I always refer non-techies to VLC. Like I see many posting here, I prefer MPC and installing my own codecs. I don't know if they changed the interface, but MPC is just faster and works better, which is why I like it.

"Don't be stupid. Other people will try to rip you off. Don't be stupid."
I'm not sure about that last bit, it could also be translated as "Don't be a dumbass", depending on inflection.
Damn, I'm in a mood today.

Comment My company does this (Score 1) 1055
There are 4 different schedules. 2 Fridays, and 2 Mondays. Nobody in my group does the Monday off schedule. Then the Friday off schedule is split about 50/50 so on Fridays, half the staff is there. Everyone seems to adapt well to it and they get a 3 day weekend every other week. It also works very nicely to extend holiday periods because people will shift that day off. Like if that Friday is actually a holiday, they get the Thursday as the 9/80 day. I think after a little while 9 hours seems like 8, as you see many people already work 10 regularly. I personally decline the 9/80s, though. Probably need to try it out.

Man Dies Inside Trash Labyrinth
12
A man whose home was so full of trash that he had to build an network of tunnels to get around may have died after getting lost in the maze. Officials think Gordon Stewart, 74, died as a result of dehydration, after becoming unable to find his way out of the network of carrier bags, boxes, old furniture and other junk. Neighbors had become concerned that they had not seen Mr Stewart for several days and raised the alarm. Officials had no comment on the Bog of Eternal Stench or the whereabouts of the Goblin King.

No it doesn't come as a shock. I still get to give my opinion. Big woop, a fancy music player came out. It doesn't provide any value to me.
Comment Features in a music player? (Score 1) 668
I don't understand the need for any features in a music player other than playing music. Themes? Leave that crap for programs I actually want to look at. A music player needs to play music well. Minimal is better. I use a 7 year old version of Winamp. Works great!
