[08:25] <@jacky> ah
[08:25] <@jacky> that must be it then
[08:25] <@jacky> cool
[08:25] <@jacky> you must be desperate and bored
[08:25] <@jacky> I see posts on CH
[08:25] <@jacky> heheeh
[08:25] <@Calum> hehe
[08:25] <Mulreay> What you up to today jacky?
[08:25] <Mulreay> and heh
[08:25] <Mulreay> just read that
[08:25] <@Calum> I figured I would make a reappearance there, see what was going on
[08:26] <@jacky> Calum: you mentioned that you might.
[08:26] <@Calum> I was in fact fairly bored heh
[08:26] <@jacky> Mulreay: engulfed in the fragrances of fields, freshly covered with chicken manure
[08:26] <@jacky> heheeh
[08:26] <camerongray> hey jacky, Mulreay & Calum
[08:26] <Mulreay> lol
[08:26] <Mulreay> hi camerongray
[08:26] <@Calum> hey cameron
[08:27] <@jacky> Mulreay: it is spring time, and this is the year that the farmer will do corn, not soybeans. So... it is chicken sh*t time
[08:27] <@jacky> hehehe
[08:27] <Mulreay> lol
[08:29] <camerongray> Don't mention chicken sh*t - I was at a shopping centre today near a chicken product factory and the wind was blowing the wrong way - It was DISGUSTING!
[08:30] <Mulreay> heh
[08:30] <Mulreay> I just had a EUREKA moment
[08:30] <camerongray> lol is it a clever one or a BC style one? :P
[08:31] <@jacky> camerongray: you should just walk through a chicken house sometime... better yet, help a friend all day, with a shovel in your hand
[08:31] <@jacky> heheehe
[08:32] <Mulreay> No I was having trouble with 'newsflash, latest news and Feed display' (they would not show up) on my homepage... so I have gone through ALL the modules unpublishing them and re-publishing in certain orders and found the ones that are conflicting
[08:33] <Mulreay> It's not that great a story for anyone but me
[08:33] <Mulreay> :p
[08:33] <camerongray> eww
[08:49] <Mulreay> Nope I have definately changed something somewhere so I can no longer use 'latest news' damn this is frutrating
[08:49] <Mulreay> frustrating*
[08:50] <camerongray> Welcome to the world of computers
[08:51] <Mulreay> lol
[08:52] <camerongray> I'm trying to get a website working on sourceforge, no CMS! - I'm having to make HTML Files in KompoZer which is no easy task
[08:53] <Mulreay> Yeah well I stubbed my toe on the corner of my cupboard this morning :/
[08:54] <Mulreay> Sorry had nothing better
[08:54] <camerongray> lol
[08:55] <camerongray> Sounds like something I would do
[08:55] <Mulreay> heh
[08:56] <camerongray> Last week I was going up to the attic and somehow my head missed the opening and I smacked it on the ceiling
[08:56] <Mulreay> haha
[08:57] <Mulreay> HAAAAA I fixed it
[08:57] <Mulreay> Man this feels good
[08:59] <Mulreay> And it's randomly picking out the two newsflashes... wow I do learn things from you camerongray
[09:03] <camerongray> lol, You know more about Joomla than me now :
[09:03] <camerongray> :P
[09:03] <Mulreay> heh
[09:04] <Mulreay> I find (which can sometimes be my problem) deal with one thing at a team rather than 10
[09:04] <Mulreay> time*
[09:06] <Mulreay> Wow I'm so getting the hang of this... I have things all over the place on the homepage now :)
[09:07] <camerongray> cool
[09:07] <Mulreay> Just need something under the latest news
[09:07] <Mulreay> or newsflash even.. don't get them two mixed up trust me
[09:09] <Mulreay> Mmm could make the newsflash the latest article added... that would increase it's size
[09:24] * Trisha (Mibbit@mib-7D049315.dsl.okcyok.swbell.net) has joined #glitchpc
[09:25] <Trisha> what is a non responsive script??
[09:25] <@Calum> it is a script, which is not responding :P
[09:25] <@Calum> was this on a web page?
[09:26] <Trisha> lol
[09:26] <Trisha> comes up on every thing esp the pogo game site
[09:26] <@Calum> what browser are you using?
[09:26] <Trisha> fire fox
[09:27] <@Calum> hm...there's a way to fix that, bear with me just a second
[09:27] <@jacky> Trisha: Hello
[09:27] <@jacky> and
[09:27] <@jacky> I get that sometimes, too
[09:27] <@jacky> Firefox
[09:27] <Trisha> does this hi jacky
[09:27] <@jacky> but, I'm running an old machine
[09:27] <@jacky> it seems to happen, when a site is taking forever to load
[09:28] <Trisha> this happen to be on a friends computer and she is on the phone with me
[09:28] <@Calum> Trisha - if you click continue, does the site load normally afterwards? or does it keep coming up?
[09:28] <@jacky> or, if I've clicked on several things, opening them in tabs, and sort of bog it down
[09:28] <Trisha> describing it to me
[09:28] <@jacky> then again, some sites are WAY worse about it than others.
[09:28] <Trisha> she stops it and it goes away temp
[09:29] <Trisha> how does she get rid of it
[09:29] <@Calum> she needs to go to about:config within Firefox
[09:30] <Trisha> she has mcafee security not AVG9
[09:30] <@Calum> type it in the address bar, hit enter, just like going to a normal web page, but this is actually a configuration tool
[09:30] <Mulreay> If it says 'non responsive script' then the problem should be either a loading time 'as jacky said' or your the problem is at there end as the script is not responding to requests from your browser
[09:30] <Mulreay> but follow Calum
[09:30] <Mulreay> He knows more
[09:30] <@jacky> Mulreay: I am too, now
[09:30] <@jacky> heh
[09:31] <Mulreay> heh
[09:31] <@Calum> Mulreay's right, this is just to give the computer a little more time to try and process the script before giving up and deeming it unresponsive
[09:31] <Mulreay> cool will follow this for future ref
[09:31] <@Calum> in about;config, she needs to find the setting called "dom.max_script_run_time" (she can use a search tool in that page) and change it upwards, 20 is a good number

[09:32] <@Calum> reference for anyone else, for future reference - http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Warning+Unresponsive+Script - along with a few other possible solutions and an explanation of the issue
[09:32] <Mulreay> cool thanks Calum
[09:32] <@Calum> np
[09:32] <@jacky> sweet
[09:32] <@BC_Programming> I was just going to write that, I swear
[09:32] <@BC_Programming> heh
[09:33] <@jacky> you'd heard of that before then?
[09:33] <@BC_Programming> I have no idea what's going on, lol
[09:33] <@Calum> heh
[09:33] <Mulreay> Mine is set to 20 already
[09:33] <@jacky> BC_Programming: nice to know that you are your normal self. <eg>
[09:33] <Mulreay> hi BC_Programming
[09:33] <@jacky> Trisha: still with us? got everything Calum said?
