Heat made more than in 2006 1000 dead ones in Portugal

I'm sorry, I know it's not a laughing matter, but it's too, too funny.

LOL, too true, Paul.

Heat made more than in 2006 1000 dead ones in Portugal
Majority of the victims had 75 years more than
The five registadas waves of heat in 2006 had provoked 1,259 dead ones in Portugal, the majority of which people with more than 75 years, announced Direcção-Generality de Saúde today.
In accordance with the report of evaluation of the Plan of Contingency for the Waves of Heat 2006, the Summer of this year was the fifth hottest one in Portugal since 1931.

Last time I heard something so ridiculous was the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children! LOL

I hate torrents. Hate'em hate'em hate'em. Yes I understand they free bandwidth from sites and what not, but I still hate them. They're like a p2p application packed into a file. With all the same downsides. Because nobody seeding the file has a connection comparable to a dedicated server. Heck, 99% of the seeders don't even seem to have broadband. And it's not like the torrent even figures out who has the best connection, it's a first-come-first-serve deal. And don't come telling me that "oh it's not the torrent that does stuff it's the client" because I couldn't give a rat's ass about the terminology. Yes torrents might seem nice in theory but they're not. Not until everyone has a T3 connection or something.

As a case in point, I've had a torrent-downloaded file at 99% for days now! Come on, that 1% is barely 10mb!

I used some 3rd party tool that combined all the bits and everthing worked fine.

Have you ever used µTorrent?Yes. And BitTorrent, BitTornado, etc. Then I got bored.

P2P these days can do all that a torrent does and still tell me user's location and connection and a lot more so I can get the best bang out of no bucks.

There was one post that's in a Weekend Web somewhere or another.
I'll take a look through the archives; I don't recall seeing it, however.

That's your ISP, network or parent units sucking Sup - Both in England and in Sweden, my torrents (legal and illegal) race near my bandwidth cap, with a few exceptions (if I heavily limit the upload, if it's a really rare file, etc.).

Try murdering your parent units and then changing ISP. >_>

I can download stuff at up to 500kb/s, I doubt my ISP is the problem. In any case, I've made my point and I'm not changing my mind.

I used to have more success with torrents than I do these days. Obviously it has a lot to do with the popularity of the file. Game-related downloads have given me the best transfer rates but others like Autopatcher (a patching program for Windows XP) are less popular and take quite a bit longer.

I have noticed a general reduction in the transfer rates from the Gnutella 2 network over the past months, yet the program I use, Shareaza, seems to take up a lot of my downrate when open, even though the program only reports download speeds less than 2KB/s in total. Could any of this be related to the US' proposed national data communications bill? [link (http://www.savetheinternet.com)]

Perhaps I'm being a little too ambitious here, but I'm thinking about setting up an online shop. So I need to either have an account on one of those online shop places or do it myself, which I really don't have the time to do. So can anyone recommend a good online shop place, obviously preferably as cheap as possible.

I need it to easily add and edit all the stuff available on the site but also, I'd like it to be a site on it's own. Not an online shop website with my address being www.onlineshop.com/starworms ... or whatever. I want my own site design, universally... so not like the shop has a different design, I want to be able to change all of that. But I just need something to handle card transactions and stuff...

What, if anything, will you be selling?

Mainly genealogical charts but also other similar related (pun unintended) things, such as key rings. Maybe some CDs too, and as I also have access to the censuses, will also offer a service for me to trace their family history.

PayPal is probably your best bet (free) for handling transactions and all that. As for store software, there's plenty around if you google. OSCommerce (http://www.oscommerce.com/) is free.

Paypal is good, I was going to use that option anyway. However, it's vital that I have the option to pay by card or sales will be lacking.

WorldPay's good for card transactions too.

You should be able to slant text using the Transform stuff in the Edit menu. Just do that before you flatten the image ;)

Now how do I go about getting my domain? I thought I understood it but now I'm not so sure after reading the info on nearlyfreespeech:

Domain Registration

* What is the difference between Domain Registration, DNS Service, and hosting?

This is a source of much confusion to people new to setting up websites as well as to many experienced webmasters. Each of these services has a different purpose and is billed differently. Together, these three components form the chain that links a domain name (like example.com) to a website (like example.cust.nearlyfreespeech.net).

