I only have one. I also have an old monitor jury-rigged as a TV in my bedroom. Got a cable box going into some adapters to s-video input on a monitor, then an RCA-to-stereo adapter into USB powered speakers for the sound. Of course there's no USB power source without a computer, so they're plugged into a powered USB hub.
There was a great deal (over $100 less than Amazon) on a 26" LCD TV with built-in DVD player a few minutes ago. I clicked "I want it!" a dozen times but it had sold out. Their caching proxies just hadn't told me yet.
@RebeccaChernoff I'm having the same issue as Benjol. After experimenting, I now find myself with SO using the big Google button (so.com/users/19818), SF using profiles.google.com (sf.com/users/1121), and webapps using google.com/profiles (webapps.se.com/users/300).
@RebeccaChernoff Yes, except if I use the Google Profiles button on the OpenID selector to sign up for GIS, then I only see SF as a common account for association, and if I use the big Google button it doesn't see any associated accounts. I've confused myself now to the point where I can't decide whether all that is intended behavior or not.
I used to see all of my SE accounts when I signed up for a new SE account using google.com/profiles. I understand why using the big Google button can't do automatic association.
I think I just need to decide if I want to change everything to the normal Google endpoint or if I want to go around changing everything to profiles.google.com
and that should probably fix everything.
I think having to talk it out like this clarified it in my head what was going on.
@Benjol Yes, I just removed the edit entirely now that I properly understand what my options are.
@Benjol That's what I'm worried about. Google never publicly said that they supported google.com/profiles/username as an OpenID, they just implemented it and as far as I can tell neither encouraged nor discouraged its use
I was using profiles everywhere you see, and on the newest site I couldn't log in with 'google.com/profiles' ('cos it doesn't exist anymore), so it didn't get associated (worse, it's pre-beta, so I couldn't get in at all).
@balpha, with the google profile changes, when I logged into mechanics for the first time today, it didn't associate with my other sites, because the url of the profile openid has changed. Does this mean that my inbox in mechanics won't show anything from SO (and vice versa)?
Bear with me...
I went to sign into mechanics pre-beta, but couldn't because it couldn't associate the new url of Google Profile OpenId (profiles.google.com), with the 'old' one on Area51 (www.google.com/profiles)
So I switched/updated my OpenId on Area51, and managed to sign in to mechanics - ...

@TimStone Actually, I hated the whole 'gray vote box touching side of question element' thingy so much that I had my userstyle give it a little padding to separate them
Well, it's not quite that horrible...Close! But I should probably limit my reaction in case greater travesties come along. Like more single-column tables (which are certainly not Jin's fault).
On the other side of the coin, brownie points to whoever made the responses tab. I'm not entirely sure whether or not I actually need any of that information, but I'll take it.
also, comic-sansifying the site would be an...interesting...april fools.
A long-forgotton videogame website once replaced all images with hand-drawn duplicates saying all the images had been "stolen"...something could come into play here?
Just spent a minute looking for the Search Function until I realized that the "Welcome to this site, here is the FAQ" banner is hiding the top banner and therefore the search box.
On StackOverflow, the banner pushes down the content, which isn't that esthetically pleasing but doesn't hide the se...

@Benjol Uh huh, but those are pretty standard info - atomic mass, proton number, but nothing more, like say isotopes, electronegativity and atomic radii
@Benjol Uh huh.. now I really realized why I should've learnt a desktop scripting language like Python or Perl
I'd imagine cURL + a parser like beautiful soup should make short work of it
Tell me, how does replying in Gmail works?
I've just received an invitation to an event from a mailing list a couple of hours ago, and now I'm getting replies which are suppose to go back specifically to the person who sent out the email sent to me because they apparently replied to the mailing list address instead
@YiJiang don't know if that's specific to gmail or to mailing lists - I think on mailing lists you generally have two options: "Reply to list" or "Reply to originator", sounds like yours is the first
@Benjol I just tried to click on the reply button on Thunderbird, and indeed it does do that. Still, in Thunderbird at least the sender's email is listed clearly, so there's no reason why they shouldn't be replying to that instead of everyone on the list :|
@Jin If you're going to start updating SO's CSS, please have a look at that old userstyle I built for it; it solves a lot of the minor visual problems I find annoying with SO's design
I've been keeping this to myself for a little too long... its a fairly long user script that attempts to fix some of the UI bugs on Stack Overflow, as well as a few minor enhancements. Enhancements are of course always subjective, so if you dislike any of them, simply rip them out from the code. ...
hm...depending on the amount of control you have over the servers see if you can get the fans to play a tune, al-la top gear and the UK national anthem - youtube.com/watch?v=41kEbvZjtso
is the internal speaks a fully funcational speaker, or is it just able to beep? Get a technician in there then run whispering and laughing through them
Run a cron job that spawns another forked ping to a random server within the network, migrate it out to other servers. Claim they're just saying hello to each other.
previous school one user complained that her computer was freezing, so as it was april 1st the network manager told her to put her coat round it to keep it warm.
