    I agree. I only use alt cursor to go back and forth. My mouse4 and mouse5 also works that way. The only time I needed those graphical buttons is when I need to go 3 pages back at once.

    lol 500px enhanced diddly squat. Just the pure slowness of loading up is enough to turn me off for a photo site. And I don't bother going deeper to check if there's a nice photo organizer, or great fan base groups like flickr.

    A website is just a website. It's the people in it that matters.

    Don't worry bro, I let them do their Rambo, 9 frames a second, noisy disturbance to the bride, groom, and guests. With their super ultra dual battery packs cycling full power on the whole 5000 frames for a 10 hour wedding. Without saying a word. Let the noobs do that. Sooner or later they'd realize holy shit, now I got 20k shots here due in 2 weeks wtf am I gonna do.

    Rambo's don't last. And while they're too busy cycling and keeping the silly eye in the VF, we observe, spot, and snipe. 1 shot 1 kill. (meh ok sometimes 3.. lol). I am also glad I trained in film :)

    Just to be fair, I know a shitload of oversea students who passed the competency tests and can't speak jack English. They're just good at tests. Much like people who passed driving exams, and can't drive well. If I am hiring though, I'd gladly prefer those who do their job well, than a piece of paper saying they can do well.

    Being a Chinese who grew up in Hong Kong and in Canada, I was educated in both countries for 10 - 12 years each and I can clearly see the difference. It's just different and I would choose the Canadian education way over the Chinese. It's not their fault, it's the language. Chinese is based on memorization of the word. There's no spelling. Somehow, I think spelling frees you up to "create" stuff. While memorization forces you to hard code stuff BEFORE you're proficient enough to create stuff with those blocks. The languages indeed made two very different approach to education.

    You should train yourself to fly in your dream. Get on a roller coaster in real life, get a feel of the wind and stuff. In your dreams, instead of going Neo first try, bend your knees and try floating, tell yourself to float. If it works, it'll feel kinda super conductive maglev stuff.. floaty movey. That's my primary way of moving about in my dreams. If it doesn't work and you're SURE it's a dream (to make sure, pull down your pants and notice no one cares?), find a building to jump down from. If you're too chicken, find a flight of stairs to jump down from. You'll notice you survive 20 odd steps with 1 jump. Sometimes, I fly real fast like astroboy, or ironman. It's especially fun when the dream has a purpose, like I am trying to stop this guy from creating another tornado or something.

    My most fantastic dreams are usually flying in disasters, like real life 2012 stuff, and in 3D!! Imagine that.

  20. Re:Pfft. on Video Gamers Have Power Over Their Dreams · · Score: 3, Interesting

    After dreaming for 30 odd years, there're a few things that works every time:

    1. light switch. I am those anal freak and hate having a light on when the room is not in use. So even when I am awake I switch lights a lot. I flip switches when I am dreaming also but in the dreams, a on will make the light flicker, just like in Doom. That's when I know I am dreaming and it's all flying from there. I like to fly.

    2. ghosts and monsters. When I was a kid, these always scares me but now that I am pretty sure there's no ghosts, whenever I see one in a dream I usually try to have sex with "it". Then fly some more.

    3. moving my glasses. I wore glasses since I was 10, and every time I "fixed" (adjust) it on my nose, the view changes a little. You'll know what I mean if you wear one. In the dream, the view doesn't change. In fact, I've had dreams where I had no glasses and still see perfectly clear.

    4. flying. I know I can't fly. I try it in real life some time and I don't take off.

    You should read more lucid tips on the net, it's wickedly fun. Beats Duke Nukem Forever.... wait..
