I'm doing it in javascript - just kind of time consuming to get all the html elements and events going.

acetaminophen (aka Tylenol) has some concerns regarding liver damage. Regardless of the "overdose" information listed in the article, my mother-in-law has significant liver damage due to acetaminophen.

Not saying you shouldn't take it, but just something to be aware of.

A pretty simply test would be to use the laptop or the iPad, where you know they have good wireless antennae, and see what your signal strength is. If your laptop and iPad have a hard time, it's probably a poor signal from the wireless router. Otherwise, grab a wireless router you know has a good si...

I've used a few - I like SimpleHelix.net simply because they are so friendly, but their admin page is a challenge.

At work, we have 20+ domains through gkg.net. Pretty easy to work with and make changes. Though I've used NetSol, and didn't think they were bad.

Similar issues can mean that the battery is not charged enough to boot. Sometimes the cord isn't plugged in, or it's defective, so it tries to use the battery.

That's probably fair. Definitely requires a lot more talent to be good at it. Maybe that's why it doesn't have as much of an appeal.

Thenior

Because it doesn't appeal to the current market. You plop Descent into todays market, and it'll flop faster then a fish on land. I know you're going to say you don't care, and that Descent is made to appeal to the current market. But I think if you took Descent I or II, and polished it a bit, you'd ...

By "it", they probably just have javascript blocked - since ajax is just javascript making page requests.

I want to try this - going to be a challenge.

I took a biz math class recently, all open book. What was difficult, though, was every quiz had a 30 minute cap, and had 10 questions. Each question was a Word problem. Very hard to get each problem done in 3 minutes. The final and mid term were worse - you had like 2.5 minutes per question, and had...

Rifles tend to recoil backward, Pistols tend to recoil up, simply because of the way you hold them/their size. But realistically, if I am aiming with either a Rifle or Pistol, the recoil is mostly going to push me up. I have to retarget everytime. Usually games have a "blind fire" or "...

From what I read on the LMI forums, you can't do what you want to do with the free version of LMI. You need something like IT-Reach, or maybe LMI pro.

Or is this one of those things where I have to go to a specialized firm that has that big weird glasses simulator with the crazy buttons, leavers, and knobs? Correct. Sort of... if Wal-Green says they have Eye Care, that probably means they have an on-staff optometrist. I've gone to Costco, Wal-Mar...

if you have a astigmatism, you'll be amazed when you put on new perscription glasses. Two years ago, I got some glasses and they worked really good. A couple weeks ago, I went in for a checkup because my eyes were getting sore. I can't believe how much better I can see long distance again.

In my experience (which isn't massive, granted), LMI has been the least buggy remote desktop solution I've used. If you can figure out a way to keep using it, I would.

Hey guys, I bought a camera from amazon the other day, and they sent me an email saying I had a $400 credit toward the purchase of any non-student CS5.5 suite. I have no use for the adobe suite, since we already have licenses @ work. If anyone wants it, PM me and we can work out the details. I also ...

Seriously - if you're in Phoenix with the dry weather, then fine. But places like GA, you're body can't cool off. People die fairly often from it.

Does anyone here use Grooveshark?

For upbeat music, I like listening to Red. Maybe a little more hardcore then you are looking for.

Are you sure? It seems like length of time spent at a site would be the most sketchy of all. If I open four results in new tabs, how long am I spending at any of them? Could I not easily lower my competitor's rank by spending no time at his site (and conversely raise my own)? I can't find any refer...

It's not only who links you, because that alone is quite easy to abuse. Popularity plays a part - that's why Wikipedia entries figure near the top of almost any search. There are probably a lot of other things as well. I recall that Bing uses several hundred factors (maybe thousand but I think hund...

Kind of off topic, but I seriously wish Audio Jungle could have streaming music - I like a lot of the stuff there.

There's a bigger perspective here... By putting ads out there, you don't directly influence your google ranking. You do, however, create more exposure for your brand, which can result in links to your brand, which, as Jeff250 noted, is what boosts your rank. I should strongly note that not all links...

Heck, you can get a fairly decent 19" LCD for $100 these days.

I have a pair of studio Sennheiser headphones that work great - they aren't made to make music sound cool, they are meant so you can hear everything with clarity.

Like when playing xbox live, and I can hear someones footsteps behind me...

Adobe browser labs works with javascript (obviously you can't interact with it). What is nice is you can setup overlayed screenshots of each browser, and see how they differ. You can also have it delay before it takes it snapshot (so if you have javascript that delays or something).

Isn't it funny how you can think about any idea for a long time, and then you put it out there, and within a couple hours someone says something and you realize you're going about it wrong?

Going to work on this and rethink how I am approaching it. Probably a little to wishy washy.

you have a very good point! I may hav e to restructure it a little bit. Thanks for the comments.

It's a pretty amazing building. It's a little like a spaceship landed. It's got this gorgeous courtyard in the middle... It's a circle. It's curved all the way around.
