  1. Just click "Report Spam" and save somebody else the trouble.
  2. My cousin has one, I played Tetris on it. It didn't feel very natural, even though the key scheme was the same as every other phone- it felt weird. I also am of the philosophy that a phone should primarily be a phone. The RAZR, it seems to me, is primarily eyecandy.
  3. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/saDA483414B7F0000/ You may know of Charon, Pluto's largest moon. The Hubble Space Telescope has helped us to discover two more moons of Pluto. Ground-based observers have been trying for over ten years to find anything else out there by Pluto. They're relatively small- estimated 29 and 38 miles in diameter. The New Horizons mission (launched about a month ago) should go past Pluto in 2015 when it will check out these observations.
  4. http://www.hiptechblog.com/2006/02/20/its-f-windows-vista You only have eight to choose from: Windows Starter 2007, Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Home Basic N, Windows Vista Home Premium, Windows Vista Business, Windows Vista Business N, Windows Vista Enterprise, and Windows Vista Ultimate. I pity those who end up with Windows Starter 2007: Actually that bolded part kind of sounds like windows now.
  5. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ It's not really a cave, but that doesn't really matter. It's big enough for two helicopters to fly in and land next to a waterfall. The cave is located in the mountains- one of the most unexplored places on Earth. They also found a new species of poison dart frog, Colostethus breweri.
  6. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ There's... not much else to say. It's because of a superstitious belief. The article implies that they will be able to divorce. I'd usually discount it as an urban legend, but, you know, it's in India (no offense, just joking >_>). (it just randomly started asking me to register- you can use a dodgeit.com email if you want)
  7. Is there any real reason for the letters you chose? They seem pretty random. Anyway, I've never had trouble memorizing things. I have a really good memory (especially for trivial things) and I memorized about 60 digits of pi in 6th grade. I also tend not to forget things very quickly (some last a few years), so I still know all those. Also helps with things like Jeopardy >_>
  8. That sounds really cool. It'd also be a lot better than other web browsers on hand helds (PSP, phone, etc.) because of the touch screen keyboard. I hope, since it's on a normal cart, it doesn't cost $30, though. It'd take away from the advantage over the others because those are all included.
  9. Did you make sure to use the entire image path (including the http)? The only other thing I can think of would be to try changing the \" to \', but I doubt it would actually matter. It would help if you provided us with a link to the page.
  10. Makes sense, but unless I'm missing something here it can't be the answer. Here's the function: void setval(treenode a, int b){ a->val = b;}Not too complicated. treenode is defined earlier:typedef struct atreenode *treenode;struct atreenode { int val; treenode left, right;}It's the same as another function I had for listnodes/linkedlists, the only difference is two children as opposed to one.
  11. What does it mean when I get the error It's almost the exact same as a function I have in another program that compiles and works fine. Also, can someone explain malloc or give me a tutorial? Like where and how you use it, and if there are any restrictions to where you can use it. Notice from KuBi: Shortened topic title to fix page distortion on the home page. Edit: Made new title make sense >_>
  12. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/california-drive-by-shootings-seven-dead-after-gunman-goes-on-rampage-in-santa-barbara-9430598.html The full article isn't available any more, but this is what I remember from when I read it a couple days ago: Scientists recently found a new place in remote New Guinea that is practically unreachable except by air. There they found hundreds of new species of mammals, birds, plants, and other things. Among the birds found were two species previously thought to be almost extinct and new varieties of "birds of paradise." Mammals found included new kinds of tree kangaroos and the extremely rare echidna. For the most part, the animals ignored the scientists and were not afraid, indicating little to no previous exposure to humans. The only nearby people are an indigenous tribe who would not have been able to get to the site easily. Notice from KuBi: Reduced title length to get rid of page distortion
  13. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (you must have a membership at that website to read it now since it's older than 10 days or something, but there's a little on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Nye, 4th paragraph of Biography) Bill Nye, a hero to our generation (in this case probably 15-25?), was married to his fiance, Blair Tindall, last friday. The wedding march was performed by Yo-Yo Ma and an MIT Media Lab professor. Edits: Title: Go -> Got / article dead
  14. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ The answer? Neither, according to a recent experiment at the University of Minnesota. The experiment answers an old debate between Isaac Newton and Christiaan Huygens. Newton said that the more viscous a liquid is, the slower an object's speed through it. Huygens said that viscosity doesn't matter. The explanation for this by those who did the experiment is that although there is more friction and drag through the syrup, you are able to apply more force to pull yourself through it than the water.
  15. If you had read the topic, you would've known that I found my answer. Also, s.getClass() would return a String Class object, not whatever was in the string.
  16. Awesome! It works! Thanks, kvkv, because I think I also understand malloc now.
  17. I made a topic about this over a week ago. http://forums.xisto.com/topic/33225-google-working-on-own-distribution-of-linux/
  18. Alright, now I've got this: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. It compiles fine, but if I try to run it, it hits an error. If I run it on the Linux server, it says "segmentation fault." Any ideas?
  19. I'm just making random things as I'm learning C, so I decided to try linked lists/nodes for my practice with structures. I have the nodes keeping an integer value and a link to another node, but I can't figure out how to make the compiler accept the structure definition containing a reference to itself. I've looked on Google extensively, but I can't find anything that works.
  20. Oh yeah >_< I forgot the first rule of a prime checker: start the loop at 3 and increment by 2.
  21. #include <stdio.h>main(){ printf("Enter a number: "); int n; scanf("%d", &n); if(n == 2) printf("%d is prime", n); else if(n % 2 == 0 || n < 2) printf("%d is not prime", n); else { int x; for(x = 0; x < (int)sqrt((double)n); x++) if(n % x == 0) { printf("%d is not prime", n); return; } printf("%d is prime", n); }} If n is 2, less than 2, or a multiple of 2, then the program runs fine. Otherwise, I get told that it encountered a problem. I'm kind of new to C, so I'm not exactly sure what's wrong. My background is in Java =/ Can anybody see anything that may be causing the problem?
  22. http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=536 U.S. Representative Marty Meehan (D, Massachusetts) has had his staff edit his Wikipedia page to eliminate negative information and strech truthful, positive things. Apparently the IP range 153.33.xxx.xxx has been blocked in the past for vandalism and violation of Wiki policies. This range is reserved for the U.S. House and Senate. Now it is getting permanently banned from editing articles as a result of continued violation.
  23. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ A Texan teenager was sued by the RIAA for $10 000 for downloading over 600 songs. The CEO of a Vancouver-based recording label somehow heard about the case. He said that he will pay all the fees and fines caused by the case.
  24. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ It is/will be a version of Ubuntu, and it is currently being referred to as "Goobuntu." Google has confirmed that they're doing this, but not why or what it will be used for. There has been speculation- some people say it'll just be for the Google employees, others think that it's to compete with Windows. Personally, I hope that it's to compete with Windows.
  25. http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=590 You may have heard on the news or internet recently that Google and the Chinese government set up an agreement for Google to filter searches coming from China. Apparently, for a little while, Google "forgot" to filter searches with capital letters, letting Chinese people see things that the government didn't want them to see. An interesting thing, try going to Google China Images now and searching for "Tiananmen" (the string in the picture). Notice how happy every result looks?
