Hello, Since you guys were so helpful the other week when I had trouble with smoked salmon I now ask for your help with this new dilemma. I have these pair of shoes which I really like, however, I have recently come to suspect that they may harbour views and ideals which I cannot...

Someone gave me a smoked salmon-side, now I'm hungry and want to eat it for breakfast. The problem is its been in my fridge for six days and I only just now re-discovered it (I thought I had eaten it already). Is it still edible? The only resources I find are issued by government and can't be...

Just curious. Do companies use the fact that something is manufactured in your country as a selling point i.e. [your country] quality/engineering and so on. Please state which country you're from. edit: I cannot change thread title, this saddens me.

Swedish state television control bureau which surveys and makes sure that the people of Sweden pay their TV-license (you need to pay to own a TV here, every month) have a complete brain-melt and make a short film celebrating National Socialisms role for free media. Have a look, its completely...

I may find myself in Glasgow for a couple of days in the near future. Any tips on what to see/do while there? I do not particularly want to go there but its an invite I can't turn down without risk hurting peoples feelings and having them whine on me. Someone said rent a car and go to...

'lo I'm thinking of fleeing the country for a while due to being bored out of my mind. How's Portugal this time of year? Expensive? I'm thinking a relatively cheap hotel but with Internet and without people sticking needles in their arms. In Lissabon.

'lo I need a good pair of wireless headphones. Ideally it has both a built in microphone and quality sound. Got a pair you can recommend? :)

That is, the original population removed and colonized by white Europeans? Northern Africa was traditionally viewed as having some degree of civilization but why was sub-saharan Africa not treated the same was as America and Australia? Was its population too high, too unhospitable terrain? Some...

Is there a way to connect extra monitors to a laptop that doesn't have any obvious ports for this?

'lo There is a blank in my knowledge and understanding of Germany between Nazi times and fully Western/Soviet-intergrated so I'm asking if you knowledgeable people here at cfc can help me out. Can be documentary or slightly fictionich doesn't matter. I'm basically looking for normal...

Hi, I'm in need of a new laptop. I know there are alot of knowledgeable people here so I thought I'd ask what you think of this system. Should add that this is to be mainly a work laptop so it will be used for 3d-modeling, rendering, movie editing and such, heavy digital art...

If indeed only believing in Jesus as the son of God and saviour of mankind gets you into heaven and all others go to hell, how do you cope with dealing with athiests and people of other religions in daily life? Chances are many of your neighbors, colleagues at work, and even friends are not...

Once again I am reminded that I don't know as much about computer as I think I do =P. The one year of free norton antivir/firewall ran out and I uninstalled it and installed some freeware instead (AVG/ZoneAlarm). Now I cannot log into msn messanger, nor can I access secure internet sites with...

That's a pretty high number, 2.5% of the total population. Not sure what to make of this. Link (BBC): http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6040054.stm And quoted:

'lo I recently brought my old MacIntosh LC-630 out from the basement and found loads of nice stuff on it. However the Mac is really old and will probably fall apart any second and so I want to bring all that stuff over to my PC. Problem is I'm not sure how to do that. It doesn't have a...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4832238.stm Sounds very odd to me. The poll was taken just after the big riots last year, but still, I'm very surprised. Not so much that people are racist, but why would they publicly say so in a poll?

'lo A while ago I got this maxtor 300GB external harddrive which i connect to my computer by ethernet cable through a router. Thing is when I first installed it everything worked fine, I could access it, write on it and everything. Suddenly after having turned the power of while I was...

Any chance of implementing height differences in CivIV, the way it worked in SMAC? Civ IV looks really flat as it is now.

US re-uses old Soviet bases in Eastern Europe for "interrogation" of al-Qaida suspects. We should throw them out immediately, we cant have foreign powers torturing people in secret bases in Europe. This is just crazy. SOURCE: http://euobserver.com/9/20239
