In Brazil we use QWERTY, but while some oldschool geeks (like me) prefer US_Intl keyboars, mainstream seems to prefer the ABNT2 keyboards - basically, it adds a Ç key where your '/ key was supposed to be, and remaps almost all the symbols. It's awful. Details here http://www.macromedia.com/support/fontographer/ts/ documents/latin/BRZ1.gif http://www.macromedia.co m/support/fontographer/ts/ documents/latin/BRZ2.gif
The sad thing is that's becoming very difficult to find us_intl keyboards around here. And I'd prefer typing on a german eszet-enhanced keyboard than on an ABNT2.
Yep, this is him. Ele disse que te conhece "de nome". Ou seja, nao conhece.:P
I worked with Silvio at TIMaster, nice guy, he introduced me to Echo and the Bunnymen:))) I'm usually away while at work, but there are always exceptions.;) Do you have ICQ/MSN/Jabber/Whatever?
My BF is Fabio FZer0, he knows you "from internet".:) I met Hiro at the Centroin BBS, a long long time ago, and you also probably know all these Math related people from UFRJ, like dbb, zed, silvio reis... I absolutely love Enrique, he's been my boss since november and it's wonderful to work with him!!! Hmm... do you also know Gabriel Blum? He's also frined of these UFRJ people, and works with me.
There's nothing cooler on the world than being front cover of Wired magazine, specially when it's for being co-author of the best browser around. That makes him hot enough for me. Yummy.
I'm the first Renata Rocha at orkut search, the one looking back on the photo:) You also know Hiro (but everyone knows Hiro) and my boss, Enrique. And my boyfriend knows you, although he left orkut a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. We all live in a Gzip World!
You certainly checked out Weather Channel, they usually compute the average - so if you had 45 in Bangu and 20 on alto da Boa Vista, you'll have max 32:P
According to Climatempo, tomorrow max will be (scary) 38C.
33C Are you kidding? I'm pretty sure we've reached 40 last week. And the air conditioned just almost blew up and we worked a few days melting. And, as it can always get worse, I hade an IBM Netfinity server from XIX century to fix with Win2003. I can't just believe tomorrow can be worst.
I need more RAM, but don't have enough money to buy it. I am currently with a 256Mb system, isn't that awful? Help a little red-haired brazilian girl to get a better computer: donate your RAM:)
1. they are talking about 'users', not 'hits'. 2. the ms popup killer lacks of configuration options and I dont see people effectively using it, as it also blocks popups you click to open. 3. IE is not safer as MS does not patch it's software as quick as it would be necessary 4. Another point on using firefox is the tab thing. 5. Firefox is not a better IE, not IE is a worst firefox. Please. 6. MS does not seem to want to completely rewrite it's browser. 8. An at least blinking icon to announce new updates would certainly be better, for sure. 9. It would be great if firefox market share increases drastically, but... I already use firefox and have pity on IE users, I KNOW they will have problems. At work we have currently two boxes running firefox only X eight boxes running IE only. The only machines without any spyware were those using firefox. So... poor IE users, they will pay for their sins;)
I've been a Mathematics student at college for two years but abandoned it due to bad teachers. I always loved math, but the college teachers were the worst I've ever had. Besides, I found a horrible course structure (almost no Geometry - my greatest passion - only tons of Algebra & Calculus) and teachers whose greatest objective in life was to make students fail in their lecture.
Math is not hard, but the teachers need to learn teaching before they teach it.
Alzheimer incidence by age increases from 2% at 65 to 25% at 85 - after 85, incidence decreases due to deaths caused by the disease. Symptoms include progressive and chronic memory loss, behavorial changes, confusion, and disorientation. So, I believe Anthony Flew should visit a neurologist.
Absolutely fantastic. I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and our governor has forced state schools to teach creationism as an "alternative" to evolution. She'd love this site. Therefore, I need to observe that man are stronger and taller than women, wich would make them more suitable for housekeeping activities like supermarket shopping and window washing, as well as carrying babies for their wives.:P
If Pat doesn't want to be misheared as an hypocondriac self-diagnosing freak looking for some idiot doctor who agrees with his Googled diagnostic, he should stop acting like those. Flamebait me if you want, but I think his behavior towards the doctors is completely wrong, even if he is completely right.
He should not say "Hey, I think I have symptoms of disease X, that should be treated with medicine Y but bad doctors don't believe me", but "Hi, I have the symptoms X Y Z, had done the exams K W Q and got the results L Z W. Doctors thought I had illness I and treated me with T, but the symptoms X an Z have persisted. MEanwhile, I searched about my symptoms and found the following articles to N diseases (believe, there's ALWAYS more than one strange disease that can be related to any symptoms you may have) that may present some of these, but I need a doctor to find what I do REALLY have, as Google is not known to be a doctor, can you help me?". It makes a BIG difference for the one who listen.
And, the obvious advice: take some vacation and/or look for a cognitive psychologist during the treatment, as stress ALWAYS make things look worse than they are and is the best friend of psychossomatics diseases. And no, you don't need to be crazy/retarded to need psychological support or to develop psyschossomatic problems - you just need to be stressed.

I work at a MS-Friendly company (I'd say Microsoft is one of our major customers) and as they gave me Administrator permissions to my machine, I did not even ask if I could install Firefox - I simply got it installed. Once the sysadmin saw and told me I should not use non-IE browsers. I answered him that as a web developer, it was my job to test everything in the most popular browsers and that IE now has less than 90% of market. He didn't knew that and while he was trying to answer something-too-complex-for-a-non-mcse, I asked if he saw the Wired edition where the CSO of Microsoft says he uses Firefox. Obviously the mcse got a BSOD and never bothered me again.
Or, in fewer words: read slashdot and any tech news sites befere your mcse and tell them things they didn't know - they get totally b0rked if someone knows something they don't know.:D
Sadly, most of the law proposals in Brazil have nothing to do with our real problems. There's a proposal to create a "de-homossexualitizer institution" to "help those who want to leave homosexuality" and such...
I believe it's a "alternative to worldwide media beauty" erotic site. Many girls there are exhibitionists who do the pictures for their own pleasure - and, wow, can earn some bucks also! - and the site members are men and women who like this alternative-beauty fetish. There's a bunch of sites like Suicide Girls around, like Nakkid Nerds and RaverPorn/EroticBPM. Also, it looks like geek guys tend to like these alternative beauties rather than the default ones. And, as a geek-non-default-girl who likes geek guys, I've never had any problems to find men who like me - and, no, I'm not goth, although I always wear black and have my hair dyed in bright red and do like some goth rock and... wait, this topic was supposed to be about Nintendo... Well, so, my IMHO, Nintendo is crazy and I'll not buy a Gamecube anymore.:P

Sorry, I'm Brazilian, broadband prices here start at R$100 (that's about U$35)
Computer: $2000
Broadband Internet: $100
Being fooled by a hoax at Slashdot's main page: priceless
...does it run a Flying Computers screensaver or have embedded wings?

I live in Brazil. I could call "Disque Denuncia", an anonymous crime report service that seems to really work. :)
But I could not find any Brazilian cam.... Looks like webcam + broadband is not a very common thing here.
