I refuse to pay for (or use) something simply because such a simple thing as allowing the use of individual images for each dashboard pane was denied to me.

Good for you.
I said the theme owns you, not the act of buying a theme.

JacksonCougAr · Post by **JacksonCougAr** » Thu May 01, 2008 1:08 pm

Good for you: you obviously bought one: now get away from me you filthy thing.

Your defense technique is lacking.

JacksonCougAr · Post by **JacksonCougAr** » Thu May 01, 2008 1:14 pm

No defence; just a statement of desire.

Whoosh.

I hate how McCain and Clinton are trying to create tax relief on gas prices. It just doesn't make sense. Shouldn't we be trying to create another source of energy instead of bandaging gas? Relief isn't going to be productive at all in the future because this will just encourage the rampant gas consumption and then a few years later, we'll end up with the same problem, but worse.

Wind and solar energy are vastly inefficient at the moment. Electric/hybrid cars are a good alternative, but that electricity has to be produced by a power plant which mostly uses coal.

Nuclear energy is an extremely efficient alternative (only problem really is where to put the waste), but people hear the word "nuclear" and immediately freak out. Not saying we should use it in our cars, but people should not be so hesitant to build nuclear power plants.

Yeah last i knew nuclear power stations are some of the safest and less pollutant types of power generation going.

Nuclear power is like the commercial airline industry. Probably the best alternative to anything out there for mass use, yet dangerous enough to frighten the majority away. The Chernobyl power plants were run by a communist government, it was inefficient, but the Russians wanted to be progressive.

I hate that people base their opinions on such limited evidence, but, of course, there is nothing we can do except wait.

Actually, that's an idea. Summer is coming up; everybody start infiltrating Green peace and start the nuclear power movement.

Nuclear power is the way to go.

I like pink.

Anyways: xp pro decided to do something very Vista-esque today.

It started to jump the blinker thing randomly about as I type.

Example (just typing normally):

Code: Select all

I hate vista so damn much. I wishlame vista for all my that vista would die. I b probslems. it is super queer at it made this happen to xp. I hope that vista is removed from commercial use and microsoft issues and apologythd I  for creating such crap software, as well as issues a free refund to all unfortunate vista owners. That w. Now I am going to smash my head into a wall and scream because this is uble annoying to deal with wile typing.nbelievaould be funy

Anybody got a fix?

Does it occur everywhere, or just in the browser?
