Today [12]

Jeez, I haven't been stalking you people on SF for, what? A year?

God, it's good to be back. I'm going through my old posts and thread subscriptions and I still have that awesome fuzzy feeling inside whenever someone said "thanks for helping"

Made me remember why I stuck around for so long in the first place.

Has it been that long? Seems like only yesterday, Marko.
Good to have you back.

Thanks, Bill. You, too, Nommy (LOVE the name xD) You too, Lee

I've actually tried getting into this sort of thing again, but also remembered why I (kind of) left... So yeah, I think I might pop in regularly again, if nothing else than to discuss news and games and stuff

Just don't bash me for forgetting a lot of your guys' names xD

Sorry for my absence for the past day or so folks, it seems that I'm struck with a bad case of migraine combined with the flu
Even looking at my screen nearly makes my head explode..

Take rest Nommy. Get well soon.

 

[mitchell65]

You should NOT be looking at this Nommy. Darkened room, quiet a possible. Medication if you can take it. The nausea is dreadful and I daresay you look a terrible color. When iit eases take it nice and slow!
All best wishes to you!

Hey guys, I wanna share you something today. It's about if you accidentally close a tab (only for Chrome and FF), you would just do is "Ctrl+Shift+T", it will automatically restore the closed tab.

right clicking any tab in firefox and selecting "undo close tab " also restores closed tabs, you can do it for loads of tabs also, not just the last closed.

A good Windows 7 day!

The new IE 11 preview - doesn't break Windows 7 Gadgets! 1 WIN!
The new Nvidia drivers work just like the old ones - very well! 2 WINS!

And now for the slammer..
Google has updated the backend for Youtube, and after almost a year, I've got accelerated video decoding in my browsers, even in the old Opera Next x64! And accelerated video rendering in fullscreen! 3# MAJOR WIN!

Get well soon Stefan!

Hope you feel better soon Stefan, migraines are horrible, hard to explain to someone who has never had one. A Guy

for less bright browsing...

use the sf dark theme.

use firefox with a dark custom skin, this one...
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ft-deepdark/?src=userprofile

install the stylish add on for firefox and use this style for google.

GT DeepDark theme for Google - Themes and Skins for Google - userstyles.org

firefox and google will then match, the sf dark forum skin fits nicely into the firefox theme too.

ideal for night time browsing on the forum

also knock the brightness down a couple of steps on the computer,

or even use f.lux as well

f.lux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

download...

f.lux: software to make your life better

I don't have any migraines but I do like the sf dark theme and the deepdark theme for google. Hope you don't mind if I use 'em too, Jules. And a belated happy talk like a pirate day to ya!

 

[boohbah]

'aaaapppy Pirate bay to you too
that talk is everyday talk 'ere in corrnnnwallllll me hearty

Thanks all, I'm feeling slightly better today ..At least good enough to finally eat something and do something other than sleep for 23 hours a day.

Also thanks Julian for the theme's! GT DeepDark and the custom Google style fits really nice with my Windows Theme (borderless Placebo Angst from this theme). For SF theme I'm using Blue Stripe Wide, which basically is a black top bar and the rest blue and white, so it also looks real nice with that

Today I am posting this morning because my work truck would not start. Click, click, click like a dead battery. Went and got my car and jumper cables, tried for about 15 mins to get it started. No go. Put car away, went back to work truck, got out my multimeter, battery has 12+ volts. Hmmm, could still be bad, but why didn't the jump work?

Get tow truck to tow me to local Wheel Works where I get most work done. They find a dead battery, has volts, but no amps. Changed it and back in business. Too late for my 1st 3 calls, so I'm off to start with #4. Fun monday...NOT!
