Its a nice wee box with room for expansion and it can be yours for FREE, NADA, ZIP. Well not quite, YOU have to pay for SHIPPING the box from me, to you.

 

ok, thats it, on with the competition,

 

Quote:later today i will boot the machine up and i will ping www.google.com, to win this box, you have to tell me from the moment i press the ON button to when i can open a cmd prompt (or cli) and type ping www.google.com and get a ping reply from www.google.com, how long will it take on this box ? for example:- i guess 3 minutes 45 seconds.  

Now that's cool isnt it, well, what if i forget to plug in the ethernet cable ? that could take a few extra minutes ? either way, i'll time it and as soon as I get a PING reply from www.google.com, that'll be my END time and i'll subtract the start time from that to get the result
 

ok ? easy huh ?

 

The first person with the nearest correct answer (in seconds) wins and only one guess per person

 

reminder of the rules:-

 

* you pay for shipping

* you must be a member of linux-noob.com

  Ubuntu keeps locking up.
Posted by: godskalk - 2005-05-30, 10:27 AM - Forum: Ubuntu - Replies (15)


My Ubuntu distro keeps locking up, atleast everytime the screensaver goes on.

I bet this is a video card issue (ati 9800 pro), since in Windows i gotta use 4x agp instead of 8x agp or the computer locks up everytime i play a game or just random.

 

I've installed the fglrx drivers and they work fine, i have 3d acceleration and all. Tried to set the AgpMode option to "4", but it still freezes.

 

Anyone have a tip on what i can do?

 

I checked if i can set the max\min agp usage in BIOS but i can't. :(

  How did you do that?
Posted by: lerum - 2005-05-28, 08:58 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (6)


Well I'm experimenting at the moment. No overclocking here :)

 

And yes it is a real MAC OS X 10.3

It can do most things my iMAC G5 can.

 

This is PearPC 0.4pre emulating the powerPC.

Hey guys, I'm leaving for basic in a lil over 15 days now. One of the things I was wanting todo before I left was make a giant botnet and start a channel and just let it run long as it could. (I'm going to be gone for ~8 months) Do any of you by chance know of anybody that could help me get this going? I don't really care if they kill the processes while i'm away, but just don't delete all the files for them or w/e. If any of you know anything, plz lemme know!

  Ode to happy
Posted by: Randall - 2005-05-27, 01:15 PM - Forum: Jokes - No Replies


Ode to happiness

as I get excited to see you tonight

Thinking of how happy you will make me

as if feels every time like a first date

I get dressed and put on my attire

I get my car washed and waxed to pick you up

I pull up to your place of residence

I walk in and ask for you

they tell me to wait and you will be out soon

as you come out my heart races and can believe the beauty I see

my hands become sweaty and my words start to stumble

As i open the door to my car I help you in the front seat

close the door and getting more excited by your beauty

as we arrive to the party I see your sweating

I can tell that you are as excited as me

I help you out the car picking you

as we enter the front door every one looks at you

all the eyes were on you my beauty

for you are the most beautiful thing at the party

Feeling jealous I take you in the room

running my hands over all over you

I start to run my tongue all over your body

your body making me excited

as I lay you down I take the toy

and slowly enter it inside you

as I start to pump you harder and harder

I can see you sweating more and tell you getting close

then with out words you explode in to my cup filling it up to the brim

as everyone cheers I can tell that you my keg are ready for one long night

  The power of Women

The Power of Women

The Power of Women

 

A couple goes on vacation to a fishing resort in northern Minnesota.

The husband likes to fish at the crack of dawn, the wife likes to read.

 

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and

decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife

decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance,

anchors,and continues to read her book. Along comes a game

warden in his boat.

 

He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning Ma'am.

What are you doing?"

 

"Reading a book," She replies, (Thinking, "Isn't that obvious?")

 

"You're in a restricted fishing area," he informs her.

 

"I'm sorry officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading."

 

"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could

start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."

 

"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says

the woman.

 

"But I haven't even touched you," says the game warden.

 

"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you

could start at any moment."

 

"Have a nice day ma'am," and he left.

 

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads.

It's likely she can also think.

An older lady gets pulled over for speeding...

 

Older Woman: Is there a problem, Officer?

 

Officer: Ma'am, you were speeding.

 

Older Woman: Oh, I see.

 

Officer: Can I see your license please?

 

Older Woman: I'd give it to you but I don't have one.

 

Officer: Don't have one?

 

Older Woman: Lost it, 4 years ago for drunk driving.

 

Officer: I see...Can I see your vehicle registration papers please.

 

Older Woman: I can't do that.

 

Officer: Why not?

 

Older Woman: I stole this car.

 

Officer: Stole it?

 

Older Woman: Yes, and I killed and hacked up the owner.

 

Officer: You what?

 

Older Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.

 

The Officer looks at the woman and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within minutes 5 police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the car, clasping his half drawn gun.

 

Officer 2: Ma'am, could you step out of your vehicle please! The woman steps out of her vehicle.

 

Older woman: Is there a problem sir?

 

Officer 2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and murdered the owner.

 

Older Woman: Murdered the owner?

 

Officer 2: Yes, could you please open the trunk of your car,please.

 

The woman opens the trunk, revealing nothing but an empty trunk.

 

Officer 2: Is this your car, ma'am?

 

Older Woman: Yes, here are the registration papers. The officer is quite stunned.

 

Officer 2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license.

 

The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer.

 

The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.

 

Officer 2: Thank you ma'am, one of my officers told me you didn't have a license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up the owner.

 

Older Woman: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too.
