Does give you that feeling of power of telling someone else they're wrong . Until they go and edit it that is, then all the new people are like, no he spelled it right.

But yeah I rely on spell check for a lot of my spelling, though I'm normally close enough. Well there are those times ...

*wishes everything was spelled phonetically*

Also, where do you find all these things to quote.

sarcam is a form of humor... o.O
thing is you were barely being sarcastic... it was like half sarcasm and half not which kind of cancel each other out... it wasn't really much of sarcasm at all.. but it was a good try, you know.

where do i get this stuff? Well, all over the place. If you want a decent online encyclopedia of philosophy, theres always Stanford. though i don't think anyone's bothered to edit it for like... the last 5 years

http://plato.stanford.edu/

if anyone cares, i could give them a double handful of links to interesting stuff.

doubt anyone is, though XD

OOO i care i care *jumps around trying to be tall enough to be seen* GIVE ME LINKS!!!

Well I can't say I don't care, though it will take me a while to read all of them, as I loathe reading on the computer. But yeah give us some links, I'll look at them at some point. Some probably later today.

Just because we default to programming a lot doesn't mean it's all we care about. And though philosophy usually doesn't land you a job directly, except teacher, it's still important since it's the basis of science and a lot of modern though.

And I guess I fail at sarcasm, o well, probably why I'm literal more often than not.

"mizaru, kikazru, iwazaru"

Actually, got curious about the definition of sarcasm, and irony, and sardonic, as I get them mixed up from time to time, since they're so similar. Turns out sarcasm is not meant to be funny, except in a sadistic humor kind of way.



I guess one can qualify it with light sarcasm, but then that would mean it's only lightly demeaning . Just interesting to look at what words are supposed to mean, and compare that to thier popular definition.

Hurray for over analysis.

Being ironic can however be funny



Your words of the day, enjoy.

Actually, I didn't know that either...

But I bet you guys aren't suprised since most see me coming off as a dumbass anyway...

uh huh that pretty much says it

Now for something completely different.

I think Strict is really tight-assed.

Basically, the only way to make everything standard is by using stylesheets.

That's true for the most part... but that's really the way XHTML works really. It's alot cleaner than HTML... but that's just stating the obvious.

Using a spreadsheet or template is a good way to leanr XTML though. It's how I picked up on it.

Well that is true, but that is what they want everyone to start doing, and I kind of agree that it's a good idea. Makes it a little harder to have forums (though really everything should be done through BBCode anyway <- my opinion), but it also reduces page load times and makes your code have more structure to it, and also brings out the layout and makes it more logical. To me it's much easier to write a style sheet and then give something a class than remembering all the different attributes for a tag and writing those out each time.

Just a mini explination as to why it's not allowed, and why that may not be such a bad thing in the end. Of course it will be a while before XHTML 1.1 becomes the standard everyone uses (read never, since web people don't like to agree on a standard, and there will always be die hard MS supporters like there are die hard Linux/Opensource fans). But really I think it makes more logical sense to either style by id/class/tag type in a style sheet, than to have to edit each individual tags attributes. Of course like I've said in the past, the main problem with HTML is that in the past browsers fixed bad HTML, so then that gave everyone the assumption that their old code was fine when it wasn't. You never see things like that in a programming language like Java or C, they definitly let you know when your code is wrong, and refuse to run it like they should.

So after that rant, I like to be standards compliant (with the highest standard possible for my current project), and in this case I think the standard is justified, though I also realize it takes time to convert existing code to the standard, and is not always top priority over functionality. Also doesn't help that broswers don't comply so the standards *cough*IE*cough* so it doesn't make people see a need to.

Conclusion, web coding is broken in general.

yeah, well... *moves thread along to random topic*

CRANDOMATAN

also, let us all at this juncture pray for Lantis, who is trapped (however improbable this may sound) in El Dorado.

maybe he is destined to go on a great journey to find some treasure that will pay for a new car so he can get home.. *snicker* ...

for real though, i hope you arn't held up for too long lantis ~~~~~~~~ <--- some finding your way home waves. ^_^

Bacon?

No it's new Beggin Strips!

Thanks...

I just realized how trapped it feels to not have your own mode of transportation.

And what sucks worse than anthing?



My significant other is sitting at home doing nothing. She just sits their. Oh and now I have dual monitors which makes it all the worse.

But yeah... I feel computer sick... which is like being home sick... only with the affinity for electronic appliances.... computers, to be specific.

Actually, I'm more worried about my finances more than anything else. This may very well put me into quite a bit of debt.

significant other?

I thought you didn't believe in relationships...

My computer, you nit.

And my computer is more faithful than any woman would be.

I just realized how much Lantis is like me... (I can't live with out my computer either.)
