Rocco's CHick TV Chit Chat

[rocco79]

These guys good go to the OC chat room or something.

A few may be bald, but they are not chicks like the rest of you that watch the OC...... LOL

Whatever... :mad:

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

HAHAHAHA poor rocco, thats what u get when u watch chick shows man

[rocco79]

Im ok with it......

[Michowski]

ya i have to say laguna beach is equally if not better for hot chicks. Ive also done 7th heaven a few times also but it never really sparked that much interest. OC definatly does tho. That seth is one pimp to have 2 chicks on him all the time

[Michowski]

rocco did you get yahoo messenger yet?

[cemeb4dk]

YOu guys need to start youe own chick show thread. This is getting way off topic...

This was suppose to discuss about the tragic plane crash, not what chick flick am I going to watch while I paint my toe nails....

Well this is our thread now! Dude your just jealous that you cant get in touch with your softer side and get down witha show like the o.c.

So go ahead and hate on ryan and me .... We dont care.



Ryan-
Im kinda a computer slut.... I dont have my own i use computers at work, my apt. clubhouse, The Fire dept. and my p's house ( soon to be my house once again for a short time) so i really cant install any programs... My girlfriend just got a brand new mac lap top to replace her 8 month old dell laptop :crazy: so hopefully she lets me "use" her old one

And i totaly argee seths goofy ass is the man summer and taylor are sooooooo hot!!!


George .... Blow Me!!! :moon: :wavey: lap: :liplick: ............................................. a ballon animal

[Mr. Tune]

All the mom's are hot too. MILF's in action!

[rocco79]

+++++++++++++++++++++1 tune!

Macs are the bomb, I have been using them personally and professionally for a decade. I mark her off as one more convert added to the small but fanatical sect known as MAC ADDICTS.

Pop i know nothing about computers except i like them... Is it true macs dont get viruses??? If so why??? What about them makes you like them more than a pc???? Any info would be greatley appericated!

[PoPRC]

No macs are not suscepitable to a virus in 99% of the cases in which a virus is released to the general public or corporate sect with the intent to wreak havoc. The reason for this is the coding used to produce viruses. First virus differ from bugs, but one can effect the other. A bug is a glitch in programming generally because of poor coding practices or a rush to put a product into the market place, in which something was overlooked and not fully tested. Viruses on the other hand are purpose built. Hand coded trojan horses that are intended to attack a certain function of a computers operating system, more specifically its code. A bug can be exploited by a virus. Windows has lots of bugs. What makes PCs different is the way they are programmed and the code that is used to program them. PC's in the past and still somewhat today are coded using the dos programming language or in the past BASIC or procedural languages, but are beginning to use the more popular Object orientated programming languages such as C and C++. Macs in the past used pascal as a programming language which is a structured procedural language that uses inferences to make statements for functions such as (if, for, while, etc). Almost nobody bothered with compiling virus scripts because one: it is a difficult language and two Macs enjoy a small market footprint, why bother. Nowadays Macs use unix as an underlying code, known as a kernal. What UNIX does that PC languages do not is block users from utilizing those internal lines of coded to effect the Operating System. In 2005 Symantec corp (they write virus protection software) found 11,000 PC viruses known to exist, they found 0 for the Macintosh. Now as stated before the mac still enjoys a smaller market footprint than PCs. But take note, UNIX is one of the oldest operating enviroments still in use today, it was originally developed in the early sixties and is open source to an extent except for its underlying code parameters which may not be altered, Linux is a form of UNIX, but is not a copy of UNIX. UNIX is also the operating system that has protected our Nuclear missile program from the get go. This UNIX is in all MAC operating systems and is known as the BSD kernal. It is hard to code a virus for an operating system that blocks users from changing its internal code. Windows does not do this, it instead relies on third party software to protect it's operating system. Mac Security like all UNIX variants are secured with government spec encryption. Which is why it is illegal to sell, send to or transport a Macintosh G5 out of the country to any third and some second world countries. They are so powerful that fission models can be run to simulate nuclear weapons building, and you cant shut them down with viruses, especially if they dont connect to an outside network.

Enough of that, I'm starting to make my own head hurt remembering that stuff, and I am not a programming expert et all. I like macs because they are with out doubt the most capable systems , and have been, for graphics work. They are exceptionally easy to implement and use, and come standard nowadays with 64bit architecture. This makes for robust wicked fast systems that can handle anything graphically I throw at them.

Sorry for the long winded explanation.

[rocco79]

Wow!!!!!! thanks for the info!!


So what your saying is basically macs dont get viruses because they share a small part of the market and the language they "speak" is too difficult to write....?

Seems like sooner or later some jerk is gonna take the time to rain on the mac parade...

They have written them, in most cases macs block them in security. They language is inherently designed to forbid access to underlying operating procedures which means you have to know how to get in the system to plant the virus. PCs dont do this, send it and forget it and let it do it's thing. This is why UNIX is used in all secure goverment operations. Not difficult to write , so much as difficult to implement.

[PoPRC]

I have had only one virus in ten years of using the Mac OS, both legacy MacOS and Mac OSX. The virus I got was an explotation of a bug for Microsofts Word for mac program. That was with a legacy(old mac operating system), before Mac OSX was implemented. Note that it was a MIcrosoft program that caused the problem. I simply backed up data and reinstalled the OS and was up and running again in 20 minutes.

[rocco79]

Wow... Thats amazing.... wish PC's did that

[bigjs]

I've never had a virus on my pc. It's all about how you protect it.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

ive only had one or two really minor ones

[squirrel]

wwwwwwwoooooooooooowwwwwwww!!! I only know one other person that could have said that. . . wait no i don't. in your very informative post you said that Linux is a form of UNIX, but is not a copy of UNIX. does this mean that it would be better to run linux on my laptop! i have a dell latitude(OLD) and i have 2 operating sys on 2 different hard drives(never hooked up at the same time of course) on is win 98 s.e.(only thing it can handle) and the other is linux, which on would work better? i've never put the linux in so i have no clue how it works compared to windows?

[FreeRideFrosty]

I love Linux. I am thinking about running it on my PC. I am pretty sure ther ehas not been a virus made on it yet... (or at least very few) Great OS. Pus mozilla is awesome...

[Michowski]

i love my professional edition. Problem free without nothing but raw performance.

[-nick]

to keep with the consistant off-topic posts..
two best tv shows ever:
Lost
The Wonder Years

[PoPRC]

Run linux, far more stable, however since the underlying code for linux is open source it is more likely to have virus coded for it, than say UNIX. The reason for this was it's inherent security and open source platform made it, for awhile the ideal server OS option. Linux is derived from UNIX.

FWIW, in the lounge we really don't care if stuff gets off topic. BUT when you want to change the subject we prefer that you start a new thread. That way the header of the thread will let people know what it's about.

This particular thread should really be three different threads

[SixVi6-Camaro]

hmmm... Mabey we should just rename this thread the general Chit Chat thread.. lol!
