Using Auto Correct to Your Advantage

If you're like me and in school, or even typing for a blog like this one, then you know how tiring it can be to type an entire blog post and check it for grammatical errors. I will admit I make errors in grammar more than I would like to, but there are just some things that I don't catch, or don't look for just being lazy. What we take for granted though is the fact that we have computers to type on. We have the power of technology to check our writing for us. Now, while no modern program is… Continue

What is a good HD web cam that is windows 7 compatible, among other requirements...

Good evening good people of the forum,



Recently I have been searching for a decent HD web camera, and believed I had found it - the Logitech Webcam Pro 9000. However, to my dismay, many of the reviews on this product note the incompatibility issues with windows 7. So I am hoping someone out there reading this post could help me find the "dream" webcam that I have been seeking. Below I have listed the requirements:



(I am aware that there may not exist a camera that can fulfill… Continue

Wow, it's been a long time since I posted!

So... to catch up.... I've not lost any more, but the good news is, I've also not gained any more!!! For that I'm thankful. I probably could have lost but frankly life took over, as usual, and I simply fell off that wagon. Will I get there again soon? I'm not really sure. Again, life takes it's own turns.



I am however, building a new home. The dirt is turning into a hole in the ground today!!! I'm so excited. I'm slated to move in by Thanksgiving!



More to follow.... assuming… Continue

Life and Purpose

For a few days now, I've been trying to figure out the meaning of purpose and the purpose of life. I came pretty close to a final answer after a close call on my motorbike. More personally, what might my own purpose be?


Then I realised I didn't have a purpose, nor did I need the burden of trying to find one. I'm just like everyone else. Completely unique.


Have you discovered your purpose yet?




EDIT…

It's official: China's next supercomputer, the petascale Dawning 6000, will be constructed exclusively with home-grown microprocessors. Weiwu Hu, chief architect of the Loongson (also known as "Godson") family of CPUs at the Institute of Computing Technology (ICT), a division of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, also confirms that the supercomputer will run Linux. This is a sharp departure from China's last supercomputer, the Dawning 5000a, which debuted at number 11 on the list of the…
