    WTF? - Walmart refuses sale

    If you didn't like their attitude when they spoke to you, vote with your dollar & shop elsewhere. Money talks!

    "I'm sure you will want to have the "last" word" Unlike you then! Well, since you insist :) ............ "and we would never agree" - I actually do agree with some points you have made, just not all of them. And I respect the way you have made & explained your arguments. "there would always be...

    My chess application on X10

    Hehe. Thanks for this. Your program tempted me into playing chess again for the first time in years! My moment of glory after winning was short-lived when I remembered that I had been playing in the most easy of your 3 levels! You have done really well to program the game even to this level...

    !!!! The NEW Biggest thread !!!!

    Since the use of AdBlock for Firefox was discussed some time back in this thread, I thought this latest news story may be of interest. Evidence of a war between the authors of the AdBlock & NoScript add-ons has prompted calls for changes in the way all extensions are written, after one of them...

    Homepage-Friends

    Thanks -I'll give this a look. Perhaps you could post back in this thread when you receive your payout so that we can know the site is bona fide? So many sites disappear before they pay out, or just set extremely high thresholds or find excuses to invalidate your claim. For people such as...

    Busted Again

    Hmm....Perhaps the process one has to go through to unsuspend one's account could re-enforce the TOS ; Perhaps remind the x10 member of the log in not post rule? Perhaps ask the member to paste a copy of the TOS into the unsuspend form (thus proving they at least know where the TOS is, even if...

    Busted Again

    I'm still baffled why we get regular complaints here from noobs about having to make posts on x10, when they actually don't have to post. :dunno: It's been a while since I first signed up, & the process has changed since then. Isn't it made clear enough at sign-up about having to log in once...

    Battle of the Browsers

    Re: Battle of the Browsersto Agreed. Mine has a habit of crashing every now & then. And even though I like to leave it running with several tabs open, it needs to be regularly fully closed down & restarted - otherwise it gradually becomes more & more sluggish. That said, I still prefer it to...

    I've just realized that...

    "the population continues to grow by over 250,000 per year" - thus indicating that the current culling measures are a waste of time as a means of population control. "the EU which just recently (today) has banned all trade in seal products" - is this a strong enough message to you that the...

    WTF? - Walmart refuses sale

    Why not just go back & have a polite word with the manager? I'm sure they can clarify their position for you, & if you deal with it courteously & can prove your age, are less likely to have problems there in future. Alternatively, come to the UK. Shops sell alcohol to 18 year-olds here, so your...

    I've just realized that...

    digitalimages - Some fair & balanced points. Rest assured, no-one as far as I could see was condemning your whole country - just those particular actions were coming under criticism. Whilst I would agree that the culling is no different to many other similar methods that mankind has for...

    !!!! The NEW Biggest thread !!!!

    Mmmmm......strawberries :drool: (My arms & legs have grown back now, thanks to a regular diet of ichwars' magic strawberries) We had our mini Spring heatwave here a month or so back. It's all gone downhill again weather-wise since then. Good luck to those of you doing exams soon. It can be...

    Thanks. I had fun experimenting with it - but can't see any practical use for it!
