand how the program works then they will not think it is a scam.I actually went to your site and also 12dailypro.com to check it out before posting my initial reply. I looked thoroughly through their FAQs and Terms and Conditions. I even looked at some of the forum postings but those are controlled by 12dailypro so it is somewhat biased.I don't really see anything special or different about 12dailypro compared to other autosurf, high interest yield programs. There is no free option and they force you to make an initial investment before you can even think about getting paid. While, it is quite possibly true that you actually did get paid in large amounts... that still doesn't mean that it is not a SCAM. This is how I think the program works (and is typical of the many other sites similiar to this site).You pay $6 (their minimum "investment") and after 12 days, you make -
Question~about Mysql ALTER TABLE `xxx` ORDER BY `no`;
no9t9 replied to kakingho's topic in Programming
of course i will ask stupid questions if you simply post a statement like "what's wrong... Please correct..." Do you expect people to be mind readers? People need information to in order to resolve problems. 1) in your sql query statement you don't need the quotes around the table name or the column name (but this should't be causing the problem). 2) you talked about user name and password... well did you check them? do they match in your control panel? did you grant permissions to that user to your database you are trying to access? 3) if there is no error message how do you know there was an error? if you've already run the query in phpmyadmin, the table will already have been ordered according to the query. if you run the same query again, nothing will happen 4) make sure you are selecting the right database in your mysql_select_db function 5) the code looks fine to me, so it is not a coding issue 6) use mysql_error funtion so that it tells you what the error is (if there is one). 7) And last, I used the 'ALTER TABLE xxx ORDER BY yyy' function and it works fine. <?$ip="localhost";$user="xxx";$pw="xxx";$link=mysql_connect($ip,$user,$pw) or die ("Error:".mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("xxx") or die ("Error:".mysql_error());mysql_query(ALTER TABLE `xxx` ORDER BY `no`) or die ("Error:".mysql_error());mysql_close($link);?> -
Why should that matter? Web design has nothing to do with the concept of how standards work. If you must know, I have been in the web development field (professionally), for just about the last 15 years. In terms of browsers, I have gone from Gopher clients (not really a browser, or HTML, but it was all we had... ) to Mosaic to Netscape to IE and everything in between. Don't even try to tell me what I do and don't know about browsers and WC3 standards.

Having spaces in the CSS is, as everyone says, easier to read when you are developing your page. However, what I do when I am finished with the development, I actually go back and remove the spaces and carriage returns so everything is basically on 1 or 2 lines.Actually, I don't physically do this, there are programs that do it. If your style.css CSS sheet is large, it can increase your web page load time. Removing spaces and stuff can reduce the size. You don't gain much if your file is small but every bit helps.Even on your HTML pages, if you remove all the spaces, it can make a significant difference. I had one page that was like 60k and after removing the spaces, i was left with a 24k file. To the end user, the thing looked exactly the same.You can save an "uncompressed" version of your page for editing but upload the "compressed" version to the server. I cut my page load times from like 13 seconds (on 56k), down to around 6 seconds just using this technique.

I'll bet your server (ISP) has that page cached. This should correct itself. Try adding the www infront of the address to force the server to redownload the page. This shouldn't be a problem for long if it is the case.

dooga, I am only getting around 80-100 uniques per day on my website. Is that high traffic? I wouldn't consider it high traffic. I used to get well over 300 but i stopped updating my site for over 6 months. Even then, I wouldn't consider it high traffic.I would say right now if I leave my website alone it will always generate around 80-100 uniques just because it has been around for over a year now. Right now, even with 80-100 uniques a day, I am still making enough to payout every month from google.I have a pretty good CTR on my website. fluctuates around 8-15% So, the other lesson is not only high traffic but high QUALITY traffic so you can increase your CTR (click through rate).

They will give you $10 free for signing up to their affiliate account. But, I couldn't find anywhere that tells me how much you need in order to get a check from them.To make money, you need to refer people to the site and get them to sign up for a hosting account.This doesn't sound like an easy way to make money.

Suny2k sounds like he is not credible. I am always skeptical about a new guy coming to the board and saying they make money. He has 5 posts and all of them are in the "make money online" section. Each boasting how he made $1000's of dollars.Some how, I find it hard to believe. If making such claims, please provide some proof! Then I will join.
