I had been suffering from a gradually worsening sleep schedule. At one point, I was going to bed at 6am. I had tried going to bed "on time", but I always felt really active around midnight, and I could never fall asleep.

Then about a week ago, I had just pulled an all-nighter, and so at around 4pm I just had to take a nap. Only, I was really drained, and I wound up turning that nap into a 10 hour slumber. And so I got at 2am the next day. And then by the evening of that next day, my eyes started closing themselves at around 9pm, and I've been falling asleep effortlessly (IE passing out) at around 10-11pm ever since. It feels great, and I get so much more done.

So if you have trouble getti

I saw the posts about the wireless questionnaire, and I was wondering how many people are really affected by this thing? 8 times out of 10, my T410 with Ubuntu fails to connect. Everyone I know reports the same - even professors and TA's. Windows works just fine. Are we all dealing with this, or what? Is there a Linux user who doesn't have issues? Is there someone who did have issues, but successfully resolved them?

It's driving me up the wall. I've been unable to print homeworks a couple times now (fool me once...), and I've had a ton of problems collaborating with my groupmates. Computing services' response is essentially "FU."

I'm in the market for a laptop. I'd go for the cheapest one, but I need it to be able to run minecraft OK. Apparently that's not so easy since the i5 4GBDDR3 onboard graphics computer I'm typing this on is having trouble on all but the lowest settings.

I was wondering what laptops you folks have tried playing minecraft on, how they handled it, and on what settings. Anyone actually have any good experiences with intel onboard graphics?

Thanks!

Hello, let's do a recipe exchange. I know some great Ukrainian recipes. I can also teach you how to make bread and a fermented drink called kvass although I'm still working on that one. I'm interested in South Indian or just Indian food, or any traditional food from your country, or anything else you think is good.

Ideally, I'd like to get enough people together and do a potluck where we each bring some unique things and talk about how to make them.

Also I can fix your bike. See my other post.

Hello, if you're in the NYC area, I can help fix your bike and also teach you how to do it yourself. I used to volunteer at a bike coop in another city. I'm not as knowledgable as the guys in the bike shop, but I can help you with things like chain skipping, poor braking, rust(maybe), all sort of problems really. I have all the tools, but keep in mind it gets greasy and takes up space and I can't work outside in this weather.

I like working on bikes and I have a lot of free time. If you can teach me a recipe or make some food, that would be cool.
