It's not the brightness, it's the contrast. I can't see shit in low light... I had myopia now after a had crystalline implants I see almost 20/20 at almost any range except in the 0-50cm proximity in low light. I could read at the light of the stars with myopia, now I can't read shit... but I can see the writing. I found that if I have more light (contrast) I can almost read anything a normal person can read.

9 and 3
8 and 4

But like a stupid person I keep my hands at 10 and 12 - I have no idea why I do this. 12 or the parking brake.

So many people forget about how AMD changed the game more then once, It would be a shame for them to go under.

x86-64, on CPU northbridge and memory channel.

And ITX motherboards with e350 have like 4 sata3 ports - I have one of the beasts running a storage server... you have to buy some expensive motherboard from Intel to have that.

No... no... no... Let me tell you how it happens - in Romania: you take some slaves (aka students) and put them to study a small set of the problem (like a chapter of your thesis) and then you take the best works and you make them your own. The students should be punished!!!

So I agree with alphatel, but nobody got paid. :)

I know... asking an AC - what is this temple rush trick? Never heard of it.

Citation needed? Where the fuck did you got that numbers?

I could have gone to medical school... but I was to stubborn to do that. My mother is a medical assistant Due to this I could probably make a good emergency triage without any additional training, take blood samples and administer intravenous and intramuscular injections. I know more about human body then anything else... even computers - sometimes I don't even know that I know it.
I believe that if you have some brains you can get a really good kick start from your parents field without effort.

I have a Fiat Fiorino with no windows in the back. Just for my safety I've put a rear parking sensor that warns you with beeps if you have anything near you. It's a dumb distance sensor, but it works great, there is no need for a rear camera, yeah it would be great - but a sensor is better you can get a sense of distance from the beep intervals, even if you don't know what is there. With a camera you don't have a depth field.

How on earth is six ounces small for a coffee?

I usually drink one short espresso (one ounce cup) on my way to whatever takes me on the road.

You are not tossing garbage... you are using it to speed up!

Or you can do this... set a gmail account to send every year a few alerts to various e-mails like close relatives/friends with the login and password to the master account from where they can extract the rest of the info to get to the rest of your online life. Set a few others to be sent to you at various points reminding you that you should reset the alerts. If you miss 3 alerts the chances are that they will have access in a year, in the worst case scenario.

The real life (bank accounts, health related records and other serious staff) should be accessed only through the law and proof of death.

LO000OOKS!!! (Some zombies are shallow and go for look, not brains. :P)

What is this streaming you talk about? All I see is "buffering..." and I don't know about your tastes, but I don't like it.

I have yet to see a place where Google applied the embrace, extend, extinguish strategy that Microsoft used everywhere.

Well said! And if we are at keys we need - I'll never buy a keyboard without the INS/Delete HOME/END PageUp/PageDown keys.
Probably I'm too fucking old - but I love my Ctrl/Shift+Insert and can't stand ctrl+x/c/v.
