JavaScript is a scripting language used for interacting with computers through the internet. It's loosely typed, and I believe object oriented. There are many extensions (library) available for it such as jQuery which is quite a popular one. So basically JavaScript is just another programming...

I think that one of the problems with that is really old computers. For example, if your computer was made in 2005, is it really ready to handle Windows 8? But I do remember reading about how heavily Microsoft optimized it's NT kernel, so there's probably a chance.

Well it seems like you're in a bit of a mess. In any case, you should wait for it to completely dry before trying to do anything with it. Since flash drives use NAND switches to store data, it shouldn't be wiped after a wash. Just wait for it to dry completely, and try to see if it still works.

With the recent rise in popularity of the Linux operating system and the new Steam console running a Linux OS, I was wondering if anyone here runs it? I'm currently running Ubuntu 13.10, but I was thinking about switching to Xubuntu for 14.04LTS. It works pretty well for me, and I'm able to...

To send a new email you have to follow a few steps: First go to gmail.com Secondly hit the "compose" button on the left of the screen Thirdly type what you want in each respective box Hit send and you're done

What do you mean by initial installation? Do you mean the computers that had it installed when it first came out? Do you know what this update is, and why it prevents other updates? Microsoft seems to like to date their programs fast as of late...

I'm not surprised, SSL is still SSL no matter what product it is. Since Oracle keeps their products up to date, it makes sense that they would be exposed to Heartbleed. What's good is that they're releasing patches quickly and efficiently.

I think its good that Google ignores your keywords when you stuff them. I've seen people use a lot of tags and it does get annoying after a while.

I blog. My favourite website is Tumblr, never cease to find something funny there. What most people find odd about the community is their sense of humor, and if you don't keep up you'll miss a lot of the jokes. Once you know what's going on though, it gets pretty good. Especially on pizza's blog...

I think the first thing I listened to to day was... oh yeah I remember, it was by an artist called "Droptek" and the song name was "The Covenant". I didn't like it too much, but it's not a bad song. The second song I listened to today was better, it's called "Itvara" by an artist called...

I don't understand what you mean by "what kind of MP3". I'm going to guess you mean "What kind of MP3 player do you have". At the moment I don't have any mobile devices, and I'm working on saving for a good one so I can store all my music and actually use it without having my laptop around. In...

Well I've been through at least 5 pairs in the past 6 months or so. When it comes to earphones, you'll want to get a pair that costs at least $5 for good quality. You can find pairs for $1 on eBay, but honestly it's a hit or miss. I got one pair that was high quality which I really liked, but...

I have a bunch of books near me, so I just chose the one I'm reading: "In order to understand criminal law in Canada, it is increasingly necessary to understand constitutional law."

One of the best ways would be through library books, or YouTube videos. Learning something like a programming language doesn't require a college or even money for that matter. I was able to learn a high school/college years course worth of Java by watching a video series by the YouTuber...

As mentioned before, the easiest way is just to download the executable from the Oracle website, which has already been mentioned. As side note, it will update itself, so it's a one time download, install, and it will practically do the rest itself, with the possible exception of UAC popups...
