Hello there,
Sorry, I don't do much with Macs these days.
I suggest you post your question to the computers category and we will both find out who the Mac guru on the site is. :-)

Hi there,
Apparently nobody else here uses "gothspace."
How about a quick trip to their forums:
http://www.darkstarlings.com/bbs/
... where they will be able to answer that question with ease.

Why are the moderators on this webite so rude?
and
My next question...
How was more helpfully to the world?
Princess Diana or Mother Thersea (sp?)?
Also which ones death was more tragic???
Thanks

Hi there,
You were banned for the reasons listed by YG. You were given a 1 hour ban, since it was thought that you were a nice person and your intentions were noble, even though you plainly don't understand what this site is for.
Since you feel a 1 hour ban is insufficient, I will extend it for you
The comment will be withdrawn when you are banned the usual amount of time for spamming.
I will go fix that now.
DN.
P.S. Every year we are invaded by Diana spam for about 3 months. You are the only person EVER to complain about a one hour ban. :-)

when do you put in the detergents in the machine? it's my first time doing and i have no idea how...
please help! (link)
|
Hi there,
Welcome to the wonderful world of doing laundry. ;-)
The instructions are on the back of the detergents you are using. They are usually pretty clear about everything.
There are some variations based on what kind of washer you use, so look inside the lid (since they usually print the instructions right inside the lid on top-loading washers)of the washer, or in the instructions if it is a front loading washing machine.
Have fun.

how do i erase files from a cd ill rate high (link)
|
I can't believe some of the answers you have gotten.
1) DO NOT microwave a cd/dvd. The dye (the part the laser writes to) is based on a toxic substance. You don't want bits of this in your microwave, and the only way to be safe is to replace the microwave with a new one. (Hopefully the answer I am referring to will be edited by the time you see this.)
2) Magnets have no effect, at all, whatsoever on optical media like you are talking about. That person is completely misinformed.
Ok, so how DO you get the data gone? Well, as has been mention, if it is a RW (ReWriteable) then you can format the disc using the CDR creation software on your computer.
If it is a standard CD, they are so cheap there is no reason to worry about re-using them, so discard this one and begin again.
You weren't clear on if you wanted to destroy the disc to get rid of stuff, or to erase and re-use it.
If you wish to destroy the data, you need to destroy the disc.
Now the fun part:
Take the disc out side, find some pavement (asphalt) and place the disc on the ground with THE LABEL SIDE DOWN (The side you write on) then put your foot on the disc and slide it around.
It is very, very easy to ruin a CD or DVD disc this way.
The label side is more fragile that the other side, and this is the reason for doing it that way.
When you pick up the disc, any place you can see through the disc is gone forever.
You can also use sandpaper to do this.
I have a paper shredder that also does CDs and DVD-R discs, but I don't think I have ever used it for that.
Take care, and be careful.

yesterday i went on a 45 minute bike ride... and today my whole vagina/butt area that touches the bike seat is sooo sore and it hurt really bad when i tried to go on a bike ride today.
so should I just stop bike riding? or just ignore it? (link)
|
Depending on how you are built, the standard bicycle seat may just simply not "fit" you.
There are many alternative replacement designs available, all with the end goal of making a comfortable bike seat for everyone... including you. :-)
You can find them in any bike shop, or on the internet.
"The Comfort Seat" is one:
http://www.thecomfortseat.com/
Any variety of "Hornless Bike Seat" will probably help you a GREAT deal.
Here are a couple:
"Mark-V Hornless Bike Seat"
http://www.tesco-shopping.com/bikeseat.htm
"MoonSaddle™"
http://www.moonsaddle.com/
I would wait until you were healed up to start riding one your brand new, slightly exotic, but very comfortable, replacement bike seat. :-)
Good luck!

