Just to clarify, you do not need a bank account to receive funds, just to send them. If you try to send anything it will tell you that you need a bank account tied to your paypal account, but otherwise you are fine.

Are you telling me to subscribe to that magazine or are you offering to help me because you subscribe to that magazine? Either way, the deadline is way too close for me to ask for more art now. Instead, this project will be turning into a full team based project, and we will need artists then. Let me know if you want in

Guys, this is a computer with a (estimated) 2 ft by 6ft screen, a touch screen at that. The computer is specifically designed for this computer, meaning it must have it's own Operating System or at least some sort of modifications to an existing operating system. The demand for this is going to be very low, and it is pre-market technology. HOw could you expect less than $10,000 for it

Actually, he could always install IIS and PHP. (Assuming he has windows) Go to control panel -> add or remove program-> windows components and install IIS. Then download PHP and install that. I would more recommend that you install Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP on a virtual machine instead.

Actually, for a long time in the UD the weapon used has been used in determining the crime committed. A killing with a gun is more likely to be first degree murder (murder with intent and pre-planning) than a killing with a knife.

No, buddy, guess what: French and Spanish don't conjoin words either. Again, knowing one language makes it hard to learn another. If you were learning French or Spanish you would get a similar effect.

Yes, this tutorial series is for the Ruby programming language and not Ruby on Rails. If you followed the link in the tutorial you would know that

Well, I believe one of the cameras will be used for some sort of video chat capability. I'm not sure, but that's what I would get. I personally agree with having seperate pieces to do separate things, but Nintendo had to do something to quell people's whining about it.

Uhh, knowing any language makes it hard to learn another language, that has nothing to do with English.

Heh, yeah. When I am laughing I usually use an onomatopoeia (Hey, like I just did!) unless I am in a hurry because l and o are right next to each other.The fact of the matter is, though, that most people just suck at grammar. Even the people who never use text talk just suck at grammar. Grammar is just something that most people figure just comes naturally, when it just doesn't work that way.

Knock it off! It is frigging illegal! If you want to host a server for a game than make the game yourself! You are a complete jerk, how would you like it if I decided to live in your house or something like that? It's the same thing! Just stop it!

Umm, as to why these words came about, have you ever tried to type out be right back on a cell phone when you literally have to go do something else quickly?In addition, what is wrong with using them? You are thinking of the English language too much as some sort of precious artifact rather than what is is, a way to communicate. Besides, did you forget where the English language came from? This is it! New words get added as they are needed! This is great, if you like the language so much you should be happy that you get to be a part of changing it!

Uhh-- the Good Samaritan law really should take care of this one. The Good Samaritan law is supposed to keep anyone who's helping from being sued.

I really like Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario 64. Those games are definitely classics.

It was a joke

Alright, just checking to make sure. And lol, yeah, how many posts would it take per month to pay for the dedicated server?

Hey, there.So I would think that you would be able to use myCent to order anything from Xisto since it doesn't look like Xisto has any discrimination between where the money comes from. The reason I am asking what we are allowed to buy is because only the 3 logic plans say they support credit system v3

