There's an interesting idea coming from the TV series, Burn Notice, about team work.
Special-forces squads are built around the skills of the individual members. But no matter how good each member of the squad is, every mission comes down to one thing, how well they work together. Because in the end, you don't need a hero to succeed in the field. You need a team.
Good stuff. Food for thought.

Every episode leaves me wanting to see more. The way it goes is, it finishes a story but starts with a new lead for the next one.
When you work as a spy, it's easy to think of people as assets. Resources to accomplish a goal. Because you don't have a personal relationship with an asset. You don't care about an asset. You don't miss the scent of an asset when she leaves the room.

Some serious strategy right here. Exactly what you would expect from good players of StarCraft, or any strategy game for that matter :D
For a spy, there's no shame in retreat. When faced with a more powerful enemy you're trained to get out of the way and keep moving. It's not about running away or giving up. The goal of any retreat is to find the right place to marshal your resources and make a stand. Military history is filled with stories of small forces taking on larger ones. Whether it's David fighting Goliath or the French Resistance fighting the Nazis, the strategy is basically the same. You have to choose the right ground, deploy your resources carefully, and remember that the greatest weapon in any battle is surprise.

Changing desktop location (Windows 7)
Recently, I had to reformat my windows partition in order to fix a crash with my OS, booting up was impossible. I lost a lot of files in the process.
Looked around the internet and found that it is possible to change the location of the desktop and documents folders :D. This is convenient in case you need to reformat your main partition.

- Go to your user folder (i.e. C:\Users\chesster)
- Right click the Desktop folder -> Properties -> Location
- Click Move
- Select the new location (preferably a different partition/completely different storage device)
Globe Internet Promo Super Surf is BAD (part 2)
Kasunod nitong malupit na 1GB per day internet.
Ngayon naman 800MB per day nalang. Sana kasi, sinesend nila yan kapag nagregister ka palang. Huwag na nilang sabihing unlimited, kasi hindi naman unlimited.

GLOBE Advisory: Ur data subscription for today has reached 800mb. Ur remaining browsing hours will resume tomorrow subject to promo validity. U may opt to forfeit ur remaining subscription to browse for P5/15. To unsubscribe text POWERSURF OFF or SUPERSURF OFF to 8888. This promo is guided by Globe Fair Use Policy.

Pero ang pinakamalufet sa promo na iyan, may bug siya. At consumer ang magbabayad ng kamalian ng system. Consumer din ang mahihirapan lalo na kung may kailangan siyang gawing importanteng transaction.
Nung December 4, umabot ako sa 802MB pero ok lang naman, wala namang nag-message sakin na lampas na ko sa limit. Bigla nalang silang nagpalit ng policy ng walang abiso.
Yung point ko talaga is, dapat na reset yung bandwidth ko for December 6. Mali yung system nila, ni-consider niya na out of bandwidth ako for the December 6, when in fact, December 5 ako naka-consume ng full capacity.
Syempre itinawag ko sa kanila. Ipinaliwanag ko na wala naman akong na-consume na bandwidth, pero hindi ako maka-access ng internet. Yung nakausap kong CSR, hindi magets na since may budget pa ako, dapat makakapag internet pa rin ako gamit yung product nila. Nirerequest ko lang na paki-ayos or i-extend yung promo time ko kasi wala nga akong nagamit, at system naman nila ang may kasalanan. Binigyan ko na nga siya ng malufet na analogy. Kung ikaw pumasok ka sa barbershop, nagbayad ka na para sa gupit tapos hindi ka ginupitan dahil sabi nila sa iyo quota na sila nung nakapag bayad ka, matutuwa ka ba? Sagot niya sakin, sorry daw, lesson learned ko raw, wala raw silang magagawa. Napakamot nalang talaga ko kasi sigurado naman may magagawa tungkol sa simpleng problemang ito. Wala silang ginawa siyempre.
Kaya ayun. Hindi ko marerecommend yung product nila.

actions per minute speak louder than words
How do you increase your starcraft actions per minute (APM)? Want to get 1000+ APM?
Using the Razer Mamba mouse, you can simulate spam clicking.
Setup a macro that does five right clicks with one right click
Bind the macro to whichever mouse button you want to utilize
Switch to the configured profile when playing. It is also possible to setup auto switch.
This APM method will not win you games, obviously. :D
If you want to improve your game via APM, natural APM is what you want, not spam click APM. This method is just for fun. XD