Yesterday after eating, I got very hot, pale, nauseas, and dizzy. Soon, my stomach began to bloat and all of my stomach muscles cramped up. At first, I suspected period cramps but this wasn't normal cramps and my periods been late for almost two weeks now. My stomach honestly felt like I was exploding. After using a heating pad for several hours, and trying medicines my stomach finally felt smaller but the cramps remained.
Does anyone know what this could be? (link)

Hi there,
I have had something like this... and I can ASSURE you it wasn't anything related to female problems... :-)
I would look into the possibility of a food allergy, or a bad batch of something you ate.
Could be something like a food allergy, but I am not a doctor, and you should see one if you have any serious doubts about your health.
Thought I would throw that out there, just in case.

Hi!
Can anyone tell me where to buy a watch like Jack Bauers Watch on 24 - The Kobold Phantom Chronograph. The on worn by Kiefer Sutherland on the TV show "24?"
Thanks!
P.S. If The Kobold Phantom Chronograph is really expesive can you point me to an imitation, knockoff, copy or fake Kobold Phantom Chronograph? (link)
|
Hello there,
This is a very nice watch, if you are referring to the authentic "The Phantom Tactical Chronograph."
You can find it here:
http://www.koboldwatch.com/products/phantom-titanium-p-30.html
... the current price listed for this watch is $4950, so be prepared to shell out some cash for this television icon.
I don't know of any phony replica watches patterned after Kobold's Phantom Tactical Chronograph.
You have good taste, albeit expensive, in wristwatches.

Im an american citizen but I've lived in Europe my whole life. I've always planned on going back for University, now that it is time to do so, I found out I need to take the SATs. The SAME SATs you all take. In english. I can't do it! I've never studied MATH in english, I definitely will not be able to pass the reading/wriing part of it since the only english I ever speak is during the summer when I visit my cousins! I speak fluently, but I'm way beind in the other areas. And it's not like all I need to do is PASS, I need really OUTSTANDING scores. How do I prepare? I've heard in America you have special books that help you and professors and all sorts of preparations. I don't think I'll be able to get ahold of that kind of material. What should I do? If you've taken the SATs, and you know it was hard for you, and you sense that I wont be able to do it (becase I only have 2 months to practice for it) please tell me now, so I wont put myself through the pain of spending my whole summer studying for it to find out I failed.
Do I have a shot here? Was it hard? How should I prepare? What kind of things came on the test that I should ractice on? Thank you! (link)

how the heck do you beat bubble shooter. im like the only one in my city who hasent yet lol (link)
|
Take your time while trying to beat the game: Bubble Shooter.
Aim carefully.
THINK about which group is best to take out first. Look further up the pile of bubbles to see what will come open next if you clear one group or another, then pick the best one to do based on the color of your next bubble is the shooter (which it shows you in advance.)
Beating Bubble Shooter is kind of random now matter how careful you are because it re-arranges the bubbles on you when they drop down.
You also get a random pile of bubbles when you start a new game of Bubble Shooter... so if you get a crappy stack of bubbles, your game is over before it starts sometimes.
Good luck beating Bubble Shooter!

Ok I buy beautiful jewelry. 99 cent each piece - but they do not look 99 cent - they really look like I brought the bracelets, rings, necklaces at Lord & Taylors, Bloomingdales, etc. Even my mom tells me the jewelry is beautiful. Today, we went to get our hair cuts at the same place. My mom met a friend and the friend said she likes the ring I was wearing. Later on when my mom and I were at the library my mom said to me; Paula noticed your ring; this got me upset because I thought my mom was putting down the 99 cent jewelry. My mom went on to say Paula did not say anything about your bracelet or earrings so I was surprised she noticed the ring. MY QUESTION: Did I overreact and read into my mom's comment and was my mom saying that no one would notice 99 cent jewelry. (link)

Is there a place where I can see my list of previous abuse reports. I went to "show all", and there are only some from this month, and I just wanted to look back at the other...oh about 120 abuse reports I have posted so far this year. Is there any way? (link)

Not at the moment. Once the reports are handled, they are generally over and done.
Please provide the reason you wish to access them and what you need out of it, and I will see if I can help you directly.