[09:33] <@Calum> hm, well you could always up it further to say 30...although it really shouldn't normally take that long
[09:34] <Trisha> yes i just sent the link to her
[09:34] <@jacky> excellent
[09:34] <Mulreay> I don't have problems with it so keep it where it is
[09:34] <@jacky> I wonder if she has an older computer.....
[09:34] <Trisha> how is every one been ????
[09:34] <Trisha> she has an E Machine
[09:34] <@jacky> Trisha: everyday, we all say, "Gee.. where's Trisha?" ... then we leave
[09:34] <@Calum> yeah, it's usually only necessary to change it for buggy websites or slower machines
[09:35] <Trisha> yeah right
[09:35] <@jacky> hehehe
[09:35] <@BC_Programming> Jacky: that's not true! one time I wondered where my left sock was. t hen I got lost in my closet
[09:35] <Trisha> glitch is the only one who sent a b day card to me
[09:35] <Mulreay> lol
[09:35] <@Calum> heh
[09:35] <@BC_Programming> it was awful
[09:35] <@BC_Programming> the closet was full of even more right socks
[09:35] <@BC_Programming> then I realized
[09:35] <@BC_Programming> they are tube socks, they don't have left and right
[09:36] <@jacky> Trisha: not sure how long it has been since you've been here. Perhaps you remember street1 ?
[09:36] <Mulreay> Did you end up in a snowy wonderland where there was a talking lion? Perchance...
[09:36] <@BC_Programming> No, that's just silly. I was in a closet, not the dryer
[09:37] <Mulreay> Haha
[09:38] <Trisha> lol
[09:38] <Trisha> you are all the same
[09:38] <Trisha> yes i remember street1
[09:38] <Trisha> why
[09:38] <Mulreay> yep prity much
[09:38] <@jacky> He was fighting lung cancer
[09:38] <Trisha> what happened
[09:38] <@jacky> didn't appear on line for a while
[09:39] <@jacky> and we eventually found his obituary
[09:39] <@jacky> online
[09:39] <Trisha> wow
[09:39] <@jacky> that was in Mid Feb, and we found it around the beginning of March.
[09:39] <@jacky> Yes. :(
[09:39] <@BC_Programming> :*(
[09:39] <@BC_Programming> sad clown
[09:39] <Mulreay> :(
[09:39] <Trisha> very sad clown
[09:39] <@jacky> We assume it was the lung cancer that he succumbed to
[09:40] <Mulreay> Twos a sad day
[09:40] <@BC_Programming> he did mention that peckerwood gave him the hairy eyeball a few times
[09:40] <@jacky> things are said here, daily, that cause me to remember him. ... the things he used to come up with... heehehe
[09:40] <@BC_Programming> I'd say he's a prime suspect.
[09:40] <@Calum> oh...you guys just reminded me...brb, need to reboot
[09:40] <Trisha> wow
[09:40] * Calum (Mibbit@mib-1B5B96EA.leic.cable.ntl.com) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[09:41] <Mulreay> How did that remind him to reboot?
[09:41] <@jacky> street was, what I would categorize as, a genuine character .
[09:41] <@jacky> heheeh
[09:41] <@jacky> I don't know
[09:41] <@jacky> was wondering that too
[09:41] <@BC_Programming> well obviously he doesn't need to reboot
[09:41] <@BC_Programming> he needs to check the roast
[09:41] <@BC_Programming> but he doesn't want to seem girly
[09:41] <Mulreay> Yeah Street was a genius at turning :( into :)
[09:41] <@jacky> re-roast?
[09:41] <Trisha> or scratch his butt
[09:41] <@jacky> re-butt?
[09:42] <Trisha> yeppers
[09:42] <@jacky> ok
[09:42] <@jacky> ok
[09:42] <@jacky> just checkin'
[09:42] <Trisha> fro what critters
[09:42] <Trisha> for
[09:42] <@BC_Programming> you know what my most important organ is?
[09:42] <@BC_Programming> my pancreas
[09:42] <@BC_Programming> I don't leave home without it
[09:43] <@jacky> ( Trisha: how's your friend doing? finding that setting in Firefox?)
[09:43] <Trisha> i thought it was the right hand
[09:43] <Mulreay> lol
[09:43] <@jacky> uh-oh
[09:43] <Mulreay> touche
[09:43] <@jacky> this is going downhill
[09:43] <@jacky> har
[09:43] <Trisha> she is having to update her firefox
[09:43] <Mulreay> Not an organ but still funny
[09:43] <@BC_Programming> well obviously nobody CARES but my pancreas says high. he says he'll bile a round
[09:44] <@BC_Programming> hi*
[09:44] <@jacky> Trisha: ok on update
[09:44] <@jacky> brb
[09:44] <Trisha> just a little under S this week
[09:44] * Calum (Mibbit@mib-1B5B96EA.leic.cable.ntl.com) has joined #glitchpc
[09:44] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Calum
[09:45] <Trisha> and mind happens to be gutter bound today
[09:45] <Trisha> sorry
[09:45] <Mulreay> wb Calum feel relaxed?
[09:45] <@Calum> relaxed?
[09:45] <Trisha> see
[09:45] <Mulreay> We were discussing your need to run off
[09:45] <Trisha> i told you he had to scratch his butt
[09:45] <@Calum> haha
[09:45] <@Calum> it was unrelated to bodily functions of any kind
[09:45] <@BC_Programming> ok
[09:46] <Trisha> yeah right
[09:46] <@BC_Programming> so yo usold a sandwich to your neighbor
[09:46] <@BC_Programming> very nice
[09:46] <@Calum> gah I needed to reboot, nothing else haha
[09:46] <@BC_Programming> you know I was looking for sandwich, and you go and sell one to your neighbor
[09:46] <@BC_Programming> so you didn't sell a sandwich?
[09:46] <@Calum> well, you should have made your intentions clearer
[09:46] <@Calum> maybe
[09:47] <@BC_Programming> do you have some for sale? because I'm no longer interested. I found a new supplier
[09:47] <@Calum> no it's cool
[09:47] <@BC_Programming> actually I just take them from my work, hahaha
[09:48] <@BC_Programming> sandwiches, I mean
[09:48] <@Calum> no...to get back on track of what I was trying to say, I needed to reboot because I'm messing with F@H and for some reason the client got hung...I've now learnt something not to do with it heh which will go in my new guides :)
[09:48] <@Calum> that's why you guys reminded me I needed to reboot, talking about Roberyt
[09:48] <@Calum> *robert even
[09:48] <Mulreay> Mmm could just eat a Tuna Mayo with cucumber (the most tasteless of fruits)
[09:48] <@Calum> I thought a cucumber was a vegetable?
[09:49] <Mulreay> It has seeds
[09:49] <@BC_Programming> cucumber is a fruit :P
[09:49] <@BC_Programming> it's actually a sort of melon
[09:49] <@Calum> I see
[09:49] <@BC_Programming> I think
[09:49] <Mulreay> yep
[09:49] <Trisha> no it is not it is a Pickel
[09:49] <@BC_Programming> pickled squid
[09:49] <@Calum> is a pickle a vegetable?
