Why is Chrome much worse at showing urls in the address/search bar that I've already been to than Firefox? For instance, if I want to go to the Wikipedia page that has all the episodes of Community (which I've been to before), on Firefox I'll start typing "list of community episodes," and by the time I've hit the c, it knows that's the page I want. Chrome doesn't do this nearly as well; it prioritizes searching much higher, even if I don't precede my input with a ?.

This question could be rephrased equally well as "why does Firefox always assume that what I wanted in the past is what I want now?" Besides, you answered the question yourself: Chrome prioritizes searching and options, Firefox prioritizes past behavior and static preferences.

That being said, is there anything I can do to make Chrome's address bar work more like Firefox's? I'd just switch to FF, but my netbook already struggles enough with Chrome, and I was under the impression that it's lighter on the resources.

Hmm, no answers on how to figure out how much these stupid china teacups are worth, which doesn't surprise me. But! I have another question. The past couple of days my Gmail has been wonky. It won't load, so I go to the HTML version (which looks like rear end, but at least I can get my mail). Is this just a thing with me, or is it their problem? I guess I'm asking if anyone else has had any trouble, if I'm the only one I'll head to the Haus and see if they can assist me. If it's a problem a lot of people are having, I will wait it out and see if the big G fixes their poo poo.

Can anyone remember the name of some roots band in the 90s who did a version of "Froggy Went A-Courtin"? Google brings me no joy. The only additional clue I have is there was no bass on the recording (and possibly no bass player in the band).

It was because of AdBlock which is odd as it's never interfered with Gmail before, which is why I didn't even think of it. In fact, half the time I forget I have it installed. I feel like an idjit but I'm so thankful that it's fixed that I don't care about said idjitcy. Cheers.

I was in the grocery store the other day with my girlfriend, and she wanted to get some shrimp to make shrimp scampi. I told her we didn't have enough money to buy shrimp, so she talked me into paying for two really dubious looking bags of essentially "miscellaneous frozen seafood" that was on sale. It has squid tentacles, something called top shell (which is apparently sea-snail?), and tiny, tiny shrimp in it. We tried to make scampi with it a few days later, but it smelled terrible and turned the sauce a pepto-bismol color. We choked some of it down (her by dousing it in lemon juice and me by whipping up a quick homemade tartar sauce to dunk it in), but we still threw about a third of it in the trash. Unfortunately, I still have a whole 'nother bag in the freezer. Any suggestions as to how I could cook it so it would be palatable?

Is there ANY way you can become a qualified therapist/psychologist with that kind of poo poo on your record? What are other career options with a psych major? High School Guidance counselor? Clinical psychiatry and counseling aren't the only things a psychology degree is good for. Anecdote: Many of the people I know who did psychology did it because they thought it was "easy." Many others did it just to get the degree so they could go on to get a B.Ed. or something. Psychologists are scientists. Some people go on from there onto grad school and hook electrodes onto the brains of rats and poo poo. Maybe he hopes to understand the human brain better so that he can better cope with his illness? Maybe he wants to become a researcher to help find better treatments for these disorders? Also: Yes this guy has schizophrenia and depression, but as long as he's receiving adequate treatment he'll be a fully functional member of society. Some of your teachers and counselors may be medicated depressive schizophrenics, you know. Question for the thread: If most symptoms of many common illnesses (fever, coughing, sneezing, runny nose, inflammation, diarrhea, etc) are immune responses that fight against infection, does taking medication that suppress these symptoms inhibit your body's ability to get rid of the infection?

My question was mostly are you inherently disqualified from being a practicing therapist due to mental health conditions. Also I have to take issue with the idea of Psychologists as scientists, Psychiatrists are MDs, hence them allowed to have prescription pads, I have no loving idea what they train psych majors in but it's not science.

Psychologists do research and therapeutic work, as well as corporate gigs. They don't get scrip pads but if they're in counseling they usually have an MD who will sign off to whatever they think is the likeliest med for their patients. There is no broad disqualification for mental illnesses across the board. To paraphrase Forrest Gump "crazy is as crazy does," and a lot of pre-employment screening is intended to catch people who fit a pattern of mental illness.

Avocados posted:How did the idea of cooking food catch on for early humans when every other living thing ate stuff raw? Nobody really knows. Cooking is obviously advantageous for a number of reasons. It makes things taste better, makes most edible things easier to eat, renders some inedible things edible, and destroys parasites and microbes as well as a number of toxic compounds found in plants. At some point way back in pre-history someone figured out that heating your food up just works better.

Mak0rz posted:Question for the thread: Yes and no. Those symptoms are body's way of removing the disease from your system. However, excluding fevers, many of those symptoms are also used by the virus itself in an effort to contaminate other hosts. That said, preventing increased mucus production, or preventing your body from expelling waste from its intestines could increase the duration of your sickness. My doctor has always said if you have a fever, let it run its course and monitor your temperature to make sure you aren't in danger of dying. If you have a cough, take an expectorant only to get the crap out of your lungs. Drink plenty of fluids, get plenty of rest, and exercise moderately if you can handle it. This will generally decrease the duration of your illness. The caveat is, do this only if you are able to stay home alone. If you have to work and interact with other people, do us a favor and try to suppress your symptoms while you're in contact with the public to avoid infecting others. At least, that's my opinion. I'm not a doctor or anything.

RaoulDuke12 posted:Yes and no. Neat. Thanks for the info. cargo cult posted:Also I have to take issue with the idea of Psychologists as scientists, Psychiatrists are MDs, hence them allowed to have prescription pads... What? Are you serious? Yes, psychiatrists are essentially MDs. Psychologists are scientists. They perform real scientific research using real scientific methods in real scientific labs and publish their work in real scientific journals. Psychology is the scientific study of the brain. Psychiatry is medically applied psychology. Is that difficult to grasp? You even mentioned both distinct terms in your post. cargo cult posted:I have no loving idea what they train psych majors in but it's not science.

There's a lot more overlap in the fields (of neuroscience and psychology) than you're acknowledging and there's a lot more to psychology research than psychoanalysis, which doesn't even exist in the form you're describing it anymore. Psychologist can be used for both researchers and therapists and counselors, though. Xandu fucked around with this message at 07:37 on Jan 21, 2012 |

Well it sounds like you've made up your mind already but if your judement of the field is based off theories that are 90 years old and long since abandoned you should reconsider. Current psychological research published in reputable journals has rigor and applicability, so I think you should at least read up before being so dismissive. Also, to clarify: psychiatrists are literally mds (or dos) who have completed a residency in psychiatry. Medication decisions are solely their purview, though plenty of them can perform the same therapies that psychologists do. Edit2: also plenty of insurers cover therapy when it has been demonstrated to be clinically effective: phobias, anxiety disorders including PTSD, GAD, acute stress disorder, panic disorder, etc. I'm not sure where your dismissive attitude comes from but it's probably misinformed.
