I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

hee Sorry. I spaced on one URL in particular two years in a row. I'd suddenly get all these emails, WHERE DID YOUR SITE GO?

Oops.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

More annoying, this domain isn't even being used, at least not for web stuff. So I have every (unwarranted) conviction that I deserve it more.

Christ, my primary domain expires in less than a month. Let me go get that taken care of.

I don't need any more domains, since I have 5, and only two have honest-to-goodness uses. As Lucy Liu's character said in that crap movie with Banderas: "Some women buy shoes."

Oh, and what does "Status: CLIENT TRANSFER PROHIBITED " mean?

I went on a domain downsizing program a few years ago. I was outta control. And I think that means, they signed up for the thing that secures your domain name so people can't hijack it. Or something.

I finally let bigwhitepanties.com disappear into the ether. That hurt much more than it should have. Someone registered it, but there's no there there.

All is well that ends in pizza.

What an idiot.

According to this article [link] Apple allowing dual boots will mean an exodis from Macs to Windows.

Yeah, we are all poor lost souls, who need to see the light and we have only been afraid to make that switch.

Unbelievable.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ok, I am on a G4ibook and I need to do something about opening TCP and UDP connections. I have Sharing opened in System Preferences, but I do not know where to find a port # which I am being asked to test to make sure said TCP and UDPs are open. Help?

What version of OSX is it? You should be able to gget somewhere clicking on "Firewall"

I'd check it, but I have something wrong with mine on 10.3.x...

Hmmm, does this help? [link]

Sometimes the Help menu or online support area of whatever app you're trying to use will let you know which port range the app defaults to.