[09:49] <Mulreay> If it has seeds it's a fruit
[09:49] <Trisha> yes
[09:49] <Mulreay> Gurkin
[09:49] <@BC_Programming> gherkin*
[09:50] <Mulreay> that's the one
[09:50] <@BC_Programming> fish-hole
[09:50] <Trisha> shopped up it is rellish
[09:50] <@BC_Programming> interpret that as you please
[09:50] <Mulreay> A tomato is a fruit
[09:51] <Mulreay> Why?
[09:51] <Mulreay> It has seeds
[09:51] <Trisha> does not make a pickel a fruit
[09:51] <@BC_Programming> fruit and vegetable aren't determined by taste
[09:51] <Mulreay> No that just means it's been 'pickiled'
[09:51] <@BC_Programming> a pickle is a cucumber that has been pickled...
[09:51] <Mulreay> in vinegar usually
[09:52] <Mulreay> I think
[09:52] <@BC_Programming> and seasonings
[09:52] <Trisha> so is a yellow squash a fruit because it has seeds in it ???
[09:52] <@BC_Programming> yu cannot forget the seasonings
[09:52] <@BC_Programming> yes
[09:52] <@BC_Programming> squash are fruit
[09:52] <@BC_Programming> or as they call them over there "marrow" I believe
[09:52] <Mulreay> The plant of a Banana is a herb
[09:52] <@jacky> cucumber, sliced real thin ... mixed with onion sliced real thin... a little bit of vinegar... chill it... mmm, mmmm... good salad
[09:52] <Trisha> ok what planet are you from??? BC
[09:52] <Mulreay> This one..
[09:53] <@jacky> BC_Programming likes peanut butter on sardines
[09:53] <Mulreay> lol
[09:53] <Trisha> squash is not a fruit
[09:53] <@BC_Programming> I do?
[09:53] <@BC_Programming> I'm afraid so
[09:53] <Trisha> grose
[09:53] <@BC_Programming> ask a botanist :P
[09:53] <@jacky> maybe it was clams
[09:53] <Mulreay> Trisha if it has seeds it's classed as a fruit
[09:53] <@jacky> Mulreay: but.. just read BC!... isn't he a bit fruity?
[09:53] <Trisha> ok prove it now i am not close to a Botanist
[09:54] <Mulreay> jacky: lmfao
[09:54] <Trisha> may be a fruit fly would like him
[09:54] <@BC_Programming> fruit/vegetable have nothing to do with wether they are sweet or not; but we often associate them that way because it's largely the case
[09:54] <@BC_Programming> Avocado is a fruit- it's not very sweet either... I don't think
[09:54] <Mulreay> no
[09:54] <@jacky> oh see? now he's going to get all Professor-like
[09:54] <Mulreay> lol
[09:55] <Trisha> he thinks
[09:55] <@BC_Programming> Yams are vegetables, but they are known as "SWEET POTATERS"
[09:55] <@BC_Programming> I had to capitalize for effect
[09:55] <Mulreay> potatoes
[09:55] <@jacky> "I think, therefore I yam"
[09:55] <Trisha> wait a min where is his right hand
[09:55] <@jacky> and that is spelled, "taters"
[09:55] <Trisha> WRONG
[09:55] <@BC_Programming> french-fryed potaters
[09:56] <Trisha> their is a difference between yams and sweet potatoes
[09:56] <Trisha> BC I happen to be a COOK
[09:56] <@BC_Programming> yes, 10 letters
[09:56] <@jacky> which one makes the good pies?
[09:57] <@jacky> and sweet 'tater biscuits! mmm..mmmmmm
[09:57] <Mulreay> Jacket-potato with tuna mayo nom nom nom
[09:57] <@BC_Programming> mulreay, you did that wrong, it's NOM NOM NOM
[09:57] <Trisha> yams they are sweeter
[09:57] <Mulreay> lol
[09:57] <@BC_Programming> you MUST capitalize it
[09:57] <Trisha> naturally
[09:57] <Mulreay> of course
[09:58] <@BC_Programming> and here I thought they were different names for the same thing
[09:58] <Mulreay> Trisha: Your a chef and you don't know the difference between a vegetable and a fruit?
[09:58] <@BC_Programming> well anyway, both Yams and Sweet Potatoes are vegetables
[09:58] <Trisha> yes i do
[09:58] <@BC_Programming> and you mulreay, don't know when to say "you're"
[09:58] <Mulreay> lol
[09:59] <Trisha> and a pickel is not a fruit
[09:59] <Mulreay> It's to much to type
[09:59] <@BC_Programming> a pickle is a FREAKING cucumber
[09:59] * GlitchPC (Mibbit@mib-3E0BE34.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) has joined #glitchpc
[09:59] <@jacky> BC_Programming: !! I must be getting acclimated to it! I didn't even notice it
[09:59] <Mulreay> A pickel is nothing... it's not a veg or a fruit
[09:59] * ChanServ sets mode: +q
[09:59] * ChanServ sets mode: +o GlitchPC
[09:59] <Trisha> a cucumber is not a fruit
[09:59] <Mulreay> It's the way it's prepared
[09:59] <@jacky> right! BC is a fruit
[10:00] <@Calum> hey boss
[10:00] <@BC_Programming> by definition, yes. if the edible portion of the plant contains the seeds, it's a fruit
[10:00] <@jacky> speaking of fruitcakes....
[10:00] <@jacky> Hi GlitchPC
[10:00] <Mulreay> hi GlitchPC
[10:00] <@jacky> :)
[10:00] <@BC_Programming> fruitcake- natures doorstop.
[10:00] <Trisha> i would not eat a fruit like mulreay
[10:00] <@GlitchPC> huh? Oh, Hello Mr. Meoff
[10:01] <Mulreay> Trisha? How do I eat fruits.. apart usually with my hands
[10:01] <Trisha> thank you for membering my b day
[10:01] <@BC_Programming> you're welcome
[10:01] <@BC_Programming> I try
[10:01] <@BC_Programming> lol
[10:01] <Mulreay> haha
[10:01] <@BC_Programming> well Glitch didn't answer
[10:02] <@GlitchPC> Answer what?
[10:02] <Mulreay> yeah fair game
[10:02] <@BC_Programming> who?
[10:02] <Mulreay> there?
[10:02] <Trisha> he did not have too Goober Smack
[10:02] <@GlitchPC> I said hello
[10:02] <@GlitchPC> Oh
[10:02] <@GlitchPC> Sorry, Trisha
[10:02] <@BC_Programming> it's alright
[10:02] <@BC_Programming> no harm done
[10:02] <@BC_Programming> lol
[10:02] <@BC_Programming> rofl
[10:03] <Trisha> bc is just being a goober smack
[10:03] <Mulreay> lol
[10:03] <@GlitchPC> I love Goobers...
[10:03] <@BC_Programming> I'm helping people
[10:03] <@jacky> goobers are vegatables, right?
[10:03] <Trisha> coffee brb
[10:03] <@GlitchPC> and Raisinets
[10:03] <Mulreay> I love smack
[10:03] <@BC_Programming> coffee is a fruit
[10:03] <@BC_Programming> actually it's a bean, but it's inside a berry
[10:03] <@jacky> raisins! (just so long as they are not moving...)
