GotAnyMegadeth··on The Year the Monarch Didn’t Appear
I know that most species that have ever existed have gone extinct, but every time I hear about a new one I can't help feeling sad. That doesn't just apply to the cute an cuddly ones either. Insects and fish are ace.

Is there a FAQ/Guidelines on what kind of thing you can/should post?

Also can you add pictures etc to posts?

Good point. If someone's life depended on it, I probably would read the Street Fighter manual, just in case

> someone who uses things they don't understand without looking at the documentation is stupid

I disagree, that's sometimes the best way to learn something. I learnt C, Java and Perl just by ploughing in without reading anything. Change something, see what happens, if it doesn't make sense ask Google.

Also programming languages aside, I never read computer game manuals before playing

GotAnyMegadeth··on Having a hard time getting over being not rich
"I have saved over a million dollars and I make over 60k per year in passive income ... At that rate, I will never know what it is to be rich."

WHAT? I would consider that hideously rich, I've never met anyone with that much money before. A million dollars? Speechless.

I hate this kind of scroll website, using the mouse wheel to scroll just means everything is really jerky and isn't ever quite lined up, or correctly faded.

That seems very rich to me. Are the living costs in "the midwest in [a] large metropolitan area" ludicrously high?

I think this is a good idea. However, this does seem dangerous for drug addicts.
