Re: Things that piss you off

I don't have the drivers license to get to a doctor (doubt I'd be able to drive a car efficiently) and this has been going on for about 4 hours now. Couldn't sleep well due to pain. Woke up at 4 AM in excruciating pain, took 30 minutes before I could lie down again. Woke up at 7:30, stood up and co...

Doesn't it also work if you don't set any size in the user control panel? You'd just have to make sure they all respect the size limits beforehand.

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

Also apparently advertisers like Google and such are paying AdBlock to let theirs through anyway so either there's going to be paid ads that get through the feature or people are going to abandon it completely. That's Adblock Plus. Regular Adblock and Adblock Edge (and probably a dozen other forks)...

Re: Things that piss you off

Well I can tell you right off the bat that you should strike the "thanks for noticing me" bits along with anything else that degrades you. Anyone who says you should put them in is being stupid and wants you to fail. The example the teacher supplied has those bits so I think I'd better keep them. B...

Re: Things that piss you off

In my most useless class I need to show I can use an office suite by creating my resume as it could be 15 years from now (we have to go through some online jobs websites and pick some offers and use them as our imaginary past experiences) and writing a presentation letter and the whole thing makes m...

Re: The Current Events Thread

It's idiotic because the news is "New pope does something positive" and you get angry about the old pope having done something negative. I used to be just like that some years ago but at some point I stopped. It's just a waste of energy and it brings everybody else down too. Just appreciate that som...

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

One of my teachers uses a Macbook, owns an ipod, an iphone and an ipad and won't stop talking about the iPhone app he created but swears he is not sold to Apple. Today I heard him telling a student how Retina displays are "totally worth the extra $500" and how he can't wait for the iTV to come out. ...

Re: The Current Events Thread

Yeah. I think they have guidelines to tell when it would become ostentatious. The cross would have to be big and shiny and hanging on top of the wearer's shirt or something. So far the opposition is against it, the federal government is against it, a sizeable portion (if not a majority) of activist ...

Re: The Current Events Thread

Stephen Harper, prime minister of Canada, just prorogated the parliament for the third fucking time because once again his party is in deep shit and he doesn't want the opposition to be able to do anything about it. The first time, the opposition was considering forming an alliance to dethrone him. ...

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

Today in my Let's Waste Three Hours A Week class we saw the prerequisites to become a computer engineer and the mere thought of ever going back to university made me feel physically ill.
