  1. ok, specs of the computer... d805 processor, oc'd to 3.4 ghz 2 gb RAM 8800 gtx 512 video card p5nd2 motherboard by asus not sure if any of that is slowing me down, but for christs sake, its just web browsing, and i run age of conan and crysis on here without too much trouble. i use IE. used to use firefox, back in the day, but i kinda dig the new IE, so i just use it now. specifically whats happening is this. i dont like typing stuff into my address bar. dont ask me why, i just dont. my homepage is google, and everytime i want to look something up, i just run the search for it. clicking on the link, oftentimes it thinks for a while and gives me the "page cannot be found" blurb. refresh, wait, refresh, wait, and then finally it opens up. it doesnt do this with pages that are in my favorites, just links. now, some of you may suggest that i use my address bar and see if that helps, but I SHOULDNT FUCKING HAVE TO! anyone whod like to actually come see for themselves whats going on is welcome to come over for pizza, pop, and computer nerdliness. hell, bring your rig and well run some games too, once my shit is figured out. edit: this install has been on my puter just about a month, and ive run avg since i put it on. spyware or virus's really shouldnt be a problem.
  2. riddle me this, why is my windows vista tripping when i try to open web pages? mensan was over yesterday and was watching as i tired to get on to show him something, and his take was "mine doesnt do that, youre shit is broke". i agree. ive mentioned this before, but i didnt actually ask for help. well, now im asking. can anyone explain to me why i have to refresh pages like 4 times to get them to come up?
  3. moldex, 3m are a couple companies. i work with safety glasses, earplugs, a hardhat and a mask, and im the safety coordinator for my department. let me know what you want, specifically, and i can probably get you some samples. eli is mostly right about hearing protection, the other alternative being hard hat mounted earmuffs. no need for a prescription or fitting on those.
  4. indeed. sorry for your loss, bro.
  5. dang, that looks clean. like the color. right on, bobby.
  6. sometimes i feel just like those black kids, only reversed.
  7. how you gonna take advice from a man that got a 1250 on his SAT? man, you know i was sick that day! sick? youd have to have a damn anuerysm to get a 1250 on your sat!
  8. 1988 Mitsubishi Starion ESIR in the 80s, it was a freaking cool car. (still is, actually) http://www.racetep.com/jeff4.jpg
  9. no matter how many times i read that (and as eli pointed out, its been about a dozen times now) its still cool. last time the debate was as to wether or not the last bit with the corvette was actually true in scientific terms. interesting math in that. ant wishes his car was cool.
  10. give me my positive rep, fool!

    new here....

    this thread got its mack, its shwerve, and its groove on.
  12. ok, just got done reading the other thread. heres my real short take... people fuck up. they do irresponsible things, they act foolishly, they dont think. sometimes, that leads to people getting hurt or killed. sometimes its the person who acted the fool, in which case we all say "well, he did something stupid, and he got clipped for it". sometimes, even more tragically, its someone else, just minding their own business. in that case its the responsibility of the justice system to prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law, and its the perpetrators responsibility to accept that punishment. and its everyone elses responsibility to learn from all this. twice in a year now something tragic has happened to people a lot of us know. both times there was (allegedly) irresponsible behavior at least partly to blame. to try and justify or excuse criminally negligent behavior is almost criminal in itself. think before you speak. and more importantly, think before you act.
  13. chuckle. so, wait, i havent done my research... i gather that homed00ds bestest/sorta/kinda/not really friend hit someone in a car, killed them, and then fled the scene, was caught and is now getting "the book" thrown in his grill. d00d is gripping about it, and in his daily activities stumbles across a story of some other fool (who happens to be a woman, AND a cop) who hit some other poor bastard, didnt kill him, fled the scene, got caught, and got hit with much less of "the book", and d00d is now using this story as some means of justification for his indignation over the perceived mistreatment of his bestest/sorta/kinda/not really friend by the justice department. that about sum shit up?
  14. would you be willing to part with the wheels and tires?
  15. d00d, i just thought that it would be awesome to have at you crib, and everytime someone wanted a pop, you charged them like 15 cents. that way theyd have to go looking through all their fuckin change for dimes and nickels. hehe.
  16. rofl. i seriously just choked on a strawberry. thank you, derek.
  17. Whats is how many people can't seem to spell . To those who can, thank you. This IS a thread about education, after all.
