im runnning win7 ultimate x64

and amd radeon hd 6450 card

whenever i run videos(vlc/wmp/mpa-cc) my videos are always laggy

there's not a really BIG lag, i can clearly see the whole movie in 2 hrs but its always there, specially whe the camera is moving a lot, you can see the lag clearly

anything i can do to reduce the lag?

im going to enter college in a few weeks,

im putting computer science at low priority because in job all i have to do will be just sit in front of a computer and make programs

it'll be too much virtual

im immensely interested in computers and i know basic c++ and i make some random programs in it

i like programming quite a lot and am interested in knowing about computers but its too geeky and the reasons i gave above

should i change my decision?

i am familiar with the method of hiding .rar in .jpg files

now is there any way i can spot such images?

like, can anyone tell if an image contains .rar file?

one method i see is to perform a search on whole computer for *.jpg and then sorting them out by size, if the .rar inside image is large enough, one can easily tell

but i was wondering is there any easy way?

Can anyone explain me this phrase?

Never let a day pass that you will have cause to say, I will do better tomorrow

anyone, im freaking my brains over it, pls explain

i gave it to a friend and now i know its full of viruses.

i dont want my pc to infect so i want to take precautions about this,

i am trying to disable autorun

although i have antivirus but i dont trust any of the antiviruses (avg)

what more precautions can i take?

so tomorrow we are gonna have a scribbling day in our school when we will write some messages on each others shirts, (its our last year of school)

so give me some ideas what should i write

also, there is this girl i USED to have a crush on(that feeling went away b4 i could ask her out), so i wanna write something good

im talking in general,eg. tap water

so i entered facebook in my address bar but then i was redirected to this site

http://facebook.com-socialnetwork.com/prize/

this looks like facebook but i dunno abt it

i googled about this site but i couldnt get anything on it

i think its fake but why was i redirected to this site from facebook.com??

is it real? has anyone else seen this?

What would happen if?

we all know that a bubble rises in water as it has less density

what if i add only one molecule? would it rise?

Additional Details

not in a bubble

we all know that a bubble rises in water as it has less density

i know it makes it electricity conductible and a good reducing agent but i want to know why this happens

what is the blue color due to?

i read somewhere that this is due to electrolysed ammoniated ions.....

am i right, if so, please tell me what are these electrolysed ammoniated

star and answer

question:

Does any substance other than water sublime?

An ice cube escaping my G&T landed on a piping hot griddle and immediately started to simultaneously melt and sublime.

And it made me wonder, are there any other substances that sublime? I have to admit that I cannot remember that piece of information that I was undoubtedly told at school!

Additional Details

dry ice is liquid nitrogen which is then turning into a gas.

Therefore it is not subliming, as this term means to turn from solid to gas without going through a liquid stage.

I was wondering if I would get this as an answer!

Thank you for the correction, I have long been mistaken.

However Dr Jay could learn a little courtesy, I'm assuming she is very young.

My lack of chemical knowledge is the basis as to why I posed the question. Luckily I'm not bothered about being wrong, nor am I easily cowed. I like to learn and one can only learn by listening to explanations.

People who use this forum to put other down (most probably as a means of feeling better about themselves) may have some specific knowledge but aren't particularly bright.

Have a nice day! :)

answers:

1)Two things - firstly, water does NOT sublime at atmospheric pressure, you are mistaken. You said it melted and sublimed simultaneously, and that is not so.

Secondly, dry ice is NOT liquid nitrogen. It's SOLID carbon dioxide, whose sublimation gives the cloudy gas effect.

Your really need to brush up on your basics.

2)napthalene balls....camphor.....Copper sulphate crystals...etc....run a google search!
