Firefox's searching within sites - Right-click a site's search field, say Amazon's, then select 'add a keyword'.
Type whatever you'd wanna use as a keyword or letter for an Amazon search from your browser, for example 'A', then save.
Now you can use your address bar for quick product searches or anything else, so for example, 'A laptop'.

Well, something I learned this week. Water based "enamel paints" (I'm looking at you, Plasti-Kote) are sh!t. Well, clearly they are good for something, but not what I was using them for. Been doing a few name plates for the wife's school, and found that water soluble paints are really not for that kind of job.
I have a tin of solvent based paint which I used, and it was so much better - flowed better, only needed one coat. The water based stuff just isn't up to it.
And to make matters worse, I saw (up close) a Caters Steam Fair van, and that was hand painted and not a brush mark out of place. Made my efforts seem quite inadequate.

http://www.gamesradar.com/25-original-c ... ed-movies/That's a totally different Michael for Batman! Michelle's scale of dark must be nuanced - no to Silence of the Lambs, yes to Batman Returns. I'd love to have seen that version of Blade Runner

I knew about Stollz from reading about BTTF. Is MJF shorter than Keaton? I think I was aware of some of the planned roles like Neo in the Matrix but some of them were a complete surprise to me.

There's a Fight Club comic. Of course, I really shouldn't be talking about it, but...

The latest version of Firefox has Reader View which gives a plain white page to the main text - very useful on some sites if you wanna read an article without half-killing your browser.

Does it reverse white writing on black background? I hate those sites as it makes my vision blurry. Today I learnt that stingrays have grinding plates instead of teeth, which is quite handy as one bit me.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
