yeah, some mirrors will get better results for some people... looks like you found the perfect one for you. It all has to do with how far you are from the servers...... this is why I offer choices, say thank you to all the people who donate those mirrors THANKS MIRROR DONATION GUYS! -D

I used to write it as TestMy.net -- but the past few years I've written it as testmy.net .. even if I start a sentance with 'testmy.net' I still leave it lowercase. I always find myself going back and making stuff lowercase when I'm using a program that trys to 'fix' it for me -- drives me nuts Good to know that almost everyone else agrees with me that it looks better all lowercase why is one question "testmy.net No caps" and another "testmy.net" -- am I missing something or am I correct in thinking that IT'S THE SAME THING!! haha -D

niiiice, ya almost hit 10mbps!!

i've got everything back up. We were hit with a little web based attack. I'm be working tonight to make sure these punks won't be able to mess with us anymore. The bigger a site get.. the more people want to mess with it. I'm suprised we went this long without another attack, it has to be a record for testmy.net (made it a couple of months this time).. haha. Although, people still try to hack my SSH at least 100 times a day (no joke), little do they know they're playing in the wrong port, bah ha ha. Anyway.. sorry all you TMN fiends. But it's back online now. -D

I watched this show about this savant named Daniel Tammet. He was simply amazing. He can do complex math equations in his head in seconds, he recited pi to the 22,500th place over 5 hours with 6 people checking his answer... and he knows 9 languages (actually 10 now)... he says he can learn any language in only one week. In the show, as a challenge they ask him to learn Icelandic and he not only learned the language he learned it well enough for the locals to say that he had very good grammar. The guy is amazing. His abilities were brought on by a seizure when he was a little boy and he's been able to solve incredible mathematical equations and memorize immense amounts of information in his head since he was only four. The way he describes how he solves the problems is wierd, he visualizes numbers as objects and problems as a landscape... he says that he doesn't even have to think about the problems his mind just solves the problem instantly. He surpassed the calculators answers on almost all of the math problems the researchers gave him... and when they did the equasions on a computer he also surpassed the answer the computer gave. I truly believe that we all posses the ability to do these things but just don't know how to. ... I hope in my lifetime we find out how to tap into this amazing resource. There isn't much information on The Science Channel's website.. but there was two bonus clips (one of the clips shows how they tricked his mind into solving the problems wrong by messing with the way he imagines the answers) http://science.discovery.com/convergence/brainman/brainman.html a couple more results I found on the guy, if your interested you may also want to do a google search for "Daniel Tammet" -- Also keep your eye open for the show on the Science Channel called "Brainman" it may show in your listing as "Human Computer" http://www.mymultiplesclerosis.co.uk/misc/danieltammet.html http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/main.jhtml?xml=/health/2006/07/10/hsavant10.xml

Best mouse in the world! I love mine too... Yea, I just pop mine on the charger every couple days for an hour or so and it's good to go. Cool thing is that if it runs out you can put it on the charger for like 10 seconds and get at least 5 minutes out of it... awesome mouse, works on EVERY surface without a problem. Optical was good.. but lasers are the best.

You know what.. I may do this very soon. This actually give me a cool idea. I'll post more info when it becomes availible. Thanks for stoking the fire... got an idea brewing now. -D

What happened to them?

aw, thanks dad.. lol

They just came in... all I have to say is WOW. You seriously can't turn them up past half way. The bass is distortion free and hits HARD. It nearly sounds as clean as my home theater and that's like a 1000 watt sony system. I highly reccomend these. I liked my old creative 7.1 system... but this 5.1 system blows it out of the water. You can see the quality difference right out of the box, the cables are at least 2 gauges larger than the creative system and everything is much heavier. The total package weighs in at over 40lbs... everything is much bigger and better than I expected. I thought you had to pay at least $300 for something this nice, I guess times have changed for the better. -D edit: pictures >> http://www.testmy.net/tmn_album/index.php?path=L0NvbXAvc3BlYWtlcnMv&page=1 as you can see I used a beer cap so you can judge the size -- and a CD in another frame. The frame with the CD is blury because of all the bass.. lol. And the picture of the wires is showing you the difference between the new wires and the wires of my old creative 7.1 system. By the way, the mids and highs are cripser than my home theater system...... and that's a really nice system -- GET THESE! lol

I was thinking more along the lines of 'Ecstasy'

niiiice, I can't wait!! pimp!

