    Fitness Thread

    Lately I've been doing a fair amount of different sports... boxing, golf, tennis and some bowling. That, along with the professional downhill skateboarding has kept me on the straight and narrow. What's the name of the game that has running in it? I'm looking to add to my Nintendo collection...

    Kevin Rudd

    I remember watching Kevin Rudd on Sunrise each week and thinking to myself "if he were in charge of the opposition, then I'd be worried..." That was back when I was a Liberal supporter :) It's funny because I only heard this morning that he was leading the Labor party now. When did that...

    Drinking water kills woman

    According to Google, yes, you can :) http://tmst.twu.net/flash/tmem0.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Blk35pDBhLI

    Drinking water kills woman

    Dan, the best thing you can do when you make a quip like that to an EMO is to then whip out a Sharpie and draw a tear on his face. It's gold! Also, speaking of 'pulling' Dan.... there's a show over here called 'Keys to The VIP'. It bills itself as a 'league for Players'. I've never watched it...

    Drinking water kills woman

    Fluffy, that all sounds fair but in my defence, if Dan can get away with crappy analogies every once in a while, I think it's only fair that I can :)

    Drinking water kills woman

    Hmmm... I don't know, I think the title is a little wrong. Was it the drinking of the water or the fact that she wasn't getting rid of it that killed her? I'd say the latter. I mean... if I take a deep breath then hold it in until I die (I know, not possible, but you get the idea...) did I...

    Returned Mail / Undelivered Mail Spam

    Yep. 99.99% of spam use false 'from' headers. A lot of them use headers from known email addresses, as opposed to just made up addresses. The theory is that at least it's from a truly valid email address and so may get further through the spam blocks. Any company that bounces spam like that...

    Registering a domain name

    clon: are you actually looking to register a .au or .nz domain, or a more international domain (.com / .net etc.)? I don't know about the .au or .nz domains, but I use GoDaddy for my .com domains and haven't had any problems with them (touch wood!). If you want to use GoDaddy, don't forget to...

    How to have fun in the country

    There are guys over this way that wait until the dead of winter when the lakes have frozen over then drive down on to the lakes, get up to a decent speed then pull on the hand brake. Apparently you can spin for a fair while and travel a fair way... they say that it's interesting when there's...

    Techies - How can I make an animated GIF??

    Might be easier to do it in Flash... I have a funny feeling you can then export it from Flash to an animated GIF. Or just leave it in Flash if you like.

    Ah, Norton: worse than any virus or malware it claims it will protect you from. Kinda like the Mafia :) I use and recommend AVG from http://free.grisoft.com . It's free and updates every day. I believe Dan uses Avast!, but it has too much Pirate Talk for my liking.

    Techies - How can I make an animated GIF??

    Search for 'gif animator': there's a number of programs out there but I haven't used any, so can't recommend any. The GIF Construction Set from Alchemy Mind Works has been around for years. Here's a tutorial that may be helpful...

    Defragging shouldn't lose anything. I guess, technically, it could in some instances, but in 99.999% of those you shouldn't have a problem :) Could be a failing disk or maybe dodgy hardware drivers (Windows starts to move the file and the driver craps itself... it could happen). Either...

    Computer people

    Defrag 'realigns' the files on your hard drive so that they are contiguous. That is to say, when Windows writes a file to disk, depending on the layout at the time, that file may actually be broken up and spread across the disk. The result is that when you want to read that file back, it jumps...

    No point, really, though... Unless you're within a bee's dick of filling your HD right now, that's not the problem. If you have an IT guy at work, they should be able to reimage it. Just make sure you have what you need backed up...

    Stuck in Parramatta.

    Wasn't there a pisstake commercial that Merrick and Rosso used to do for a clothing store... it was something like: "If you don't live in Bondi, you're too far west!"

    Uninstalling won't speed up your computer much..., defragging helps but if you really want to see any difference, best just to reformat and start again. I'm not going to get into any OS wars here but let's face it: Windows needs a wipe every now and again. It's not fantastic at getting rid of...

    Monday funny

    Whenever I need a chuckle, I like to turn to another 'talent agent' joke... "The Aristocrats!" Best DVD I ever copied ;)