[10:03] <Trisha> yep they happen to be close to Whale Snot
[10:03] <@GlitchPC> Whale snot?
[10:04] <@GlitchPC> I've never seen whale snot before
[10:04] <Mulreay> it's big
[10:04] <@GlitchPC> Unless they're like jelly-fish
[10:04] <@jacky> Whale's not what?
[10:04] <@BC_Programming> jelly-fish are a excellent source of jelly
[10:04] <@GlitchPC> Whale's not a fish
[10:04] <@jacky> ok
[10:04] <@jacky> ok
[10:05] <@BC_Programming> are they a vegetable?
[10:05] <Mulreay> lol
[10:05] <Mulreay> They don't have seeds
[10:05] <@BC_Programming> they don't have any seeds...
[10:05] <@jacky> only if they are retarded
[10:05] <@GlitchPC> Nope...they're fruits
[10:05] <Trisha> my point to call him Goober Smack
[10:05] <@BC_Programming> Dolphins make the best tuna.
[10:06] <Mulreay> lol
[10:06] <@GlitchPC> ...and let's not forget the Jets
[10:06] <@jacky> har
[10:06] <Trisha> lol
[10:06] <@BC_Programming> I didn't get that at first
[10:06] <Mulreay> I still don't I'm from England
[10:06] <@GlitchPC> Most Goober Smacks won't
[10:06] <Trisha> do we need to draw you a road map
[10:07] <@BC_Programming> some sports team
[10:07] <@jacky> y'know.. Glitch and Trisha can be missing from the conversation for lengthy periods, and come back, and jump right in. That's saying something about us. That's scary.... heheheeheh
[10:07] <@GlitchPC> We have no life
[10:07] <Mulreay> We are great at intergration
[10:07] <@BC_Programming> I just string random words together, usually it ends up making frozen mongoose.
[10:07] <@jacky> sure beats outergration
[10:07] <Trisha> i am woman hear me roar
[10:07] <@GlitchPC> ...and let's not orget multi=tasking
[10:07] <@GlitchPC> -*
[10:08] <@BC_Programming> I shall not orget
[10:08] <Mulreay> Or spacial awarness
[10:08] <@BC_Programming> I will make it a primary goal, first, find out what orgetting is, and then, don't do it!
[10:08] <@GlitchPC> lol
[10:08] <@GlitchPC> Or underwearness
[10:08] <Mulreay> lol
[10:08] <Trisha> i dont have any on
[10:08] <Trisha> ha ha
[10:09] <@GlitchPC> tmi
[10:09] <Trisha> i know
[10:09] <Trisha> told you all i was gutter bound today
[10:09] <@GlitchPC> now those skidmarks will be on your pants, instead
[10:09] <@BC_Programming> everybody, this has become a standard IRC chatroom, which means whenever somebody joins we have to say the following:
[10:10] <@BC_Programming> hi <nick> A/S/L
[10:10] <Trisha> what
[10:10] <Trisha> why
[10:10] <@jacky> I don't have cable, I have DSL
[10:10] <@jacky> <g>
[10:10] <Mulreay> lol
[10:10] <@BC_Programming> I forgot what the L stood for
[10:10] <Mulreay> location
[10:10] <@BC_Programming> darn
[10:10] <Mulreay> tit
[10:10] <@BC_Programming> and here I thought it stood for larceny
[10:11] <@jacky> Mulreay << hangs out in them kinda chat rooms, eh?
[10:11] <Mulreay> Do I ****
[10:11] <Trisha> ok you be the first
[10:11] <@jacky> har
[10:11] <@BC_Programming> you know where you can always find 40 year old single men? In lesbian chatrooms.
[10:11] <@BC_Programming> 90%
[10:11] <Trisha> what is you age/ sex preference/location
[10:12] <@GlitchPC> I'm 62
[10:12] <@GlitchPC> sorry
[10:12] <@GlitchPC> 52
[10:12] <Trisha> women dont tell their age goober
[10:12] <Mulreay> age/sex/location
[10:12] <@BC_Programming> her's is funnier
[10:12] <@GlitchPC> I'm a man...but sometime's like to dress in women's clothing
[10:12] <Mulreay> My bot has a very handy acronym feature
[10:12] <@BC_Programming> 23, Possums in a dark alley on Tuesdays, next to a dark alley.
[10:13] <@GlitchPC> I'm sitting on this chair in my room
[10:13] <@BC_Programming> It's badger Saturday
[10:13] <@BC_Programming> do you see any.... badgers?
[10:13] <Mulreay> Here we go...
[10:13] <@GlitchPC> we don't need no stinking badgers
[10:13] <@BC_Programming> I sometimes tie together two cans with string, a makeshift phone
[10:13] <@BC_Programming> I throw it down a badger hole
[10:13] <Trisha> thought you liked sheep bc
[10:13] <@jacky> Hello! Hello... is anybody there?
[10:13] <@BC_Programming> and ask "what are you wearing"
[10:14] <Mulreay> Oh GlitchPC I have a bone to pick with you.....
[10:14] <@BC_Programming> then it turns out to be some bloody gopher
[10:14] <@GlitchPC> oh crap
[10:14] <@GlitchPC> gotta go
[10:14] <@GlitchPC> lol
[10:14] <Mulreay> lol
[10:14] <@GlitchPC> Air it...
[10:15] <Trisha> i happen to be wearing a mens dress shirt and thats it
[10:15] <Mulreay> Damn you started me on this Mafia wars... why? I can't help but play it now... it's driving me crazy
[10:15] <@GlitchPC> LMAO
[10:15] <@GlitchPC> about time, Mulreay
[10:15] <@GlitchPC> I see you've been playing
[10:15] <@GlitchPC> it's monotonous, but addictig
[10:15] <Mulreay> Every day...
[10:16] <@GlitchPC> Serpent plays alot, too
[10:16] <Trisha> are you playing it on myspace
[10:16] <@GlitchPC> camerongray...well, that's a different story
[10:16] <@GlitchPC> nope
[10:16] <@GlitchPC> FB
[10:16] <@BC_Programming> facebook I think
[10:16] <Mulreay> yeah me and serpent message each other
[10:16] <Mulreay> man it's addictive
[10:17] <@GlitchPC> Tell me about it
[10:17] <Trisha> i have it on my myspcae page
[10:17] <Trisha> did not know you could play on face book
[10:17] <Mulreay> anyway...
[10:17] <Trisha> jacky are you still with us
[10:17] <@GlitchPC> anyhoo
[10:18] <@BC_Programming> mulreay: that rendering finished! 8 hours... and I have... 16 seconds of footage
[10:18] <@GlitchPC> anyways
[10:18] <@jacky> back
[10:18] <@BC_Programming> lol
[10:18] <Trisha> good how have you been??
