Community blog - have you had your nice day today?

I went to a bunch of used bookstores today.I like to do this every summer, because college students always their sell off their used textbooks there when the uni one won't buy them, so I can buy them for cheap. Found a few interesting ones, one on topology, one on analysis, even one on stochastic statistical processes and finite element simulation. Paid about $50 in all.

I also saw the physics book I used in college. I paid $350 for the two volumes, but the version in the store had all the volumes and was selling for $20, all because it is, like, two editions old. Fucking Jews, man.

Good luck grepping an ebook made with a cellphone camera in a public restroom.

Plus, I can hit a <Page_Down> in 20ms, than waste 2 seconds flipping a page. In a 300 page book, that's a 594 p/s savings.

What an absolutely idiotic argument. If two seconds means so much to you, why are reading? You remind me of speed-`readers' who claim to be able to read a book in minutes but absorb absolutely nothing from it.

Human being are not computers, you autist. Two seconds should mean nothing. Even over the largest of books, compared to the time you should spend actually reading, it is a rounding error.
