Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Web browser forensics. Interesting, if you're interested in web browser forensics. Or if you're curious as to that it would take to prove or disprove you've been up to naughtiness.

Daniel ... I've been using VLC for a few months and turned him onto it. He tried that and a few other programs but the video was rooted in all of them. Weird.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Ok, I need help, because I'm tearing my fucking hair out. I've only got WordPerfect on my fairly new PC, and I HATE it. Because everytime I open my resume, it has fucked with my bullet formatting. Now, I went in and just inserted symbol to see if that would fix the problem, and it hasn't. And I could just re-format by hand everytime I print out a reume, but the thing is, I'm e-filing a lot of applications and everytime I upload my resume to a POTENTIAL EMPLOYER I don't want the formatting on the bullets to make me look like an incompetent idiot.

Does anyone know what the problem is? I am going crazy. It's not like job hunting isn't stressful enough...

Are you opening it up on different computers, Erin, because WP usually reformats for different printers.

Not the resume. It's all on my PC.

Anyone else encountering the Comcast DNS issue tonight? If you're in the same boat, you can manually point to different Comcast DNS servers (68.47.160.6 and 68.47.160.5 are ones I got from another board) and it should work. I've been having connection issues all day and thought it was my adapter and/or router.

My comcast was dead last night. I wonder if my problem was bad Comcast DNS servers too....

Is it possible to connect to b.org using an IP address, for those rare occasions when someone might lack a working DNS server?

Erin, I suggest that you download and install openoffice. [link]

It's an excellent free program that's fullly compatible with MS Office and will keep your bullet as they are.

I love Wordperfect, but only when I originate documents in it. Converting from Word into Wordperfect is a nightmare.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I've got a long mp3 file that I want to edit. I need to chop off a couple minutes from the beginning and the end. I have several high end audio editors, but I'm pretty sure they would effectively convert the mp3 to a wav file when I opened it, and then convert it back to mp3 after I edited and resaved it. I'd rather avoid reconverting it since you lose some fidelity that way.

Is it possible to edit an mp3 file without converting it back and forth? Anyone know of any editors that do that?
