danalldred @danalldred (95) 2 Sep 10

I think computers have made us become lazy. we don't have to learn new laguanges anymore, (google translate), we dont have to work for money (google adsense), we don't have to change a dvd or video now, just a few clicks away,...

benhurdeleon IT'S BOTH. We became lazy when computers came into our lives. But, it also made our lives easier and more convenient. Just for example... one good example... in doing "RESEARCH". In the old times.. we still need to go to the library. Travelling to the...

benhurdeleon The habit of watching TV is indeed addictive. And guess what... not that I only watch a TV program... but rather I watch a series of TV programs daily... from one channel only. That's how good our local TV station is in giving balanced programming... it will...

benhurdeleon I've used Windows and Linux (Ubuntu) and all I can say is... Linux performs better, though you'll have problems on websites that uses Silverlight and embedded .WMV multimedia files.

benhurdeleon Steamed broccoli is the best... especially if you wish to absorb all the nutrients... but you won't enjoy it much. It would be best to add something like slices of beef or oyster sauce.

benhurdeleon I think having an iPad is cool and nice... but only if you like to show-off. I guess a laptop or a tablet-PC is still much better. For several reasons: 1) a tablet-PC can either make use of the screen as means of input... but if you need to do some...

Are you on call?

coffeeshot @coffeeshot (3783) • Australia 10 Aug 10

Right now I'm in the middle of an on call shift. It is twelve hours long. Sometimes I think I would prefer an actual shift rather than being on call because it's like being on edge, not knowing whether to go to bed or not and not...

benhurdeleon If the price is right then you shouldn't be annoyed. Being an "on-call" employee is 200% better than being on an actual shift. Just think of it as if you're the "EXPERT" or "SPECIALIST" and no one can do the job except you, and so your responsibilities...

benhurdeleon I beg to disagree. Ubuntu Linux doesn't suck. Actually this has been a life-saver for more than a few occasions already. Yes, I know that it isn't as exciting as Windows, mostly because there aren't a lot of games for Linux. But let me tell you this,...

what chinese food do you like best?

shawn888 @shawn888 (22) • Australia 27 Jun 10

I have been tasting different types of chinese food, noodles, dumplings, different rice and vegetables, but I like Peking roast duck best!

benhurdeleon Wanton soup or egg noodles or a combination of both. These are my favorite Chinese food. Deep-fried Chinese spring rolls are also good but I'm trying to stay away from fats now.

amybrezik @amybrezik (2118) • United States 7 Aug 10

I love potatoes. Mashed, sweet, scalloped and baked. I love them. I also really like new potatoes. What kind of potato recipes do you guys have. Would love to try some new ones.

benhurdeleon How about mojo potatoes, have you tried them? It's simple to do... just do the following: 1) Wash the potatoes in clean water and make sure to remove all the dirt (but don't remove the skin). 2) Slice it into chips (without peeling the skin) but not...

benhurdeleon Just a safety measure... just perform the "select all" + "copy" routine, so that if previewing or posting fails... just do a quick "paste" then all your frustration will be gone. It happened to me... more than 10 times already.

benhurdeleon It's only a waste of time if your body doesn't need it. For example, if you have already overslept for more than what you need (6-8 hours), then that's the time that you can say that people are lazy. But you must also take into consideration the fatigue that...

benhurdeleon Go ahead... buy one... but make sure to ask for at least a year of warranty, in that case you can be sure that the device that you'll get is worth your money. But, indeed it's true, China phones have very nice features (except for the camera), one of the...

How do you cook instant noodles?

damned_dle @damned_dle (3942) • Philippines 7 Aug 10

benhurdeleon For me, it will depend on the cookingware that I will use. If it's a sealed pot or a small pot with cover, I usually put everything in the pot, give it a quick mix/stir, then bring it to a boil. Once I see bubbles on the water (through the pot's glass cover)....

benhurdeleon For me... it has its PROs and CONs. As for PROs, when it is raining, it really feels nice just relaxing inside your home. This is the time when you get to do things at home (or you are forced to do things at home because it's raining outside). The feeling...