Domain Registration is the process of reserving a domain name with a central authority (called a registry) so that no one but you can use it. Domain names are of the form example.com as opposed to www.example.com. Domain registrars act as intermediaries between you and the registry, and they charge a fixed annual fee for this service. We provide domain registration services for between $7.00 and $7.50 per year for most common top level domains.

DNS or Domain Name Service is used to tell the world what you want to do with your domain name. Most commonly, it is used to create a hostname. Most hostnames have another word attached to the domain name like www.example.com. Each hostname corresponds to a website. It is possible to have more than one hostname per website, but a hostname can only refer to a single site. DNS links this hostname to your website, so when people want to visit www.example.com, their web browser can find it. This is a little like calling directory assistance to have them find a phone number based on someone's name. We offer free DNS service that provides this functionality.

Note: You can use example.com as both a domain name and a hostname but doing so has certain hard-to-understand limitations, and we do not recommend it.

Hosting or Web Hosting refers to the storage and retrieval of your actual web pages. After a web browser has checked with the registrar to see that your domain name is valid, and checked with DNS to find out where to look for your website, it goes to your web host to retrieve your web pages. This is the simplest of the three, and the only one that can work by itself. If you don't have a domain name registered or DNS service, you can always still refer to your site as example.nfshost.com or example.cust.nearlyfreespeech.net.

Now how do I go about getting my domain? I thought I understood it but now I'm not so sure after reading the info on nearlyfreespeech:

Right. As I understand it:

You register your domain with the registrar. The registrar tells ISPs what server the DNS information is on. When someone visits your domain, they need the appropriate IP, so they look that up in DNS information. A DNS server is the server that stores the master copy of that information. NFS.net let you poke about in there pretty well all you like. Then the query is sent to the IP the DNS server gave you: the IP of the server that stores the site itself.

Most of the information above is cached, though, so this chain isn't repeated every time you load a page. The cache is generally refreshed daily-ish.

Most places that will sell you a domain will handle all of the above for you. NFS.net will do that, but they'll assume some level of technical competence on your part.

...Any particular reason why you would want that? :p
...Any particular reason why you wouldn't?

And I'm beginning to see why I kinda liked it when Psyke left.

This is an avatar trend I just have to get in on. It's just too great.

Even if he is a gimmick, he can stay if he keeps this up.

Edit: I seriously, genuinely wish I could just jump through the Internet and hit Psyke many, many times in the face, very, very hard.Yeah, drawing spiteful art doesn't seem to cut it.

And the sheer fact that gingerneck hates Psyke only days after seeing his posts, has earned him a lot of respect in my book. I don't care how serious he is, he's just what Fan Art needed. Plain, senseless fun.

Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden

The Great B-Ball Purge of 2041, a day so painful to some that it is referred to only as the "B-Ballnacht". Thousands upon thousands of the world's greatest ballers were massacred in a swath of violence and sports bigotry as the game was outlawed worldwide. The reason: the Chaos Dunk, a jam so powerful its mere existence threatens the balance of chaos and order. Among the few ballers and fans that survived the basketball genocide was Charles Barkley, the man capable of performing the "Verboten Jam"...

Flash forward 12 years to the post-cyberpocalyptic ruins of Neo New York, 2053. A Chaos Dunk rocks the island of Manhattan, killing 15 million. When the finger is put on the aging Charles Barkley, he must evade the capture of the B-Ball Removal Department, led by former friend and baller Michael Jordan, and disappear into the dangerous underground of the post-cyberpocalypse to clear his name and find out the mysterious truth behind the Chaos Dunk. Joined by allies along the way, including his son Hoopz, Barkley must face the dangers of a life he thought he gave up a long time ago and discover the secrets behind the terrorist organization B.L.O.O.D.M.O.S.E.S.

A tale of zaubers, b-balls, and atonement; brave dangers unheard of, face spectacular challenges that even the greatest ballers could not overcome, and maybe... just maybe... redeem basketball once and for all in Tales of Game's Studios Presents Chef Boyardee's Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa.

