baldie I don't want to do this but I just have to. Dude do you really think that Tool, Deftones and A Perfect Circle are non-mainstream? They aren't even metal (well Tool can be called progressive metal)! Still they are nice bands and Tool is just awesome! Of course...

I have often gone upto 5AM in the morning studying for an exam which starts at 9:30 AM. I sleep for 2 hours and then go to give the exam. What about you? What's your personal best when it comes to studying through the night?

baldie for most people especially casual users Linux is hardly worth the trouble. Missing drivers, lack of software, lack of instructions to install available software. Seriously anyone who is wary of going too deep into a computer should stay as far away as possible...

baldie does this happen every time you connect? It could be that your ISP itself isn't very reliable. I had this problem with an old ISP where connections would go out every few hours or so. I changed my ISP and I haven't had a problem for over two years.

baldie this is probably a problem with your DNS server not responding. When it doesn't, the URLs you enter aren't resolved into IP addresses. This happens especially during high traffic periods. Nothing you can do except keep trying until it does respond. Or switch...

pc grounding

baldie Well, every power outlet in our house is grounded so not grounding my PC or any other electrical appliance for that matter is not an issue. I plug it in and it is grounded. Simple as that.

baldie Subtitles are a very good way of following a movie. Many times especially in action movies, certain dialogs are mumbled or shouted faintly that I can't even hear them let alone understand them. Subtitles help there. Also in comedies where catching each bit of...

I like to shop alone sometimes. It's faster than having someone else with you who wants to look at different things than you like to look at. I like having my boyfriend with me shopping though because he can tell me if he likes a...

baldie I don't like shopping at all. Shopping for clothes that is. I prefer to wear what I have till it literally drops off my back! I go shopping for clothes perhaps twice a year and even then I just spend a few minutes picking up whatever I see first!

Given the chance to choose would you rather be known all over the world or would you rather earn a lot. Which is more fulfilling? Or do they simply co-exist?

I'm sure all of you are familiar with picture books: books that use illustrations, often in chronological order, to tell a story. Picture books don't have any text. Now, my question is, do you think that you're able to "read"...

baldie I just never pick up a call I don't want to receive and then later I excuse myself by saying I didn't realise the phone was ringing. This way is much better than faking reception because the person at the other end will hear your voice clearly and can guess...

baldie Two books which for me are as good as books will ever be. The Lord of the Rings which is a timeless story and one I'll never get tired off, and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams. It has to be the funniest book ever published!
