You might want to keep it off until it dries completely. After it's dried, it should be back to normal unless you have lots of minerals in your water (which most likely won't do anything anyway).

Well actually I didn't notice anything wrong going on so maybe it was only on surface.
Thanks anyways.
 
Low sodium V8 advertises as 70% less sodium than regular V8, with a note saying 330 mgs vs 80 mgs. How'd they get 70% from that? Seems more like 75% less, which is even better.

I just started working out at the gym maybe 2 day ago and at first while working out i feel a little exhaustion but after awhile i feel fantastic, why is this? is my body releasing certain chemicals?

That sort of happens from time to time when auto-play is faster than the download. But more often than not, the red bar below the video just stops and never starts up again, unless I press F5 of course. Haven't done much extensive testing in Explorer but it seems to be happening there as well.
 
I've got a sort of stupid questions, but it really didn't deserve its own thread.

Can I claim German citizenship? My grandmother was German and she emigrated over here (the UK) with my grandfather in the early 50's. My father is half-German and thus I'm a quarter-German (I was also born there as my father served there in the military).

Claiming citizenship is diffrent in every country. You can't be a german citizen based on the fact that your father and the double citizenship. Google the ways to obtain german citizenship, but I guess it's something like: living 5+ years in Germany, getting married with a german citizen or something like this.

When they were localizing Macross for the US release as Robotech, how did they get away with leaving the cousin romance thing in there?
 
The problem is that I can't find the hip hop version from the ending of the movie. I keep finding different remixed version. What sucks is that I just moved and I have to wait until I get those multi-outlet things because I can't find an outlet near my pc to connect my speakers. :lol

EDIT-Okay I found it.
 
Is there any ipod/iphone app that allows remote control of the computer? Or that emulates a mouse?

Also, what apps/games do you guys recommend?

Logitech has a trackpad emulator that let you control your mouse. I think there is even a keyboard.
 
I want to watch Paranormal Activity on Netflix Instant, but noticed that on the page on Netflix's site, the DVD and Blu-Ray list the film's length at 99 minutes but the streaming version at 85 minutes. Which is the better version to watch (and why isn't the "full" version on Instant)?

The "find more posts by" button gives everyone that error since searching is disabled. But you should be able to see profiles.

I believe no one is able to search. Probably to reduce Server load.
 
This is about the name of a game I played on a PlayStation at a friends house when I was a little kid.

The game involved shooting bubbles from a gun at your enemies. That is all I remember about the game.

Does anyone know what that game is called?

Thanks if you can help. :D

I've had a few cases where the runtime listed wasn't right. Like it'll say 85:00, but then you fire the movie up and it's actually 99:00.

But to answer your question, neither.
Just imagine some people arguing, then skip to the last 20:00 or so.

I have a moderately low-end stereo sound system (two speakers, sub) that I'd like to be able to use with my TV and my PC. It's simply a convenience issue--it's annoying to have to swap the cord between the two. What's the cheapest way to split the signal without getting a receiver? Or can anyone recommend a REALLY cheap one?

For anything cable related go to monoprice.com

Do you just need a 3.5mm mini-stereo jack splitter? A female->2 male splitter and another 3.5mm male->male cable is probably all you need. What's the output on your TV? If RCA then just get that splitter and a RCA->mini Y-adapter.

I already have a regular splitter, but I'm wondering what I'd do with that second one you posted. I'm just using a standard port.

And thanks, by the way.

Second one was just if your TV used RCA for audio output. Does it use 3.5mm like a PC?

Is it possible to connect your modem to your PS3 without an ethernet cable? I accidently threw away my ethernet cable as I was moving into my new place. :lol
Click to expand...

Only if your modem is the wireless variety (which depends on your ISP). You could also use a router (which would be the preffered way IMO), but you still need an ethernet cable to hook up the router and modem.

But seriously, just get a cable, they're super cheap (and you should have many laying around anyway, jesus what kind of nerd are you).

Does anyone know a song whose lyrics involve something like "and then she shot me in the shoulder"? Googling it only gave me this, which it is definitely not. I heard it today in HMV and would like to get hold of it.
 
GAF, my Internet has been really slow when working for the past 3 evenning, but has been normal all afternoon... What can I do about it ? Where can it come from ?

Even my iPhone went back to 3G connection because wifi is unusable. Internet simply don't work. Sometimes it does, but it can only load parts (bits) of pages: the NeoGAF banner here for exemple.

I changed my DNS ip to open ones. It a bit better, but still, far far from what I'm used. I guess it's some problem with my internet provider doing some shit right when everybody is using internet ?

Have you tried rebooting your router, by chance?
 
Speaking of internet, I moved into a different apartment unit. My internet is 10x faster now.

I wonder why? I have shitty RR lite from Brighthouse, and the cable guy gave us a new router.

Your new apartment complex probably has less cable users than your last.
 
Does Nintendo ever explain what "Other regions" are included in determining hardware sales for their Consolidated Financial Statements?

Okay, probably not a stupid question. :lol
 
Here's a stupid question on reversing the effects of unhealthy living. I am 29 and have been obese most of my life. I have been drinking and smoking heavily from ages 23-28. If I start taking my health more seriously, could I regain my natural mortality rate over time? or is my heart destined to crap out and die before 60 no matter what I do at this point?
