Living Room / Re: What will be your next computer?
« Last post by mouser on July 15, 2012, 07:24 AM »
I plan on using Windows 8 but I have no intention of using that Metro touch-screen-centric user interface.  Job one will be making the desktop look and feel just like windows 2000, and installing Find and Run Robot and LaunchBar Commander and use those to handle desktop like I do now.

I have no desktop icons on my desktop, it's completely 100% blank.  Not even a background image.  Just my system tray of icons.  The actual desktop is a completely clean blue blank space.  And that's how I like it.

I'm just amazed at how you embraced this gargantuan project. I know I shouldn't have been surprised given how you tackled the other projects I've seen you work on, but still.. Many people talk the talk, few people walk the walk.  It's just been very cool and impressive to see in action.  Your journey reminds me of the real scientific explorers of our past, documenting details for future generations..  Thank you for sharing it with us.

LaunchBar Commander / Re: Change the docks so they are in the background.
« Last post by mouser on July 14, 2012, 06:12 PM »
LBC is designed to hide into the background when a FULL-SCREEN program (like a game or screensaver) activated, but this is not the same as when a window is maximized.

Are you talking about the case when you maximize a window?

Once you are in the screenshot captor interface, you can actually change selection mode to circle, lasso, magic wand, etc. (see edit menu).

ProcessTamer / Re: Does the "Process Tamer" work on a "Placebo effect"!?
« Last post by mouser on July 14, 2012, 05:50 AM »
There is a lot of debate about whether "memory" optimizers do anything -- I won't get into those.

Process Tamer and similar apps are doing something different.

Process Tamer changes the priority of apps so that some apps get more cpu cycles from the computer than others every second.

It's a very specific action which serves to make your computer more responsive to your input, by slowing down programs which would otherwise dominate the cpu, OR by doing the opposite -- giving certain programs more of the cpu so that they perform faster, but at the expense of slowing down other programs and the operating system user interface.

This is not magic and it's not a hoax, it's a real feature that can be useful in certain cases.

(The prevalence of superfast multi-core cpus makes tools like Process Tamer less critical than they are on slower single core cpus, because with multiple cores it's not often that your computer will be unresponsive due to a single program hogging the cpu).

It should be said that while pokerstars is a legit site, there is a high chance you will receive gambling spam at the email you sign up with, so use an email address that you don't mind getting spam at (and if you don't have such an email address, time to get one).

Americans and people who don't want to be gambling real money are directed by the site to download the software from:


When you install it, choose custom install and uncheck the Internet Explorer toolbar button.

A bunch more soldier returns to dog videos here:
http://www.mentalflo...logs/archives/106498

#6 is pretty cool because the dog is scared of the "stranger" at first before he recognizes him.

NOTE:
The only thing that detracts from these videos for me is the fact that there is a dog in my building who will react this insanely to every person he meets, whether its the first time you see him or the 100th.  So.. some dogs are just drama queens..

We've all seen plenty of these, but you still have to marvel at the pure happiness dogs display when they see their friends.. We could learn a lot from them.

Living Room / What went wrong at Digg: publishers, PR hacks and power users ruled the roost
« Last post by mouser on July 13, 2012, 09:33 AM »
From BoingBoing today, comes a short piece on the collapse of the website digg.com.

Note: I wrote a longish piece attaking the digg model in 2006, back in it's heyday, and I wasn't the only one; see How Digg Gets Everything Backwards.. And How to Fix It .

The only way to consistently get stuff on the home page was to work at it like a job. ... everyday users were realizing that nothing they submitted ever even had a chance in hell of going to the front page. They weren't empowered netizens visiting from the future, but chumps who were being played by Digg and a bunch of "social-media consultants."

It would be useful if there was some free zip file somewhere that contained a bunch of forms to fill out to cover all of these issues.. A living will, a place to list important passwords, etc.

Screenshot Captor / Re: want to invoke PrinterDialog, using -setprinter?
« Last post by mouser on July 12, 2012, 09:32 AM »
Ath's solution may work and is a good general solution when you need to set the default printer for any app,

BUT you are using MiniCap, which has a way to specify the printer to use and does not require changing the default printer.

From the MiniCap help file, pass commandline option "-setprinter" as follows:

-setprinter PRINTERNAME
sets a specific printer for printing (to get a list invoke -setprinter list); you can use the full name or a substring
