progress bar - why???
-
You may not. Because as you see from the picture in my link, the LED is situated right somewhere in between the internal air suction valve and I cannot put a tape or anything on there. I was even thinking of opening it up and cutting the wire that supplies power to the LED, but that would have voided my warranty. Either ways, it was a stupid thing that they've designed. I can accept a led on a tv or even a blender, but this thing has to stay on while I may sleep and I couldn't accept it illuminating the whole room.

Hey! Our customer wants a progress bar for the transmission of messages (which is done by the services on the server...). Why do people need progress bars? don't they believe the computer is actually working? I start to hate this stuff. Why do people need indicators for a device running when it is obvious? My wife got a new computer (Dell AllinOne 23") which has a giant, annoying blue light on the power supply plug. My computer has a LED at the WLAN-Device on the backside of the machine. WTF - who cares for a light on the backside of the computer under the table? My NAS is blinking like lightning when one of us is accessing some data. Why? No one even sees this as the NAS is standing in the basement. The light is totally annoying - I don't need to switch lights on in the basement when the NAS is running. My TV has a LED to show that it's on. It usually shows the TV-program too when it's on - so why does it need a light indicating that it's on? My toaster got a LED to show it's on. My mixer has a light to show it's on. Even the fridge has a LED. I'm actually waiting for a lamp with a LED indicating that it's on.

Some indicator of something happening is required to keep my wife people from clicking and clicking and clicking and clicking and clicking and clicking and clicking. . .
Just like that old Carly Simon song... "You're so funny, You probably think this joke is about you" My Mu[sic] My Films My Windows Programs, etc.

How so? By definition, a progress indicator is anything that makes it obvious something is happening. So how is it "obvious" to your customer that messages are being transmitted?

But if the screen was broken (as in not working rather than smashed) and there was no LED you wouldn't know if there was just a power problem or if you needed to throw a beer bottle through it.

What happens when the LED isn't working? An LED LED? :~

Is it just me who has to have the volume on an even number?

Isn't that so both ears get the same volume level :laugh:

Yeah, I can cope with 5s too. Acceptable numbers for volume are 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 25 28 30 32 35 38 and so on. My missus only accepts even numbers so we have a battle of wills over the mid 20s. Erm, how do you spell OCD again?

The radio in my car increments and decrements volume only in steps of 2. I couldn't set a volume of 35 even if i wanted to. Now where is the sense in that? :doh: I think if I ever get to implement a digital volume control I'll only allow primes... ;P
