Being proficient in a language is much less about knowing syntax and the IDE and much more about knowing the idioms of the language.

Then why not offer healthy snacks? I certainly wouldn't say no.

Thanks! I'll admit I didn't do too much research into monitors, this was just based on me moving my head around with various monitor configurations over the years.

Why not?

I agree about the 9:16 monitor, but have had difficulty finding monitors that actually have a decent viewing angle when used that way

Don't underestimate the productivity of being able to work on a hobby project you enjoy

This is why (in Opera), I have the tab bar on the right side of the screen.

1) Tabs are a constant width regardless of how many I have open.
2) It's my way of reclaiming wasted space in those narrow column type websites and forcing large horizontal websites to shrink to a more usable width.

Or taking advantage of the simulation. I don't know the name of the exercise off the top of my head, but I remember the guy exploiting poorly modeled Jeeps(?) to move information.

In a local college town, I remember seeing ads not to toss your pizza boxes in with the rest of the cardboard recycling, because it will contaminate the whole batch. Sounds like you're doing it right!

Off by one error as shown by the incorrect spelling of "it's"

AC really meant "It's Higgs' Boson, mate."

I had a subscription for Analog and Asimov on my Nook, but the terrible quality of the ebook edition (missing paragraphs, no logical separation between chapters, etc) made me drop the subscription months ago. Right now, I just have a couple of IEEE magazines coming in, good for reading when I'm stuck at the airport. I find it hard to get time to read magazine articles lately, because they fall between reading short summaries on Slashdot (preference at work) and reading a good book (preference at home).

It still works, surprisingly. A decade of using Linux and today is the first day I've seen rm used like this. (Not just once, but TWICE).

8 options!? I've been reading polls for years and have never noticed.

I took this to mean my main OS disk. The SSD is getting a little cramped though.
/dev/sda1 83G 50G 29G 64% /

Windows?
/dev/sdc2 298G 252G 47G 85% /media/dspectre/Windows

Steam?
/dev/sdb1 699G 571G 129G 82% /media/dspectre/Steam

NAS?
10.0.0.10:/mnt/user/Documents 3.7T 1.1T 2.6T 29% /home/dspectre/Documents

I initially voted 60-80, but maybe I should have voted 40-60. (The terrifying part is that the NAS is the closest thing I have to backups.)

I often use gnome-open for that same purpose.
