This thread is for quick questions. A "quick question" is a question which has a relatively quick, generally factual answer; a question which is not likely to inspire an extended discussion.
e.g.
Quick Question: How tall is an average ten-year-old boy?
Not a Quick Question: Why are Americans obsessed with guns?
Quick Question: Why is ALS sometimes called Lou Gehrig's Disease? Who was Lou Gehrig?
Not a Quick Question: In Alan Dean Foster's Thranx Commonwealth series, is Pip a Mary Sue?
Get the idea?

Another quick question: I don't expect anyone to answer me (in case none of you know and/or care), but should I download Desura?
It sounds really nice to have, but the only games I have that can be modded already have ways of launching the mods with their own frontends, so it would probably be a waste of space.
Don't look at the mods, then. Look at the library.
What's the best use for a computer with a relatively slow processor by modern standards (1.3 G Hz) but a lot of RAM (3 GB)?
Can someone point me to a wacky, probably widgetty, picture from Lucky Star?

1: Emulation, perhaps? You have Gaming Rig-levels of RAM, but that processor will probably choke on more modern games.
2: Can't really do that, so I recommend looking it up yourself.

- It chokes on Grid Wars, for goodness's sakes. On the other hand, I don't get slowdown despite using Firefox for days on end.
- Never mind that; I've already found another more fitting picture.

What's that manga that starts with the blind samurai and the one armed samurai about to fight, then goes into a flashback?

Yes. I've done it before when I screwed up thread titles and stuff like that.

Depends on how you use it.
@Wicked: Pfffftftttt.
Hey, guys.
There was this one horror or thriller showed I stumbled upon a long time ago, maybe two or three years ago. I searched stuff called "Bad Kid Good Kid" because I thought that is what it was called. But no luck, gave up. All I remember is that there were two boys, and one of them was older, probably a year, than the other one. There was also a torture scene, I don't believe the younger kid died, but, well, torture.
Is this ringing any bells at all?
Also why do some pictures on the booru's have sample before them and others dont?

Speaking of boorus, why on moe.imouto.org have those differently colored boxes and stars below pictures, that highlight differently depending on what you mouse over?
^It seems to relate to image resolution.

Anybody use the latest ipod Nano or Shuffle?
I noticed that I can't seem to make any threads
I'm assuming Slowpoke being in the username sets off a flag, right?
EDIT: Odd... It kept pushing the time forward, but now I can make a thread O.o;

EDIT: Also, since the Lesbians thread is gone: Who archives these infamous threads anyways?