[10:18] <Mulreay> So fruits vs veg and Mammals vs Fish
[10:18] <@jacky> Trisha: pretty good. Glad that winter is behind us
[10:18] <@BC_Programming> I want to get a pet monkey
[10:18] <@jacky> :)
[10:18] <@BC_Programming> so when it's bad
[10:18] <Trisha> i need some advise from everyone
[10:19] <@BC_Programming> I can tell guests "excuse me, I need to go spank the monkey"
[10:19] <@BC_Programming> hahaha
[10:19] <@GlitchPC> I need a good program for copying karaoke cds...something that can handle both video, text, and music at the same time without crashing
[10:19] <@GlitchPC> Windows compatible
[10:19] <@GlitchPC> Need to recommend to a friend
[10:19] <@jacky> GlitchPC: ripping the music off them? or just making an image of the whole CD?
[10:19] <Trisha> what type of laptop should i get with out spending 700.00
[10:19] <@Calum> sorry...never even owned a karaoke cd heh
[10:19] <@GlitchPC> I've never tried to copy karaoke CDs before
[10:19] <Trisha> Nero9
[10:20] <Mulreay> That would be against copyright though surely
[10:20] <@jacky> ah.. is a karaoke CD something special?
[10:20] <@BC_Programming> GlitchPC: IMGBurn can clone the disc
[10:20] <@GlitchPC> Will give that a look see, BC
[10:20] <Trisha> or Roxio
[10:20] <@GlitchPC> Will the disk be playable?
[10:20] <@BC_Programming> IMGBurn is the best burning program evar
[10:20] <@BC_Programming> depends...
[10:20] <@GlitchPC> disc
[10:21] <@GlitchPC> well...can always try it
[10:21] <@jacky> BC_Programming: when you say "clone" is that the same as making an image file?
[10:21] <@BC_Programming> depends what plays it... whatever plays it needs to be able to read CD-R
[10:21] <@GlitchPC> kk
[10:21] <Trisha> dvd +rw
[10:22] <@BC_Programming> jacky: yeah, if you only have one drive, you can make an ISO and then burn it to another disc, but I believe IMGBurn also offers a disc to disc copy which does the same thing directly across
[10:22] <@jacky> BC_Programming: ok
[10:22] <@GlitchPC> brb
[10:22] <@jacky> that's a good question.... Glitch... is it CD or DVD ?
[10:22] <Trisha> best sound and will hold music and video's as well
[10:22] <@GlitchPC> not sure...I believe he told me CD
[10:22] <@jacky> ok
[10:23] <@BC_Programming> well he said karaoke CDs so I assumed... either way, IMGBurn should work.... again, as long as the media you burn to is supported
[10:23] <@jacky> Can it make me sound like Frank Sinatra though??
[10:23] <Trisha> in your dreams maybe
[10:23] <@jacky> BC_Programming: does IMGBurn do dvds too? just curious
[10:23] <@BC_Programming> Yes
[10:23] <@jacky> ok
[10:23] <@BC_Programming> I've burned images that I... found...
[10:23] <@jacky> Trisha: hehee
[10:24] <Trisha> laptop computers
[10:24] <@jacky> BC_Programming: I never find any. I do find some CDs and stuff, at various yard sales... with the most interesting stuff on them
[10:24] <@jacky> ah yes
[10:24] <Trisha> what would be the best to buy
[10:24] <@jacky> Trisha had a question about laptops
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> hard question, depends what you need
[10:24] <Trisha> burn music videos e-mail
[10:24] <@jacky> Trisha: translation: keep talking... and they will narrow it down
[10:25] <@BC_Programming> well, pretty much <anything> on the market can do those things :P
[10:25] <Trisha> how much 2 gb or 4gb memory
[10:25] <@BC_Programming> so I guess it comes down to brand/model recommendations?
[10:25] <Trisha> please
[10:25] <@jacky> BC_Programming: could be nice to know what NOT to buy, too
[10:26] <Trisha> yes
[10:26] <Trisha> sony
[10:26] <Trisha> Toshiba
[10:26] <Trisha> emmerson
[10:26] <@BC_Programming> my laptop was $699... Toshiba Satellite L300, 4GB, Dual Core
[10:26] <Trisha> dell
[10:26] <Trisha> hp
[10:26] <@jacky> Trisha: are the ones you are listing on the "good" list, or the "bad" list though?
[10:26] <@BC_Programming> but it's not 699$ anymore, I saw it in the paper for I think 599 or something the other day.
[10:26] <Trisha> really dont want to spend 700
[10:27] <Trisha> ok i am in oklahoma
[10:27] <@BC_Programming> and that's CDN, too
[10:27] <@jacky> BC_Programming: what os did you get with that?
[10:27] <@BC_Programming> well it came with Vista Home Premium
[10:27] <Trisha> ok what is CDN
[10:27] <@jacky> 32bit?
[10:27] <@BC_Programming> it has Windows 7 Ultimate on it now, hee hee
[10:27] <@BC_Programming> CDN=Canadian
[10:27] <@BC_Programming> jacky: 64-bit
[10:27] <Trisha> oh
[10:27] <@jacky> !g 599 CDN in USD =
[10:27] <@jacky> rats
[10:28] <@BC_Programming> ~550 I think
[10:28] <Trisha> what is the difference between 32 or 64
[10:28] <@jacky> I thought we found a way to get the bot to do Canadian, once.
[10:28] <@jacky> Trisha: the world is moving towards 64 bit
[10:28] <@BC_Programming> Jacky: just add "eh" on the end of everything it says!
[10:28] <@jacky> it allows the computer to handle waaaaay more memory
[10:28] <@jacky> BC_Programming: <g>
[10:28] <Trisha> ok
[10:29] <@jacky> Trisha: however, not everything is available in 64 bit programs yet
[10:29] <@jacky> but, it doesn't seem to be a big stumbling block
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> jacky: not technically... Server 2003 is 32-bit but can handle up to 64GB of RAM :P
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> no, I'm running 64-bit, and I run 32-bit programs almost exclusively
[10:29] <@jacky> as MS designed Windows x64 to be able to run 32 bit programs
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> it's more older programs- 16-bit programs, that you cannot run anymore
[10:30] <@jacky> as for server 2003 32 bit handling 64 G of ram... you'd have to explain that.
[10:30] <@Calum> BC - that's 36-bit addressing though, not 32-bit. Not to muddy the waters at all...hehehe
[10:30] * camerongray (camerongra@mib-C9F3F149.plusnet.thn-ag2.dyn.plus.net) has joined #glitchpc
[10:30] <@BC_Programming> jacky: consider this-
[10:30] <Mulreay> wb camerongray
[10:30] <@jacky> camerongray: Hello
[10:30] <@BC_Programming> many people think that 32-bit is limited to 2^32 bytes or RAM, or something along those lines
[10:30] <Trisha> hi camerongray
[10:31] <@jacky> !g 2^32 =
[10:31] <Trisha> ok all i want to do with this lap top is send e-mails
[10:31] <Trisha> watch movies
[10:31] <Mulreay> lol
[10:31] <@jacky> Trisha: sounds to me, like you want a big brand name, with a good warranty.... that is on sale
[10:31] <Trisha> burn my music that i have down loaded
[10:31] <@jacky> :)
[10:31] <@jacky> Trisha: see if Calum agrees
[10:32] <camerongray> Hi Mulreay, BC_Programming, jacky, Trisha
[10:32] <Trisha> and make old photos in to slide shows for mom
[10:32] <@jacky> BC_Programming: ok.. please continue...
