  1. Not sure what it could be bud ... One way to find out what's happening is to use windump. It's very easy to download and run that program ... just get the exe file and there is a pcap dll file that you should also download and put in the same directory as the exe file I think (just follow their instructions on their download page). Then, when you run windump, it will print out all the incoming and outgoing packets in your PC. From there, we can tell what address the data is going to.
  2. That's your answer to everything. Didn't you say the same thing when someone asked what he should do about his boss that wasn't letting him surf the internet at work?
  3. While a regime like Sadam's is in place: absolutely not. When there is no regime in place, then a lot of things can be made to happen. Is it like flipping a switch? Of course not. Can democracy be imposed in general? Sure why not. What will happen specifically in Iraq? ... I have no idea. I never understood a single word that has come out of Bush's mouth. I also get very nervous when he talks ... I just get this really bad feeling in my stomach wondering what (if anything) is really going up in his head.

    Exactly. Come on Domino ... get back to classical Newtonian world. It makes much more sense at our scales of being.

  6. Well, if you want something to happen, you HAVE to make some sort of move since he is not going to do it. He thinks you want to be friends. That's as much as I am qualified to say so I'll shut up now
  7. Well, this is technically not the first move, is it? I think it all depends ... it depends on if he is currently with someone else, how serious he is with that other someone, how seriously you have gotten those initial feelings back, how serious those initial feelings were, and whether the fact that he is with someone else had anything to do with you getting the feelings back. It depends on a LOT of things. Welcome to hyeforum.
  8. What ... 2pm? You know it's weird ... I don't hear the gardner here anymore ... he shows up I think Thursdays at 8AM but I haven't heard him for a long time. My brain has made all the necessary adjustments to ignore my ears during that time. But there is this ONE crow ... damn I hate that stupid thing. I swear one morning that bastard is going to get a NICE up close encounter with a 9mm slug from my SIG if she keeps that up I say she since there's no way a male anything could make that much noise for no reason.
  9. Well, fortunately it's often about WINS ... so keep the good newses coming!!!
  10. Alex, I'm not sure how often he checks here so maybe you can try sending him a Personal Message (PM) as well ... His member profile is here. You can send a PM to him from there and he may see that in his email.

    The Man And The Coffin

    Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Ok, I have done my reading quota for the day. I'm gong to watch some TV now.
  12. this just occured to me ... It's kind of ironic that the internet began to proliferate mainly due to the existance of the telephone circuit network ... but now, it may end up being an entity which consumes and replaces that archaic system! People used phones to get online and now they are going to use online to get on the phone!
  13. It'd be interesting to see how on earth they are thinking of possibly regulating "internet telephony" ... I think they should slowly start to appreciate the fact that the line between data, audio, and video is disappearing ... and as things are evolving, for better or worse we are going to end up with "packets of info" flying around (whether through wires or wirelessly through the space). Thanks in large part to TCP/IP which for better or worse seems to be here to stay for a long time to come.
  14. However, one thing he has done well is that on average, he's got much better looking moderators over there. Unless he copied those pictures from some other places on the web as well just to pretend Don't know what Vava looks like but me, Movses, and Azat really bring down the average over here ... Harut, notice I didn't include you in this ... but I'm very glad we have Nairi and Nvard to help in that department
  15. Looks good to me ... it should output "The area is 217 square feet" followed by a new line.
  16. What? You DARE to doubt the "Priestess of Nar"? That's blaspheme
  17. That's why I love electronics ... as soon as you think you have it all, it's time to upgrade. It's an endless search for true happiness.
  18. They are so copycat. Shame on them. http://forum.hayastan.com/uploads/photo-241.jpg Hey, it's our old buddy Arthur! Domino, have you ever heard the quote: "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."? If I remember my British literature, I think it was, British clergyman and writer Charles Colton who said it. In this case, I think we should be very flattered. He has done a FANTASTIC "job"!
  19. Couple more from yesterday ... man, I'm REALLY going to miss southern california http://zr2.cs.ucla.edu/Sip/rubi/jeep_tree.jpg http://zr2.cs.ucla.edu/Sip/rubi/jeep_smoke.jpg

    I received it but it was sooo explicit, I thought it was my own subconsious playing tricks on me.

    Well, hagarag, I hope you don't take this personally but even after I'm dead, I would probably prefer to go visit nairi Wow ... who knew being dead could be so much fun ...

    Death

    Going back to funerals as the "public event" ... after thinking and rethinking about this just now, I realize that most of my dislike for the event is most likely due to the extremely religious nature of the funerals I have been to (i.e. Armenian). I think it's more a side effect of my dislike of religeous shows in general than the act of grieving for the dead. This is complicated by the fact that that act of grieving for the dead often seems to revolve around wheeling and dealing with god, in forms of prayer (i.e. God you did this and now I expect you do this this and this after this) which REALLY ticks me off... and of course not too many things tick me off so this says a lot.

    Death

    Well, I guess my fundamental argument here is about "mourning" and "death". I simply do not regard death in general as a sad event. A sad event is a preventable one. A joyful event is one that can be made to happen. Everything else, are just inevitable events ... stuff that happen whether you want them or not and mourning/celebrating in these cases are simply meaningless. In other words, you mourn failure, you celebrate success, and you live/die with the rest. Now having said that, yes, a "tragic dead", i.e. untimely and caused by an accident, murder, or some other factor (not suicide though) can be considered a saddening event. BUT a natural death is NOT something to be mourned. I just do not agree and do not buy into that type of thinking .... booo hooo hooo ... the guy lived to be 95 and is dead let's all cry and mourn? WTF? I will not comment on how people choose to deal with untimely deaths. That IS their personal choice as that often relates to a "preventable" loss and the loss can often seem very huge to those who are close to the dead. Nairi: LMAO about "act" like they care about each other! I totally agree that a marriage ceremony is mostly "acting" and has very little to do with people's real emotions. Especially in our current glendela-hye multi-million dollar marriages Vava: About memories: I made a mistake about how I phrased "forget" and move on. I meant forget the death in the context of mourning. I totally agree that the memory of the ones that have lived before can be a tremendous source of inspiration in one's life. Armat: About Armenian shallowness ... I am and have been talking as an American in this thread. I think most Armenians would disagree with how I think in this case. America-Hye: Do you really converse with the dead too? I was trying to decipher some symbolism and fancy thought in there but it seems you meant is literally?

    Death

    Hey, I saw a moneky in the zoo stick his finger up in his rear end and then lick it. Am I supposed to do the same? Although I have to admit I have never seen an elephant do that ... it would be kind of funny ... how in the hell can an elephant reach to his or her rear end anyway? But I digress ... Who am I disrespecting Domino? The dead? That's impossible. The dead are dead. They don't care what you do. All this hooopla and shananigans for a funeral is for the living (as vava said). I think the living should just forget the dead as soon as possible and move on.
