    Just think of us poor people from time to time who don't have to wait for compiles and are called out for wasting time online. :P[/quote]

    Well that's a shame that you don't have slow Internet there in Norway in order you could think on doing something else while waiting for pages to load :P

          I code. Often times I have a new feature to try out on the new set of compiled libraries, makes the whole thing like an adventure. :) Keeps me busy as well.

              I usually do some browsing, chatting and tea drinking. However, ever since "XKCD did a comic on compiling":http://xkcd.com/303/, I've been wanting to do swords practice during compiling...

                  Drink tea, irc, QtDN, work on another project or branch, help colleagues, fix sys admin issues, emails, drink more tea... ;-)
