Hope the admins/mods get their edit/delete/ban keys binded to something convenient ;). ----------------------------------- Martin Fri Dec 16, 2005 1:55 am ----------------------------------- Always. ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Dec 16, 2005 11:08 am ----------------------------------- "]Hope the admins/mods get their edit/delete/ban keys binded to something convenient ;). I have ban binded to my right-click :twisted: ----------------------------------- Boo-chan Fri Dec 16, 2005 11:13 am ----------------------------------- I have ban binded to my right-click :twisted: Maybe Macs aren't so bad after all :roll: ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Dec 16, 2005 11:56 am ----------------------------------- Maybe Macs aren't so bad after all I'm quoting you on this. The amazingly well thought of OSX's UI doesn't hide any options from the user behind endless layers of right-clicks through the menues. This frees up an extra button for me to take advantage of. I've actually linked it to [url=http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/expose/]Exposé :D ----------------------------------- codemage Fri Dec 16, 2005 1:04 pm ----------------------------------- binded bound? ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Dec 16, 2005 1:55 pm ----------------------------------- yes. I'm shocked that Boo-chan didn't catch that ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Fri Dec 16, 2005 4:00 pm ----------------------------------- Well, I was thinking about it, and although bound did seem more appropriate/proper, I chose binded to emphasize the 'bind' although I wasn't sure either way... Seem like two completely different words to me, but that's just me. *edit* I find this an appropriate time to say that I make my posts as legible as possible, but most of the time I just write what comes to mind. This is why I sometimes write run on sentences and other grammatical blasphemies :). ----------------------------------- brenn Fri Dec 16, 2005 7:46 pm ----------------------------------- "] This is why I sometimes write run on sentences and other grammatical blasphemies :). ...........ROFL Kind of relatedly, my father and I were discussing grammar over dinner today XD Apparently the writing ability of my roomates are below par for university students XD He refused to say anything about my English skills, though.... ----------------------------------- Boo-chan Fri Dec 16, 2005 8:04 pm ----------------------------------- Actually in this case I'm not sure which one is more accurate, although I think binded is. However, I try to only correct others when I'm pretty sure that I am actually correct... I also don't seem to be able to edit other people's posts for some reason :cry: ----------------------------------- Martin Fri Dec 16, 2005 11:17 pm ----------------------------------- I smashed my mighty mouse and bought a real mouse. Satisfying, that. ----------------------------------- md Sat Dec 17, 2005 1:33 am ----------------------------------- Why does boo-chan have 18 posts? (binded seems wrong; bound is almost certainly correct) ----------------------------------- wtd Sat Dec 17, 2005 1:48 am ----------------------------------- I smashed my mighty mouse and bought a real mouse. Satisfying, that. Might it not have been worthwhile to keep it if for no other reason that having an "emergency" mouse in the event that the one you replaced it with turned out to be a lemon? ----------------------------------- Martin Sat Dec 17, 2005 3:02 am ----------------------------------- Too late for that. ;) Fortunately, I live like 2 minutes away from a Futureshop like store. ----------------------------------- 1of42 Sat Dec 17, 2005 3:42 pm ----------------------------------- I smashed my mighty mouse and bought a real mouse. Satisfying, that. Might it not have been worthwhile to keep it if for no other reason that having an "emergency" mouse in the event that the one you replaced it with turned out to be a lemon? A lemon normal mouse would be better than a mint-condition "mighty mouse". Mighty mouse is the corniest name for a product ever, btw. ----------------------------------- Martin Sat Dec 17, 2005 10:09 pm ----------------------------------- I'd prefer a broken touchpad over a mighty mouse. I can't get over how terrible a product it is. ----------------------------------- wtd Sat Dec 17, 2005 10:42 pm ----------------------------------- I had a chance to use one the other day. I was impressed. ----------------------------------- Martin Sat Dec 17, 2005 10:47 pm ----------------------------------- In one button mode, or two button mode? ----------------------------------- wtd Sat Dec 17, 2005 11:20 pm ----------------------------------- Two button mode. I've always liked the ergonomics of Apple's mice, since they encourage and reward people who use their fingertips, rather than wrapping their whole hand around the thing. ----------------------------------- Martin Sun Dec 18, 2005 7:36 am ----------------------------------- It wasn't that. It was the not being able to left/right click if your right/left finger is on the mouse. ----------------------------------- wtd Sun Dec 18, 2005 3:36 pm ----------------------------------- Yes. That's easier to deal with if your a fingertip mouser. :) ----------------------------------- Martin Sun Dec 18, 2005 6:59 pm ----------------------------------- Fair enough ;) ----------------------------------- Albrecd Mon Dec 19, 2005 10:33 am ----------------------------------- Why does Boo-chan only have 18 posts? ----------------------------------- Tony Mon Dec 19, 2005 10:38 am ----------------------------------- Because posts in [GD] and [OT] don't count. Search for all of his posts for a more accurate level of activity. ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Mon Dec 19, 2005 3:46 pm ----------------------------------- I thought posts in General Discussion counted toward post count, but just didn't give you bits? Dang it, I can never keep track of all these things :lol: ----------------------------------- Martin Mon Dec 19, 2005 7:14 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, the post count thing is strange. I have 3112 posts total (although some are in admin forums, so they won't show in a post search). 3113 now. ----------------------------------- Amailer Tue Dec 20, 2005 7:34 pm ----------------------------------- What the hell is up with this topic? It always comes up as UNREAD... -.- AHH ITS Still happpningngin ----------------------------------- Martin Tue Dec 20, 2005 7:58 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, compsci has issues. ----------------------------------- brenn Tue Dec 20, 2005 8:12 pm ----------------------------------- ._. but GD and OT are the ONLY places where I post >_> ----------------------------------- md Tue Dec 20, 2005 11:00 pm ----------------------------------- Perhaps you should start spamming noobs with their "How long will this take" and "I need help" and "turing sucks" topics ;) ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Dec 21, 2005 10:36 am ----------------------------------- ._. but GD and OT are the ONLY places where I post >_> Other than that 66 on your counter. You could always start writing tutorials for Java!
