What you need for that is a proper OS, etc. I usually use "sed" to edit files that big. As in when I was editing the 3GByte xml output needed for the results when I did my 9-flups.

Anyway, YMBAAI you edit 3Gbyte files.

PS. Install Cygwin and you get "sed".

God, so glad I'm not the only one who gets this... I also get phases where I look at a word and it just looks so...wrong and strange


agreed! and I wonder abot the roots and meanings and why THAT PARTICULAR WORD was chosen to name the object that it does. Like why are noses noses? It's a random word; do you know anything close to "nose" that makes sense? no...

well, i can't explain my thought process, but it is quite exhausting once I hit one of those moments..lol.


Well I end up like thinking about a word and saying it and then I end up goini over the sounds of it and so I become amazed how odd it acually sounds.

...you are determined to beat every one of the 1,000,000 levels of the computer card game Freecell - in order, from game number 1 - and are totally annoyed because while you are currently on game number 322, the little index card with number 169 written on it is staring at you, TAUNTING you, never letting you forget that so far you have encountered one level that you simply CANNOT BEAT!! !! !! !! !! ! :x

... If, on viewing the number 169, you go into your own world revising all possible factors of the number in spite the fact you can't concentrate on a single equation you're given in Maths class and absolutely detest the subject.

Oh yeah. This had my mind for hours once.
Circular.
Here's me going over and over in my head:
Circular... Circleuar... Cirluar... Circluar... <insert a good 10 more combinations here then repeat the process for the duration of the effect>

You're quite right. That's going to be a problem, isn't it. Luckily.I'm going to have an early night, so it won't bother me for much longer. Sorry if I've rather spoilt everyone else's evening. :)

...You start shouting when your housemate next door starts slamming wardrobe doors.
...You have to have all your things in neat little piles, yet don't clean for months
...You play the same song 8 times in a row and still want more of the elated sensation the notes give you.
...You start clapping your hands and stimming like mad when on the phone to someone
...You feel the urge to buy a new ps2 game every time you go out, even though you have 19 you haven't played yet. :lol:
...You go to the store and end up buying everything but the things you actually badly need.
...You leave little lists for yourself the night before you need to buy or do anything.

YMBAAI you're wondering if the total number of posts is approaching 1,000,000.
YMBAAI you would be interested in knowing the average number of edits per post.
YMBAAI you have started blocking all animated avatars (they're just too distracting).
