When i typed =rand(200,99) + enter i got this sentence "Servez à ce monsieur une bière et des kiwis." which is in french repeated over 200 pages hehe ,it means serve this gentleman a beer and kiwis lol

[iam_pk]

in english is different~
''The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.''
a sentence which used all 26 letters~

[Hank]

It's using a typical sentence used on US high school typing tests. Could it be a typing test cheat code?

Hank.

[iam_pk]

i dont know if its a cheat code or not~
but that will be very handy to use this in the test!

start the test...finish!!!! full marks :D

If I was a computer geek like the guy that hacked this site, I bet there are 100s of crazy things built into Windows applications that we don't know about :D.

[Kirsty]

Thats kinda interesting. I never knew that the computer had secret games and stuff like that. I don't want to spend all my time finding them though. =P

[Anjin-san]

I remember in excel there was something to start a purple 3D landscape which you're flying across. You can change direction and look for the bit of ground with the credits rolling on it but thats about it.

[Hisham]

I guess the coders at Microsoft were smoking some when they were including these suprises :D

[tanueirin]

I think there's a flight simulator game in one of the earlier 9* Word versions.

[KOMA]

hit CTRL+ALT+DELETE 5 times fast and if you have a old gameboy one of the first ones that came out hold all the buttons down and see what happens (try it with one of the new one might work) not trick but funny to see the reaction of people who have no clue wthat that does.

[don quixote]

I got this, repeated for 348 pages...

'En god stil må først og fremst være klar. Den må være passende. Aristoteles.'

It means something like 'a good style must first and foremost be clear. It must be suitable. Aristoteles.'

Probably a quote from his book about rethoric... the french one was funnier! :D

Θέλει αρετή και τόλμη η ελευθερία. (Ανδρέας Κάλβος)

which means

if you want to be free you must have virtue and be brave( andreas kalvos)



please tell if you know more tricks like this!

[Charuzu]

Those neat little things are called "Easter Eggs" They are in most software and OS'es. Most notebly in the Early MacOS Versons. Also, the guy that defaced the Kendo World Website was probally one of those 1334 H@x0r/ Script-kiddys... I rather large problem now 'n days. Real hackers don't go around defacing random sites, they are playful explores of the unknown. When thy get into a system they "look but don't tuch". In factr many times they leave a note saying how the computers holes can be fixed (HINT: Firewall print and filesharing. All that one needs to do is go into the DOS window
Type: "Nbtstat -A <Enter IP here>"
Now if their is one that has <20> your in luck!!
Type: "Net view\\<Enter IP here>"
Type: "Net use x:\\<Enter IP address here>\temp

There you go! not too hard is it? Try doing it to your frineds computer (With there permision))

Oh, yes and the final security note.... TRASH M$ Winblow$ and get Linux
Sadly, my school won't let me install linux :-(

PS -Sorry for any Spellin errors, its kina late at night ^o^
PPS - Damm I wish I was as skilled as Kirsty, your art is SOOO damm good!
You have an amazing tallent. In fact I have all of your drawings on my computer and I show them to everyone I meet (Sadly most are idots and dont like them and think that kendo is some terror group in the middle east)

[Leprechaun630]

The pinball one doesn't work for me, which icon are you supposed to click?

Yeah I'm new here if you haven't guessed, I'm really interested in Kendo, I've browsed the forums and looked at a few videos and it seems fun and interesting. I'm only 12 though, and I just missed the beginner classes, I don't really know any Dojos around my area (Hillsboro, Beaverton, Portland)
There's only a few Karate dojos (Don't know if they also do Kendo, all it says is KARATE in bold letters) My friend is also interested in it too. Well if you've got any advice, tips, Dojos around my area, please tell me.

Thanks,
Lep

A Giant "K" is in the air! Where is Kaoru-san.

PS - Kaoru-san is the dojo finder around here, if no one responds try PM'ing her

[Wojtee]

I hate to spoil it to you, but this =rand(x,y) is a random text generator. It may be useful when trying formatting styles and such. The parameters (x,y) in the brackets are number of paragraphs and a number of sentences in one paragraph (or something similar, I am not sure here, but try experimenting with smaller numbers than 200,99:)). Yes, and my version of MS Word writes
"Tak už to bývá, když se člověk pustí do křížku s Jazykem", which means "That is how it goes, when a man starts to fight the language" in Czech :)

It just so happens I might know of one...see http://www.obukan.com (http://www.obukan.com/)

[Leprechaun630]

Thanks,
But the problem is, I'll be gone in August in Costa Rica for 2 weeks :(

I probably won't do football this fall, and see if they have beginners Kendo classes in September - December etc.

Man this is gonna be cool:D...hehe sorry

Not really, they just use it becuse it uses each letter of the english lang. It is commonly used to display and show off fonts.

However, If you guys want easter eggs..... here is one for all you mac Fans. On older macs (1.X - 8.6) hold ctr-apple and go to the menu ^o^
