As for the crosswalks just follow the general rule of "If you go they will stop or at least avoid you." Takes a bit of balls and it is kind of a dick move but hey if your in a hurry and need to get somewhere who cares about that random guy in a car you will never see again.

Learn to use the windows-E windows-D and windows-L hotkey at work or what ever, it will save you great amount of time ! There are more but I find those one especially useful.

If you own a smartphone use a custom alarm clock to wake up. I personally use Alarm clock plus for Android and it let you put your own music and ask you math questions to be able to snooze. Lots of customization possible, it's fucking awesome. I can tell you you won't get back to bed after having to answer some shit like 82-57+29 at 6 in the morning.


That Windows-E trick is awesome. SO much wasted time doing it the other way.

Thanks,

While on that subject.

Middle-click opens a link in a new tab. Surprising amount of folks still don't know this.

You can mark and drag a link in Firefox, drag it to.. wherever and it opens in a new window. Drag it to the 'tab bar' and it opens in a new tab, drag it to the address bar and it'll open in whatever window you're in.

Shift-clicking in Itunes will let you select everything between Song A and Song B. I spent years Ctrl clicking every song in an album if I wanted something changed...

Alt+M Minimizes all windows

Oh and for anyone using dual monitors, download Ignoflash. Let's you watch full screen flash on one monitor while doing whatever on the other. Without it (as you will have noticed) you can't even click without flash deciding that full screen shouldn't be used. Works with Firefox and Opera, been a bit 'eh' with Chrome for me though.

I'm gonna have to try this, I always wish I could full screen a movie on my TV while playing sc2. I can do it (now fullscreen ty) but I can only select 1 sound output. I've always wanted to try to emulate another PC on my tv since I have this setup but the only solution I can think of is VmWare.

When you take a shower, bring your clothes with you, and hang them in the order that you put them on. For me its socks boxers shirt sweater jeans/pants sometimes suit.

do this while showering for extra time conservation

water waster though.

As a zerg player I pride myself on multitasking. When I am pissing I can singlehandedly open the toilet paper dispensor with my left hand (it's on the right) put the tube into the roll of paper and replace it before I am done pissing.

how does pissing while in the shower waste water. if anything u save water from flushing
actually who cares, this thread is fucking epic. 30 mins in still on second page

Enjoy

SOS Morse code on cross walks is what the paramedics use to stretcher someone across the street. Next time you need to cross, press 3 short presses on the button, 3 long presses, and 3 short presses again to change the light so you can cross the street. Do it at a rather quick pace to get it to work.

Also: litemind.com - mind hacks
Marcandangel.com - life/mind/productivity hacks
Lifehacker.com - tech and technical application
hackaday.com - hardcore tech hacking

Wow can I get the source or can anyone confirm the SOS morse code on cross walks? That sounds awesome cause I have to cross multiple crosswalks into campus and it takes forever.


I can confirm that most cross walk buttons in big cities are placebos. I don't know if this applies to the SOS trick, but most of the buttons are disabled and it takes exactly the same amount of time for the light to cycle when you press the button as when it is not pressed.

Its much more likely that these buttons work in smaller towns and whatnot. In big cities they decided it was better to not fuck up the entire traffic pattern for the convenience of pedestrians.

Wow, what a great idea, haha. I've missed more lectures than I'd like to admit because it's way too easy to snooze. Thanks for the tip!

Also, can anyone confirm the crosswalk button hack?

Don't fuck around practicing guitar for 10 years without taking lessons. Your skill level grows exponentially with a teacher, at a fucking slowass speed without one.

I can't agree with this one. You just have to know what the fark you are doing. I play the piano and cello already(and a few random percussion instruments), took lessons for them and have a pretty good grasp on music theory. So when I decided to pick up the guitar for fun, it was almost elementary. After taking lessons on two different instruments, and hence getting the feel of what you should and should not do as a beginner, and plus having the absolute wealth of knowledge that the internet has on guitars, you can do pretty well teaching yourself.
For the lesser known(and harder) instruments, such as oboe.....tuba.......bassoon....harp... crap like that, you definitely need a teacher though. The guitar is just so common that as long as you know how to practice, you can do pretty well.

If you want to live in a foreign country, get a job as a "native english speaker". Anyone in America, UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand can get a decent easy job in just about any non English speaking country. I don't understand how these countries have so many unemployed...


Wrong..I've lived in Germany for over a year now and it took me a long time to find a job. Just because you speak English doesn't mean shit.

Maybe western and northern Europe are bad choices for this. There are plenty of people who speak English already.

When you're choreographing dance, use in-ear headphones and snake the wire through the inside of your shirt and behind your back. This is so you don't yank off your earphones by accident while dancing, and the behind-the-back thing helps because gravity & friction keeps yanking the earphones out if you just snake it up the front.

Then again, I don't know how many TLers actually dance & choreo, so... lol

a more useful one:

if you're in a cafeteria or somewhere where a SERVER gives you a certain amount of food, talk and be very very very nice to the server. It doesn't work that great with guys, but for women servers, if you're nice they'll just give you WAY more food. Fact of life. Be nice to girls.

last one:

If you're ever sick or late for a meeting or something along those lines, have a FRIEND call in and apologize profusely for you. Psychologically speaking, they definitely can't get angry at your friend, because it isn't their fault, and because they're talking nicer, they'll naturally be more lenient and sympathetic and believing of your plight. You might ask, who would be so nice to be that friend, but then again you can do the exact same for him/her... so make some friends.
The probability of Kim Carrier getting all those predictions wrong is similar to the probability Flash loses a TvT. Kim Carrier MUST BE a genius. His only big mistake... STORK.
