You can get some nickel... it costs about $.05 for a flat circular piece about 2cm across.

My physics college professor once stated that if you took someone and were able to force a mere 1% more electrons into thier body than they normal have, that the repulsive force of the electrons would cause this unlucky person to fly apart.

I'm feeling an interesting experiment coming on...

It's easy to find torches that screw onte propane bottles (like the coleman ones).

You can also get butane torches.

i dont think the 3 i386 isos form red hats ftp site [/url']are fedora core. And i just want to know what is the system requirements for it are?

Look at the dates on those. 2003. RH is outdated now, don't even bother with it.

And as you can see from the system specs that were posted, it doesn't exactly take a supercomputer to run linux.

all the quick format does is wipe the partition table and filesystem, so i'd be surprised if it took much longer.

as for fs preference, my vote goes to ReiserFS.

system specs? it is a linux operating system. It doesn't care what you use.

Also, red hat no longer exists for the home user. You'll be looking for the Fedora core project.

It's also probably the most popular distro, so you will find versions for any architecture.

Um... do you have any floppies or cd's in your drives? Take any removable media out and then boot.

Yes, it really may be that simple. It's likely that your BIOS is set to boot from the floppy drive first. So if you left some silly data floppy in there it will try to boot without success.

If not, then do as the others have said and boot from one of your repair disks. To change the boot order, access your bios (usually by pressing delete when the system first starts up, it should tell you).

^You can hook me up with those. vpoiesz AT rcn DOT com

I'll take anything, but I guess specifically organic chem and things related to AP chem / chem 2.

Dude, you need to forward the incoming ports, not the outgoing. You have it reversed.

I'll explain a little more. When your computer sends out a packet on a specific port to a remote host, the router will send it no matter what (by default). If the remote host replies on that same port, the router will realize that you requested the information and will send the packet to the computer that requested it.

So if you go to sfn, the router knows to send packets coming from sfn back to your computer. If your sibling is using google, it knows to send the information from google to him/her.

Now, if you are running a server then you are not initiating the connections, remote computers are just sending you information. Normally a router would just ignore the data and not pass it on, because it doesn't know what computer to send it to (and it is a security risk). If, however, you forward a specific port to your computer, it will realize that the remote host is trying to make a connection with you and route the data accordingly.

So if your program uses different ports for incoming/outgoing, the outgoing information will get there fine. But since the reply is coming back on a different port, the router doesn't know that it needs to get sent to your computer. That is why the incoming port needs to be forwarded.

If you look up the differences between active and passive FTP you will get more information and maybe some diagrams to help you understand.

^Many programs use different ports for sending and recieving, so to get information coming to the client you still need ports forwarded.

Those must be some old CRT's. I didn't think that still happened.

Has there been an influx of... um... lamers recently?

Is this compound possible? Someone asked me and I wasn't sure.

I mean, Mg is +2 and O is -2, so you would think you'd just get MgO.

But what if you had the Mg bonded to two O, and then those two O bonded to a third, to make like a square. Would that be stable?

I believe that mercury can be diatomic at times as well.

Are DNS names being resolved? Do you actually see any part of the webpage?

Also, is the NIC PCI or USB?

Just take out enough so that it is back to the line, then measure how much you took out. You can then mathematically determine how much KIO3 you need to add to get the concentration right.

It will probably be an extremely small amount though. Like, so small it's negligible.

lol. Just copy in homeroom like the rest of us.

He's obviously just advertising for them.

I think he's talking about proxy servers with content filtering that schools and stuff use.

Just choosing a proxy server from your browser won't work in this case, since the information will still be sent through your school proxy, which will block them due to content.

You need to establish an encrypted connection with a remote host and view the web page through it. This works on machines with local monitoring too (like CyberSitter or NetNanny). Basically, just telnet, ssh, vpn, whatever into the remote box, then use it to browse.

Yeah, we used to do it all the time when we had dial up.

Just look for some software. It's out there. You'll need a mic and speakers, too, of course.

Suffice to say windows sucks?

This is only very loosely related to chemistry, but it's an interesting read (I may post it in a different forum too).

I think it'd be pretty pointless. The whole point of the pagefile is to move info from the ram onto the hardrive, thus freeing up more ram. By doing what you suggested that would be totally defeated.

Everyone knows that lightbulbs don't actually give off light, but collect dark.

You can see this because when you put your hand underneath the bulb the dark starts to collect under your hand.

And when it "burns out" that really means that it is filled up with dark!

You still can't use DDR ram in an SD slot and vice versa.

DDR is newer and faster, so most new motherboards support it (some have an sd lot too).

I wasn't making fun of him, either. I was just surprised that he got a mobo for such a fast processor but with slower ram.

Now go away and don't bother coming back.
