I have a computer question. So I installed windows 7 a few months ago and ever since the tool bar (where the back and forward button is) randomly stops working. I can't save anything to my favorites or use internet options or anything like that when it happens. I'm not sure what's wrong. All I can think of to do is defragment the hard drive and uninstall and reinstall internet explorer but I don't know how to do the second part. Help?
Hmm..
this is just a workaround method but maybe you could try using Keyboard shortcuts for now?
It's usually ctrl + D for bookmarks,
Backspace for the folder above you're currently viewing etc. (works like a "back" )

Depends on the brand? I know that the ones I've used did. You can always do a test run. 😛

Thanks Masami, you're always answering questions~ <3333
I was planning on buying the one with the gold bottle that's just called.. original "tacky glue" LOL. I'm probably going to go buy one at my local 24/7 Walmart later on tonight! We'll see how it goes! :3
thanks again. :3

Well, this here is an answer to tartufo-jo's question about doujinshi that got strruck down, even though I'm not sure if she asked it again.
The meaning of "doujinshi" has nothing to do with parodying existing manga or porn or any of that. Doujinshi is self-published comics. That's all. Most of it is distributed through doujinshi conventions (which I'm sure you know a little about thanks to their depiction in lots of otaku anime), but sometimes a published author will create a doujinshi that fans can mail-order. Fans in the western hemisphere might associate the term with fan comics, because that's most of what gets scanlated and it's also admittedly what there's the most of, but that's not the whole story.
A lot of manga artists begin by self-publishing doujinshi. The author of After School Nightmare did. Her now-published work Mister Mermaid was first a doujinshi that she later decided to have published. Kiyohiko Azuma of Azumanga Daioh and Yotsubato! fame began by self-publishing hentai doujinshi.
So it isn't all fanfiction. In fact, if through some bizarre flouting of copyright laws a fancomic did get published, it wouldn't be doujinshi.

Please tell me 😢
Maybe a variation of Widow's Peak (since it usually looks like that but without the front bangs...)?
QUESTION:
How do you install role-playing games onto a portable USB (more specifically a game like Perfect World)? Is 2 GB big enough?
Is it possible to put online flash games on it too?

If the game is less than 2gb, then I don't see why not :\

Really? Any game? 😕
I mean, I become interested in this when I was searching up stuff for a friend. But I wasn't quite sure how the installation worked. So basically you're saying I could just install the game on the USB stick, and then bringing it to another computer it would still work?

A USB will store any kind of data you want, it doesn't install, just stores (like sending yourself an e-mail), as long as you have all the components of the game (and maybe the registration number if the game wasn't free) on the USB you should be able to install the game on any computer you want.
Edit: Oops, I just read the link, I guess it should still be okay as long as it says it's okay...might be a bit laggy though...

Well, that list is kinda incomplete, but yeah, it'll lag a little.

@Scyfon, azureblueinfinite
Thanks so much for the replies, guys! 😃
(I'm gonna try and see what happens, even if it does lag. ^_^;; )

Once again, I'm at a loss to mathematics. >> Can anyone help me with this problem and explain how they did it? I've been poking at it for awhile and nothing of value has been discovered...
I take a bunch of unit cubes (1x1x1) and put them together to form one larger cube. (?x?x?)
I then take out my paint and paint 'some' (this term is suppose to be vague) of the faces/sides of the large cube. (when I paint a side, I paint the entire side)
Then the large cube is taken apart into its unit cubes and exactly 24 of the small cubes have no paint on them.
How big was the large cube?
Found the answer via google, for those who were curious:
For any nxnxn cube, where n >= 3, there is an interior cube with no exposed sides. For example, a 3x3x3 cube has a single 1x1x1 cube that is completely surrounded by the rest. A 4x4x4 cube has a 2x2x2 cube in it's interior. In general, it is pretty easy to see that the interior of an nxnxn cube is an (n-2)x(n-2)x(n-2) cube. Since this interior is unexposed, none of the 1x1x1 cubes that make it up can be painted, so they are included in the 24 you have left over in the end.
Now, the number of these interior 1x1x1 cubes has to be a perfect cube (for obvious reasons). So, our possibilities are 1 and 8. If we go any higher, we will exceed the 24 unpainted cubes we ended up with. Now, if the interior cube is 1x1x1, then the large cube is 3x3x3. Subtracting that one interior cube from 24 gives us 23 three unpainted 1x1x1 cubes which had exposed faces. However, since we were painting entire faces of the large cube (meaning we left only entire faces unpainted, no partial faces), then the number of unpainted cubes left over should be a multiple of 9 (each face of the large cube is made of of nine 1x1 faces). Since 9 doesn't divide 23 evenly, this isn't a possibility.
So what if our cube had a 2x2x2 interior cube? This would mean the large cube was 4x4x4. Now, subtracting the eight 1x1x1 cubes of our interior cube from 24 gives us 16, and it just so happens that a 4x4x4 cube has faces made up of sixteen 1x1x1 faces each. Thus, the large cube was 4x4x4 and you painted all but one of it's faces.