How else can I indent the text to stop it from over lapping with the border or the background image? Or am I forced to use &nbsp;? Actually, that wouldn't work...

Andy,

Without seeing the document or the rest of its source it's more difficult to help. First, get a doctype (http://www.w3schools.com/xhtml/xhtml_dtd.asp) (or HTML 4.0 (http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_whyusehtml4.asp)) if you haven't already. Then put the contents of the menu div in <p></p>, and add the following to your CSS under .menu:

.menu p { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 20px; }

Also, you can replace any four 0s in margin and padding with just the one. That's CSS shorthand. The four numbers in order relate to the top, right, bottom and left (clockwise). You can also use two numbers. That would relate to the top/bottom and the right/left.

Slick, the lack of anti-aliasing on your GN avatar makes my eyes bleed.

How do I make it so that when I export a flash movie, the stuff that is suposed to stay offscreen stays offscreen when viewing the flash in, say, Internet Explorer?

Perhaps the easiest way would be to just hide it by making a top layer with a frame coloured the same as the background that covers anything offscreen.

Or, make an HTML file to embed it in.

Or use a mask the size of the movie.

Which version of IE? Try removing some new lines/empty lines, and even try putting the entire code on 1 line (just the html, not the CSS).

Which version of IE? Try removing some new lines/empty lines, and even try putting the entire code on 1 line (just the html, not the CSS).IE6 but I expect the same thing happens on IE7. I tried putting it on one line but the result was the same.

IE6 but I expect the same thing happens on IE7.
Strange thing to expect, given that the two browsers are so many years apart.

Seriously, FU, America.

Star Worms, your problem is that IE6 is forcing the "bottom" div to be at least the height of the font. There's a few ways to fix this. Probably the best way:

.bottom { overflow: hidden }

Well you see I was about to get in the buggy when I was first presented the option, but then that crazy b*tch from the crane kept going like "Get on the vehicle mr. freeman, get on the vehicle mr. freeman, get on the..." etc, so I was like, "Screw you b*tch, you're gonna knock me upside down anyway!" and decided to walk on my own.

Yes.

Well done, I'd been meaning to try that and see if it were possible. It is possible to right the vehicle after it's been flipped by blasting it around a bit with the gravity gun, though. :p

But yeah it is quite possible to get around HL2 witouth using the buggy, the only thing is, In order to not get mauled by antlions, I pretty much had to go trough most parts by using boxes to step on them. It was... long.
I also discovered that while not in the car, the flying thingies that shoot you never show up O_o

I agree. He uses "I are" too much. When you learn a new language, you learn the most common verbs easiest because they're used more. It's too deliberate and that video for the FanArt compo was too deliberately stupid too.

Plus, he has a googlemail account, which AFAIK you still need to be invited to have.

In his defence, there are a lot of bears in Estonia.

Well, yes. It's not some weird social clique. It's an email address.

I've talked to him on MSN on Saturday. He's a bit odd but not deranged. Apparently he has a square house and a brown white large horse called Heino. And yes, he did mention his brother Tallinn getting mauled by a bear.

Yeah, me, you, splapp, and a few others talked to him then. I haven't seen him online much since, but he seems to dislike me now. :p
And to be fair, he DID post something about his brother nearly being killed by a bear on DA like a week or ago or something. I'm not sure if he's just....weird, or what. : /

Can't someone with programming skills simply write a script that log's everybody's online-time on the forum? Then run it for several weeks until we figure out which Gingereck's other account is.

At least it will help us narrow down the suspect list.

From the xkcd FAQ.

Why can't I read the whole comic mouseover text in Firefox?

They can be read with extensions like Long Titles. This is a bug in Firefox, Mozilla Bug #45375. It has been outstanding for many years now. Both Ryan North (Dinosaur Comics) and I have contacted the developers to let them know how many of our readers it affects and to see if there's anything we can do to help with a fix (offering money or programmers). They repeatedly told us to go away and/or shut up, with some developers saying they'd withold a fix because we were complaining. I've of course learned to be way more cautious about offering to help out with an open-source project. You may want to check out Opera or Internet Explorer.

