  1. I was about to create an account in here, but I've got my doubts about the seriousness of the admins.IE in Saint Michael's case I don't know how it can "take a while" to restore a MySQL dump. I mean, I'd understand if they had a major server failure or something, but it was just corrupted data, nothing that an older dump cannot recover.
  2. Firefox 3 is beyond amazing, it kicks Firefox 2's sorry little *bottom*. The awesome bar is really awesome and nothing less, I hadn't tested the release candidates but the final version really left me with my mouth open. It uses less memory and the javascript is way faster, but it has some stability problems specially when connections are lost, sometimes it freezes some seconds and sometimes it just plain crashes. It now renders Acid 2 properly so that's a plus. Basically, you can't see most of the innovations, but I'm really glad they're supporting more and more the new CSS standards. I just don't like that most of my plugins are not compatible, but I guess that will get fixed as time goes.
  3. Calm down, It's just a car with treads and an air compressor. It's not even bulletproof.
  4. I am really concerned about the lack of humanity in you, does your soul NOT guide you to new, exciting and thrilling experiences? I see most of you wish to remain safe and certain, not wanting change at all, or wanting reward for your acts. I laugh at you, cold hearted robots, laughing at my supposed lack of humanity. Well, I'd do it even if nobody would know I was the guy who tripulated that ship. I do not care about rewards for after my death I won't be able to rejoice on them, I'd rather wish to live life to it's fullest. And by the way, if I had the opportunity to travel to the depths of space I'd probably not come back because of personal choice and not because of technical limitations.
  5. My computer is my third arm, I don't rely on it, it relies on my. It doesn't tell me what I can't do, I tell it what I CAN do. The only boundaries a computer has are the user's boundaries, for it is no more than a tool. A Man's computer is a gate to that man's soul. I know this might sound a bit unreal, but my computer is that to me, an extension of what I'm capable of. I don't live by these rules, they live by me. I've had the privilege of being accompanied by one all these years.
  6. Is faith tangible? Anyway, it does NOT take intelligence to pass on intelligence. Evolution is based on malformation and mistakes, that by a mere coincidence happened to be fitter to survive than whatever other method organisms used back then. It's like religion, without a bible. Well, I seem to be noticing the lack of agnostics in here! Am I alone? I define myself agnostic, because I can neither prove nor disprove the existence of God, this doesn't mean I don't belive in one, but this also doesn't mean I think it affects my life. God exists, what made the big bang explode? In fact, what created the mass the universe started from. Yep, God. Not a god that cares, a god that punishes people for being bad or hell, a god that makes choices. I call that a god, the entity that made everything spin, but I don't think he is alive or anything. Heres a paste from Wikipedia: I'm an agnostic atheist as you can see, I belive everything originated from god but it is not the loving and caring dude upthere we're being fed, just an entity like gravity or light. I'm ending this thread by quoting Ingersoll's lecture Why I Am An Agnostic: Agnosticism, the civilized man's religion.
  7. There's this theory.. I can't remember who said this but it goes something like: If we could know the spin, the direction, the velocity and acceleration of every sub particle (either with mass or massless), couldn't we somehow calculate accurately where they're going to be next? Isn't this the same as looking at the future? But of course, there is NO way you can accurately know all the properties of these sub particles, as you can't freeze time and study them one by one. Then we fall on the "If a tree falls and no one is around, does it make a sound?". These particles ARE moving, we can NOT measure them, but this doesn't mean the future is written. But "what about free will!" you say. Let's remember there's no such thing as random, just like there isn't such thing as coincidence. Hope you can understand what I mean, english is not my first language.
  8. I've got the following rig: Core 2 Duo E4400 (2.00 ghz) 1 Gb RAM 667 GeForce 7300 128 Mb OCed (The Rivatuner sliders at about 80%) And in 800x600 It runs at a good 70-90 fps, but in minimum with Glow and Specular Map on, so I guess you'd get the same performance on your 6600, but on 640x480. To the guy with the laptop, I'd say you better not bother cause its not going to run.