[10:32] <@BC_Programming> 2^32=4GB... but 2^16=64K... so how did 16-bit programs use more?
[10:32] <Trisha> i want something that is going to last
[10:32] <@GlitchPC> all petroleum based products last for decades
[10:32] <Trisha> this is the 1st laptop i will be buying and hoping it will be the last
[10:33] <@GlitchPC> oops...sorry
[10:33] <camerongray> Lenovo ThinkPads are really built to last but they are pricey
[10:33] <@GlitchPC> Most any laptop you buy today use the same parts from the same mfrs
[10:33] <@jacky> Trisha: apparently BC likes his Toshiba
[10:33] <@BC_Programming> I have an older model that still works
[10:33] <@GlitchPC> it just depends on the quality of the hardware installed
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> from 1996
[10:34] <@GlitchPC> and the software it's running
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> 14 years and still works when I give it a run around the block
[10:34] <@jacky> Trisha: the other question is: where are you going to buy it? locally? .. online?
[10:35] <@jacky> they might have comments on that, too
[10:35] <@jacky> I suspect that buying local is best
[10:35] <@jacky> let's see what they say...
[10:35] <@jacky> (local, for a laptop, that is)
[10:35] <Trisha> not sure just looking
[10:35] <Trisha> trying to figure out what is better
[10:35] <@BC_Programming> I bought my laptop locally- you can possibly get the same models cheaper on-line
[10:36] <@BC_Programming> I wouldn't buy a used one on ebay though
[10:36] <@jacky> for warranty stuff though... should you need it... are you not better off to buy local?
[10:36] <@jacky> where you can walk in, and say, "here... now give me another one" .
[10:36] <@jacky> vs an online vendor?
[10:37] <@jacky> ( I assumed this would be brand new... no used considered... sorry)
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> depends. it's easier if you get a warranty with, say, Future shop or whatever
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> since then you could just go back to the store
[10:37] <Trisha> please explain the diffrences of IntelCelron, Athlon Single core, AMD Athlon Neo, Pentuim,and a AMD Athlon Dual core Processor"s
[10:37] <@jacky> would you know... is Future shop like our Best Buy?
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> instead of having to get RMA, ship it back etc
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> we have best buy as well
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> future shop is better, IMO
[10:37] <@jacky> but, the same type of store?
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> yeah, mostly electronics
[10:38] <@jacky> ok
[10:38] <@jacky> now.. let's answer that last question
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> Celeron: cheaper, low cost CPU. avoid this if you can.
[10:38] <Trisha> what is better and why
[10:38] <@jacky> there's one down...
[10:38] <Trisha> ok
[10:39] <camerongray> I'd say that the Athlon Dual Core/Pentium are the best
[10:39] <@BC_Programming> Athlon and Pentium are names used by AMD and Intel respectively as a "name" for their CPUs, the Athlon line has been around since the late 90's and the Pentium has been around since the mid 90's
[10:39] <@jacky> Trisha: I'm not up on the details of hardware, especially the processors used in laptops. As far as AMD vs Intel goes... I think of it sort of like Chevy vs Ford. You can argue it 'till you are blue in the face....
[10:39] <@BC_Programming> or maybe early 90's...
[10:40] <Trisha> i be a chevy girl
[10:40] <camerongray> Trisha: What sort of budget do you have?
[10:40] * GlitchPC (Mibbit@mib-3E0BE34.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[10:40] <Trisha> under 700
[10:41] <@jacky> Trisha: for what it is worth: this computer I'm using right now... I think I built it in '98 or '99... has an AMD processor it in. I've had others with AMD. All were great. I've had one with Intel. It was great too.
[10:41] <camerongray> cool
[10:41] <@BC_Programming> heh, I still have my older PC that was the exact same configuration as jacky's is now, :P
[10:41] <@jacky> I think it flip-flops back and forth. Today, AMD might be the better deal. Six months from now, it is Intell.. six more months, back to AMD.
[10:42] <camerongray> I have a laptop similar to jacky's - K6-2 400mHz
[10:42] <Trisha> by all means i am not a computer wiz i dabble alto with cars Chevy being the one i love
[10:42] <@jacky> BC_Programming: do you have a website handy, that you could visit, and give Tricia the link? such that you could point out a couple good laptops? not necessarily to buy from that site... just to be able to point them out?
[10:42] <@BC_Programming> jacky, also, it's important to consider, that even if their CPU deal is better, the table may turn when you consider the motherboard, since they need different boards nowadays
[10:42] <Trisha> \K6-2 400mHz I have no clue as to what this is or what it does
[10:43] <@jacky> BC_Programming: yes. I think this old mb here, can use either. Socket 7
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> that's just camerongray. he mentions that everytime somebody says the words "old" amd" or "Super socket 7"
[10:43] <@jacky> Trisha: that is describing the cpu, and giving the speed
[10:43] <camerongray> lol
[10:43] <@jacky> just a name and a speed
[10:43] <camerongray> I can get started on really OLD
[10:43] <Trisha> not metrick goober
[10:44] <Trisha> ok
[10:44] <camerongray> Trisha: What sort of screen size do you want? e.g Is it being kept at home so you don't mind larger or for mobile so smaller?
[10:44] <@jacky> BC_Programming: Trisha also asked about 2G vs 4G of ram, a ways back. What is yours? and what do you recommend now-a-days?
[10:44] <Trisha> boyfried has a dell, a voio and a gateway
[10:45] <Trisha> he likes his gateway
[10:45] <@jacky> Trisha: cameron has a very good point, about size
[10:45] <@BC_Programming> laptop is 4GB, desktop is 8GB. never ran Vista with less then 4 so really don't know what it would be like
[10:45] <Trisha> i would like the most memory
[10:45] <@jacky> Trisha: then do memory based on $$, when the time comes.
[10:45] <Trisha> ok
[10:45] <Trisha> what is better windows 7 or vista
[10:45] <@jacky> BC_Programming: won't Trisha be automatically getting Win7 though?
[10:46] <@BC_Programming> most laptops that come with 2GB are upgradable to 4GB later on
[10:46] <@BC_Programming> Windows 7 and Vista are essentially the same requirements wise
[10:46] <@jacky> 2G of desktop mem is around $60. How much for laptop mem though?
[10:46] <Trisha> what is easier to use
[10:46] <@BC_Programming> I haven't run either with <4GB anyway
[10:46] <@jacky> Trisha: either will take just a little getting used to. It is just part of life.
[10:47] <camerongray> Trisha: You in Canada or US?
[10:47] <@BC_Programming> US
[10:47] <@jacky> an Okie!
