[QUOTE=ProWaffle;30302306]My mum thought Apple iCloud physically stored data in clouds and that was why some believed it to be unreliable and unsecure[/QUOTE]
Now I'm imagining servers floating inside of clouds.
Atleast those servers would have good cooling

Also there was thunder last night. Did the servers short circuit? :science:

You do know that clouds = water = short circuit? :science:

That storm was really strange here in Copenhagen. I have a west-facing apartment, so while I could clearly see the flashes in the horizon, there was absolutely no sound. It was really eerie.
[QUOTE=Sinclair;30301274]I came up with this idea, a group photo of us on a ship. Here's the 1st picture out of lots:

I'll be adding more stuff to it, PM me if you want to be in it. Tell me what you want to be doing also.[/QUOTE]
I would very much enjoy being a crew member on the SS Comic Sans, however I don't think there's anything useful I could offer to the ship.
Or maybe I could just make tea and vegemite toast for everyone!
ok.. i got one..
working at learn direct, teaching basics of how to use a computer, i.e. HOW TO TYPE!
get a note from my boss saying that a "one 2 one" learner is going to come in (basicly means i have to tutor this guy all day by myself.
no breaks no attending to other people that need my help, and they are paying us, so we cant say no..
anyway...
he comes in..
he's French.
he doesn't speak English.
he can't type.
he insists on using his own laptop that doesn't have our programmes and software
complains that his laptop is slow because of our slow internet (we have broadband)
resolution for his screen must be the lowest setting possible
his desktop is a tiled 24px image of a car with the words "stock" written over it..
and i swear to god, he was using internet explorer 5 or something with THOUSANDS of fucking useless toolbars
a whole day with this guy..
i.... i.. was in hell.

I live in Tårnby, and from here I just saw the flashes on the Copenhagen sky, it was like Copenhagen was getting bombed or some shit. Pretty cool, anyway.

Wishful thinking.
Skype is dying, it keeps repeatedly crashing for everyone without even needing an update to cause it.
(Don't say "LOL IT'Z MICRO$OFT LOLO" because the deal still hasn't completely gone through yet, Skype still owns Skype.)

Run a memtest
Ive already done that ive done so many test's and nothing shows me that there is a hardware based problem.
Does anyone know a good Newegg UK equivalent?
It feels so good to have one of the best CPUs on the market right now.
THEN TO HAVE IT BOTTLENECKED BY A HD3850!
evil fuck.

Did you run a memtest, or are you just ignorant now.

God that's wasteful. What IP range is this?
So its helpdesk day again. First i had to show a student how to change the font in word for mac. She totally missed the big font button at the top. Then iMovie refused to import .mod (MPEG2 codec renamed). Rename to .avi, still greyed out. Same with .mpg and .mpeg. First time i had to give up helping someone.
-sigh- another learner just came in..
learner - "oh.. i've never used a computer before"
me - thats fine, thats why we are here, to help... by chance, do you know how to use a mouse and keyboard?
learner - no.. sorry
another long day in the making here

Ping yourself several times in Command Prompt. Watch him shit bricks.
What does everyone think of dabs.com?
Just asked my dad why he doesn't use a mouse for his laptop, since he never moves it. He told me, and i swear to god, that "using a mouse on a laptop degrades the sensitivity of the trackpad over time." This is the same guy who's been maintaining his C64 for 20 years now, and who regularly uses gentoo. The laptop, in fact, is currently running gentoo. He maintains it himself, no help from me.
[editline]7th June 2011[/editline]
just asked about the mouse because it's hard as FUCK to play quake live with a trackpad.
[QUOTE=compwhizii;30303937]God that's wasteful. What IP range is this?[/QUOTE]
158.59.x.x
The firewall blocks inbound on anything but 158.59.200.x. I run that block for hosting services for the CompSci classes and non-profit hosting. I run the only justifyable IP space :p
it's hard to actually play anything with a trackpad. and it's not like those mice with a red ball on the side for moving the cursour, where you can actually adapt over time and possibly even like it.

Normally I'd agree with you but the guy he pizza'd the crap out of deserved a few hundred rounds on the house.
Nope. Harddrive cameras, for some reason, call mpeg videos .mod
[editline]7th June 2011[/editline]
Wait, yes. .mod is some kind of audio file now that I think about it. Hmm

We do cod4 lan parties on macbooks with trackpads every wensday. (Loading times are a bitch because it all loads from 1 macbook.)
