    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    That might be true. However, one could ask who this another might be. I couldn't imagine that someone would dig through all the junk that I've posted on the net. In that case, I would be more flattered than offended :)

    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    It is? I can't even find status updates that I made a year ago and that I'm really trying to find.

    Bug Forum Rules Link Not Working

    Yay! I like how the forum rules are a bit strict on this forum. It feels like you are a bit limited sometimes, but on the other hand, you don't get all these tiresome threads that are abundant on other forums.

    Stay Up to Date with Good Biology Podcasts

    Yes, when it comes to biology, I really like "This Week In Virology" and "This Week In Parasitism". They are really, really well done, and if I only had some basic knowledge of the fields, I'm sure I could appreciate them for real :)

    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    What would happen if you sat a goal? No Facebook for a week. Could you do it? Try it out.

    Can love and friendship replace money?

    Absolutely. I think that you can be more happy if you already have friends and love, and add money. However, if you only have money, you probably won't be more happy if you get friends and love. You'll rather start being happy.

    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    kntsy; Tell me. Why can't you clean up your profile (given that you actually think that would be a good idea for you, as you seem to suggest)? Please, tell me :)

    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    I think you're right here. Facebook is not the problem. It's the urge to avoid or not start doing that other, more important activity that is the real problem. Remove Facebook and something else will probably just take its place (as I said, for me, it's now this forum).

    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    How can you be so sure of this? Today, facebook is often used to invite several people to events at once. You could miss out on these invitations.

    How to stop wasting a lot of time on facebook?

    For me, the only thing I really need Facebook for, is to get to know about upcoming events my friends are hosting, since most of them use Facebook to invite a lot of people to any specific activity, and to get hold of photos my friend uploads. Like you, I've been spending my time there for no...

    When I click on the "rules" tab at the top of the forum, I just get transported to a page (https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=5374) saying: "No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator" (I did contact an administrator but the link is still...

    Medical Difference between EEG, EMG, EOG and EKG?

    Thank you for your answers everybody. I guess this is more a linguistic question than a technical. What would happen if I stuck some electrodes to my foot. What would I be doing then? Skin conductance measures? Or would I have to invent a new name? EFG (Electrofootography)?

    Can love and friendship replace money?

    Without having read the thread: I think that the appeal in making money comes from the fact that we think that that will get us love and friendship, which among other things, come about from rising in social rank.

    Have You Watched "Avatar" Yet? It's AMAZING!

    Avatar...What can I say? One of the most overrated movies ever. I mean...This film is so extremely bad that I don't even know where to begin. I'll let Spoony do the talking for me. I agree with him on pretty much every single point, and that's just the beginning of all the crap I could give...
