    Internet Explorer Vs. Firefox

    IE is only as secure as Firefox if you install a bunch of addons (which are hard to find for IE) and disable ActiveX. Also, it's far more susceptible to spyware and adaware unless you use programs like Spybot S&D to patch it up.

    Suspended...

    There's a link on the left that says "Unsupension Request", it will take you where you need to go. And if it's forum inactivity you are suspended for, you should be able to unsuspend yourself.

    fopen() and file_get_contents() Do not work on PHP Advanced

    Ok, I fixed it. Apparently, one of the arrays couldn't get data from file_get_contents(), so I reverted to fopen() and now it works. Edit: Great, one run of my script instantly got me suspended for high resource usage. Did the limit get a lot lower or something? This used to run hourly just...

    Internet Explorer Vs. Firefox

    That's probably because IE, being a part of Windows, is partly loaded on startup (using many of the same files as explorer.exe), though this poses the problem of stability and security. Switching from IE to Firefox takes longer than switching from Firefox to IE and back, thanks to the IE Tabs...

    Google india labs page hacked

    If someone could hack into Google, they would have done more than place an ad. If that wasn't placed by a pass-thru website, then its fake. Or else, the most someone could figure out was an XSS/injection vulnerability and chickened out testing it for fear of the Google.

    Lets Settle This Once and For All, What Came first the chicken or the egg?

    The person who brought up the 'unspecified type of egg' actually made me change my mind. I believe the egg came first, because the chicken-like creature that would later evolve into a chicken was laying eggs before it could be considered a chicken.

    Nvidia or ATI

    Up to the Geforce 8-series, Nvidia has been a clear winner. But with the release of the Radeon 4850 and 4870, ATI has taken the lead for value. Heat issues can be overcome with a simple fan-control program or patch, and they are only slightly more unstable than Nvidia cards atm because drivers...

    fopen() and file_get_contents() Do not work on PHP Advanced

    Do you have any idea why I didn't get any errors before the upgrade then? Also, I am getting a new error: Warning: ini_get() has been disabled for security reasons I need that function for the same reason I needed set_time_limit(): to prevent the script from timing out before saving its state...

    Wireless G vs. Wireless N

    It depends. The full N coming in 2009 might be better, but right now, I just stick with SRX 400 (MIMO 802.11g). I get a full signal two blocks away and 240Mb/s LAN speed.

    is GTA IV better than san andreas

    It's improved a lot in realism, but that's not always a good thing. I've heard GTA IV called "Grand Theft Normal Boring Life".

    Lets Settle This Once and For All, What Came first the chicken or the egg?

    I'd have to say the chicken as well. Although it wouldn't really be considered a chicken, evolved from some asexual multi-celled organism...I'm not really sure, as I haven't learned the part of evolution that deals with how sexual organisms came to be.

    fopen() and file_get_contents() Do not work on PHP Advanced

    The file_get_contents() is now working, but I still keep getting those other 2 repeating errors. I think this may have crashed my cron manager, because I am no longer receiving emails and it is no longer being triggered automatically, even though it is set to run on an hourly basis.

    Football Or Rugby

    I understand that by football you mean the American soccer, but by rugby, do you mean the American football?

    How do YOU feel about having kids?

    Not any time soon, but yes. I've still got college and a job to look forward to first.

    Internet Explorer Vs. Firefox

    I think Firefox is better overall. Microsoft has gotten much better with IE 7 & 8, but they still don't follow a lot of HTML standards (messing up page displays), they are so integrated into the OS that they can make the whole system unstable if something goes wrong, they don't autosave data...

    How fast is your internet?

    Wow... Ok. Well, I don't really need anything faster since most sites cap downloads anyway. And IE always downloads slower than FF for me.

    Where do you buy your pc?

    Newegg.com would have to be my favorite source. To the one who mentioned an electric shock, building a computer isn't much more difficult than assembling a bookshelf (for me anyway), it's not rocket science. If other people want me to find computers for them, I go to Dell because I can usually...

    I might be buying a server soon... Need info!

    It also depends what kind of server. I've hosted small websites, a UT2004 server and a TeamSpeak server on a low-end Pentium 4 box (at the same time) with a 2Mb/s upload rate, and (surprisingly) everything ran smoothly without a hitch or lag.

    What do you like about Linux?

    I use both Windows (XP and Vista) and Linux (X-Ubuntu and CentOS) and this is what I fell about Linux: Pros: secure, open-source, free, best OS for server hosting IMO, nice set of free and supported applications Cons: KDE and Gnome run slower than Windows XP on all of my computers, little...

    Best Current Gen. Console?

    I own a Nintendo Wii, I love Brawl and Corruption, but I find the Wii to be in a league of its own. Nintendo's games are just downright fun, but their consoles aren't targeted at any sort of new technology or hardware (motion sensitivity is not new, but it was done very well for the Wii).
