  3. Re:Class was a solid group. This is a sad day. on Operation Fastlink Cracks Down on Warez · · Score: 1

  4. uneccessary on Rochester Signs Napster Deal, Hosts P2P Panel · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It's a shame that an educational institution has to make a deal with a corporation to sate the appetitie of the RIAA's lawyers. I'm guessing the cost of this will eventually be passed onto students if they approve the service. Why don't they just pay for all you can watch movies too?

  5. Re:Sweet on Apple's iTunes DRM Cracked? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Thanks. I also found a program called MyTunes that works in Windows.

  7. Disconnect the Internet and Start Immediately on How Do You Get Work Done? · · Score: 3, Informative

    I find that I worry about the work that I have to do, the thoughts bounce around in my head as soon as I get home, and I think about how I am going to do the work. Of course the work never gets done.
    What works for me is being away from the computer, sitting in a room and just starting the job.

    Start no matter what, don't plan it just start. You then find that it isn't as bad as you thought it was. (unless you procrastinated and its 12am with the paper due at 9am) The main thing is to stop analyzing and get to work, don't think you have a problem, few of us really have problems, the rest are just created by people who believe they have them.

  8. I supposedly have ADD on Working with ADHD? · · Score: 1

    Or maybe it's just the excuse my parents wanted to hear for my bad behavior in school. Anyways, I've taken Ritalin and found that the speed effect was too much for me. I couldn't go to sleep, I was constantly aware of my heart beating, I was sweating, and finally I began to abuse it in small amounts (nothing big, just did it once or twice) to stay up late and finish work.

    Whether or not it helped me is arguable, when on Ritalin I felt as if I could concenrate well, but things seemed distant, I felt I was inside myself and the subject I was supposed to be concentrating on.

    The funny thing is I have an incredible ability to concentrate on tests and recieve high marks on them. I think the whole diagnosis of me having ADD is wrong, it is more or less laziness.
