Look, I'm not gonna race you to the bottom and play the who-has-the-shittier-life game. Seems like you'd win, in any case.:-)
And I'm not saying RSI is the worst thing that has ever happened to anybody, ever, either.
All I'm saying is: If you think, RSI is just a numbness in your hands that you can shrug off, you're wrong. And your original post still very much reads like that, even though I now know better.
Keyboard stress? Bah. There are a lot of worse pains you can suffer.
As a general rule, don't downplay other people's health problems, especially if you never had it yourself. People don't like it.
And no, two days of one numb hand does not count as RSI.
Seriously. RSI is A LOT more than just pain in the hands, has a very diverse set of causes, affects the whole body, and causes a whole bag of other health problems, a lot of them psychological by nature. As an added bonus, everybody and his mom either thinks you are fake, because you don't look sick and the docs don't "find anything" (you gotta ask the right docs who know what to look for), or think you're a softie, or proposes a one-stop solution that doesn't even begin to address the complex issue that is RSI.
Been there, done that, got it more or less under control now (note: that is not the same as healed or pain free, but as good as it gets). But I really, really don't want to go there again.
Since the point of steganography is not disguising the fact that you are talking to a specific person but to hide the real conversation in a seemingly legit one, the downside is kinda by design.
Same thing here.
I still don't know how I managed to read the complete first book. It just seems too random - and by that I don't mean 'the plot' (there isn't much of it), I mean *everything*. Names of persons and places, for example.
A Song of Ice and Fire is, in my opinion, the best fantasy story out there. Makes Tolkien look like a confused old fairy tale uncle.
Realistic characters, lots of greys (as in bad guys act bad for a good reason and the other way around), no hesitation to kill off main characters/heroes, etc.
While you wait for the next book, I suggest 'The First Law' series by Joe Abercrombie.
Totally OT:
your sig is pretty close to German, but not quite there yet.
Mensch has an 's' in it.
the order of 'Menschen' and 'das' is wrong, and 'das' should be written as 'dass'.
And don't get me started on 'einfältigfehlersuchenbaumfolgendenaffen'.:-)

This is an aggressive beer. You probably won't like it. It's quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate an ale of this quality and depth.
Do yourself a favor and try REAPER (http://www.reaper.fm). Extremely reasonable price (50$ for a non-commercial license), and kicks some serious ass.
I'm not sure how stable the mac port is though.
You can just dump stuff on it. Works like a charm under linux. The only thing that doesn't work is the 'Charging the device' animation. It does tell you when it's fully charged, tho.

Scheisse.
What a bizarre thing to say about a web app.

Actually, I kinda fear that you may be right, but I'm too much of a sissy to admit it to myself. :)
Not another 'Otherland', pleeeeeaaaaassseee.

I do love Band-in-a-Box, but it really has a horrible UI.

Thank you for this refreshingly self-critical and insightful comment. We need to see this sort of thinking more often here.

Add some beer, and it'll be six.
Barbara Liskov? You know, of Liskov Substitution Principle fame?

try a 'killall npviewer.bin' when that happens. This way, you won't lose your opened tabs.

I'm a happy owner of a Cowon IAudio7. OGG and FLAC support out of the box, great sound, nice interface, big storage capacity.
That's SO not funny, dude.
