I mean really? We all know that best answers get 10 points... Does this actually lure more people in because we can get 10 points? It's no different then any other question.

Venting here, I just think it's a tad stupid.

Where does the money come from?

Okay techies, try this one out:

Running 4 pcs on a network connected to a router (and then cable modem for internet)

I wiped and did a clean install on one of the computers (worked fine before, just have a new person starting so we wipe) XP Pro installed just fine and is up and running.

Trouble is, there is no network connectivity. Driver is good, just gives me the 169.x.x.x crap IP. Tested the line with a laptop, and the network line works just fine.

I've uninstalled/reinstalled the network card, reset all modems, routers, pc's etc, even redid the clean install. The status light on the router doesn't even light up when I plug this pc in now...

So:

Is the card dead? How could I test it?

Why won't the stupid thing get a proper ip though dhcp? (router configured for ips 192.168.1.100 through 149)

I'm pulling my hair out here. Any ideas??

I mean, really? If eating fat makes you fat, fine.

All of our food (well most) has been modified and all the nutritionists recommend low fat foods as healthy choices. If eating fat makes you fat, why are people still obese with all the low fat food available?

Why is it that women keep asking questions about their pregnancy/is it normal/should this be happening on Yahoo questions?

Do they not realized that probably less than 1/1000 people answering questions are not doctors or even have anything remotely related to medical education/training?

PLEASE GET TO A DOCTOR!!! THAT'S PROBABLY THE BEST PLACE TO LOOK FOR INFORMATION, NOT KIDS ANSWERING QUESTIONS ON YAHOO.

(I apologize for the rant there, but please do offer your thoughts)

What ever happened? There was the threat of the HUGE pandemic; Now where are we at?

Did the US Government really need to buy millions of doses of supposed vaccine for this 'Global Pandemic' or was it all a scam?

I cannot believe what I read here.

Why is everyone so concerned with finding the 'lesser of evils?'

Why not take a step back and realize it's all a game, to keep people busy so they don't see the real problems that face all of us (ALL OF US, regardless of which political puppet party we like)

If income tax is needed so much for the operation of our country (Canada), how did the country operate from 1867 (Confederation) to 1917 (War Income Tax Act)?

50 year with no income tax... how did the country manage?

What precisely happened to the English language? Where once grammatical form and proper construction stood, now a slang 'use written language any way you prefer' seems to dominate most written communication.

Is it just me, or are there other fine people that are frustrated by the lack of proper written language/overuse of slang?

Two train stations 300 km apart.

Train 1 leaves station A and travels at a constant speed of 50 km/h towards station B.

Train 2 leaves station B and travels at a constant speed of 75 km/h towards station A.

A small fly takes flight from the front of train 1 and flies toward train 2 - always moving 5km/h faster than the train. When it reaches train 2, it turns around and flies back towards train 1, again moveing 5km/h faster than the train.

Where will the fly be when the 2 trains meet?

Quick responses appreciated - I don't want to soil my underpants.

What are the pros/cons of having a newborn/young child immunized etc? I would like to hear from both sides, for and against.

Informed answers only please - if you're only answer is 'OMG do it you idiot" then please move on to a different question.

By September 11 I mean Sept 11 1973 when the enemies of freedom bombed and killed the leader of the Chilean government and murdered thousands of innocents.

Why no press or information or worldwide hunt for those responsible?

If you own yourself, why is it illegal to put certain substances in your body?

Is a natural person, as defined by Black's Canadian Legal Dictionary, working under private contract subject to the income tax act?

When you go to the bank for a loan, where does the money come from? Under the Bank Act, banks are prohibited from loaning out other persons deposits and also prohibited from loaning their own money.

Where does it come from then?

Why is it that when anyone attacks the US or Britain they're terrorists; When the US or Britain attacks anyone else, it's Freedom?
