Has anyone suggested the feature of being able to create plugins for Sledge?
I'm thinking something like Photoshop actions, designing plugins which do special things that would otherwise require lots of time.

Autumn came. The leaves of the trees didn't yet catch that beautiful golden color, as it was just the beginning of September. The sun lost some of its power to caress the skin with its gentle rays.
Today, the sun didn't even show up. It was raining... the atmosphere soaked wet.
Brian Banister was watching through his dirty apartment window the birds as they disappeared on the horizon. He held his old pen with his right hand, sketching in the air unrecognizable words. He loved his pen, it was a gift from his father. In front of him, on a brown desk made of massive wood, stood a white sheet of paper. It was blank. Brian felt like an entire tub of lead was balancing on his soul. The delicate movements of his hand changed into contorting motions. He began to feel furious.

Well for some time I wanted to get my abs to look better. I took the Ab workout A6W from the Play store. It helps you make exercises for a flat stomach. The first day is supposed to be the easiest, it only takes 5 minutes.

Half-way going through, I thought I was going to break in half.
I was strict paleo (besides supplements) for 5 months to look good for the summer. I would guess around 7-8% body fat. Right now, I am eating a ridiculous amount of calories a day to get huge just to starve myself again next summer.
Mariowned, please elaborate on this. I've read a bit along the subject of the paleo diet, even downloaded a book but never got into the details. Does going paleo mean you can't have milk? I love milk! (yeah, I've read that gluten and lactose is some bad stuff but I'm not that allergic to stuff- not even dry hay).
Also, how would I figure out how much body fat I have without using specialized tools?

I usually eat very spicy things, and with each soup a hot pepper. Hot peppers be burnin' the fat.

On the subject of smoking - I started with a cigar-type cigarette(think for a bit). But as I already read on the internet how to smoke, my first ever breath of smoke was done professionally. The only unprofessional part was the incredible dizziness that followed.

Captain Yerror! I believe contests should have some restrictions that underline each contestant's creativity. In this case though, I think the contest is more about producing funny results, or inspirational ones.
Music taste is so diverse that limiting the options to a few songs could reduce the number of applicants.

I've had my hands for a day on a Galaxy Tab2. It works and looks great. Sadly, I can't afford it.

DiscoStu, a tablet is much more than it's advertised. They're meant for regular consumers but with all those sensors and their versatility power they can be used in fun and creative ways. I'd even delve into developing Android applications.
Also, if you can get a way to rip DVD's to an .avi (or similar) file, or perhaps use some other popular way to get movies in that format, then it is excellent for watching movies or TV shows while commuting.
Yeah I'd use Format Factory or Handbrake for that.

Newly added in the category of "shit I don't need, but imma buy anyway" is the tablet.

After buying a budget price 10" tablet and seeing the horrible quality( performance-wise it was excellent, but battery life and screen were appaling) I began being more skeptical. The thing is, for the amount of time I've used it, I thought it was pretty useful in "consuming" stuff from the web. It could even help me relax more as I can go earlier to bed, and even if I don't fall asleep at least laying in the bed is better than standing on a chair for 2 more hours. After 2 days the tablet's screen got broken so I sent it to the service. I requested the money back because I don't need that crap anymore.

Now after doing some research people recommended me the Asus Memo Pad HD 7. It's not top notch quality, and only 7 inch, but it has an IPS screen, good performance and most importantly, 10 hours of battery life. I guess it would be perfect for my commutes. The only thing I'm concerned about is the screen size. I realize now that 10inch is a bit big for public places, but isn't 7 inch too small to view videos? For reading it must be ok.

I wouldn't have posted this thread if I wasn't having 2 options. If the tablet was the only thing I wished to buy, I'd go for it, or maybe wait for a 10". But for a lot of time I wanted to buy an SSD for my notebook, and this is the alternative to the tablet: 128Gb 2.5 inch Samsung 840 Pro Series. The thing is, a notebook is much larger and heavier than a tablet, and I only use it when traveling by train. I rarely carry it with me otherwise.

So I have 2 questions.

1. Do you have a tablet, and if yes, what has it helped you with most?
2. Is it worth spending the money for making my laptop speedier?( and possibly increasing battery life by a few tens of minutes)
