slackers

I spam, I mean post, from home or uni, and no one cares what you do at uni so no need for the really obvious multitasking to the excel sheet trick

Hmm...

Microsoft is cornering the market of computors, Iron Throne cornered the market of Iron.

Microsoft has a big evil leader, Iron Throne had a big evil leader

Microsoft sends goons and lackies to buy out competition, Iron Throne sends Kobalds and lackies to buy out competition...

I think there is a connection here!

Has anyone seen the video clip of Steve Palmer running out onto the stage going "YEEAAAA!!!" and acting like a total ass? Classic stuff

Xan! What are you thinking! Bill Gates will look at it, think it's his life story, and sue the crap out of Black Isle!

He will get a view of what is comming his way

Or maybe sue Black Isle

Maybe both....

So your saying that a group of adventures lead by Bill Gate's brother are going to come and get him? Hmmm... an interesting look at things to come

Aegis · Post by **Aegis** » Tue Aug 28, 2001 10:39 pm

A chilling look at what will be... All this and more at 6!

More? How could you possibly top the fact that bill gates' brother and a group of adventurers are going to put and end to Bill Gates?

If Bill Gates is Sarevok then who is Elminster? And who is Drizzt?!?!?!? And who is Safana?!?!?!

Anyway, I do the hide-the-taskbar trick, because the tab that says "GameB..." looks obvious on there, but then I get nervous because I think that if people notice my taskbar is not showing, they'll assume I'm online...

Luckily my office uses some DOS programs, and they always take up the full screen when you alt-tab to them, hiding the taskbar. Strange, I notice that the office manager always seems to be switching to a DOS program right as I walk up...

My boss just sits there a plays solitaire all day, though. No shame!!!

Of course, he's the boss!

I found an handy way to mask the explorer in the taskbar, switch the explorer icon with the word icon!
This way when someone looks at you taskbar he will see word not explorer.

(used to do this at school)

Rob-hin, I am deeply in your debt. Sometimes someone can do something simple for you, that changes your life for the better in ways they cannot possibly imagine. This is one of those times. If you ever need a favor, no matter how great, consider it done.

Vehemence · Post by **Vehemence** » Wed Aug 29, 2001 12:43 am

Heh, people spend more time and energy finding ways to get out of work than actually doing work. A world full of slackers

In my Intro to Programming class, we're suppoed to have a website open. The professor posts the class agenda online so we have to log into the CAC website and go to that page. I do that, then open another window and come here. Then all I have to do is switch back and forth. He never gets close enough to be able to read the taskbar.

In English Composition, I just keep an MS Word window up to switch between.
