Geeky but fun question - how long has it been since you’ve restarted your computer? (If you’re a Mac user, the best way to find out is to open up the “Terminal” program inside your Applications > Utilities folder and type “uptime” without the quotes, then press return. Shazam.)

  9. There’s an uptime app included in Win2K tools and exists by default in 2K3. Works in XP.

  11. 2 hours. As a matter of fact I don’t see much point in leaving it on when I’m not using it.

  • Also, Mr. Solomon, being as you are a liberal, idiotic fuck of a man, I don't think that you've come across the realization that not all languages share the same grammatical rules as English. In Russian, for instance, the order of words in a sentence has no importance. Ya lublyu tebya, and ya tebya lublyu say the exact same thing. In Spanish, some words are placed backwards. Juice of orange, for instance. In Italian, an italian man has sex with your wife. Also, you are a gigantic faggot.
