Most of the things that wer "lost" in th eupgrade, such as reputation, are not really lost. They are still in the database but they haven't been activated because OpaQue is getting major headaches from everything that is going on.~Viz

Okay, to sum up so ElfoReal doesn't have to keep saying it: Klass's suggestion worked, problem solved. Keep that in mind, the simplest answer is usually the best.ElfoReal, glad we could be of help.~Viz

Actually, because the 64 state computers are based on the 64 different quantum states, they would theoreticaly be tiny, only molecules big. The only part that would take up any size would be the monitor. And really, boolean logic could still be applied to any power of 2 state system, the tables would just have to be extended, so the computers could be used for all aspects, even gaming.~Viz

Couple of questions:1) The PM thing, is that PMing here or PMing at your site?2) Did you right the php script yourself?If the answer to #2 is yes, please post the script so we can see if the problem is with the script or with asta.~Viz

To backup the registry, go Start->Run->regedit->open. Then go File->Export, make sure that the radio button at the bottom is selected for all instead of selected branch. Then give it a name and save it. To restore the back up simply go File->Import and choose that backup. To avoid the startup program issue, use the program startup.exe to only the programs you will have stating up on your new install to start up. ~Viz

Mostly your right, some companies do allow you to do more because they provide you with services like free* email accounts instead of just the mx entry. Almost all registrars provide the ability to modify DNS settings for cheap because otherwise there is no point in having the domain. Some of the companies simply think they can get enough people who find them first and don't comparison shop so they can charge huge amounts and get away with it.*free meaning you've paid for it with registration.~Viz

GoDaddy allows for access, DNS changes, the works, as do most, including Yahoo! and most others. You will definitely be fine with a GoDaddy purchase. Many people here use it.~Viz

These bots (more properly known as spiders) are not rrally capable without extensive coding of maintaining an active stauts at this forum because active status is based on posting good posts. These bots are also usually programs that run on a server that constantly follow links on pages to find pages that seem to be worth adding to a databse of pages. They are actually quite easy to create if you have your own server that can keep a bot running.~Viz

While it is possible to kill the data, if you can manage to put the disk back together your chances are probably minimal. Floppies use magnetic storage, and shining light through them is not likely to kill the data too much.~Viz

If he has extra space on the D: drive, simply backup the registry and save the backup to drive D:. After formatting drive C: and reinstalling Windows (since I'm assuming windows is installed on drive C:) you can simply copy the backedup registry over the new registry and all the programs should be fine. Unless the plan is to copy the programs to the c: drive in which case Klass's idea is the best bet or registry modification.~Viz

One of the hardest pieces of design is actually not the voltage situation. Powerful computers have been designed and tested with a three state system, with 0 to 10 volts being a 0, 50 to 60 volts being a 1, and 100 to 110 volts being a 2, or some large difference like that. THe problem is the logic tables. here they are as far as I have deduced. (T = true, F = false, P = possible) AND: --|T | F |P --+--+--+-- T | T | F | P --+--+--+-- F | F | F | P --+--+--+-- P | P | P | P OR: --|T | F |P --+--+--+-- T | T | T | P --+--+--+-- F | T | F | P --+--+--+-- P | P | P | P XOR: --|T | F |P --+--+--+-- T | F | T | P --+--+--+-- F | T | F | P --+--+--+-- P | P | P | P NOT: T|F F|T P|P As you can see, it is impossible to lose a possible. The only conceived remedy is to make P XOR P = F, but most people who have designed trinary systems (as far as I can tell) frown on that. A four state system is preferred, where possible is broken into two types: PT, possibly true, and PF possibly false. THis allows for better interaction and even more AI capability. Of course, the mother of all systems currently looks like the quantum computer which as designed will be a 64 state system. ~Viz

If anyone wants to learn more about creating a new language, I'm in the process of creating a new language from scratch, using assembly. I should have some assembly tutorials forthcoming, so lack of assembly knowledge is not a problem. I can always use more hands, if you are interested see antilost.org, as I will soon have the language project hosted there.~Viz

Yes, one post a day, if it is a good post, tends to keep hosting credits up. If your hosting credits fall below -30, you abuse the board, or break too many rules (or one bad enough) your hosting will be permanently canceled, and in the case of the latter two, you will be banned from the boards. If your hosting is canceled, not just suspended, all data you had will be lost.~Viz

all a programming language is is a set of instructions and a compiler or interpreter that turns those instructions into machine code in some form or another. any language can be used to write any other language.~Viz

Dragon, as stated in the topic start post, pm Nate with the answer.~Viz

Each credit represents 1 day, so every .01 credits is about 15 minutes. It moves that fast, if you have 7 credits you can skip a week. but as soon as your credits reach zero your hosting is suspended.~Viz

Here's a reason (I've been toying eith the idea of a trinary computer myself). Most AI programs work on boolean logic. Something either is or isn't, true or false. People work on the system of it is, it isn't, or it might be, true, false and maybe. In binary systems, to crate a maybe option calls for wasted bits (two bits per status instead of 1) which quickly runs demands for memory over current capabilities. Microchips would also be larger and slower because a 64 bit chip would really only be able to handle 32 pieces of data. In a trinary system the third state takes the place of the maybe option, which allows for better user interfaces and AI programs. That's just one of the benefits. ~Viz

Actually, Fedora is not an experimental distribution. Fedora does have developer's distributions, and currently core 4 fits that category. But core 3 and below are fully tested distributions.~Viz

The reason most people like Linux is that it is almost 100% customizable. It has the ability to have better security than Windows, but only if you know how to set it up. That said, it is not too difficult to learn to use Linux, and there are many tutorials available online. For switching to Linux form Windows, I would recommend using Fedora and dual booting with Windows. The REDhat website has an excellent tutorial on how to do this.~Viz

There are hacker wars all the time, actually. They occur when a hacker hacks another hacker (usually without knowing the other guy is a hacker) and a turf war results. Then there are bttles between hackers and SysAdmins.~Viz

I understand that they are compared equal by the program. But you said they were same byte. And yes, there is only one ASCII '1', it is hex code 31. But integers are stored in plain old binary, not BCD (binary coded decimal) so the number 1 (not the string) is in hex 01. Thus not the same byte, although higher level programs compare them equal.~Viz

How is the integer 1 the same byte as the string '1'? If it's ASCII, the string is 31h or 00110001b but the integer is 01h, or 00000001b.~Viz

Heck, if that's the case, just copy a null character from outputted console to the answer. Then, without copy/paste, it is impossible for someone to answer the question.~Viz

So what that does is makes it so that you still need to know the username? Am I right on that?As opposed to entering:username: a' OR 1 OR 'apassword: a' OR 1 OR 'awhich should result in:SELECT * FROM users WHERE user = 'a' OR 1 OR 'a' AND pass = 'a' OR 1 OR 'a'which should (if I did the logic in the correct order) return a successful entry no matter what.Tell me if I did this correctly please (trying to understand how the hacker could get in to better keep him/her/it/they/we/whatever out).~Viz
