For very large areas using such units makes sense, since having millions of square feet (or square meters for that matter) starts to make little sens to John Doe. The numbers start getting so large they tend to become "meaningless". Like with money; I know what I could do with a million dollars; I can see the limits, but a billion? It's so much it may feel you can do and buy anything with that kind of money, but you really can't. :-)

I usually don't adjust all the clocks around the house until my internal clock is adjusted, so there is still some time left. ;-)

This is also part of a plot to phase out any non-self-adjusting clocks in the house. Too bad a stove is so expensive. I wonder if it will be possible to modify it.

Coming to think of it; this is (so far) one of the very few good reasons to have ethernet/WiFi in household appliances.

I usually plug in my phone for charging whenever it's practical to do so. That way I always have a full charge. A habit I have from driving an electric car; no need to worry about how long it takes to charge it from 0% capacity. :-)

Garage:
Arduino+ethernet shield door opener
Office computer
A couple of servers
0-3 computers being worked on at any time.

House:
Main computer
XBox
Wii
Media-center
NAS
3 Laptops
5 WiFi-enabled mobile phones
iPod

Not counting whatever gizmos I might have enabled and forgotten about, and of course there are some Access points. (2 in the house, 1 in the garage). Also, friends and family that are visiting obviously get free WiFi when they are here. So yes, I have plenty of MAC addresses around on my property.

Mostly it's setting up function calls and modifying which parameters are sent to them. Also, as jklovanc suggests, som ecode is often found on the interweb. ;-)

I don't get to do too much real coding these days. :-|

Does copying, pasting and then slightly modifying count?

If I had quicksilver for "real life", my desktop (and workshop, closets tool shed etc) would really be a whole lot neater.

The same poll will be run next year, and then nobody will be able to select the first option! ;-)

The porn industry has probably already got it.

As would the laptop, external harddrive, USB-stick or whatever other object containing your data. :-)

Careful, or you might find her falling for someone with "attributes" with which you cannot compete. Of course you could always get back at her by sleeping with her girlfriend if it comes to that. Call it a loose-win situation if you like.

I use such magnets for hanging some of my heavier/larger metal tools, such as crowbars, large steel ruler for cutting wallpaper etc.

Perhaps it's time to slaughter some of the other disks I have laying around with obsolete file systems on them so I can hang my shovels on the wall, too.

Stuck with the same options as you, and probably a similar amount of mail I opted for the 0 option to balance it out. I get mail every week, but on less than half the days per week, so 0 is typically it for me.

What? Are you saying that your contry doesn't already have these things in order? In Norway, anyone selling electronics (phones, TVs, refridgeratores, whateverhasachipinit) are obliged to take in old electronics with no charge to the user. (Anyone buying new items are charged a small fee to finance the recycling, but you can turn in as many old items you like at no cost, and without buying anything.) The items are then sent for safe recycling.

Didn't school teach you to read the entire task before starting? A simple "test" was administered to learn us the lesson:

You have fifteen minutes to complete this test. It should be plenty of time:

#1: Read the ENTIRE list before doing ANYTHING
#2: Solve the equation 3(2x +4)=36
#3: Name five large mammals ...
Lots of other odd questions, equations etc. ...
#50: Now that you have read the entire list you can ignore steps 2-49. Sit back, relax, and watch your fellow students that failed to understand #1 struggle to finish the test in time.

Needless to say, most of us failed this test, but we still learned a valuable lesson. c",)
