No.

Moron.

I know that you didn't expect or want an answer, Doug, and were merely seeking an opportunity to parade your ignorance and arrogance in front of the world, but you did ask:

...wait a minute, you're telling me that scientists have been preaching Godless evolution all this time without a legit fish-to-tetrapod missing link?! Well what were you using all this time on the fossil tree, science fiction? Luckily, no gap is so great between species that can make some scientists lose their faith in a dogmatic fundamentalist allegience to Materialist Darwinism.
And the answer is no.

Moron.

You're welcome.

Ze Goggles, Zey Do Nothing!

For a forum devoted to high-end video systems, this is mind-bogglingly hideous.

Beneath And Beyond

Persistent bastards.

go2url.be have now sent us more trackbacks than we have posts. And we have a lot of posts.

How's that spam thing working out for you, guys? Improved your Google ranking much?

Heh.

Guys

Just because you're a little behind in doing the laundry is no excuse for wearing your girlfriend's clothes. A violet singlet with a plunging neckline might look great on her, but trust me, it doesn't suit you.

It's The World Wide Web, You Maggots

I've been playing with the trial version of Paint Shop Pro X, and it does almost everything I want, so I decided to buy it. Online price is only US$89, and they throw in a free copy of Animation Shop 3. I don't know if I even want Animation Shop, but hey, it's free.

So I log in and start placing my order, and add a couple of extras (two resource kits for the price of one, $29.95), and then I get to the name-and-address part, and it won't let me choose Australia for my country.

Because it's the US and Canada online store. Only.

Hmm. I try corel.com.au. Wow, they must have spent minutes setting up that site. But at least they have an online store. Shame that it doesn't actually work.

So I take a quick look at a couple of online computer stores here in Oz. They want AU$249 - just over twice the US price at current exchange rates. (And that's discounted - RRP is AU$299.)

Really smooth distribution channel you've got there, guys.

Reality Check

My regular readers can skip this one, because they will be able to predict its contents exactly based on the previous two posts.

I do not have 24 Mbps ADSL2+.
I do not have 12 Mbps ADSL2.
I do not, in fact, have ADSL at all.
I do not even have a dial tone, which is the one thing I had achieved.

All phone companies suck. Without exception.

Norton Internet Security Must Die

Die die die!

If you have a Netcomm NB3 ADSL modem, and you have Norton Internet Security installed, you will not be able to configure the modem. Neither the automatic configuration program, nor the manual configuration through your browser will work.

I actually had to get the customer to telnet into modem - fortunately, they were reasonably cluey - before Norton revealed its evil presence and I twigged as to what was going on.

This was, of course, after we sent them a replacement modem.

Die die die! Die Norton die!

Die, Cityrail, Die!

Okay, so you needed to close the North Shore line between Christmas and New Year's for trackwork. I can accept that.

But that doesn't mean you can screw up every other train service in Sydney!

It took me 45 minutes just to get from Museum Station to Redfern. Normally, that takes about 5.
