High Quality IS internet...

I never/rarely see someone using "HQ" in which he meant "head-quarters"

And I've NEVER seen HQ refer to high quality anywhere. However I see HQ used a lot for head quarters.

GG NRM ^ ^- What cocky people say before a game (good game no remake im a happy little bastard)
BM- Bad mannars, MG- Mannar game, we have these terms becuase of people who stay when they've clearly lost or people who insult you or claim you hack upon no evidence... typical bad mannars are "F U" "OMFG I NO U HAK?!?!?!111111" and "GAY!" plus everything else written in caps lock, god I hate that key, you don't even have to move your pinky an inch to turn it off. That's all you really need to know, most of the other stuff is pretty obvious and you can guess like purp is obviously purple and ty and yw are thank you and your welcome respectivly. Something less obvious is wb (welcome back) but they don't have much effect on your stay.

*sigh*
No, that is false.
N00b/noob = Arrogant moron/retard/idiot; refuses to learn from others, no matter how glaringly obvious it is that n00b in question is wrong, being stupid, of less talent, exagerating, over-hyping, etc. Can have had played for any amount of time, from a couple minutes, to years.

Newb/Newbie = Someone who is new. Usualy willing to learn.

65536 is 2^16, means 16bit, mostly used to depine the graphic level tho is may be also used for music quality and varible type.
The reason it's 65535 and not 65536 is beause computer start counting from 0 and not from one so it's one number back.

Picture:

*.BMP = 32bit-64bit (maximum 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 different colors, this is why bmp files are bit and being replaced with jpg and gif - they have a very similar qualinty for a human eye and still jpg and gif are ten times (more actually) smaller than bmp)
*.BMP on low mode = 8bit (256 colors)
*.JPG = 8bit (256 colors)
*.GIF = 4bit (16 colors)

Sound:
PC Speaker = depends on fie size, you hear it even without speakers.
*.MIDI = no clue -.- midi is different from others and I know it works alittle similar to PC Spekaer yet you do need speakers to play it... anyhow... it weights a little.
*.MP3 = 16bit
*.WAV = 8/16/32 bit, depends on what quality. on highest quality it can mix together different files on-playing with no editing.

As AqoTrooper said, it's one of the powers of 2. Same with 255.
In 1337, it would translate to gssges.

Powers of 2 assuming you are starting at 0. 65535 is 2 bytes (8 bit bytes).