[10:47] <camerongray> cool
[10:48] <Trisha> USA Baby
[10:48] <Trisha> Damn Strait
[10:48] <@jacky> ( we don't spell check in the US, either.) heheehe
[10:49] <Trisha> should i even conceder a refurbished one

[10:50] <@BC_Programming> msg Mulreay http://bc-programming.com/images/borgcube.avi
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> crap
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> oh well
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> http://bc-programming.com/images/borgcube.avi
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> that's a rendering
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> big though
[10:50] <Mulreay> lol
[10:51] <Mulreay> swaving
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> didn't want to change the topic, lol
[10:51] <Mulreay> savingf even
[10:51] <camerongray> You could get a refurb but not many of them have Win7
[10:51] <Mulreay> feck
[10:51] <Mulreay> saving even
[10:51] <Trisha> ok
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> personally I wouldn't but that's more preference then anything
[10:52] <Trisha> what does it mean when it says it is a satellite laptop
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> that's just a model name
[10:52] <@jacky> 
[10:52] <@jacky> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834114788
[10:52] <@jacky> 
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> Toshiba has a few lines- Qosmio , Satellite, etc
[10:52] <@jacky> BC_Programming: check that out, and give us the good and bad
[10:52] <@jacky> about it
[10:53] <camerongray> This one is $779.99 so is overbudget but has really good specs: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dell+-+Inspiron+Laptop+with+Intel%26%23174;+Core%26%23153;+i5+Processor+-+Black+Obsidian/9693173.p?id=1218150183860&skuId=9693173
[10:54] <@jacky> camerongray: what Trisha is looking for, is the defintion of your opinion of "good specs"
[10:54] <@jacky> camerongray: can you list and/or describe?
[10:54] <@BC_Programming> jacky's link is a good start, it's certainly a good price
[10:55] <camerongray> oh yep: specs are
[10:55] <Trisha> ok what is II X2 dual core
[10:55] <@BC_Programming> only thing I can see is it's got 2GB, but, at the same time, you could always upgrade to 4GB later down the road, and 2GB should be enough to do what is desired
[10:55] <Trisha> ok i want 4gb
[10:55] <camerongray> Intel? Core? i5-430M processor <--Pretty Decent Chip
[10:55] <Trisha> not 2 not 3 but 4 gb memory
[10:55] <camerongray> 500gb HDD <- Huge for a laptop
[10:55] <@jacky> Trisha: you should know that Newegg is a huge online vendor of stuff. Their prices are usually very good, and hard to beat. However, they are still "online", and for a laptop, I think I'd sooner deal with somebody face to face, and pay a little more for that. We're just using newegg as a reference point for conversation.
[10:56] <@BC_Programming> camerongray: $779.99 << OVERBUDGET.
[10:56] <Trisha> i agree
[10:56] <Mulreay> jacky are you around for a while and or later for some queries?
[10:56] <Trisha> and yes 779 is way over Budget
[10:56] <@BC_Programming> we're not contractors, we don't inflate costs, lol
[10:56] <Mulreay> heh
[10:56] <Trisha> i know this
[10:56] <@jacky> Mulreay: leaving soon... then back again later
[10:57] <Mulreay> ok
[10:57] <camerongray> woopsy :P
[10:57] <Trisha> i am just wanting Options and opionions
[10:57] <@jacky> <Trisha> ok what is II X2 dual core << Athlon II X2 is the name that AMD gave the cpu
[10:57] <@jacky> dual core means that it has two cores
[10:57] <@jacky> old cpus had one
[10:58] <@jacky> now, they have them with 4
[10:58] <Mulreay> Opinions... I have many of them
[10:58] <@jacky> and some with 6 I think
[10:58] <@jacky> means more power
[10:58] <@jacky> for what you want, dual core should be way plenty
[10:58] <camerongray> Not power as such, means that it can multitask better
[10:58] <@jacky> camerongray: isn't that more power? :)
[10:58] <@jacky> ability to do more, in the same amount of time?
[10:58] <@BC_Programming> we're not trying to out-pedant regarding terms anyway... a rough translation is better performance
[10:59] <@jacky> excellent
[10:59] <@jacky> that's what I wanted.. down to earth term
[10:59] <@jacky> tnx
[10:59] <Mulreay> heh
[10:59] <Trisha> thank god
[10:59] <Trisha> we are back on planet earth
[11:00] <Mulreay> How a man can slip from fantasy to the most useful infomation baffles me
[11:00] <Trisha> i was just looking at bestbuy
[11:00] <@jacky> Trisha: for what you described, *I* think the Athlon II x2 would do nicely
[11:00] <Trisha> they have a gateway
[11:00] <@jacky> it does not have performance like some more expensive models
[11:00] <@jacky> but.. so what?
[11:00] <@jacky> you are not doing things that need it
[11:00] <@BC_Programming> Trisha: can you give us a link?
[11:01] <@jacky> yep.. copy n paste the link here, please
[11:01] <camerongray> I found this one: http://tinyurl.com/y578ptk <-- Looks pretty decent
[11:01] <Mulreay> BC_Programming the download died....
[11:01] <Trisha> AMD Athlon" II X2 dual-core processor M300; 4GB DDR2 memory; 6-cell lithium-ion battery; DL DVD?RW/CD-RW drive; 15.6" widescreen; 500GB hard drive; built-in webcam; Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
[11:01] <Mulreay> It just said error
[11:01] <@jacky> Trisha: how much $$ ?
[11:01] <@jacky> Trisha: and... the link

[11:02] <camerongray> That is a good deal but gateway aren't the best make nowadays

[11:03] <@jacky> 
[11:03] <@BC_Programming> Mulreay: try again I suppose? in the meantime whet your appetite with this: http://bc-programming.com/images/borgclose.png
[11:03] <@jacky> camerongray: I noticed that it had 4g of ram, vs 2g for the toshiba, yet was the same price....
[11:04] <Mulreay> I get my new internet on Thu so this will no longer be a problem.. had to push it back
[11:04] <@BC_Programming> oh ok
[11:04] <@jacky> did anybody else try Trisha's link? no worky for me
[11:04] <@BC_Programming> the pic was just one frame of the short
[11:04] <@BC_Programming> not loading here either, I don't think
[11:05] <@BC_Programming> timeout...
[11:05] <Mulreay> Where is that from BC_Programming?
[11:05] <Mulreay> That image?
[11:05] <camerongray> same here - no link
[11:05] <@BC_Programming> I made it
[11:05] <@BC_Programming> in 3ds-max
[11:05] <Mulreay> really?
[11:05] <@BC_Programming> yeah, it was a LOT easier them it looks
[11:06] <Trisha> http://www.bestbuy.com/
[11:06] <Mulreay> wow

[11:06] <Trisha> laptop
[11:06] <@jacky> BC_Programming: are most laptops ddr2 ?
[11:06] <@BC_Programming> I think so, probably some ddr3 ones
[11:06] <Trisha> thank you cameron
[11:06] <@jacky> BC_Programming: worth it to consider ?
