incredibleDNA @incredibleDNA (1742) • Philippines 3 Nov 10

i went to a local computer store earlier to help my aunt for their PC as the motherboard broke down. while i was waiting there tho, i saw different kinds of monitors, from lcd to led and i was just wondering now about LED...

twistedties LED stands for Light Emitting Diode, and have several advantages over LCD monitors. If I'm not wrong, LED monitors are able to produce brighter colours and are more power effecient. I think they could be thinner than LCD monitors/TVs as well.

elevator

kerriisthebest @kerriisthebest (448) • United States 3 Nov 10

Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster? I do press it more than once sometimes, but I don't think it makes it go faster. It would be nice if it did though.

twistedties I find that I myself tend to push the elevator button repeatedly - more so when I am in a hurry. I know it does not make the elevator go any faster, but I guess this it is just me being impatient and wanting to do something instead of just standing there...

pormadi @pormadi (1300) • Indonesia 17 Sep 09

If you have children, you should give them a good education. In my country, people tend to use homeschooling to prepare their children for having good education. Certificate can be legalized in ministry of education. Some people...

twistedties Where I'm from, a formal education is compulsory. However, I'm quite certain this hasn't affected my opinion that formal education is preferable. Although homeschooling can be equally or more effective, I personally feel that having your child placed in a...

twistedties I generally enjoy buffets, but most of the time when I do go for one, I tend to overeat to make it worth the money :P Hence, I try not to go for too many since it would be really unhealthy. As for the choice of food to eat, I mostly try and taste a bit of...

twistedties I think lots of people hit the close button by accident when trying to select tabs. To avoid this, you can use ctrl+tab to cycle between tabs - I like to do this and it's much more convenient than reaching for the mouse in my opinion. If you do happen to...

twistedties Other than taking medication, for me the best way to ensure that I get a good night's sleep would be to do some form of exercise in the day. If you can't, sometimes sleeping upside down seems to work - place your pillow at the foot of the bed and sleep that...

twistedties There are many websites out there that do conversions for you for free! You don't even have to download the video from youtube first - the site listentoyoutube.com extracts the audio from videos into an mp3 for you to download straightaway.

Do you prefer to watch Foreign Drama in their Original Language or Dubbed?

Iriene88 @Iriene88 (5343) • Malaysia 12 Sep 09

I love Korean Dramas but those shown on our local television channel are all dubbed in Mandarin with Bahasa Malaysia subtitles. At times the subtitles are wrong too. For those Cantonese movies, Singapore channel will...

original voice vs dubbed version

twistedties Definitely in their original language. I feel that once shows are dubbed, they lose a lot of quality due to the fact that most of the time the voice actors who provide the dubs are unable to convey the right emotion in their lines. Also, like yourself, I tend...

twistedties In my opinion, guitar is one of the easier instruments to pick up, although it takes a long time to master like any musical instrument. I'm a self-taught guitarist as well, and picked up from listening to lots of music. It takes just a few weeks (a few hours a...

twistedties I don't usually drive with loud music myself, only when it's late and I need a way to keep myself awake. I find that with loud music I tend to drive at higher speeds, thus I try not to do it since I intend to live a long life :p I find it quite annoying...

twistedties The alarm clock tries to wake me up, but I just keep hitting the snooze button unconsciously. I guess I sleep like a log, hence when I need to get up early other than setting two alarms I make sure to tell someone in the house that I need to be up by a certain...

twistedties I play a guitar and a little bit of drums, both self taught. Since I don't have a drum kit at home I sort of concentrate more on guitar right now. Kind of sad that I've hit a plateau where I can't seem to find the motivation to improve, and it doesn't help...

Do you need total concentration to enjoy a movie properly?

Eisenherz @Eisenherz (2908) • Portugal 5 Sep 09

So last night I was going to watch this movie. I have some sort of a ritual during them. The house has to be completely dark, I have to be alone and I most focus the best way I can to enjoy it properly. Otherwise I feel like I...

twistedties I think it mostly depends on whether I'm watching the movie in a cinema or not. At home on the couch watching DVDs I don't mind noise as much - in fact I think it's more enjoyable watching with friends and making comments whilst the movie is running. I have...
