opera

ok, you see i havent tried many browsers
i think i can list them right now...
iexplore, netscape, mozilla, opera, konqueror, galeon, epiphany,...all those linux browsers
i havent tried them in depth, but i think i have a good eye for what is truly good
i dont know since when i used opera, but i thought it was very good
and i am still using it now
to explain to internet explorer users why opera is so good is hard, because they simply dont know what they are missing...
anyway i was reading searchlores.org and guess what he recommends opera!!!

one of the main reasons i use opera is because it is the best for research...
for multimedia, i.e. flash, java..., i use firefox...

the goodness of spam

i have made an amazing discovery!!!
...that there is goodness in spam
(note that his only applies to spam from your friends or their friends' friends or their friends' friends' friends...)
ok you see, some of your friends are very crazy, they send mass email...
so if you check who they send to...
you have a wealth of msn contacts!!! (does yahoo chat use email address as contact?)
hahaha
so spam is good after all!!!
ah life is great
you only have to find the good in the bad...

dual monitor

haha
check out my dual monitor configuration...

erm... disregard the mess

ut lags on my laptop...

...yet as you can see on the topleft of this screenshot that at full settings, the framerate is healthy?
it pauses when moving to different parts of tokara_forest(large map)
while in serpentine there are no pauses at all
so i think the answer is the 64mb vram of the x700

(so far only tokara_forest lag)
