Anything Forums

I'm allergic to Manadren's blog and he's allergic to my forum. It's a thing we have.....wait....no it's not.

Uhh. . .hmmm. . .What's next?

I'm watching "Tommy boy". Funny movie, I like Chris Farley's comedy.

Ah man, just looking at my inbox, got 29 news items to post. I never get a day where there's not allot, it just keeps growing. I need to find an automated way to do that. But every single site formats their news emails differently. All tech sites should get together and form some kind of standard. Then we can publish an RFC standard or something. Then a news parser would be easy to make based on this standard.

What's an RFC?

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:4, old post ID:30260

I forget what it stands for, but it's special legal documents outlining standards, usually for network protocols.

Ex: the http rfc: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2616.html

One thing I found about those is they tend to leave off details on syntax so by reading that alone you would still not be able to develop a browser, for example.

I'm purposely installing spyware junk on my PC. I never realized this could be so much fun.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:4, old post ID:30305

Why? You crazy crazy man.

It's fun.... it's in a VM though, so it's not my actual machine.

Yeah, but is there a reason like are you testing some sort of uber cool spam detector or are you just after a challenge.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:4, old post ID:30315

Just after a challenge. Want to see how bad I can make it, maybe I can compare it to customer machines. Don't know if I'm that good though.

lol, that's awesome. I hate spyware and viruses but I love manually tracking them down and removing them from the registry and system32 file.

I don't know how my customers do it. After only half an hour of spyware downloading, my system is so unstable I have trouble accessing the internet. But I'm not even a 10th of what my customers give me when I clean their machines.

I don't even work in the field but just with friends and everything...I've seen some pretty messed up machines.

edit:
Including my own before I new what I was doing.

I pretty much botched this win98 install. It's funny how it does not take much. Just shows how bad spyware can be, and how unreliable windows 98 is

Holy crapola, this site looks HORRIBLE in IE. I can tell thre's not any IE users here since I'm sure someone would of told me something. I mean,half the images don't even show up, all the alignment is nullified, cell widths are cruely wrong. Man IE sucks. Then again, it does not help with all these spyware toolbars I'm installing. I got about 4 rows now, about 10 more and I should be good.

LMAO this thing on TV is playing, it's almost like a documentary type thing on a spelling bee, but the way they talk about it,it's like this huge thing. The kids get interviewed and it's like "it's very emotional, if I don't win, I just dont know what will happen to me, I just have to win" and "this is one of the hardest thing these kids will every go through in their life" Ah man it's hilarious.

This should be fun next time I have a telemarketter call me.

Just realized that Iceteks and AF together are using up 2GB of disk space on my host. So I'm upgrading to the 4GB package. Its only about 20 bucks a month (well like 27 for me ) so it's decent.

Woot just opened my first paypal account. So exciting to do online financial stuff.

Turns out 20US is only $25.98 CAD. What is bush doing to the US economy?!?! Oh well, that's good for me (but now my google checks arn't that big either compared to before )

I checked that out (AF on IE) but didn't notice that it looked bad.

Woah my sister got my dad to babysit my nephew, and he crapped all over the place. Youtch I never saw my dad so pist. I don't blame him in a way though, since she said she'd be back with my mom in an hour and instead it was 3 hours. See, when a woman says anything having to do with time, you have to multiply it by 3.

If I crapped all over the place I'd be pissed too.

Lol yeah, but swearing at a 3 year old is a little over board. But ya, I'd be pist especially because their "back in 1 hour" was really "back in 3 hours"
