<0> i'm so tired of that company
<0> i swore them off years ago
<1> yeah pkware is a corporate monolith that must be stopped.
<2> someone already stopped the founder
<0> winzip command line addon.
<0> that'll do
<3> how do i disable my firewall?
<2> xgamer: that would depend entirely on your firewall
<3> i do not know what type of firewall i have. kazaa lite will not connect. i am ***uming my computer is equiped with a firewall
<2> ya, you wouldn't want to just forward a single ****ing port
<2> just disable your entire protection
<2> and get pwned
<2> so you can run ****ty kazaa lit
<2> lite
<2> way to go
<1> people still use that garbage?
<1> wow.
<1> Talk about enduring misery.
<2> last time I used it... about 9 months ago, there was nothing worth having
<1> hotslutatparty.exe
<2> yup
<1> What.was.once.a.nicely.encode.movie(reencoed,****edup).avi
<2> or MP3s that contain nothing but the chorus looped
<4> even better
<0> p2p porno lost its way the day people figured out how to embed popups in WMV
<4> britney.spears.nude.shemale.kiddie.beastiality.pron.blooper.christina.aguilera.lesbian.anal.cumshots.avi
<1> torrents were the nail in the coffin.
<3> you can't get viruses from mpegs or wmv though, right?
<4> and its likely a picture in a movie heh
<3> avi, mpegs, wmv cannot give you viruses, right?
<1> illness - if you put that file on kazaa people would rabdily try to download it too.
<1> and we wonder why so many computers are riddled with crap
<1> xgamer - on kazaa? who knows.
<2> if you're the kind of person who's willing to disable their entire firewall so they can do p2p, then you probably don't make sure you're completely patched
<2> which means pretty much anything can get you
<2> here.is.some.porn.avi.....................scr
<2> pwned
<2> recent vulnerability in Windows Media Player
<2> pwned
<2> disabling your firewall
<2> pwned
<1> I clicked pornviewer.exe and noting happened!
<3> interesting. i used kazaa lite before and deleted it 6months later. my computer succumbed to a virus during that period of time
<2> xgamer: if you really want to do it, just forward port 1221 through your firewall
<2> it isn't that complicated
<5> at what point in the future does society no longer know how to write with pen and paper?
<3> i am not a computer expert, but i found a tutorial on a website that showed me how to do it
<2> digidog: well, I haven't "written" in years, I print pretty much everything
<5> ok print
<2> but I know how to print
<5> whatever
<5> like i hate using pena nd paper when i have to now because it is so slow
<1> I still write by hand now and then. It sometimes forces me to think more slowly.
<5> yes nerp
<1> When I'm trying to meter my ideas out into some kind of order.
<5> i mean more transcription
<2> I take short duration notes using pen and paper
<5> like if i am writing something out from the screen
<5> i hate it
<1> i also keep myself practiced with pad and paper.
<5> this is why god made printers, i know
<2> I don't have any tool for taking short notes
<2> I need OneNote
<1> i could be at a meeting when my laptop and voice recorder simultaneously blow up
<1> i need to be able to switch to pad and pen without a hitch
<1> but i'm a unique situation.
<5> anyone know shorthand?
<1> for short notes, I either use the google desktop scratchpad or I fire up a notepad.exe
<5> i use notepad and f5 ideas
<1> i generally have a notes.txt on my dekstop and I just weed old stuff out of it
<5> ya
<2> hm
<2> good idea
<1> It's really handy. All you need is a box for text
<5> and i have a shortcut key to topne my "notes.txt"
<5> but mine is called "stuff.txt"
<1> and sorting through and deleting **** is a good exercise. reminds you of thigns you might have forgotten.
<1> Spew phone numbers, emails, URLS in there.. later, you go through outlook and add to contacts as you clear from the .txt file
<1> i kinda do that weekly.
<2> I've always tried to use proper tools, like Tasks or Notes in Outlook
<2> but that's so heavy
<2> if Outlook isn't running its a h***le to fire it up
<1> but I create so much notes I have a weekly .doc with the date for filename for interviews and story related notes
<5> i wish onenote was free and integrated into the OS
<5> OMG
<5> I SAID INTEGRATED
<1> that file is open all week basically. if I do an interview, it's in that doc.
<1> if its a phone message, then its likely to go in the .txt
<2> digidog: its a new paradigm
<2> it'll lower your TCO
<5> i hope so!
<2> and improve your BL
<1> sorta a homebrew system but it works for me. I, too, like you Jet, have found that outlok is way too cumbersome for taking notes and such. The task list and note system is totally klunky
<5> no
<5> tasks are great
<5> in a work environment
<5> we live and die by delegated tasks
<1> If your tasks are clearly defined, yeah.
<5> but at work, everyone always has outlook open
<5> at home, i agree
<5> it ****s
<1> but "call some people and get this story done" is a bit vague to just "check off"
<1> and if your tasks are never really "done" so to speak, like me, it's kinda jarring to just cross something off
<1> and one story might involved calling 10 people
<1> do I make 10 tasks?
<5> no
<1> or oen big task that I gotta spend all this time organzing
<5> because what you are doing isnt a task
<5> its a project
<1> then do I put the notes relating to the task in the notes of the task field?
<1> or a note
<1> or a seperate file?
<1> etc.
<1> better to just have one big file, i've learned.
<5> thats not how it works at all :)
<5> and for you yeah
<5> too abstract
<5> "send financials by 10:00 AM"
<5> thats a task
<1> yeah too abstract for me. I tried, but I spend more time managing the software than actually completing tasks. :D
<5> check off, and an email goes to the delegator that its done
<1> I felt like I was trying to document every detail of my workday which I really can't do and expect to get any work done at the same time.
<5> man headache
<1> but I can see how tasks would work well in your example.
<5> plus my calendar and tasks are on my phone synced ota as well
<1> I've managed to contain ALL work on my laptop and all screwing around on my desktop.
<1> it keeps me from having to worry about stuff like synching
<1> shared direcotries or the location of files
<1> I do plenty of writing on the desktop, but when it comes to contacts and correspondence, etc, it's all laptop
<2> Microsoft needs a solution for syncing standalone outlook pst files
<1> I just e-mail myself what I've written when i'm done when I use the dekstop to write
<2> Oh well, the Student edition of Office 12 won't include outlook anymore
<1> then integrate it into my system on the laptop
<2> I guess they figure OE is good enough for most people
<1> Jet - that ****s.
<1> but they put word in works now. :D
<5> oh yay
<5> stomach ache and a headache at the same time
<1> I've begun to realize that with my job, I really only need to buy word and outlook. **** the rest of office, really.
<1> I NEVER use excel or powerpoint
<1> and I can always use a powerpoint viewer if I absolutley had to.
<2> but even if you could buy word and outlook alone, it'd cost you more than office
<5> i cant wait until office 12
<1> in fact, i doubt I'll ever need a new version of word.
<6> nerp: Create a task to create a project to create a task.
<2> I remember when you could buy Word for $399, or Office for $499 or something
<2> I mean, it was stupid
<1> yeah
<1> word is like 89 now
<1> outlook is like 69 or something i forget.
