You sir win the internets!!

I agree wholeheartedly. There is not now, nor will there ever be, a reason to have all computers facing the internet without a router. IPv6 has been a collossal (sp?) waste of resources.

I tried a dumb little experiment the other week. I'm not retarded, I've been playing with computers since 1994.

I thought I'd be "smart" and use the second port on my isp supplied router for gaming. The port is there for x-box and the like. Thought I'd get a better ping. My wife likes watching videos while I play WoT.

Guess what? Virus like RIGHT NOW!!! I have antivirus, firewall and hosts file. I don't download anything sketchy, yet I was owned in no time.

I changed back to my router, which is behind their router, cleaned out my system and haven't had any issues since. I now use qos from my switch. (Yes I realize I should have done that first).

So by going through two routers I have no need for an ipv6 address and I can do anything I need to do including online gaming. People hate change naturally and there's no way people will change for NO REAL REASON!!! I have been saying this for 8 years now.

You have my sympathies for having the misfortune of living in the highest taxed jurisdiction in Canada.

What really pissed me off was, that I bought the game on CD but still had to go to Steam to activate it!!?? WTF? I didn't want to play online or with other people. Steam didn't need to be involved at all.

I see that Steam is the new Linux around here, but I won't play anything from their site just like I won't use Linux for anything either.

What I do play is World of Tanks. Installed without a hitch, works perfectly, and I don't have to give all my personal info away.

But will America let them on the soundstage?

I don't know. It worked for a bit, then connected to steam and didn't work anymore. I read something on their site about how to fix it, but it didn't work for me.

I hate steam. Won't play any of their games.
I tried one steam game and the entire experience was a farce. Yes, that's all it took, bought a cd, had to use steam, game screwed up and lost sound. Couldn't fix it. Bye Steam. DIAF.
The best game I found in years though is World of Tanks. I've upgraded my PC for better graphics.
I will always game on a PC. Consoles to me are so 80's.

How about the people that read the Bible and don't listen to God?
Many "religious" people are basically frauds. They take the parts of the Bible that suit them and ignore the really important stuff.
Jesus said, "Many are called, but few are chosen."

This is the most damning of all in my opinion:

Matthew 7
21 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? 23 And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!

Just because someone says they are believers of God, doesn't mean they really are. I am a follower of Jesus Christ. The proof of that is in my life. My actions alone.

Psalm 14:1

The fool has said in his heart,
There is no God.

Peace. Let the flaming begin....
