It's because they memorise content based on syllabus. No matter, If the content is right or wrong, They don't care.

Jotting down is common for girls. They simply lack of hands on experience.

P.s- I'm talking mostly about students who like to get high percentage rather than learning knowledge, and applying that.

3rd ashes test, surprisingly aus won by 267 runs.

Well, After getting out for just 187, England was down, and out. Collingwood is completely out of touch, and deserves to be at the bench for the rest of the series. Poor tactics by Strauss in the field, and horrible batting by all England players.

Australia will be full of confidence on boxing day. It would take some serious performance by England to turn the tables.

Eoin Morgan needs to come back for the rest of the matches. Overall, I think, It's going to be very nail-biting series.  :rockon:

Thanks man. Ill suggest u to make a new thread its useful for many ppl
i dnt like playinh games on consoles.i clocked assasins creed 2 on ps3 at my mates house in canada on his ps3 but still nt fun stuff on consoles

I have always played games on Sony Playstation consoles. There are many great games that are not available for PC, and can never be developed. And, No hassle of installing, and tweaking on PC.

E.g Metal Gear solid: Guns of the Patriots.

Jailbreak is the term used for Apple products I guess

PS3 is not jailbroken but if you have older firmware on it you can bypass the actual DVD Drive
you need is a usb drive that has a patch on it and you turn on the ps3 pressing eject button and power button (my friend does that) and then u have your game on ur harddrive and u just put any disc in the drive .
USB patch makes it act like DVD is actual dvd but it runs from harddrive.


All you need is a ps3jailbreak usb which works for all firmwares. Just plug in the usb, and download loader from their website, and play all games.

Here is the link below

I am using it now, I give my review after few days.

not bad so far.

Let me know if you face any problem.

Cool thread. Ubuntu has really stepped up the game with that Windows installer. Although the Ubuntu OS will run slow due to NTFS hard drive, it is perfect for people who don't want to go the hassles of getting a ext2/3 hd for Ubuntu.


wubi Installer is for new users so that they can install, and use ubuntu without any hassle. wubi has some issues but never mind if users liked ubuntu, They can install ubuntu on dedicated partition anytime using live cd.

i was wondering if you know how to set permission to the /var/www folder. Its been giving me a headache for a couple hours now. Basically i can't change the content of that folder. add/delete but i can execute tha html file in there.

I tried:

sudo chmod 755 /var/www/



try

cd /var

sudo chown username:username www 

That should do the trick.
 
You can also create sub directories inside www for different websites, and give same above permission to those directories. This is just for security reason.

I got this but I'm such a noob. It's so confusing to use.

You must be using IE if this is confusing for you.

Microsoft Magic

MAGIC #1

An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the
computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty cool....and
Unbelievable. .. At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this
Happened!
TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER


MAGIC #2


For those of you using Windows, do the following:

1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it.

is it just a really weird bug? :-??


MAGIC #3


Microsoft crazy facts


This is something pretty cool and neat...and unbelievable. .. At Microsoft
the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!

It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself...

Open Microsoft Word and type

=rand (200, 99)

And then press ENTER
Then see the magic!

It's not magic.

CON is just a reserved name, and there are many more in Windows.

"bush hid the facts" is just a bug. There are also other strings.

Rand function generates the following text
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
where 200 is no. of rows, and 99 is no. of columns.

First of all don't take offense of my words. It not about money If I can spend 3 grand on my pc ,getting a copy of a  MAC OS wouldn't pinch me.
I think its a personal Choice.

I like linux. You might have installed in last few years. But I had that about 7 years ago in my pc when not a lot were there. It looked pretty good and on Pentium 4 was running pretty good.

My machine is pretty good you can read my signature.Now I am making a new pc this xmas waiting for good sales. I am having AMD now I might go for Corei5/i7 lets see.

Ubuntu I've heard alot about this . Open source softwares I don't mind since anyone can contribute to it. I got a spare harddrive I'll try and installing it.

Please suggest the list of MUST HAVE softwares so that we can see what we need

My first linux distro was Fedora core 4. That was back in 2005. Since then, I have tried many linux distros.

Between, Money was not only the factor considering choice of operating system. I would not even use Windows or Mac OS x even if it was given free. There are other aspects to look at.

Let me know your experience after installing ubuntu. I might create thread of post-installation guide of ubuntu some other time.

seems like u into this free stuff i mean linux and all.
I just installed in couple of systems
i know abt Fedora core 3-4 when they were out i had a copy too but I am not sure if i want one of those man. too complicated since we are so much dependent on windows.. i dnt even like MAC rubish

Well, Fedora core 3-4 is too old. Have a new copy of ubuntu, and use as live cd then tell me your first expressions. People are just used to using windows. And It's hard for them a change. Lot of people don't know about Gnu/linux. They are willing to spend  huge bucks for operating system, applications, Anti-virus, and other system utilities. ( except pirates)

I use Gnu/Linux because it allows me to have complete control over my system. I can hack it the way i want. If something doesn't work, I can report a bug, and get it fixed next day or later. It allows me to be involved with community, and take my feedback or suggestions. Free software will continue to improve, and get better.

Excuse me, Mac OS X is not rubbish. It's just too costly to afford.

M using windows 7 its faster on my pc too im gona attach this pc to my lcd tv permanent n making a core i5 for myself this xmas


Windows is, and will be faster on newer PCs because of the more memory, and faster processors.

Try to install windows 7 on old machine, and see the difference.


And Install puppylinux on old machine, and let me know.

MSTP, how do you know so much about linux distros?

I have been using linux for quite a while now.

Is there a way to download files onto iPod/iPad using Linux?

The default music player " Rhythmbox"will let you transfer your songs onto your ipod. When you plug your ipod, ubuntu will detect as storage device. Open the partition, and transfer what you want to.

There are lot of cool media players for linux. Banshee is also good one.  :hihpanga:

Hey MSPT, what do think of the mint distro?

It's a ubuntu based linux distro. Basically, It's a tweaked version of ubuntu with new theme, and all other extras. Like, It comes with all codecs preinstalled, and few other tweaks. You can install all codecs, and prorietary softwares with just one click.


It's good as well for new users. Linux mint is one release behind ubuntu releases. So, You will have to wait 6 months for new features of ubuntu to use in Linux mint.  :huhh:
