Some pictures of the sunset here a week ago.-Arizona Hot (June 29, 2015, 11:53 AM)
I always enjoy seeing Arizona (I was going to say the desert - but I dont know if it is - would you call it desert?)Check the Amazon reviews, there is one user who is happily using it with a 15.6" laptop.-dr_andus (June 28, 2015, 04:47 PM)
I'm using it with an HP Chromebook 14, and there is still over 1cm left on both sides. I don't have the sliding problem some of the reviewers referred to, as the HP has 4 big rubber feet that keep it stable.-dr_andus (June 28, 2015, 10:04 AM)
- it's 15.6"I use this one with my 14" laptop: Fellowes Portable Laptop Riser GoRiser Notebook stand.
It's plastic, so it's OK to use in the summer, and it folds, which makes it portable.-dr_andus (June 27, 2015, 04:09 PM)
The woman seemed quite different - *most* of what she said seemed fairly reasonable to me (but it also wasn't quite clear here e.g. what her 'research' was).-tomos (June 28, 2015, 06:48 AM)
| The 'process' enables her to intuitively paint structures such as cancer cells, the effects of methadone on the brain and the make-up of the H-bomb. Rachel states that all her work is an on-going individuation process (deeply religious and philosophical), and forms the backbone of her research into brain function. Her art work concerning several sciences express both fundamental laws and various techniques and technologies used in current research methods. Some scientists have verified that her works do correspond to actual structures and further more could potentially provide further insights into several areas of science. Rachel is recognised by the contemporary art world as a serious artist of merit, though they have been slow to recognise that the 'process' is a trait, and only a trait, of exceptional ability, recognised by researcher in the field of creativity/exceptional ability/giftedness. Rachel's work has been seriously considered by the Tate Gallery but is still to find a gallery willing to promote her work (Rachel's work is highly innovative). Rachel says that the 'other' neural process that produces all her art is the intense, flexible, divergent, abstract thinking brain that was previously 'blocked' when in a state of cognitive deficit. She animatedly says that what is most extraordinary is that her brain allows her to experience her unconscious processes, physiologically, providing a 'vehicle' and permanent access via her 'creativity', to the fathomless depths of her unconscious mind (allowing new ideas to be born). She talks passionately about Jesus whom she believes achieved the ultimate brain state (consciousness itself: enlightenment) and believes that her ability could provide further clues to the neurocognitive processes accessed by Jesus of Nazereth himself. |
the title seems like a bit of a misnomer, as, from the best I could understand, it was only Sadat who thought he was Jesus Christ/God. The other two just seemed to claim that they communicated with and/or channeled intelligence/revelation from a higher power/God.yeah...-Deozaan (June 28, 2015, 02:44 AM)

FAQ: How Microsoft will update Windows 10 Computerworld-Arizona Hot (June 27, 2015, 08:03 PM)
Whether it's because Microsoft wants to expand feedback (its rationale) or simply wants to shift the testing burden from its engineers to users (the cynic's view), the company will employ customers to shake out bugs more than ever before.
The company hasn't been shy about saying so. "Enterprises will be able to receive feature updates after their quality and application compatibility has been assessed in the consumer market," Jim Alkove, director of program management for Microsoft's enterprise group, said in a January blog post.

People keep saying they "uninstall Java", but then when I do stuff like that now and then (I can't remember very many specific examples at the moment) specific things say they need Java, so I have to put it back.-TaoPhoenix (June 27, 2015, 07:29 AM)

Try to scroll-capture this page: http://pastebin.com/Dhq65dAG
The capturing itself works well (besides I couldn't get a proper auto-scroll with the newest Firefox Beta). But: when it comes to overlapping settings, changing any value results in a "There's not enough memory for this action" message. I've 16GB of RAM and set Memory Usage to 5000MB in ScreenshotCaptor (a 32-bit program though)

Web Architect:
50 euro/free version (some limitations I think)[?]
It is very beginner friendly:
- everything is easily accessible via ribbon UI
I didnt find it very user friendly:
- it is mouse intensive, and keyboard unfriendly (no shortcuts for very basic things)
- no customisable shortcuts that I could find, at any rate

Note 1: The cabinet has not yet been "finished" -- i just wanted to see what it would look like -- i have to remove everything and put many coats of polyeurethane on to give it some sheen and protect the wood.-mouser (June 24, 2015, 06:40 PM)

even though I have a license key for Win 8 Pro, I have never even tried Win 8, mainly because I was told I would have to create a Microsoft Account and log in to it!-Curt (June 24, 2015, 03:01 AM)
Mine actually has a pretty good screen. If I wasn't keeping it within the parameters of paying what I received for my MBP, there are some really good screens out there for $1200-$1500 or so in the 13" range.
