Make sure you get a big big auxiliary cooler for your new baby, or she might get a fever.

my point wasn't to show its drawing ability, but the numbers. how can a number of 292 even be possible?

i get this image of people walking backward, because their refresh rate is set to 85 and even though they are going forward, the drawing is 3 times faster, so they are actually stepping back

i know its not doing that, but after surviving 5 years of strobing images at 15 to 30FPS, i cannot help myself. in effect, it would be revers strobing cause the card is faster than the monitor is

That ... or the card would clock its self to the monitor (because it wouldn't show a proper picture otherwise) [addsig]

learned this new trick tonight.. no more dloading *taboo* movies for me

Why do all that crazy stuff with movies when you could go here!

Works like a charm, every time! Give it a try. It's a one step process, too.

So what does this do, is it a program that changes divx movies so that it can be onto a dvd or from a dvd to a divx file.

all it does is decodes DVD. thats all i can say without crossing the *taboo* line.

doesn't create DIVX's, doesn't create AVI's, just decodes.

if you need/want more info, you will have to take it to the PM's

The gods must hate me

Today was the first day since I got my new PC that i had nothing to do. I was hoping to get in some mapping.

Last night I go to sleep feeling tired but otherwise OK, about 1 a.m. I wake up with severe cramps. I rush to the bathroom.. you can imagine the rest I am sure. Not a lump to be found anyplace.

Today, I have been sick all day.. sleeping,s**tting,sleeping, and s**tting.

Today sucks. but, I am at home, doing nothing..... else.

*blushes*

what is amazing, most illnesses come along gradually. you know that in a few days you are prolly going to be bed ridden. but diarrhea is different.. it say "SURPRISE" here i am.

to be woken up at 1 in the morning... well it goes without saying.

i had heard however, that some sort of a stomach flu was making its rounds.. :/

It's rotavirus. Most people will suffer from vomiting for two to three days, and diarrhea for less than a week. I've been seeing tons of this infection in the office lately.

Drink plenty of water, but not too fast. Take small sips. Otherwise, you might throw up. In addtition, taking some Benadryl might help with the nausea too.

some of you may not know my history much, but i sleep little. tis some sort of a disorder i am not sure about, but in spite of my being tired, i can only sleep for 2 to 4 hours at a time.

anywho's

i have slept most of today away.. was in bed till 1.pm

/me is off to sleep some more. i had hoped a bath would help, all it did do was wash the sick smell away. i still feel like crap. (no pun intended)

thanx satch.
