Japanese. I'd guess the same will be true for Chinese characters. Ask.com has a long, long way to go. Previews are a gimmick. I can't see the text on the website. And it sucks unnecessary bandwidth while not everything has a preview.

Preventing RSI?
·
· Score: 2, Informative
I have RSI and I can say definitively that when typing your palms, especially near your wrists, should not be touching anything. Your blood vessels and nerves are especially close to the skin in that area and if they are compressed for an extended period of time RSI will develop due to lack of proper blood flow.
The parent poster is absolutely correct. A chair with good arm rests (I have one with gliding armrests) will support your arms, wrists, and hands in the correct position. Blood vessels/nerves are not as close to the surface in your arms.
Bottom line: there is no need for palm rests. Used improperly, palm rests will do more harm than good--they should only be used if you're not typing/mousing.
Best keyboard is the no-longer-manufacturered IBM Options SelectEase, IMO. Keyboard is physically split far enough your wrists do not angle outwards when your fingers are on the home keys. This separation allows me to put a trackball in-between, enabling left- or right-handed use. I can no longer use mice without my hands hurting after 30 min.
"Only in Texas." That bozo should install cameras in his home and broadcast it to the web. Hey if he's not doing anything wrong, why worry? What a moron.
This is technically a memory leak. But on all OS I've programmed in, exit from main would return all memory that process used back to the main pool. If main were a regular function instead it would be a leak.
I find that if I set browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers to 2 it uses less memory if it's left at the default (I have 1GB RAM). If I use Fasterfox's Clear Cache function, it compacts the memory usage even more. There is still some leakage but not as bad as the default -1.
The only way we are going to attract the truly huge amounts of capital needed to build out these networks is to strike down governmental entry barriers and allow providers to realize profits
I find it interesting that SBC just lowered their 3Mbps/512Kbps price to $17.99 or some price like that. But that is pathetic compared to what others in the world can get today.
Mice allows you to interact with the desktop metaphor via your index finger. Trackballs do not permit this metaphor. But with that said, I can only use a trackball due to RSI and I swear by one inbetween (can use either hand) an IBM SelectEase.
It appears that bmw.de will not get relisted until they request it and explain to Google's satisfaction they won't do this again in the future.
I am curious how the current links written about bmw.de will affect its rank. Maybe Google will will have bmw start afresh from the day they are relisted and ignore all pages with bmw.de prior to that date. Ooh, that would hurt.
Bill Gates was criticized by the types of donations he used to give (in the form of Microsoft licenses, products, etc.). But I think he has learned from that mistake and his charitable givings now do not force their recepients to use Microsoft products.
What about this synthetic hornet drink? Saw this on a National Geographic special on giant hornets in Japan - Hornets from Hell. The substance is produced in giant hornet larvae saliva for the adult females so they can gather food. Adult giant hornets (and maybe hornets in general, I don't know) don't eat solid protein because they cannot digest it--they only eat VAAM. http://www.vaam-power.com/
Regular influenza has the potential to kill individuals whose immune system is weak. Avian influenza kills individuals with strong, healthy immune systems. Big difference. People who say "I have a strong immune system, Avian Flu won't affect me" are clueless. In fact, if an outbreak occurs, they'll be the first ones to go.
I believe most Windows notebooks come with the unpowered 4-port 1394 port while all Macintoshes come with the powered 6-port version. Easier to connect those small FW hard drives that don't have power cords.
I had 20/10-20/20 for a long time but after using a computer with a 19" CRT at work where it was closer to my left eye and sitting at an angle, I gradually developed 20/100-20/200 on my left eye vs my right eye's 20/20.
My doctor said that this is actually a blessing in disguise because I can see close objects with much more clarity using my left eye compared to my right one. As my vision in my right eye ages and I cannot see close objects without reading glasses, I'll be able to do that with my left. Far-away objects are taken care of with my right. In essence, I won't need glasses for a while.
You can prevent your LDs from being unplayable by purchasing a industrial quality LD player from Pioneer. I got an LD V4400 w/ AC3 mod around 10 years ago along with my Pioneer DVL-909 (moded to be a DVL-90). I don't use them very often nowadays but they still work fine. Treated properly, industrial Pioneer LD players will last for many years.
Unfortunately, you cannot manipulate the data using standard Windows tools as though it were written as a set of files under NTFS. For instance, it would be really nice if I could search for all registry entries that was created/modified since I installed program X. The metadata exists, but is not exposed by regedit. And if something corrupts an entry in the file system, I think the chance of the entire hive becoming inaccessible is less than if the registry is in 1 file. Maybe I trust NTFS more than the registry "file system." Or are they done using same underlying calls?
Under XP, you need to be an administrator or you won't be able to edit a graphics file with Paint, the default program launched when you double click a JPEG, GIF file. Something having to do with the requirement of writable registry settings that non-admin users don't have access to.

Oops, I meant the LD V8000. This machine displays produces freeze fields of a CLV disc to produce a image like that of a CAV disc.

Because Microsoft says "Note This function is provided only for compatibility with 16-bit Windows-based applications. Applications should store initialization information in the registry."

That's what happens under my dad's system running XP SP2. Take it or leave it.