http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=495237
yeah i kinda asked that question yesterday even though it wasn't a question.. i just wanna say that i still back up most of the things i said but i do understand that i should have said it in a calmer and not so negative matter. i was wrong & i apologize to those who i hurt (haha) even though you guys all think im a whiny teenager. i'm really nothing like that i was just trying to speak my mind. i really do LOVE advicenators and i'm kinda addicted and i don't wanna leave although many people want me to. some people on this site judge people unfairly, but the majority on this site are nice people and infact give good advice.
& to younggrandma you've always been an inspiration to me and what i said had NOTHING to do with you. in another question i asked, i was happy you told me how stupid and babyish i was acting. it made me change so younggrandma you have nothing to do with the last temper tantrum i had. i hope we can be friends. :]
once again i love MOST of the people on this site. and i hope i dont have too many haters after this =/
well sorry everyone because i really do respect adults and i dont think they are better then me. i just get angry with them sometimes. but its all good. (link)

Hi there,
I guess the thing to learn from this, which I am not sure you have yet, is that by saying what you did, and continuing to "...back up most of the things i said..." you have pre-judged adults, and painted them with a stereotypical brush.
I am glad to see you at least realize YG isn't your mortal enemy. That shows that there is hope for you. ;-)
As for the whole fashion thing... it isn't that you would want to look good, it is those people who follow the current trends because they believe they will look good if they wear what their friends wear, and/or what the TV and magazines TELL THEM looks good.
If you want a real answer to this, ask yourself these questions:
"If nobody I knew had ever even heard of abercrombie, and they sold it at wal-mart... would I still wear it?"
... and:
"If it was on the front cover of every teen magazine that what I wear is the stupidest thing ever made, and that only a moron would wear it... would I still wear it?"
... If you answer yes to either of those you are probably lying. :-)
If you answer no to either of those, then you haven't started to think for yourself yet.
Simple matter of logic. Please don't judge those of us who have already been where you are and are old enough to know better.
The only way to learn is to listen.
I hope you were able to follow the two magic questions, and I hope you were honest in your answers.
Oh, and believe me, if anyone wanted you off this site, I would know about it. My inbox lights up nice and bright when it is time to remove someone.
If you go back to acting the way you were, I wouldn't be surprised if I had requests to remove you, but as it sits now, people have been very forgiving.
Take care.

I started dating this guy a little over two weeks ago and it's been pretty hot and heavy. He's really awesome and I like him a lot. He's leaving tomorrow to go work in California for 2 months to make money. I've known about this since I met him, so it's not a big deal. Well, not until today.
His family had a little party today and my family was invited. Well, one of his friends was there hanging with us. He was really awkward and detached and I felt like I was at some random person's party imposing on them and their friends. There was like a 5 minute period where he actually treated me like his girlfriend and otherwise it was like I was just another one of his friends.
Again, he's leaving for 2 months. When I left the party all he did was give me this awkward sideways hug that isn't even intimate enough for FRIENDS. It wasn't even a real goodbye. I was really shocked about how he acted. He was so different and it pissed me off and hurt a little bit that I was just...there.
It's not like I wanted us to sit there making out in front of everyone, but some affection would've been nice. We're really close normally. We've done a lot together in such a short period of time and last night he told me LOVED me. That's not how you treat someone you love, that's for sure.
I sent him a message on MySpace telling him by and to have fun and I'm intending to leave it like that and let him make a move to call me if he wants to. I feel like a big baby and like I'm overreacting, but it just seemed so rude and just...awful. I don't know how to feel.
Am I overreacting? Is letting him make the next move a good idea? What should I do? Any advice would be great. (link)