Note: It looks like this has been fixed in SeaMonkey. I suppose eventually the fix will migrate over to Firefox. (emphasis mine)

I think I've just gone off the open source movement a bit.

I know it misses the point, but there's an extention that fixes the bug itself if you'd like one.

For some reason, one of my dad's MP3 players (he has two now: one for rock and pop, one for jazz and stuff) has stopped accepting WMAs.

Was there actually a collection of porn within?
As Mtl said, there were probably about 30-odd links (half of which had been censored by the swear filter anyway), all formatted in html, and vB refused to parse even the URLs, so you couldn't click on any of the links.

Many of them wouldn't have worked because the word filter had been at them.

didn't get it at first. Went back and read a few more of them and it sort of made sense then. Quite amusing, if still a bit worrying. (I worry about tim Buckley, if that is his real name. Or if it isn't. More so, in fact.)

The text should probably be put into the comic somewhere, mind.

So he's obsessed with himself?

And as Andrew said, the text should probably be put in the comic, as it does look like he's explaining what it's about at the moment.

The portrayal of the joke in that particular strip was not effective to me. I only got it when I read the explanation. A text hint should have been included or a graphical representation of him considering posing to help differentiate between his normal expression. He could have been just looking out of his side window at the camera, which would not have been funny.

Metahumour, Matty. Don't worry about it.

The last frame is generally just his face because it's not so much the character who's self obsessed but the author. The comic is deliberately nothing more than an exercise in narcissism.

It's supposed to be though, so Andrew's comments apply, especially when just discussing the humour of the comic (as for the purposes of humour, Tim *is* the author).

I respect people's right to not have heard of Discworld.

I do not respect people's right to say "Reaper Man, is he some rapper or something?".

Particularly when the previous post advised someone to read it. Apparantly we read rappers now.

For some reason, I only read 1 or 2 of the Discworld books.

I can still tell they're brilliant, though. I just never read any more for no reason.

Not in the year 2007 with Uncle Google and Aunt Wiki. :rolleyes:

He's probably laughing at you.

And why can't you post that?

Flaming; taunting; inciting an argument: choose whichever you prefer.

Wow, that Team Fortress 2 video is amazing.

So are Scooch. They are amazing. Well-dressed and choreographed, but the brunette one can't sing live, she puts too much effort in to it.

Hungary (the really rather good blues one), Sweden (Status Quo had Freddie Mercury been their lead singer) and Romania (the comedy "cram as many languages in as possible" one) had the songs I liked most.

It's clearly a joke. There's a difference between that and a full-on torching.

Hmmm, I kinda like the name of this thread.

Can we just like...stop allowing new people to register? We're going to have an idiot meltdown.


Edit: well it's been deleted. But the name of it was "Od is Real!!!!" Then it got into some weird megaman porn story. Yep.

Was it deleted permanently?

No. (Only T17 staff can do that.) But I decided not to read it.

I didn't even read half of it. So, has awesomeman been banned? And the title Od is REAL or whatever it was seems a bit suspicious. Even if it is some morron. :/

Hey kids! Did you manage to get Windows Vista installed without actually figuring out the brain-wrenching trauma that is opening the box? Well not to worry, Microsoft is here to help you!

Still there for usermods and Teamsters to read, not that we'd want to...

And also there were a few "inappropriate" images that the user in question had posted around the forum - they've gone too. In fact, the only post left is one criticising gingerneck's fanart.

There was absolutely no reference to OD in the article, nor any of his other posts.

He hasn't been banned - just put on a 6-month Being Watched. He seems to have got the idea that we don't want him around here - he was online while I gave him the status and hasn't posted since.


Edit:

SupSuper: That screenshot is from Vista, isn't it? So, surely one must assume that you have successfully opened the box and installed vista?

Funny how things roll around.

Also, it would appear that my birthday is exactly six months away yesterday - I've just seen when his infraction expires.

Surprise surprise.

Awesome stuff: http://www.crabfu.com/steamtoys/

Wow, that's cool. Someone should invent a steam-powered TRAIN to cut down on fossil fuel consumption. That would be a step in the right direction.

Hey, wait...

Well, to be fair, it's not like steam power's any cleaner. It's just more AWESOME.

Nicely put.
