<p>ya…I went off too…
Neway, I m annoyd by all this WC cheers for India…they r simply exaggarating…</p>
<p>and this is my 600th post on TiT…!!!..</p>
<p>No thanks, I’ll stick to manual refreshes. :)</p>
<p>P.S.: There’s already an option on firefox to do that, isn’t there?</p>
<p>I’d want one for the 29th, Lakshya, but I’d have nothing to do with my hands and I’d go mad.</p>
<p>I shall be departing soon.</p>
<p>I still can’t believe I got into Oberlin :D</p>
<p>I was just wondering…whether all these ‘‘Download managers’’ really speed up the download?..if yes, HOW??..</p>
<p>So, what’s your top choice Kriti? (Besides Oberlin)</p>
<p>And I cant ‘‘refresh’’ page here…coz evry time I do that, I will hav to login…</p>
<p>@issac: Well, in short, they don’t.</p>
<p>issac, download managers usually segment the download (viz. download simultaneously from two or three different loci in the file). Plus, they’re an advantage when you’re doing huge downloads – even if the download breaks, you can (usually) resume.</p>
<p>I’ve been toying with the idea of a refresh script (:D), but I’m not going to use it. Manual refreshing is more fun anyway. (Plus, my hands, like Kriti’s, need stuff to do.)</p>
<p>DAMN IT MIT RELEASE THE DECISIONS ALREADY.</p>
<p>Ah we’ve got a full complement now… :)</p>
<p>Well, I know that they segment them…but this does not increases speed as they predicate…</p>
<p>I don’t know why they don’t just put them all up, as soon as they make their decisions. </p>
<p>Irritating</p>
<p>@issac: It wouldn’t. Ultimately it depends on your connection speed. If that’s not fast enough. There’s nothing much you can do.</p>
<p>Colgate, Vassar, Hamilton. Amherst and Williams too, but I don’t have a chance of getting in.</p>
<p>Y’know, I got accepted early. I just realised.</p>
<p>Sorry, I don’t mean to brag. I’m just so thrilled :D. I really WAS paranoid.</p>
<p>Ah, then the importance of a day like today will b ruind…</p>
<p>Ah well paranoia pays off then…</p>
<p>There should be some sort of scale. The amount you care about going to a university should influence your decision.</p>
<p>(But then everybody who applies to MIT would have to get in. :))</p>
<p>Yeah. My use of a download manager is mostly to stabilise things – my connection pops out pretty frequently, and I hate losing half-done downloads (especially really large ones). </p>
<p>I’m absolutely terrified re. MIT. It’s a good thing none of you can see me right now, I’m a bit of a wreck.</p>
<p>Importance, Shrimportance, forsooth!</p>
<p>I like forsooth, and methinks, and other antiquated relics of the middle ages. (must be my inner Galahad. :))</p>
<p>Well, it does reflect in the amount of effort you put in your app. I wrote a poem about how much I loved Oberlin. I also put a lot of research into my “Why Oberlin?” essay.</p>
<p>I quite like this post on the MIT forum:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Appropriate</p>
<p>And yet again, I make this statement on purpose…I HATE YOUTUBE…This month I hav reachd my download limit just now…sheesh…</p>
