Guys, dreamwidth has defeated me.  I'm stil around, check in on peep's posts periodically, but whenever I decide to do a catch up post - which tend to cover several topics and there therefore long and require a cut, I just cannot make the cut work - even by copying and pasting the code for the last cut that DID work.  I just dunno what setting I've ( Read more... )

I seriously hate this, fwiw. Stupid mind with its avoidance issues.

Oh, hey, still not studying, have a link to a random post about the feeding habits of Komodo dragons I found through the metaquotes comm.

Now I am going to go make a cup of tea, and very shortly after that will start working on my assignment. Any minute now.

I had to make a really big flowchart and it would only fit by moving the margins, and then when I copied and pasted it into an existing document the left side of the flowchart falls off the page.

Adjusting the margins for selected text only doesn’t seem to help. *cries*

Help, please?

Got lent a USB drive where you plug it in, hold down a key and then turn your computer on and it NUKES your hard drive.

Problem is I don't know what key to hold down and I am google FAILING.

I've tried shift, escape, that weird windows key, delete and tab.

Anyone? Bueller?

I was falling asleep studying so I wandered out the front to collect the advertising material that had collected in the mailbox and spent a few minutes in the fresh air pulling out weeds and then I came inside and thought, hmm fresh air good, why don't I leave the front door open for a while ( Read more... )

I have much hate for Word - specifically flowcharts.

My boss has given me a flowchart and I have to add stuff to the side and at the end. How can I make the freakin box widen it's margins???

Edit Well, that was embarrassingly easy. All I had to do was click outside the 'canvas'.

Good news. I got my acceptance letter to Murdoch. So, um, yay ( Read more... )

The lovely mynxii scored tickets to WASO's 'Poem of Ecstasy' and as it's been over ten years since I've tried to appreciate the symphony I tagged along.

For a review of the performance from someone who got it, check out mynxii's post. I was having a hard time staying awake by the end.

(FYI, I also fail at ballet, unless it's Baryshnikov but I love opera. So ( Read more... )

Ever thought about an Enigma/Fatboy Slim remix?

Why not?

Clearly, it takes an idiot a level of genius that only a few can aspire to.

Either that, or some doofus attempting to record Enigma over a Fatboy Slim tape that's been sitting in the car for a couple of years.

It's weirdly compelling.
