It was probably evolutionarily advantageous for people to sleep at different times, in different patterns and for different lengths of time. Better coverage of watching for predators, certain game my be easier to hunt at different times, etc.

That is what make the series so awesome! Cutting character lines would harm it greatly, though it could use some trimming in repetitive description, and recapping stuff we already knew.

I am 29. I didn't text much at all (once in a month was rare for me) until I got a phone with a real keyboard (n900), and started dating. When we are apart (most of the time; we are in different states), my girlfriend and I communicate mostly via sms, then phone calls, then IM, then email.
I can't really work on Windows without VirtuaWin these days. And True X-Mouse, although it has problems, and doesn't really work with Win7, which we are about to move to at work...

It previously had been up for about four days (well, suspended (S3) at night and while at work), and was something like 3.3 GB and 2.5 GB virt and res I think. Doesn't get a lot higher than that unless testing like 300-400 tabs, at which point things start to fall apart...

I had dual stack on for a while, I haven't set the tunnel back up since I moved, but I will before that date. And maybe Comcast will let me get native IPv6 at that time.

Yes, strip it down and dumb it down even more, after all, that is what makes Apple crap and Chrome so popular.
Fuck that, MoFo should never have ditched Mozilla for FF. It was and is (as SeaMonkey) the better product. I don't care how popular "simplicity" (really just lack of capability) is with the morons, I want something powerful and flexible that easily lets me do what I want.
SeaMonkey (aka Mozilla): Edit -> preferences -> privacy & security -> images Image acceptance policy:
do not load any images
only load images that come from the originating server
load all images
There is definitely something weird going on in cases like that. OS issues, bad extension usage, something. I have to get upward of 400 tabs across multiple windows before encountering any problems even close to that, in both SeaMonkey and FF.
Standard usage for me is 50-150 tabs, usually up for 2-4 days, maybe a week (several weeks at a time when I tracked the nightlies manually instead of with the autoupdater), no problems at all... Although this is on Linux. Seems like more (but not all) of these problems come from Windows users.

Where do you live, Antarctica?
That is really horrible. My dad had swing shift when he worked at the mill, it was on a monthly basis and was still awful. I can't imagine weekly.

>The problem was AMD didn't bet hard enough on ramping up clock speeds.
Clock speeds have barely moved lately.
>Hertz to Hertz, AMD makes a better processor.
Not since the Core2, and even less competitive in the "i" era
And the stories of the each one of the 13 dwarves, and Tom, and Beorn, and at least 3 of the eagles, and Smeagol, and Bard, and...
Which is why WoT is so good.

Nine and Ten begin to pick up after the low point at Eight...
Third time through Eight I breezed right through it, though.
The Death Gate Cycle is great and all, but it is trivial compared to WoT.

I can't use focus follows mouse with overlapping windows... it is fine with a tiling WM, though.

Doesn't have one. Vim has a good one, however (Emacs can also imitate Vim)
>But I think you're right that the LIA was a false start of a new ice age
We are in an Ice Age, and have been for millions of years. You probably mean "Glaciation Period", which are things that happen during Ice Ages.
You just had to mention Xaw, didn't you? I will have nightmares tonight. Ugly nightmares.
undo slip of the mouse mod
you mean /dev/random

Only one of your posts can be correct.
"optimized and without all the gunk." vs "The only thing stripped out is ActiveX compatibility, which nobody used, anyway" and "Pale Moon actually re-added the Status Bar"
Yeah, this needs to be non-drm, and an open format. Probably epub 3
The iPad is the wrong platform for this. Something eink based or possibly Pixel Qi (if you wanted color and animation/video) based would be better.
