What do you know about umbrellas?


You know what they say about March: In like a lion, out like a lamb. March is National Umbrella Month. In honor of the occasion, the Luchtime Quiz today at mental_floss is on umbrellas. I scored 80%. http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/13632

Can we please clarify that it moves your mouse pointer around on the screen? Correct? I mean...there's no motor in a mouse itself to allow it to move autono"mouse"ly (heh). Unless it was one of those vibrating force-feedback ones. Hmm.

The computers in the labs at my school log off after 10-15 minutes of inactivity. I found a program that I could download and run off my USB to move the mouse every five minutes, so I don't lose all my work just because I went to ask the teacher a question.

Silly? No.

Many work sites, including mine, will lock out the computer after 15 minutes of inactivity (as a security precaution). And the users have no administrative privilege to disable this.

Which is no problem,,, just type in your password again.

However, if I bring my laptop home, and wanna watch a movie on it, I have to move the mouse every couple of minutes to it doesn't go into sleep mode. It's annoying.
