If you're not meeting any monsters, check in the options and change from "Peaceful" to another mode. Beyond that - there aren't really any goals. It's a huge sandbox. However, there may be some depth you're missing: - There are some 'toys'

I just wanted to present a warning about Minecraft: That game is distilled binary crack. I have lost a couple of entire days to the damned thing, and I only purchased it a couple of weeks ago. So just be careful if you try it out. I'm a rec

It definitely took me a while after moving away from Dallas to change some of my driving habits. I still definitely change lanes more than most drivers around here - although I do my best not to cut anyone off, and I actually let drivers in

Well, further research and messing around: It looks like multiple-language highlighting (a single document with HTML, PHP, and CSS) is not really available. I looked in the forum to try and see if I could figure out how to maybe add it myse

I had the good fortune to do a three month internship in Seattle last spring. And I have to say - after growing up in Dallas, now living in Florida, and seeing traffic in other places... Seattle drivers are unique. I've seen this [appear to

Maybe I'm missing something -- I write PHP files with HTML sections - and often CSS <style> sections in HTML. I can't figure out how to get true multi-language highlighting working. Does anyone else have this working? If I choose HT

As a typekit user, I have insight into this. It's as PaulHammond said: Embedding fonts means downloading a copy of the whole font. TypeKit tracks how big the font files are. Each font might only be ~20-30K - but that's one weight/style. If

Probably just the ADHD, but I find myself running past this limit all the time. What really annoys me about it is that they don't limit the characters in the text box - you can happily paste a novel in there if you want. Just when you go to

Not using Taskforce (although I just signed up - sounds very interesting) - this seems similar to the "Defer" feature of the "Mail Tweak" add-on for Thunderbird. I love being able to defer emails until a specific time. I use it for the sm

http://webhostingtalk.com/ is my go-to place for hosting opinions. More specifically, I recommend iWeb.com - I've had dedicated servers with them for more than five years. They're top quality. I haven't had any unmetered servers with them

I just wanted to double-check your comment about "ten seconds" - really that much? As in, timed with a watch, or it "feels like" ten seconds? I'm only asking because ten seconds is actually quite a long time at an intersection, and it fasci

My thought as well. So, blow through about $4.3 million in money from your scam, pay back $10k, and oh, they can't scam people using the scam they used that was already illegal. I'm seriously in the wrong business, with the wrong ethics.

I would assume it would work similarly to how extensions update - or perhaps how the "Update Notifier" addon works. The way I configured it, it checks for updates to addons every few hours, and if it finds one, installs it silently. The nex
