Living Room / Re: The entitled generation....Are they right?

« Last post by rgdot on April 15, 2009, 12:08 PM »

As has been mentioned it's the method rather than the object itself. How they pursue and threaten with lawyers, how they treat the small guy is the problem. I wouldn't even blame talentless artists, because no one is forcing anybody to buy a Britney album, if you buy the hype and marketing the marketer is not the (only) one to blame. That extends to things like photoshop, paying nearly 4 digit dollars is not forced on anybody, if you really need it for a job the employer should buy you a license and deal with photoshop sales people and tactics.

A membership card with the username and user's info on it, as suggested above, would be my preference over a large(r) sticker.
As for other things I would say key tags or chains, of course that's more cost prohibitive both in ordering and mailing.

Thanx for the info and the system that is place is generous and better than fair in my opinion.

Made me laugh when I saw Mac got 5.8% of 5
Highest percentage is 40-50 year old? interesting

For sure here and elsewhere have heard good things about JKDefrag, time to give it a try I guess.

As far as your points go I am not going to claim you are wrong, but barring Diskeeper I have used the other two tools on numerous pcs with vastly different configs and usage (for example mine is full of downloads, some others barely anything downloaded except Firefox and couple of IMs and so on)

12GB of RAM? wish I could go for that.

I don't know, I never saw any noticeable benefit from defraging, either using Windows' own or paging files PageDefrag or a few years back on my old machine when I owned a legal copy of Diskeeper

Information organized on a good (enough for your liking or requirements) laptop. I can never be organized using a device that fits in one hand, nor on a 24" monitor with a tower. Happy medium will always work for me no matter what the new technology and latest gadget is.

Does anybody know how the above mentioned Viewer2 opens folder or multiple ones for that matter? I tried it and I have to open an image then right click and cycle through the files in the same folder.

As a possible solution you could use xneat windows manager and middle click on their title bar to hide specific apps

EDIT: If you mean the tray icon, I don't believe xneat does that

QUIT. NOW. Playing soccer kills the little part of your brain that helps you code, and IT NEVER REGENERATES!
You have been warned.

InvisionFree is a sort of similar to Forumer but haven't used either because when possible I try to avoid free hosting only because I am just not sure no matter how good previous experiences may have been.
If it was just hosting I have extra bandwidth and space with a good host that I am willing to provide for free for good sites but I won't go further and spam.

The more I read this thread the more I want to try Linkman, thanx to all. For years I wanted better bookmark management, FF3's tagging and storing went a long way but Linkman seems very good compared to the numerous bookmark managers I have tried over the years.

Whoa!! That's some heavy tabbing.  What I'm still trying to find out is why it's written in stone that the back button has to reload the page.  I don't fathom what the cache is there for if you can't reload stuff you just downloaded 3 seconds ago when you hit the back button.  Very strange design.

That debate or question has been asked on mozillazine and other related places for years, going back to the mozilla days. Never understood it.

Just for the record my experience is close to cyberdiva, 12 add-ons and a similar computer. And FF is easily the most sluggish program on it and I have lots of programs that I download to play around with and test. Keep my pc as tuned as I can turning off unneeded stuff and deleting startups, etc. so other things while not great considering the age of my system are still good.
