Calling all smart people.

[Neoma]

If you wanna talk on Skype, let me know. I am one bored individual.

[Midlodemocrat]

1. Sorry. All the smart folks are on FB.

[Neoma]

2. Does FB mean facebook?

[annabanana]

3. I can never manage Facebook...

I do like skype, though.. (not tonight.. the place is a mess)

[Neoma]

4. I go on facebook to keep track of my overly religious republican relatives.

Just audio is fine.

[Midlodemocrat]

5. Yep. It's where the kool kidz live.

If you believe what you read here.

[Neoma]

7. I don't hang around the lounge that often.

[Shell Beau]

6. You are smart!

:P

[Neoma]

8. Well, I'm not going to talk to myself.

[Shell Beau]

9. Join FB!! Friend me!

10. Unfortunately Facebook is running like crap today.

:P

[keroro gunsou]

12. um...

so why are you on there then midlo-san?

TM i can see... she's one of those young hipster generation kids i hear about.

i only use my VOIP for WoW when my guild does raids... or i'm feeling too lazy to type.

[Midlodemocrat]

13. Watch it. you. You're about to lose your status as my favorite DUer.

[keroro gunsou]

14. sorry

but the shot was there. i had to pull the trigger. if i didn't, i'm pretty sure someone else would have.

cheer up, i snark because i care. :evilgrin:

[Midlodemocrat]

15. LOL.

:thumbsup:

[keroro gunsou]

16. one question though

how did i get to be one of your favorites? granted i'm not as insulting as some others, per volume, but i have zinged you pretty nastily some times.

[Midlodemocrat]

17. Because you said some nice things about me.

That I 'bring the funny' or words to that effect.

[keroro gunsou]

18. ah.

well someone has to. might as well be you, just as soon as you stop with the bunco-induced boxed wine swilling... :)

i kid, we all have our hobbies/interests. you can crack on my World of Warcraft playing and my perpetual use of bittorrent to download music and tv shows.

my music collection would make you gag, from the sheer size of it... and some of the stuff i listen to :D

[Midlodemocrat]

19. I tried bit torrent, but it screwed up my computer.

So, now I use graboid.com.

Have you heard of it? The quality is amazing and some is in HD.

I also burn copies of shows to DVD with a program my computer guy put it.

graboid is free for a certain amount of downloading per month, but I was too impatient and I bought the $14.99 per month package which allows me to download 50,000 mb per month.

No spyware, nothing mucking up the computer. Seriously. If you download a lot, you should check it out.

I hear you on the music collection. I just sold about 1000 of my old albums after I got them in MP3 form.

[keroro gunsou]

20. thanks, but...

i'll stick with bittorrent. the program i use roots out spyware for the most part, plus i only get torrents from 3 sites that i know do a very good job of catching spyware and trojans.

thanks to BT, i found an old britcom that i saw only 1 episode of, but remembered it to this day, thanks to the actor, lenny henry. the show was chef! lenny henry is a freakin' comic god.

[Midlodemocrat]

21. I'm not computer savvy enough to root out the spyware.

DS1 had to help me with the trojan from Hell a while back.

I like Graboid a lot, though. You might want to give it a looksee if you're curious. I really like that some of the shows I watch are in HD.

[keroro gunsou]

23. i'm too cheap

to use graboid. the whole unemployment thing ya know.

still if spyware's an issue, that's what TM and KidMid are for.

[Midlodemocrat]

24. It's free for the first set of downloadable stuff.

[keroro gunsou]

25. i download A LOT.

i've got all 9 seasons of csi, 8 seasons of law and order ci, and about 6 seasons of law and order in my pipe at the moment. to say nothing of the episodes of Bleach, One Piece, Full Metal Alchemist, Hatsukoi, and Suzumiya Haruhi i download every week...

i really need a life.

22. What sites would those be?

i only get torrents from 3 sites that i know do a very good job of catching spyware and trojans.

Not that I'm all that worried about it as I'm running Linux.
