  1. If I had 64 more words to use, these would be it.
  2. There are two reasons an individual will be religious: faith, or the need to belong. These who do not actually have faith, merely need to belong and defend a belief because it is part of a social construct that they value. These individuals are close minded, argumentative, intolerant of other beliefs, and sometimes violent. It is these people who destroy the credibility and the beauty of the idea of Religion.
  3. There is a lot of time involved.
  4. Not that I know of. and about the channel -- under "wireless" it does say "wireless channel" but the drop down menu is empty . (it shows it on channel 6 under the "settings" tab, if that means anything).
  5. 2 others that I can periodically detect. I'll try that.
  6. ooh,That would be bad. Is there a way to test for that? I think I'll put it right by the router and see what signal it gets.
  7. Mine work fine together. On different partitions they really con't mess each other up too much. Stupid windows, if there was something other than itunes that used podcasts well, and I could compile my programs for my computer classes on Linux I wouldn't even have windows. Why do you need windows (both bluenoise and OP)?
  8. Yeah, me too. I thought it was completely true, I totally believed it. It's just like congress.
  9. 3 made of studs and dry wall. Or just one if it goes down the hall . I'd run a cord, but that ALWAYS ends badly at my house. And it was working well for a good month before it started getting horrible connections.
  10. I just barely found some cammands that would do this (cout.fill('0') and setw(2)), thanks for your help!
  11. My wireless card on my PC was working great for a while, but for about a month it's been getting a "low" connection and it periodically cuts out altogether. I've updated the drivers, no difference. It has the same responce when I boot into Ubuntu, so I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the environment. What could be messing up my connection? What can I do to optimize a wireless connection?
  12. I have a program where you type in the start and end times of a trip, and supposing that the trip should take 25% less time, it displays the new end time. The new end time is split between hours and minutes in integer form. If the hours has only one digit (or the minutes) then the time will only be in 3 digits (or two if both are only one digit). And this does not work with hhmm military time (the kind I am using). So, simply put, can I get an integer to display always as a two digit number in C++? Tell me if you have no idea what I'm talking about, here's the code: EDIT: You know what happens when no one responds... I'll figure it out eventually. You can use cout.fill('0') and setw() to do this.
  13. Not even! Dragan Ball had an amazing story, and Dragon Ball Z after that was even better. Dragon Ball GT was horrible though, it was exactly as you say "more for corny thrills and cool affects."
  14. Have you seen American TV? Sitcoms are the same twelve stories told over and over again (maybe thirteen), TV news is stupid, and American Cartoons are either mind numbingly boring, or when they aren't boring they have profanity in them (I still love Futurama). PS: J-Pop is just as boring as American Pop.
  15. This seems promising: http://www.simulationexams.com/, first hit on google (there seem to be many). Where do you take the A+ certification exam?
  16. The college I go to offers certifications for Programming and Network Administration (working on programming, all the classes required are needed for my degree anyway ). So you can check at a local college I suppose. I know w3 schools offers "certification" tests you can get on the net, doesn't sound very good though. I don't know much else beyond that.
  17. Very slow, especially when on windows (doesn't seem to work very well with my wireless card). So even with a good connections it's slow, with a bad one, it's painful.
  18. I saw something (on Digg? I don't remember) about "Torpark," but I forgot about it. Later I looked it up, and I downloaded it. I'm using it right now, it routes your traffic through servers randomly (tor or onion servers or something like that) and it makes your browsing difficult or immpossible to trace. I was wondering who exactly it hides your browsing from. I don't particularly care what people can see from here, from the comptuer, but what can your ISP see? I mean I like the idea of the ISP not knowing what I'm doing, but is that all it does? Is there a similar torrent client (sounds kinda stupid and slow, but is it possible ) ?
  19. Why not just talk to people? If you currently don't care what they think, why not talk to them when the opportunity arises and not worry about what they think?
  20. I realize the value in the association between Atheism and Deism -- it can "validate" Atheism. But I don't think Atheism needs to be validated, it's valid enough on it's own. Not to mention the illogical "similarities" between Deism (for which the main belief is that there IS a God) and Atheism (for which the main belief is that there IS NOT a God). A Deist (from the word "Deity" or God) believes that there is a God. How can a believer in God be an Atheist?
  21. I don't know if Atheists would like being confused with Deists
  22. I don't really know where the zip code would be unless it was associated with a city... but with Google Earth I can mark the zip code boundries and overlay an image showing the sections! This should work. Hey thanks Ecoli, I was getting really frustrated for a while and you helped me.
  23. Google Earth seems to be able to display the borders, but doesn't show the numbers. Does anyone know a lot about this? Is there a way to see the zip codes along with the borders?
  24. I think that there are some areas that governed directly by the county?