My new speakers come in today! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16836121121 I can't wait to hear them... does anyone have these, or has anyone heard them? -D

Well, I'll be VERY suprised if it's any good... it just sounds SOOOOO stupid, the concept is stupid, the name is stupid and from the previews I've seen the computer animated snakes look stupid... and anyone that would be scared about snakes being on a plane is also stupid...... snakes don't fuckin' hunt down humans, lol. I know it's a movie and you're supposed to use you imagination but damn.. a line has to be drawn somewhere. It sounds like a rental at best, imo the ONLY reason it will do any good in the box office is because Samual L. Jackson is in it AND they have spent like a billion dollars on advertising this sucker (and when I say sucker I mean that litterally ). ... It's a RENTER! (but only a renter if you have one of those unlimited rental plans, hahaha) -D

That has to be THE stupidest movie title EVER... And the plot sounds stupid. Do you know if it's supposed to be any good? I don't want to read the spoiler, just in case I see it one day. -D

Your mirror must be down right now... I'm getting an error. And when I try to visit your domain directly I get nothing. hummm But, based on the scores you pulled I added the "great mirror" tag next to your 4th mirror. It must have just been me that wasn't able to pull a decent score off that mirror. -D

damn man.. you have a SICK ass connection

I just want to share a cool shortcut that I found on accident today. I use Internet Explorer 7 which has tabbed browsing. I also use Mozilla Firefox which also has tabbed browsing. I personally can't live without it now. Even though I still have multiple browsers open most of the time I have a BUNCH of tabs within each and I float around many pages at once. Some of you reading this THINK they know where this is headed... but you're WRONG jack! You most likely think I'm about to tell you about the [ALT]+[TAB] shortcut, well I'm not... but I might as well explain that while I'm on the subject. 1st, The Quick Application Switching Shortcut... Better known as The QASS, just kidding that not a real accronymn, hahaha - Please note that this is NOT what this articles is about, so keep reading after this because you may just learn something. But as I said before, since I have mentioned this I figure I should explain it for people who don't know what this shortcut is. [*]Quick Application Switching... Type 1 The first type is the main type and is used almost all of the time when you're talking about application switching. To perform this action do the following... [*]hold [ALT] [*]hit [TAB] A nice little time saver

It's nice to beat people... but when you are beating someone on satellite did you really win? ... poor satellite users... now they..... they always lose. lol

Shug..... you are nuckin' futs Water is really good at starting threads that have a great deal of member participation -- she knows how to get them talkin'

well, lol... I approved it just now. I'm sorry, but people who are learning English come off as very weird sometimes. It must be frustrating to learn our language. I wish him luck, I just wish there was some way to get my point across as to why I do the things I do here. It's not out of disrespect, quite the opposite actually... I did those things out of respect for our users and in the case of blocking his email it was done out of respect for him. I have a responsibility, but if he wants to leave over a misunderstanding so be it... at least none of our users got a virus or Trojan. -D

not a problem, if you'd like to delete your account please go into your profile and click "delete account" in the menu within the page to the left. All I did was do what needs to be done to keep our users safe from threats.... and someone who nobody knows posting a link to a EXE is a threat. I've also removed your email address from your post above, this is to protect you... I advise not to post your email address in forums or anywhere publically viewable, unless you want to get a huge amount of spam (there are bots that search the internet for email addresses and then either sell the addys or spam you themselves). In the future, when you sign up at a forum you may want to read the rules before posting.... it would avoid a headache like this in the future. http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-13204 -D
