  1. Cat Chat....wtf

    As a noun, "affect" is stressed on the first syllable and denotes an emotion that's expressed thru body language, for example, and thus doesn't have anything to do with the noun "effect," which, among other things, means result and influence. Though the verbs "affect" (= influence, have an effect ) and "effect" (= bring about) can be used in the same sentence (with two different meanings), people tend to mix 'em up unconsciously, or because they think they're interchangeable. I like cats much better than dogs. contempt
  2. Cat Chat....wtf

    "[...] a man's best friend." The period after James isn't necessary; a comma would do: God just killed a kitten, James, a kitten! Strike three. James should hereby be stripped of ... . However, the period after the word "three" can be replaced with an exclamation point, a semicolon, or even a colon. Very true, Riggs. What's with all the "lol" pictures? contempt PS: I understand you're merely correcting your older bro, Havok.
  3. I was watching part of AC360 on CNN and, unprepared as I was, quickly took 3 pictures of live shots of Ground Zero. View from WFC (probably 3): http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/inextirpable/P1100112.jpg View south toward NJ: http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/inextirpable/P1100116.jpg View from the Hudson toward 2, 3 and 4 WFC (right to left): http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff215/inextirpable/P1100117.jpg contempt
  4. Taken from Henda's [PLAYER's READ THIS FIRST]... thread: How to make a screenshot Taking a screenshot is easy, all you do is press F5 while playing and it will save a screenshot to the screenshot folder in your cstrike directory. C:\Valve Steam\SteamApps\AccountName\counter-strike source\cstrike\screenshots I amended the path. First find your Valve Steam folder, then follow the path from there: \SteamApps\..., till you get to the screenshot folder. contempt When you write a reply you have a "manage attachments" option at the bottom. Click on it and attach up to 5 screenshots by way of "browse." Alternatively, you can go to any image-hosting website, such as imageshack.us or photobucket.com, upload the screenshots and post the link in your reply.
  5. The anniversary of these tragic, ignominious events continues to evoke some of the saddest memories in countless people around the world and those having to live without their loved ones alike. I'll always extend my condolences to the families and friends of those who perished in these three mindless and utterly abominable acts of terrorism, even though I can't do so in person. Sorry to hear that, JonQ. My thoughts are with you! Always remember 9/11! contempt PS: This thread coulda been titled "Anniversary of 9/11" in order to avoid a "7th...," "8th...," etc. thread in years to come. But, of course, that's unimportant. Thanks for the thread, broncoty.
  6. Gee, Henda, what's gotten into you? The part "True idiot you are and nothing" doesn't make any sense, unless you phrase it like this: "True, idiot, you are nothing." However, it's not nice of you to say that. It evokes the saying "Be nice to people on your way up because you'll meet 'em on your way down," if you catch my drift. As an EO, ain't you supposed to set an example and be respectful of everybody, including fellow admins? If the chat ain't worth fixing/you don't give a damn about it, why is it still on the website? Btw, some people did use it time and time again. contempt
  7. It's been broken for over a week now. Hank, Pancake and I were using it at the same time and all of a sudden it crashed, our names disappeared, and we couldn't use it ever since. In other words, fix & improve the Chat Session section or take it out. (I blame Hank ) contempt
  8. He made it at 2 a.m. (ET). contempt PS: nice video, Jack.
  9. Kinda reminds me of this thread. What's TPS? I have a DELL LCD with a native, crisp resolution of 1920x1200x32. contempt
  10. Rootkits

    Thank you, Arc. You could be right. I do know, or so I found out, that the HKLM\...\SAC* and SAI* keys are no rootkits, which leaves two to solve: key 2 and 5. contempt
  11. That's a very cool idea, Jack. I'ma do the survey soon . contempt
  12. Rootkits

    Hey folks, As I was trying to help Sol w/ a problem (MountAppFilesystem() failed: SteamMountAppFilesystem(240,0,0,ox1306fd74) failed with error 1: the registry is in use by another process,timeout expired) and looking for the links to free anti-virus and anti-malware software in "my" Tweaking Companion, I came upon the Rootkit section and decided to download and run RootkitRevealer to scan for rootkits. For info on what a rootkit is and does, visit: Rootkits - A New Malware Trend RootkitRevealer v1.71 After running the program, I found myself puzzled by the results it came up with: I hope y'all can give me some input on each of these paths, and tell me if they're malicious and need to be deleted. contempt
  13. I find the mass suicide and this:"[...] way back when i was [...]" amusing . The song is "Mad World" by Gary Jules. link contempt
  14. Looks nice and is innovative but the requirements are way too high for me. recommended requirements: Intel core 2 duo processor DX9: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512MB RAM (NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GT or better), DX10: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 or better 2 GB RAM 8 GB free disc space Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ series (Optimized for use with Creative Labs EAX ADVANCED HD 4.0 or EAX ADVANCED HD 5.0 compatible sound cards) Internet connection for activation I'm not gonna buy new hardware or a new computer to be able to enjoy it anytime soon. contempt
  15. Wow, this Compiz Fusion demonstration video was impressive. I especially liked the Wobbly Plugin (funny) and Group/Tab Plugin, tho I didn't quite catch the point of the Firepaint Plugin. Is it just for show? Do you need a really fast computer for the plugins? Thanks for posting! contempt
  16. I luv it . It's the most amazing bridge because it's situated against the backdrop of a very picturesque, mountainous landscape (north), separates the Pacific from the Bay, and connects SF w/Marin County. In addition, the pillars are grand and it offers a great view of SF, the Pacific, the Bay, Marin County and the GG Natl. Monument. contempt
  17. Meh. Thanks, Silentfox. I just saved it as a JPEG and it's merely 206KB big . :stu: Tho I constantly change my backgound, here's my current desktop w/ my own pic of the gorgeous GGB. contempt
  18. Thanks a bunch, Lure. I never knew how to work w/ the Print Screen key :o . However, I can't upload the picture anywhere as it's too big (6.59 MB). How did you get yours to be only ~200KB big?? contempt
  19. Looking good. What screenshot program did you use? contempt
  20. Top 5 Games

    Wow this is a nice thread. To tell you the truth, I have no clue how to rank my top 5 games, seeing as I got gobs of top-notch games lying around. It goes something like this: #1 UT2004 #2 Quake ]|[ Team Arena #3 Max Payne 1/2 #4 CS:S & H-L2 #5 Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy I'll extend this to top 10: #6 Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors #7 GTA: SA #8 CnC Tib Sun Firestorm/Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge #9 Prey #10 RTCW/Enemy Territory Well, this is too darn tough. I guess, these top 10 games are all interchangeable. Other really great games I own include: GTA: 3, GTA: VC, Mech Commander 2, The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay D's Cut, Unreal Tournament GotY, AvP 2 + expansion, BloodRayne, Far Cry, Halo, SoF 1/2, AoE 1 + expansion, Half-Life, Half-Life Opposing Force, TFC (would be #1 if I was playing it right now). contempt
  21. Don't know you but still: !! contempt :bath:
