Reply to Sad News!! Paul Walker from Fast and Furious. Dies! in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

Yeah, from all accounts he was a decent guy who did a lot for charity. He died while taking a 5 minute break from his charity event in support of victims of Typhoon Haiyan. So yeah, let's all rag on him for not being Daniel Day-Lewis... [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e] I'd rather people be judged on how they treat their fellow humans than how good they are at their job. By that measure, it sounds like he comes out being a better person than most of us.

Reply to Curiosity, writing some letters backwards? in Everything Else Elemental Forums

Children, when learning to write, often write letters (and sometimes even words) backwards. It just seems to be a natural part of our nervous system learning the movements for the first time. I guess an adult writing with their non-dominant hand experiences the same thing. I'm a lefty though, and writing with my right hand is so hopeless I can't even form letters, backwards or not. :D

Reply to Melbourne Is The Most Liveable City Again... in Everything Else Elemental Forums

Yeah, as always, it's a subjective thing. Plenty of people don't like big cities, so the claim that even a place like Melbourne is more livable than, say, a smaller town with a lower cost of living, less impersonality (is that a word?), and a more immediate natural setting is a little laughable to them. Personally, though, I like cities... anyone want to hire me in Melbourne? :)

[quote who="smeagolheart" reply="31" id="3392615"] How can designers think such an an ugly UI in (nearly) 2014 is good enough?[/quote] I'd be willing to bet that it sells well enough to make the team of two people behind it quite happy. So I'd say the designers were correct in thinking that the UI is good enough.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="66" id="3390955"]I've yet to meet a rich person whose motivation in life was material wealth. Wealth tends to be a byproduct of doing something else. I never set out to be rich. I just wanted to make really cool stuff. It's not about wanting stuff. It's about wanting to DO stuff.[/quote] I guess you haven't met many people in finance. I have, and most of them despise their jobs. They're doing it because they

Reply to Hey guys looking for a camera and need some advice in Life, the Universe and Everything Elemental Forums

Awesome, congrats! A couple comments: 30 times zoom is fantastic, and more than you'd ever get on an SLR unless you spend $1500+ on the lens alone. Don't worry about not having RAW. I've talked to semi-professional photographers, and even they don't shoot in RAW. I'm sure there are some situations where pros use it, but it's nothing you'll ever miss. If you're interested in learning how to shoot nice
