A Mixture of Emotions….

Wat I plan is so different than wat I do…and that is much much
different than wat I shud do … but wait wats Wat I SHUD DO??
I dont know wat I shud be doing but there is hell lot for me to do…
I dont want to rewrite it, I really really need a break from IIIT….
This post had been staying in my account for like 3 days now and I want
it to finish asap. So I m frustoo becos of so many reasons that now I m at
the saturation limit and thus kinda in a RELAX MODE. Finally Shiben is back
so I guess my problems will be shared by someone.

Today again I felt that I m bad at making friends, I dont know, wats wrong
but then I think I will stop thinking abt it, becos some ppl never change
(either its me or its him (or them ppl I failed to connect with over years))
blah this is enuf to remember this day as smthing like this …. so ….

YESSSSSSS, I got some kewl work done (no dont even think of studies as we have
taken a break from them….) at Basketball court….Highest Scorer and I guess
gud defence and we were there at 3rd place …. thats where we belong with a
team like ours but that is absolutely fine …. thnks to patel, prashant^2[1],
and Joon. contd……

Todays Tweak ::

Windows uses 20% of your bandwidth! Get it backA nice little tweak for XP. Microsoft reserve 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes (suspect for updates and interrogating your machine etc..)Here’s how to get it back:Click Start–>Run–>type “gpedit.msc” without the “This opens the group policy editor. Then go to:Local Computer Policy–>Computer Configuration–>Administrative Templates–>Network–>QOS Packet Scheduler–>Limit Reservable BandwidthDouble click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the ‘Explain’ tab :”By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default.” and enable and set ban dwidth to 0

Windows Beat Unix, But It Won’t Beat Linux :: Must Read Beautifully Written by Steven J.

While the Unix companies were busy ripping each other to shreds, Microsoft was smiling all the way to the bank.
Because Torvalds is the single leader of Linux, it has avoided the old Unix trap of in-fighting, which continues to bedevil the BSDs. If all Linux had was Torvalds, I’d worry about the operating system’s future. Linus is a wonderful person and a great programmer, but if that’s all there was to Linux’s success, we’d be one bad car accident away from its end.

Red Indian NamesA little Red Indian boy asked his father, the big chief and witch doctor of the tribe, “Papa, why is it that we always have long names, while the white men have shorter names – Bill, Tex or Sam, for example?” His father replied, “Look, son, our names represent a symbol, a sign,or a poem for our culture –not like the white men, who repeat their names from generation to generation. Also, it is part of our makeup that in spite of everything, we survive. For example, your sister’s name is Small Romantic Moon Over The Lake, because on the night she was born, there was a beautiful moon reflected in the lake. Then there’s your brother, Big White Horse of the Prairies, because he was born on a day that the big white horse who gallops over the prairies of the world appeared near our camp and is a symbol of our capacity to live and the life force of our people. It’s very simple and easy to understand. Do you have any other questions, Little Broken Condom Made in China?”