Edit: Don't worry the 4 isn't the issue. I did the edit because it was literally 30 second between pressing submit, and the feedback appearing. I figured you skimmed it, got to the first thing that bothered you and left the feedback. I appreciate your feedback. Here are some additional thoughts: I had only what you wrote to go on. From this side of the issue, what you wrote looks incredibly demanding, self absorbed and petty beyond belief. I am glad to know that this isn't the case. ;-) Now, it is also important to note that we didn;t know that was the last time you would see him for 2 months. You said "when I left the party..." not "... when he left for 2 months..." so I thoght you were just pissed because he didn't adequately hug you when leaving a party. And you did break off communications. You said right here that you were intending to leave it like that and make him call you. Lastly, you can't solve something like this yourself. You may get "over" it, but if you don't let him know he did anything wrong (he doesn't know) then he will do it again, and again and again... then one day you might freak out on him and say something like: "You always do THIS!" ... and he will not have a clue why you are bent out of shape. Trust me on this one. I am living through this right now. Something that my wife could have resolved by just saying one sentence, she let eat at her for 8 years. Don't do that. Please. Oh, and about the 4, I was expecting a 1, so no worries. :-)
Hi there,
I hope you don't mind some direct advice.
I think you are way out of line here. You have known this guy for two weeks, and you are wondering why he is awkward with you in front of your family?
How about in front of his family? At two weeks they can't know you very well, and he is going to be on his best behaviour in front of both sets of parents.
You are concerned that with all of the family there he didn't spend the majority of his time with you? That is normal, if you add in the stress of being confronted with both your families together at the same time, it is very normal.
You are hurt because he acted different? Of course he is going to act different. You are used to seeing him in romantic settings, and this is a family setting. If he wasn't different I would be worried.
Also you say you have done a lot in a short period of time... well, I can tell you that being in front of the parents of the daughter you are having sex with, would be horrifying for most guys.
Why do you think most guys never want to meet the girl's parents until they have to? This is why: Because they know that the parents are looking at him knowing what is going on between you. No guy likes that, unless he is only with you to hurt your parents for some reason.
You are confusing love with romance. You say that isn't the way you treat someone you love? The hell it isn't. That he agreed to meet your parents at all after only 2 weeks is practically a pledge of undying love... then he is nervous, so you get mad at him and break off communications... with a MYSPACE MESSAGE?
I am sorry, but that is incredibly immature.
If you are planning on leaving this go, then I will be frank with you: End the relationship now.
If you can't talk about something as unbelievably petty and unimportant as this, you will eventually break up over something mildly important.
If, on the other hand, you are willing to admit that the reason you posted this and worded it the way you did is because your conscience is SCREAMING at you that you are making a mistake... then there is hope.
Call him, and tell him what you are feeling, don't be whiny and bitchy about it, and ask him why he wasn't comfortable loving on you in front of your parents. If you can actually ask that question without having the answer "In front of your parents" whack you in the head, then you are in trouble.
I know guys that haven't met their girlfriends parents after TWO YEARS, and when they do they can't do anything more than hold hands, and even that can be awkward.
Basically, the crux of my advice is to get over your insecurities by addressing the cause. Do you have abandonment issues?
Do you simply not understand the very simple way that men's minds work?
Whatever the cause, get it handled.
Much as you would like it to, after two weeks the world doesn't revolve around you. Wait until there are rings involved and marriage vows before you expect the world to revolve around you. ;-)
Seriously... don't keep this bottled up, or you will destroy this relationship. You will blame him for it, when it is actually your fault, and then you will go to the next relationship and do the exact same thing.
You can fix this once and for all by talking this out with him in a cool, non-shrewish way.
The choice is yours.
Good luck.

At what age do teenagers usually get past basic levels of thought and begin thinking more intellectually?What I mean is...when do they start to form their own opinions,have some idea of what they want out of life,and just generally gain a more adult outlook? (link)
|
I am going to say about 26.
No, not kidding. The people who answered before me said things like 13-14... yet there are an ocean of those people here who have yet to have an original thought.
They buy whatever they are told is fashionable, and would never think for themselves in that respect.
If they go through college right off (big mistake in my opinion) then they should be out and done by about 22-23. This will leave them 3 or four years to NOT get the job they studied for, realize the whole college idea was a bad one because they didn't know what they wanted to do yet... then, and only then, do people start to question the "normal" way of life.
So my answer is somewhere between 25 and 26. :-)
You can do better sooner, but you have to get off the train that leads to that route.
Some people NEVER grow a sense of self and learn to think independently. They may be the majority judging by what we see around us today.
Some people have trauma early in life, and figure things out way earlier than they should.
It is a pity most kids are in such a hurry to give up their childhood, and think sex is the best way to hurry that along. What a waste of childhood. :-(
I better stop, I could write about this all day. :-)