Hello everyone! I am hear to teach YOU GUYS how to do some computer programming! I did a search and I didn't really see any tutorials here about programming in general, only about how to do specific things. I am going to give you guys a crash course in: The Basics of Object Oriented Programming [Lesson 1] Tutorial by DeM0nFiRe What is "Object Oriented Programming"? Well, by now I am sure you know that programming is like writing the instructions for telling the computer what to do. When people started programming, each instruction was written one after another and the computer would just run each instruction down the line one at a time. This works fine, but it can get pretty hard to keep track of your programs flow, and it can get pretty annoying when you are trying to debug and you have to look through unorganized code. For this reason, Object Oriented Programming was created. Object Oriented Programming means exactly what it looks like it means. It is programming that focuses on the creation and control of objects. By breaking up the code into smaller pieces like that, it becomes easier for the programmer to keep track of his or her code and it makes diagnosing errors a whole lot easier. What is an "Object"? Now, I know in some cases programming can take on term that you already know and make it mean something else, but this is not one of those cases. An Object in programming is just like an object in like an object in the real world. It has characteristics (These are stored in something called Variables) and it has behaviors (And these behaviors are controlled with Methods) I will give you more information about what an object is and how you will use them in a later lesson. Choosing a Language As I am sure you already know, there are many many different programming languages to choose from. Java, C, C++, PHP, C# just to name some of the more popular ones. Even just choosing a language can be difficult, you have to be able to figure out what the pros and cons are of each language. Now, towards the end of the set of lessons I will go more in depth on different languages and what their pros and cons are, but for the bulk of this tutorial, we will be working with Ruby. I choose Ruby for this because it is very easy to understand what is going on just by looking at it. For instance, to print "Hello" the code is: print "Hello" I choose Ruby because it will create very few extra troubles for the beginner learning to program. Installing the Ruby Programming Language *Please note this will instruct you only on how to install Ruby on Windows. If you are on Linux, chances are you can figure out where you need to deviate from my instructions to install it * The first step is to go to the Ruby Download Page. Once you are there, scroll down the site until you see the heading "Ruby for windows". Underneath that heading you will see "Ruby 1.8.6 One-Click Installer" Download that, run it, and follow the instructions to install it like you would any other program. Your first piece of code Alright, so now that we have that boring stuff out of the way, let's try out some code! Create a new file and name it lesson1.rb Inside that file paste the following code: print "Hello there! What is your name?"name = gets.chompprint "Really?!? No way, your name can't be " + name Double click the file to run it, and see what happens! Why does the code do that? Ok, let's run through that one line by line. The first line is very simple. It prints out "Hello there! What is your name?" The next line is a bit more complicated (and incidentally, cooler as well ) the function gets will read a line from the keyboard. Now, a line will include "\n" which tells the computer to end the line and go down to the next line. We don't want that to happen to we will use chomp. chomp will remove that extra bit for us. the name = part takes the line we got from the keyboard and puts it in a variable called name. A variable, for now, we will say is just something that holds information. The last line will do exactly what it looks like, it will print out "Really?!? No way, your name can't be " and the name that we got from the keyboard the line before. Alright guys, this should get you started! Keep watching for the next lesson and we'll get into some more cool programming stuff!

Statistically speaking, there has to be an infinite amount of planets that do not have life (Assuming the universe is infinite) of the finite number of planets we've looked, 1 has life on it right? So that means that the chance of finding another planet with life on it is 1 divided by some finite number. To prorate that for the entire sample, we have to multiply the top and bottom by infinity, which gives us an infinite number of planets with life on them. But then, you could also say that since our sample is 0% of the total (a finite number divided by an infinite number is 0) that means that the sample we use is a non-representative sample so it could tell us nothing

Woah, Battle for Wesnoth is not on that list? That's the first list I've seen that didn't have Battle for Wesnoth on there. Are you sure the people who made this list looked everywhere? XD

Well, to be perfectly fair, the help files of these things are just to help you learn to use the API, not to learn how to use JavaScript. If you don't understand JavaScript very well then, yeah, you're going to run into some problems trying to read their documentation. Granted, you could have gotten more support from the forums, but even still it's not necessarily the job of the community to teach you JavaScript. The best advice would be, as cangor said, hire someone else to do it or learn JavaScript better.

Hmm, I'm surprised that you would give Crhome a 5/10. I've never used it myself, but from those who have I've heard nothing but good news, for the most part. Could you give us more of an explanation on why you didn't like it?

phpBB3 is actually gold now, and phpBB3 is way better than phpBB2. I have actually tried out myBB, phpBB, SMF, IPB, and vBulletin, and of all of them phpBB3 has been the best. As echo said, phpBB2 had a big problem with spam, but phpBB3 does not have the same problem. In fact, I've been using phpBB3 for a while now, and I think I've gotten one spam bot.

Black Sabbath was better with Ozzy Osbourne, which is why my top 5 vocalists are probably: 1. Ozzy Osbourne (Black Sabbath) 2. Steve Walsh (Kansas) 3. Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull) 4. Roger Daltrey (The WHO) 5. Pete Townshend (The WHO)

The real reason we eat pizza probably has something to do with the fact that it tastes good (to a lot of people)Also, chinese does deliver where I am.
