I spent a good eight or nine hours each on my character applications... As for the question at hand, Firefox is much better. Sure, Chrome is a bit faster and the design is a bit more streamlined, but that doesn't really matter, now does it? The difference in load times is the difference between maybe a second and half a second. Is it really that important that you get that extra half second? And as for the design, you can just customize your Firefox theme to something streamlined like Chrome, which segues perfectly into why Firefox is better: it has customization, lots of customization. You can do pretty much whatever you want with it. And this doesn't just involve appearances, either. There are different extensions you can download, too, to customize even the way the Firefox works. Regarding IE, it's shit. That's really all there is to say about it. It's shit. You can't even apply the general windows arguments of "it's easier" or "it's more compatible," since both are untrue. In fact, IE is less compatible as it doesn't have compatibility with HTML5. At least, it didn't used to. I don't know if they've fixed that yet. And, what do you mean by "desktop shortcuts?" |

Chromium has plenty of customization as well, so that point is moot, really. It really just comes down to preference. You can use pretty much every browser out there without a hitch. Except Internet Explorer. Explorer sucks. |

The thing for having fun with nerf guns is getting one you don't have to reload so much. My housemates and I all bought the same nerf six shooters when we moved in, and had good fun with them. If I were buying one today, I'd get this one. http://www.amazon.com/Nerf-N-Strike-Exclusive-Trooper-CS-18/dp/B003YGVVO6/ref=cm_lmf_tit_14 |

I have that one. It's actually one of the best ones there is, since it has great accuracy (for a Nerf gun, at any rate), high possible rate of fire, and great range, since they're built with a faulty air restrictor. |

Does Chromium have the ability to create web previews that open a temporary sub-window, allowing you to quickly and easily see what a link leads to without leaving the page you're on or go through the hassle of opening another tab? |

It usually takes me 5-10 minutes. 20 if it is really large. Just depends, really. I'd say the average is about 8 minutes, though. As for character sheets, those things take forever (because mine are really big - like other things of mine that are very big). I can usually write up a good outline or something in 20-30 minutes, though I end up going back later and fleshing and detailing it even more. Firefox is a beast. You can do basically everything that you could do with Chrome with the new firefox. It provides more protection for your computer as well. |

Just went out and saw Friends With Benefits with the lady. I didn't think it'd be good, but it was surprisingly funny. Had a lot of hilarious parts, but at the same time it managed to actually put together decent characters and conflicts. I mean, it's no Princess Bride, but still funny for a romantic comedy. ![]() |

I argued about comic books all day. (And this morning. And last night. I've been arguing comic books pretty much non-stop for the past 21 hours...) (It's a big argument.) |

You know, it's kind of hard to type with a rat crawling on your keyboard. |

Eat the rat, then. Problem solved, and you've got breakfast/lunch/dinner/snack/other (delete as appropriate) sorted, too. Everyone's a winner! Except the rat, and nobody else really benefits... You win! |

Anyway, in unrelated news, I've begun playing Mount and Blade again, to take my mind off school. There's little more satisfying than killing an army of Vaegirs with a platoon of archers. At least, I'll be playing it until November.