[11:06] <Mulreay> I have to go to the shops to get Dinner brb
[11:06] <@BC_Programming> k
[11:06] <@jacky> Mulreay: see you later
[11:07] <Trisha> bye
[11:07] * Mulreay is now known as Mulreay|shops
[11:07] <@jacky> camerongray: your link is not loading for me
[11:07] <@BC_Programming> ddr3 is only in the super high-end ones though afaik
[11:07] <Mulreay|shops> later jacky
[11:07] <@jacky> BC_Programming: so, for Trisha, not to be concerned? just go with ddr2 ?
[11:07] <Trisha> http://www.bestbuy.com/
[11:07] <Trisha> what is that
[11:07] <Trisha> ddr2
[11:07] <@jacky> type of memory
[11:08] <@jacky> a specification
[11:08] <Trisha> oh
[11:08] <@BC_Programming> yeah, only other one you'll fine with new laptops would be ddr2
[11:08] <camerongray> hmm
[11:08] <@jacky> and, I think, you are learning that, for you, when you see it mentioned, not to be concerned with trying to find ddr3,
[11:08] <@jacky> there's one thing you've got today
[11:08] <@jacky> :)
[11:08] <@jacky> I suspect that DDR3 memory would cost you more
[11:09] <@BC_Programming> my desktop machine is DDR2... DDR3 was way to expensive, I would have gone way over my 1K budget at the time
[11:09] <@BC_Programming> I probably still would-
[11:10] <@jacky> BC_Programming: 4G of DDR3 is a little over a hundred bucks here now
[11:10] <@BC_Programming> especially if you're just using it for things like e-mail and music
[11:10] <@jacky> that is 2 by 2G
[11:10] <camerongray> One thing I will say about that gateway is that it seems like a Packard Bell one here (PacBell and Gateway are both owned by Acer) and I was looking at it today actually and I wasn't that impressed with the build quality. Screen wobbled and felt a bit cheap
[11:10] <@BC_Programming> jacky: my point exactly :P
[11:10] <@jacky> just for reference
[11:11] <Trisha> see that is what i am talking about
[11:11] <Trisha> i would have never know that gatway and pacbell are both owned by acer
[11:12] <Trisha> was it that acer had a big recall on their laptops of some sort
[11:12] <@BC_Programming> actually, EVERY laptop manufacturer get's their laptops made by a handful of companies
[11:12] <@jacky> I like Acer monitors though
[11:12] <@BC_Programming> you never see or hear their names anywhere, though
[11:12] <@BC_Programming> I don't even <remember> them....
[11:12] <@jacky> BC_Programming: how did YOU choose a laptop?
[11:13] <@BC_Programming> like I said, most important thing, was wireless- second, for me, was keyboard layout
[11:13] <@BC_Programming> this is where the advantage of a local store comes in
[11:13] <@BC_Programming> see, you cannot possibly try these laptops out online- but lost places have some models setup that you can try out
[11:13] <@BC_Programming> most* not lost...
[11:14] <Trisha> see i have this lg flatron monitor on the desktop aand i love the quality of the resulution on the screen because i do wear contacts/glassed
[11:14] <Trisha> and get bad headach's form looking at my mom's monitor
[11:14] <@BC_Programming> computers made me nearsighted :(
[11:14] <@BC_Programming> I totally need glasses.. but nobody else knows....
[11:15] <Trisha> she has a compact Passiro
[11:15] <@BC_Programming> compaq Presario
[11:15] <Trisha> whawt ever
[11:15] <@BC_Programming> my Brother has one of those
[11:15] <@BC_Programming> seems like a alright machine
[11:16] <Trisha> i am not an english wiz kid
[11:16] <@BC_Programming> of course they ask me my opinion on what they should get
[11:16] <@BC_Programming> and they get something totally different
[11:16] <@BC_Programming> why did they waste my time? srsly
[11:16] <@jacky> leaving for a while. be back later this evening. Trisha: good to 'see' you again. Best of luck with your shopping.
[11:16] <Trisha> problem is when i have to use her computer wit in min of looking at her monitor i get a headach from the monitor
[11:17] <Trisha> bye jacky
[11:17] <@jacky> :)
[11:17] * jacky (the_kink@mib-7C8D5A0E.slsbmd.east.verizon.net) has left #glitchpc
[11:17] <@BC_Programming> are they CRT (TV type) or LCD (flatscreen) monitors?
[11:17] <Trisha> it is an alright machine
[11:17] <Trisha> she bought it strickly for the price
[11:18] <Trisha> it is a flat scren
[11:18] <Trisha> screen
[11:18] <@BC_Programming> hmm, well I don't know why it would give you a headache. must be maladjusted
[11:18] <Trisha> see that is a concern when i go to by the laptop
[11:18] <Trisha> as to what screen type
[11:19] <@BC_Programming> there is only one screen type- LCD
[11:19] <Trisha> ok
[11:19] <Trisha> i want the best bang for the buck
[11:20] <Trisha> however i dont want to buy something that is going to give me a headach after being on it for a few min
[11:21] <@BC_Programming> actually, it might be brightness...
[11:21] <@BC_Programming> my laptop gives me a headache if I have the brightness up to high
[11:21] <@BC_Programming> but I don't think I get a headache because of the brightness, but rather the very high-pitched squeal it emits
[11:22] <Trisha> lol
[11:22] * Mulreay|shops is now known as Mulreay
[11:22] <@BC_Programming> I can barely hear it but I'm certain it causes it
[11:23] <Trisha> is their a way to tell what type of monitor it is
[11:23] <@BC_Programming> um
[11:23] <@BC_Programming> they are all LCD...
[11:23] <Trisha> or am i just stuck
[11:23] <Trisha> ok
[11:23] <Trisha> so i can set the res on it
[11:23] <@BC_Programming> huh? what are you referring to?
[11:24] <Trisha> resulition
[11:24] <@BC_Programming> if you mean laptops, they only have one resolution- since LCDs only have one resolution
[11:24] <Trisha> of the screen
[11:24] <Trisha> did not know that
[11:24] <@BC_Programming> you can use lower resolutions... but they always look awful and weird
[11:25] <Trisha> ok
[11:25] <Trisha> i have to let hte dog out brb
[11:26] <Trisha> ok

[11:35] <@BC_Programming> what's the problem?
[11:35] <camerongray> I need to have a thingy (IF Statement) that says "If control is not on form then"

[11:35] <@BC_Programming> hahaha
[11:36] <@BC_Programming> at mulreay... not camerongray
[11:36] <@BC_Programming> camerongray: you mean, if control exists on the form, or if a certain controls parent is a particular form?
[11:36] <Mulreay> Wow he has redirected a message to me...
[11:37] <@BC_Programming> lol what is it?
[11:37] <camerongray> Basically I have code to add a web browser control to a form but I only want it to run if one isn't already there
[11:37] <@BC_Programming> ahh
[11:38] <Mulreay> Someone on the fourms here created a great thing on the history of the computer and posted it in "other" I think. I was wondering if it was you? I would really like it for a presentation I'm doing.
[11:38] <Mulreay> heh
[11:38] <@BC_Programming> oh yeah I remember that request being posted somewhere, as well as the history thing
[11:38] <@BC_Programming> camerongray: are you storing a reference to the control you added in a variable?
