Hi, I am looking at buying a dell laptop. The main motive for buying is university. I just want a generally quick laptop. Furthermore, I also want to be able to play games such as EU3 and other new Paradox titles quickly and easily. When going through the various options for the various...

When having converdations using the instant messaging service MSN, at the moment some messages that people are sending me are not getting through. What on earth is the problem? As you can probably imagine, its very frustrating! :mad:

From The Daily Telegraph: I thought it was interesting. What do you people think of it? Do you think the twin rate is attributed to Mengele's work?

Hello. I have tried for many hours to find online resources of historical populations of various places. I'm calling today to ask if anybody knows any good online free resources that have records of the historical populations of individual places in Europe, Middle East, Africa, the Americas...

In another thread on this forum, I posted the following post: Upon further thought I was thinking that the post could star in its own thread. This thought was further anchored with the following post: So basically I ask you these questions: What is your opinion of the average American (with...

I was just wondering what you would do if you were dropped in the country in the title. Any good ideas?

What if Belarus decided to go the way of nazi germany in ww2 and embark on a quest of world domination and subjugation? Would the rest of the world have the balls to stop Belarus? Can a mod change "Belaurs" in the title to "Belarus"? Thanks :)

Evening. Today I was at the beach, and I proceeded to use a rubber ring thing to float on out at sea. The waves were quite alright, with minor movements, but never capsizing me or anything, so that was good. So I get home tonight, and start to waste time on here, and I realise that I can feel...

Say if you're heterosexual, is it true that you can be attracted to a person of the other sex that has the same sort of physical features as you, perhaps a combination of same eye colour, jaw size, or nose shape etc.? Basically, can you be attracted to yourself heterosexually; can you be...

Rant about the things that grind you here! Personally, I hate British weather.

I was wondering when all of you believe a child becomes an adult. This does not refer to the simple "When you reach 18, you are an adult by law" or anything, I'm asking what event in a child's life marks his entrance into adulthood, according to your opinionizmz. As they say: Discuss

On certain video files, my computer will not play them. It comes up with a message box saying "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. For additional assistance, click Web Help". Of course, the web help is useless, and it's weird because these files used to work, but...

Yes, it's that time of year to apply for college and sixth form in England, and so the conundrum of that "Ethnic background" section ensues... However, the section of my school's admission forms is weird- as you may know, my father is Italian, making me half Italian. Therefore, this would be a...

I am curently trying to listen to BBC Radio 1 online. However, it is not working. I click 'Play' and it doesn't. I have tried this both on Firefox and Explorer, and they both don't work. I've also tried receiving it with WMP and Real Player, and none of them work either. Any suggestions?

I was just looking through various languages, having seen the 'Cyrillic-"j"-thread', and realised just how many different alphabets there are. I was wondering what other people thought of the various scripts, what one's the ugliest, and which one's the most beautiful. In my opinion, Armenian is...

Evening all. On both Firefox and Explorer, when I want to watch videos on BBC, they do not work. Fair enough. They say that I need a plug in, which is currently missing. It says I need WMP 11, which I already have, but I reinstall it anyway. It still doesn't work, and it still says I need WMP...

The long title of the thread is a clumsy way of asking this: Why is a person's birthplace given such significance? For instance, my father, with both parents being fully Italian, was born in England, and so, because of this, he has a British passport. His brother, my uncle, speaks hardly any...

At the minute I am watching da Vinci Code, and only some of the subtitles, if any, appear on screen. In other films, subtitles do not appear at all, with the subtitles option turned on. What can I do to solve this?
