Are you moving the new mouse over? It'd be kinda dumb to get a new mouse for all of one day.

I did the same. I was trying to collect ants for an ant farm using a straw. I ate a few.

The tech guys? Bah, playing with it yourself is half the fun. The first thing I did on my computer at work was install Sun VirtualBox so I could run linux at work. Pretty sure I bought my mouse and speakers myself too...

Sounds like you'll have an interesting morning on Monday. Wonder when we'll see you on here.

as soon as firefox is installed and running. my boss hires the guy freelance style and only when multiple pc's need work, or doing something more in depth like firewall s*** and the like. i think he's replacing 6-7 computers.

I think I may be slowly converting to google chrome. Becky has been talking about it a lot lately. I downloaded it to play around with and it's definitely quick. Plus, I hear fireNICO wont work after all the upgrades are complete...

i installed google chrome and it errored everytime i started it, but if I opened it with some "other" icon it'd work.

But the "other" icon wasn't the default so if a program wants to browse it'd open up a dead window that errors.

So I'm back to firefox.

Hmm, seems to be working fine everywhere I've tested it. Though features keep being added/removed based on the revision. That's bothering me a bit, so I'm back to firefox for now, at least in linooks.

Don't wait for it to refresh. Instead, return to the thread from another link in a different tab. Your post will be there long before the first tab refreshes. Weird, but it works.

Yeah, I've thought about trying opera, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. If it weren't for fireNICO and the inability to pin tabs in the current dev build, I wouldn't mind using it as my primary browser.

I have noticed this as well. Odd, but it works.

No. Keep it AWD bro. Trust me. It'll do better on launch if it's AWD. That's how I have a f***ing 520 whp Yaris that can break 220 mph.

Also, get rid of those wheels on your S13 and make it a different color. I have two. One is a nice seafoam with all sports parts, except for brakes which are racing and the other is my Pink Panda drift car which rapes. I might be on in a bit so maybe we can drift.
