DSL or dial up

As nostalgic as modem noise may be for me, I'll have to go with DSL.

GUI or command-line?

There can be no such choice. Many of today's GUIs come with controls that issue console-level commands. A GUI client to a middle-tier command-line driven system to a database is quite common.

But if I were to interpret your question as "GUI only" vs. "command line" only operations on everything I needed to do, I would grab my Wilson soccer ball and head for the nearest deserted island (with plenty of batteries, of course!).

Vibrato or tremolo?

I meant, which do you like better? And vibrato.

Soloist or rhythm section?

Okay, this thread is after all titled "choices", so I chose GUI.

And rhythm section.

Drums or bass?

Bass.


Drum 'n' bass or jazz?

Jazz.

Doom or Doom II?

Doom.

Commander Keen or Jazz Jackrabbit?

Commander Keen.

Ron Gilbert or Tim Schafer

Tim Schafer

Tim Schafer or Will Wright?

Tim

Earbuds or headphones?

Ron Gilbert. Earbuds.

Canada or USA?

The Great Usa

Contacts or eyeglasses?

This is a hard one. I spent several years using both, and ultimately, I just gave up and got laser eye surgery instead.

Christianity or Islam?

neither (I'm agnostic)


Pizza or burritos? (I love food)

Mmmm, chicken pesto pizza--halve a cheesy garlic round bread, slather on the pesto, add chicken pieces (cooked in butter and sherry) and top with feta. Pop in the oven (350 F) for about 20 minutes. True love. :9~

Time or Newsweek? Or some other news mag?

The Economist

Cell phone on or off at night?

On, but not in the bedroom! I'm too lazy to turn it off, but I have had a few sleepless nights because of an SMS late at night.

Cell phone on or off during parties?

I keep mine on in case of emergencies, but that's because no one ever phones me unless it's practically an emergency. So I'd generally recommend off or silent mode if it's a small intimate gathering. (If it's a loud party, then no one will be able to hear anything anyway...)

One word or a lengthy paragraph?

That depends on the circumstances. During meetings, one word often saves a lot of time. But sometimes a lengthy paragraph is good if details are needed.

Talk about stating the obvious :)


I'll stay with the cell phones for now: SMS or short call?

SMS

Living not far from a sea or living in a large land-locked area?

Living near the sea. Always have and always will.

Money or fame?

Money...and the reason is I would want to take of my church. My church has only been around for about 70 years and some of the older members are passing away. Since they are passing their large donations are going away as well, so I would want money to take care of my church.

More or Less hours in the day

It sort of depends if the activities in the day extend proportionately (i.e. I have to spend more time at work) I'm not sure that I'd be happy with more in that case. Despite that, I still think I'd go for more overall. There never seems enough time to do everything.

Deep and thoughtful choices or random and silly choices?

Deep and thoughtful

Car headlights on or off during a sunny day?

My, what deep and thoughtful choices! :shifty:

That said, my car, being made after 1990, has daytime running lights, so it's on no matter what.

Real numbers or imaginary numbers?

Real Numbers. Imaginary ones are just too complicated.

Blue or Green.

Green, olive green in fact.

French or Itailian?

Italian ( I am thinking of food here). :P

Summer or winter?

Summer with lots of sun.

Flower garden or vegetable garden?

Vegetable garden. Good for when the apocalypse strikes. ;)

Donkey Kong or King Kong?

Donkey Kong. I had so much fun with him in the 1980s.

FPS or adventure game?

FPS.

Story-driven FPS or story-lacking adventure game?

Story-lacking AG :D

Cauliflower or endive?

Cauliflower. I'm never sure what an endive is and I don't eat things I'm unsure about.

Detailed explanation of choice or just your selection.

Explanation, unless I'm really hungery, in which case grunting and pointing is appropriate.

Northern or Southern hemisphere?

The party's up here on the north side.

Luxury or sports car?

Hybrid. Waffles or pancakes?

Waffles hold more goodness.

Commute: bike or bus?

Bus. I won't come to work sweaty and I get a chance to read.

CG or puppet creatures in live-action movies?
