As everything in life, more price -> better performance. Unless you want the top of the line model (which will cost you dearly), try to stay in the middle, and buy something manufactured by a well-known brand, like Kingston, SanDisk, Corsair, etc.

This is the article BigJim is talking about. And this comparison at AnandTech is also very helpful, despite its age, most of what is said there still applies today.

Well, well, Jon von Tetzchner hinted in a interview that some extension-esque functionality will eventually come to Opera at some point. Those are good news :)

It must be the web developers tools, the story has started to propagate around the web, and everyone is betting on that possibility, both the guy running Avencius and the commenters at Opera Watch

Try using this mega patch, it looks to be a cumulative update for any version of Battlefield 1942 (Half-Life also has things like this)

My guess is that they're getting Yngwie Malmsteen for the Opera project ;D

I don't know, I prefer to be surprised. As long as it's something that does not make me cry (</Scoble>), weird hype it's not good :)

What intrigues me is why he has so many Internet Explorer 7 references in his desk...

Post New Requests Here / Re: DONE: MiniMe (aka MaxiMe)
« Last post by Lashiec on February 25, 2008, 08:08 AM »
Yeah, some passwords contain various capital letters, but Yahoo Mail! only contains one, which is puzzling.

EDIT: OK, I edited the script to use both 'Control' keys, but no good. For no reason, Firefox is minimized and the focus jumps to the arrow that hides and show the tray icons. Weird. I guess I'll deactivate the script for now.

Post New Requests Here / Re: DONE: MiniMe (aka MaxiMe)
« Last post by Lashiec on February 24, 2008, 09:19 PM »
Mmmm, a problem has appeared. The program conflicts somehow with KeePass. I usually type my password for Yahoo Mail! manually, for various reasons (the most important being that I don't have KeePass in my PenDrive, so no access to the database outside home), but I decided to input it in KeePass to make things easier, and then the bug made its appearance.

Essentially, I can't log in to Yahoo!, because there is some weird minimizing and maximizing going on between the two windows (Firefox and KeePass), that prevent all details from being sent to the login page. After trying various times, searching around the KeePass help, and bashing my head against the wall, I remembered MiniMe, I closed it and... now works! Never encountered this problem with Opera, because I only run MiniMe in certain occasions, though it's also affected, albeit in a minor way (I can log in, but I can't see the login process).

Oh well, time to whip up another shortcut, I guess I'll use key combinations. Just to let people know if something strange happens with their windows.

HELL YEAH! I'd really want a plugin like that. It would even better if vitalyb could add that capability to his FARRAltTab plugin

Very cool! Some questions arise after gazing at the picture details:

 1) Who is the captain of the bathtub?
 2) And the captain of the distant ship in the horizon?
 3) Is Cody disoriented by the loss of one of his eyes?

I didn't try any of these apps though, if I needed this feature (unlikely), I'd use WinWarden, as you say.

Maybe if you tick off the box named "Allow the system to turn off this device to save energy" (loose translation) in the Properties dialog for your "USB root hub" (loose translation again) accessed via the Device Manager, you could use the most advanced state without problems. The ethernet port also suffers from the same problem, but unchecking the box helps.

What kind of method are you using to determine the safety of a given file? Checking up if certain details are present in the file (name of the product, developer...), or something more complex?

Why are you checking the supporter yearbook when you should be checking the full forum member list sorted by post count?

188 members with 50+ posts (check page 4)
-app103 (February 22, 2008, 11:38 AM)

Because I don't have permission to access that list :)

Mmm, I wonder what's the use of this if college students already have MSDNAA, with quite more software available free of charge, even Windows Vista and Server.

I wonder what's the meaning of "stable social relationships" in the modern world, with the Internet and everything. If we consider each person we know inside and outside the computer, I think I surpass the 150 number (well, even with only the ones outside :D), that's why I wonder when do we consider a relationship as "stable" :tellme:

In other news, urlwolf wants to challenge the theory by dragging DC in Facebook. Uh-oh. Don't forget to check up MySpace, I'm sure Barack Obama is in the thousands or something ;D

Yeah, the first time I guided myself by the member count in the title bar... there are 60 in the first page, 61 in the second and 39 in the third with more than 50 posts. That makes... 160 :)
