Academia rightfully doesn't give a sh** about weather it's preparing you to shuffle work around or not.
Yeah, my school really didn't think that bad weather was a good excuse not to come to lectures either.
I dunno, I believe I played most of Resident Evil 4 stretched out on my stressless. You don't really need big movements to point at the screen or even to shake the Wiimote around. (Although I guess the pointing part depends on your TV/living room setup.)
The hint is to not keep your hand lifted up all the time, but to just let it rest on your lap, knee or the armrest, even when you need to point it on the screen.
We want to make sure some poor bastard isn't buried alive, so we drain ALL of his blood!! Even vampires don't walk again once we've flushed their radiators with Drano!!
Tell that to the mummies.
Hmm, so could Apple instead start requiring money from ASCAP for advertising their songs with the 30s clips?
Where's Aquaman when we need him?
Double win if they deposit money from your ex' accounts!
What's this about clicking on a button to stop/reload?
I use keyboard shortcuts for everything except for actually browsing on a website and clicking on links (and bookmarks). Escape to stop a page load. F5 or Ctrl-R for reloads. AFAIK (or remember), this works in all major browsers. And I don't even need to take my hand of the mouse to press those buttons!
But, that asides, I'm sure your point is a valid point.
Actually, I bought a "cheap" Toshiba 52" LCD HDTV, and found that it can't use full HD with the PC input... my laptop has HDMI output though, so it wasn't a problem for me, but it's something you should beware of. I'm not sure if more expensive HDTVs are any better, although I feel that they should be...
Where's Aquaman when you need him?
Hmm..... Why was that posted as AC? Did I accidentally check the "Post Anonymously" box? Is there a bug somewhere? Bah.
The biggest problem is that you cannot have multiple versions of Internet explorer installed on the same computer.
Actually, I played around a bit with this: http://tredosoft.com/Multiple_IE, which seemed to work somehow. It was almost nostalgic to start up IE3 again, and kind of fun seeing it rendering various webpages horribly.
Well, CAPTCHAs are only supposed to prevent computers from solving them. So per definition, underpaid workers in poor countries should not have a problem solving them.
Rather, if those workers couldn't solve them, *that* would mean there's a problem with the CAPTCHA.
But I do get your point, that there might not be a perfect way to stop spam... Kind of sad.
A technical magazine in Norway has actually started a campaign to get rid of IE6 in workplaces: http://translate.google.com/translate?prev=hp&hl=no&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tu.no%2Ftema%2Fie6-kampen%2F&sl=no&tl=en Not sure how successful it'll be, but it's encouraging nevertheless.
Of course, the rest of the world might not be in such luck.
Sorry, this is of course not correct. Gaming is obviously not going to make mornings as bad as after drinking.
What I meant was that after gaming all night, mornings aren't going to be the best you're gonna feel all day.
