  1. thats an easy thing to say. whats more difficult is proving it. and without solid proof everything we are saying is pure speculation.
  2. Bigger question, did they have souls? if they did then probably they went to heaven.
  3. Good News: I searched Bad News: i hit brick wall. Good News: I got inspiration Bad News: Not what i was originally looking for but i cant really be fussy. Plan B it is. plan B: Delegate to my subordinates and take credit. Aren't i a nice boss?
  4. heya OK its been a while since i started a topic, sorry but i'm at wits end. Question: I'm planning to make an application that uses a gsm modem to make and receive calls, sms etc. Basically a mobile phone on computer, obiously that's not all the program will be doing. I know AT commands to do what i want to do, and the designing i'm ok. All i want is a way to "talk" to the modem through VC++(2005). What i am NOT looking for: A ready made solution: like ActiveXperts SMS and MMS ToolkitHigh level DLL: Proprietary or Evaluation Software: (I don't want to install something the two lines later it's sending sms and i don't really know how) I'm not really looking for a quick fix but rather the bones that make it all work. Tall order? Maybe. What i would like: Simple example of VC accessing a modem. Before you start screaming "google" you just try to find a pure code way of doing this on google where they aren't trying to sell you something.
  5. Sorry mom (or some one who sound like her), i promise not to make choking sounds ever again. Seriously though, hope no one mistook that for an actual threat, after all I'm harmless, you can even ask the ten guys buried in the back yard next to the rose bush.
  6. No offense taken, just pointing out that swearing doesn't really add much value to an argument.
  7. Listen up 1: Swearing is all fine and dandy but not when every sentence you say involves a swear word. It gets a bit testy. 2: The big ban theory states that BEFORE life there was only one atom of sorts. think of it as a super unstable dense molecule and due to its instability it "exploded". The term exploded can be misleading as it doesn't necessarily imply that it was a violent explosion but leans more to it disintegrated and expanded into the current universe. life as we know it then started a couple of millions (if not billions) of years AFTER that.
  8. Hey bud, sorry it took me so long to look through it. As any apology i shall sacrifice a small goat and name my daughter after you. As it stands it pretty good, i kinda tore it up a bit in my compiler and now I'm waiting for two. Question: this is seems more like API tutorial (sorry ), are you going to touch on design aspects or are you taking the "I'll teach technical, you suffer on design" approach?
  9. The choking sound you all hear is my hands around xzondax's neck
  10. What is wrong with you guys? They were great! so they weren't exactly Steven Spielberg or Jerry Bruckheimer but they were good! *chaining sungazer and xzondax to cinema seats You will watch them until you like them!
  11. I would like to introduce you to a friend of mine, it's called spell checker. You thought the first two were bad? Well i guess there are all kinds of people in this world. I haven't seen the third movie yet but basing my judgment on your opinion of the first two movies i can deduce one thing: The third movie is going to be spectacular! Thanks for the review, I'm going to the movies after work.
  12. Very! It wouldn't be a bad idea though. How about including a spellchecker as well? I totally agree with you, except for the nuts part. But if you look through the post, most people were giving reasons why they do or don't believe the theory and since you feel so strongly about it, i would love to hear your reasoning.
  13. I agree on bragging rights, but i believe you should still earn then for new posts. after all, if they just become stagnant they wont be reflecting much other than a snap shot of right now. where's the fun in that? As for their usage I cant say that buying a blank stare works for me, but how about populate the store with member products e.g. program code, document etc hence to access that material one has to be a member and spend a little.
  14. I dont visit for a couple of days and this is what you guys do!!! As for my 2 cents of input, Store, Bank, interest - Never really bothered with them that much so i cant say i'll miss them. Helions - Technically arent a good idea from what i can tell from the above posts BUT they did wonders for one's ego. It may be too late now but i think they were quite fun, if you treat them solely as collectables. the kid in me always liked seeing who has the most. But thats just me. oh well, so long helions. I like the karma idea, could it work?
  15. drop table students, now that's funny i'm conflicted on the naming issue cuz where i'm from your name usually derived from a situation or feelings of you parents at the time of your birth. e.g. Itai -> Do as you please (Directed to God) (My mother had given up on life) Tatenda -> We are thankful IsheNgaakudwe -> Let the lord be praised should names be reasonable? yea but there shouldn't be a law that forces you to do so. it's unnecessary and i feel its just having a law where one isn't needed.
  16. I'd have to go with the view that Wikipedia is kinda like open source. is there a risk factor involved yes there is. but as with any Open source project the larger the community the lower the risk. i don't really see 2 million people from around the world conniving together just to bring YOU wrong information, do you?
  17. Boys and girls, I'm bored stiff. No one seems to be online right now. so if you use WLM holla at me my id is the same as my name. phoexer original huh? By the way does anyone know why skype is not delivering these days?
  18. firefox 3, all i can say is whew, they opened the flood gates of heaven with this one!!!! i only have one problem with firefox. Its a memory hog! Man! But i suppose thats the cost incurred for such plesure. right now its the highest on the list with 112,264k second place going to thunderbird 33,372k is this normal?
