Why not?

There's no special magical difference between you and a doctor. Doctors aren't special, they just learned more than you.

Everyone should know first aid, and there's a granular learning curve all the way from first aider to neurosurgeon. Where you are on that scale depends entirely on how much you've learned.

I know a lot more than a first aider, and a lot less than a nurse. I could tie your stitches, for example, or treat first or second degree burns, or stick your dislocated shoulder back in just fine. I couldn't stitch your hernia or give you a cannula.

It only gets stupid if you're doing it without any sort of education or training, or if you don't know what you don't know.

When I was at school, I had a Saturday job in a shoe shop in Leeds market. We called them forms. I don't know if that's what they're actually called or if it was slang, though.

Told you Iceland would take it in the end though. If we hadn't beaten Austria, Portugal wouldn't even have qualified for the knockout stages.

I'm claiming that as a victory.

But at the start, The Guardian said Portugal could be 90 minutes away from immortality. It doesn't matter how much it sucks, even I'd play a game of football if it means I get to live forever.

Christy Moore at Vicar Street in September. Dunno if I can afford it yet, and Christy tours a lot, so you can always manage it somewhere, but Vicar Street is always a special one.

Every American comedy actor. Please invent comedy before trying to perform it.

Also, Sylvester Stallone, Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and Ronald Reagan.

Portugal for the final, because the cycling commentators keep going on about the bloody football, and it'll carry on all the way to the Champs Elysee if France actually win.

Night Of The Living Dead, takes place the night at the start of the zombie apocalypse. Zombies are slow, simple minded, and stubborn.

Dawn of The Dead starts at the beginning of the outbreak, later than Night, but probably by a few days, weeks at most. Zombies are still slow and simple minded. They begin to exhibit the most rudimentary forms of learning/memory by returning to places they knew in life (initially, the mall, later the storage room). Tom Savini is killed.

Day of the Dead takes place some considerable time after the first two. Society has been overrun, which may have taken weeks, but also the military base has lost most of it's staff, is almost out of supplies, and even ran out of zombies! This is years after Dawn. Bub learns to listen to music, and shoot people.

Land of the Dead takes place a bit later than Day. A city has been built defended from the dead, people are speaking of retirement from their present jobs, and speak of loyalty earned with long service. This is years in the future. Zombies finally learn to think, use tools, hunt as a group, etc. Note how this took years, and years of growth and development, and was definitely not a thing that sprung up overnight - it has been incremental until this point. Despite previously being eaten, Tom Savini has managed to grow back, and becomes a zombie again.

Diary of the Dead takes us back in time to the same time as Night of the Living Dead. Zombies are simple again, and nothing interesting happens, except, halfway through is also the beginning of Survival of the Dead.

Survival of the Dead, therefore, happens slightly after Dawn of the Dead, and long, long before Land of the Dead, yet mere nights after the breakout, Zombies are seeing with ridiculously complex motor skills, one of them even being capable of riding a horse! This is flatly contradictory to the rate of education given to zombies throughout the other documentaries.

Given that we've seen early zombies capable of learning, which should not have been witnessed until late generation zombies, and we've seen Tom Savini both eaten by zombies, and then return as an uneaten zombie, does this mean zombies are capable of time travel?

~1,500 statoshi = $0.01

Most of the time, you get between 300 and 1,500 statoshi per payout. Is it worth it? You'd think not, but we still click Clixsense ads, and they are in the end.

Bitcoin is guaranteed to increase in value if is survives. Because there's a limited number of them inflation is dealt with by adding a zero, moving the decimal point, so to speak. When I was doing this at the start, it was paying around 0.1 bitcoin, but it was worthless in GBP. Then the boom came, I pocketed six grand, and the faucets added five 0's to the front of their payouts.

I think the big wins have been and gone. Whether it's worth it or not probably depends on whether or not you agree.

Oh, no, that's a faucet, that's fine.

You don't have to let them run in the background - if you return later it'll still have gone up. The longer you leave it between claiming the slower it goes up. The idea is if you're too fast, the advertisers aren't getting unique views, but if you're too slow, you need some encouragement to come back. You've got to figure out the best trade off between the hassle of claiming, and the decreasing rates. I used to do them as quickly as possible, but that's when they were still paying up to 0.1 BTC. Now it's more like 0.000005 BTC, so I only even remember when I see an ad.

Oh, that's slightly different - I thought you were asking about the delay after the initial login.

Going away and coming back is probably a result of changing caching servers. You never connect directly to Clixsense, you connect to a caching server run by crowdflare. These caching servers are never completely synchronised. They're always slightly out because of network latency, and on top of that, the delay in your browser updating the page which I'm not sure how it works here, but as an example, I personally implement that on a 90 second delay (so if a caching server is one second out, you still might have to wait 90 seconds for your browser to catch up).

If you want to see a spectacular failure of caching server lag, try sports comments at Eurosport during a big event like the World Cup, Tour de France, or Olympic games.

In the background? You're mining bitcoin? You don't want to do that unless you're using renewable energy. The cost of electricity to generate one bitcoin is more than the value of one bitcoin.

Glad he's not dead.

I've lived a lot of lives. I have an eighty two year old friend who says I'm older than her. I've lived a lot of lives because I was looking for something, and I didn't know what it was. Through my late teens and most of my twenties (I did stay long enough to pick up a qualification, but travelled either side), I never even spent more than six months in the same country, and I wasn't rich either - I did it by not being scared of being homeless, not by being able to afford it. Eventually, it turned out the thing I was looking for, running from, and trying to achieve was...me.

Success is knowing who you are.

It's impossible to say without knowing what happens under the hood, but we know Clixsense has weird session handling to help with load balancing.

So, they probably start your session, and find some available ads as quickly as possible. Once they've given you something, they start another query to find everything, which is a much slower query. This prevents you having to wait ten minutes after logging in for the first few ads to load.

Again, it's impossible to know without being able to see what happens under the hood, but even if it isn't this, it's going to be something similar to this. It's a common trick used by lots of websites - keep the very most recent data either cached or partitioned where it can be grabbed quickly, and fetch the rest while the user is already engaged with something.

Doctor Who, obviously.

There may have been a reboot with fancy new special effects and huge budgets, and yes, it might be hard to see past the dated sets of the classic series - but it's stronger in every other respect.

Puppy Linux is probably your best bet for that sort of spec.

The best way is to have already mined it several years ago. If you're not capable of time travel, have a look at the official wiki. Their list is out of date, but a lot of the sites are still alive. Faucets are much of a muchness, and they do set your computer on fire, yes - but there are two or three good ones too.

Also, keep an eye on Clixgrid. They're not ultra regular, but you should see at least a few a week.

Also, what Charez says - though while the option is there, I wasn't aware Tango was paying yet.

Bah, there's only one way to make your partner happy: Here, have some chocolate.
