lulz

yo ISP, am I downloading warez? I am just running a TOR relay and I also participate in folding dem protein chainz, dem electric-sheep, dem distributed computing sh!ts. Oh, did i also mention I am running a public open WiFi Hot Spot and a proxy server for my friends in foreign countries, who cant access our local private warez sites, I meant linux trackers?? it wasnt me. it was the evil hacker next door, i guess. I doubt ISP's in Pridnestrovie Republic or other similar regions will comply, LULZ. Yawn.

eh i meant to type keyboard, instead of mouse. I own an m$ mouse - Microsoft intellimouse optical mouse 3.0 (not 'bad' model for gamers - 4!) as well as a glass black Icemat classic mouse pad. (it came as a bundle and it was kinda expensive. bought in 2006), with the Comfort Curve Keyboard (old revision). I once had to 'repair' the mouse though, but I found instructions on the net on it's weak point! So saved a couple of bucks he he. In the beginning i thought i would break the glass icemat mouse-pad, but it turned out to be very robust! So yeah I run mint linux mod @ work and microsoft windows 8 preview @ home, both places with m$ gear lol

I am not an m$ fanboi, but i used their mouse - a It's really cheap in my area, and I kinda thought i might be a replica or sth, but i think the low price is because it is not wireless, which I do not need anyway.

hahahah i wish i had some points to mod as +1 funny

When I was a kid I used to really love the kind of coffee that was offered on local in-country airplane rides. Sadly the company exist no more, but i found out by trial and error that the coffee that tastes the most like theirs in the good ole times is a powdered GRANDOS branded coffee. Its has a very nice taste and no sourness. I usually drink espresso though - my favorite is Lazzarin, Pitti, Illy - all from Italy I think

+1 for Weller® units. Built to last.

Perhaps hire a less skilled developers/QA staff (therefor less paid) and hand over to them the dirty work without compromising vital code and be insured against any attempts for a infrastructure security breach?

I remember when i had a Tandy computer back in 1989 and this game seemed so impressively huge and deep. Lol i didn't EVER beat it, and it still has a place in my heart. I know its not an RPG, but this is one of my favorite old time games, Amongst with Leisure Larry series.

the funniest thing is that the minister who took responsibility for signing the ACTA treaty early said on national television that he is under a lot of pressure to sign lots of paperwork everyday (around 100+ papers on a weekly basis) and he said quote "i'm sorry for not reading this document throughly, before accepting to sign it - my team of experts said it was nothing to qworry about it" They are truly clueless and they admit it, lulz.

Some curiosity:In Bulgaria and also most other eastern European countries there used to be a funny practice amongst ISP's:Each internet provider used to have a NAS/LAN server, accessible only to subscribers/customers, loaded with warez, pr0n and movies, in a catalog type of way, year by year. This was way back in 1999- 2005. So You basically see what your monthly fee is, now much Mbps you get up/down, and also what kind of "bonus" warez this particular ISP has to offer, lol! I almost canot believe this was the de facto standard for many years! After some time the laws got changed and the ISPs were forced to quit this practice. But then torrents came in place. So what i am thinking is - we have at least a dozen trackers that are registered/hosted in Switzerland, Netherlands and other locations, like offshore islands or that Transnistria in Russia, where our local Bulgarian/EU laws do not apply. The servers/trackers themselves are configured to answer to requests only from Bulgarian peering IP addresses. So basically those servers remain unseen for the rest of the internet, including authorities, unless you use a Bulgarian proxy. My humble guess is that this kind of "localized" trackers will never go away, also i know for a fact that in Russia they have the same private trackers, DC hubs, and other p2p based ways of sharing warez. Just my 2 cents on this subject - i don't really care about the Filesharing hosts like MegaUpload, WUpload, Hotfile, RapidShare and so on, because they want money, because they have their pages bloated with ads and because of the crappy CAPTCHAs. Yeah.

As in this case with the Russian NPO "Energomash" http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2083556/Meet-girl-blogger-sneaked-inside-Russian-missile-factory--security.html

Overclocking can be beneficial and safe, if you invest in good cooling and a reliable PSU. Details: My main rig has been sitting overclocked (prime95 & furmark stable) 24/7 from late 2009 CPU overclock - 30% (original speed 2800MHz, ran at 3500MHz, BUS overclock - from 266MHz to 400MHz), overall CPU temp rarely goes above 40C - 42C under load, even with this 'crazy' clocking, and a slight over voltage as well. Here is a screenshot of EVEREST's Overclock tab So my point is moderate OC wih proper cooling can be quite useful even for 24/7 systems, with proper cooling of course. Also most new CPU and GPU processors use some kind of dynamic under and slight overclocking, especially true for mobile cpu, so it is not "st000pid" if you do it the right way. It's just squeezing more performance out of the hardware you already have, without risking any short term or long term damages. -Just my 2 cents

I love SeaMonkey (ex Mozilla suite) and i would never ditch it for chrome or whatever other browser because of my beloved SeaMonkey :)

My first hard drive on a 8086 had to be parked manually via some DOS based software similar to park.com/park.exe but it began with an S.....exe and i didn't park it once, moved the PC and it went dead :( Not sure about the size though. I remember that I used to own a 20 MB drive though, and a game called Sherlock homes came out back then it was on 30+ floppy discs, therefore it was bigger than my whole HDD unpacked. I tried using Stacker from Stac Electronics, but no luck. I was so frustrated back then lol. My oldest working drive is a 4 GB PATA drive on a linux box, being used as a simple home router.
