General Discussion / Re: Recent headaches...

« on: July 05, 2011, 07:20:33 pm »

• They frequently seemed to happen when I took caffeine pills. Lately I've deduced that to just being related to caffeine. It's not 100% accurate/consistent but generally when I have caffeine my head throbs like all hell some hours later after (I presume) the caffeine wears off. I used to get headaches from not drinking caffeine in high school but drinking caffeine-infused products tended to solve that. It doesn't work anymore.
• They happen randomly and unpredictably for the most part. There was a solid period of my life when I didn't get them. Then I took a caffeine pill when I had a ton of stuff to accomplish and BAM! headache! I got one in the middle of my E&M final this quarter and, unable
  

Just thought i'd share that, (in a short story), that I've had hearing problems my whole life, to the point where I can wake up one day and have almost no hearing, wake up the next day and have it again (although usually it's more like a few months later when my hearing goes back to norm.)..anyway, this is related because I recently went to a doctor in Boston, MA that informed me that caffeine can actually cause migraines quite easy..and I found that when I drank caffeine, instead of the "usual" migraine with what you described (loud volume, bright lights) I just get prolonged  hearing loss + tinnitus + extreme headaches.. try staying completely away from anything caffeine..even chocolate and see how you feel. I personally can't even drink a coke without feeling like complete shit after.. It seems though as I just recently developed this "allergy" to caffeine.

Anyway, best of luck figuring it all out.

What applications do you guys use to recover data that you lost on a hard drive or pen drive?

Hahaha, I had to bring this up since I was skimming some old articles and saw Mr. Bowels.

The list, which has been shared as a downloadable file, contains the URL of every searchable Facebook user's profile, their name and unique ID. Mr Bowles said he published the data to highlight privacy issues, but Facebook said it was already public information.

Unix / Linux Discussion / Re: KWin Crashes on startup.

The error is in libGL, which makes me think graphics drivers.

I'd recommend going to the Ubuntu forums. I hear they're normally helpful.

Okay, thank you.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, everytime I boot up Kwin immediately crashes and I have to use Metacity which I hate..haha. I would definitely consider myself a noob when it comes to linux.. so detail would be nice
..here is a crash report:

Code: [Select]

General Programming / Re: Texts From Last Night Clone

« on: December 16, 2009, 07:20:44 pm »

I want to make a website that is pretty much identical in function to Texts from Last Night. (Users can submit for review, post comments, etc.) I know there are tutorials and software packages out that mirror twitter functionality, and I think it might be easier to extend upon one of those. Any suggestions or run down of what this type of site is actually going to entail? Or anybody interested in working on it?

I may be interested in it, if you could just fill me in on why you would want to make a site pretty much identical to Texts from Last Night?

General Discussion / Re: interesting new concepts for a video game media site?

« on: June 02, 2009, 11:23:51 am »

imo, just stay away with mass media on the website, sites for games like silkroad uses way to many flash objects, the whole site is basically flash and javascript as well as hundreds of images it just takes entirely too long to get any information what-so-ever. Coincidently, I just tried going to silkroad's website and apparently their site isn't fit to be viewed with linux...

how different can a sequel be?

Oh, the hilarity in this.

He must not be subject to American cinema.

It wouldn't be a sequel if the base concept wasn't there, which I just played it last night and the basic concept is still there.

TFC is a very different game than TF2. 

It runs fine in Wine.
