A very annoying occurrence that I sometimes suffer is when all of a sudden the copy and paste function stops working when I am connected to a remote machine. Turns out the problem is coming from a little process called rdpclip. Rdpclip (remote desktop clipboard) is responsible for managing a shared clipboard between your local host and the remote desktop (the process runs on the remote machine not your local host).
So what do I do when clipboard stops working? Read the rest of this entry »

پچھلے بیس برس سے تو میں انہیں اسی طرح دیکھ رہا ہوں (معاف کیجیے گا دیکھ رہا تھا)۔

ایک عام سے پانچ فٹ چھ انچ کے نیم گنجے چھریرے ابراہیم بھائی۔نکڑ پر ایک رہائشی پلازہ کے ستون کی ایک جانب نکلا ہوا ایک فٹ گہرا، تین فٹ چوڑا، چھ ساڑھے چھ فٹ اونچا کیبن ابراہیم کی کل کائنات تھا۔ صبح نو سے رات بارہ تک کیبن کے فولڈنگ پھٹے کو میز بنا کے اس پر مسلسل پان لگاتے رہتے تھے۔نہ تھکن، نہ جھنجلاہٹ۔گرمی ہو کہ سردی، دوپہر ہو کہ شام میں نے کبھی ہاتھ رکتے نہیں دیکھا۔خدا جانے ان دو ہاتھوں میں کتنے ہاتھ تھے۔ Read the rest of this entry »

 
Recently I lost when I was unable to delete some post from my timeline and then I found that our activity log on our timeline serves many purposes.

You can use it to quickly hide old statuses you have made in the past, or delete them, you can also use it to Unhide statuses that you had previously hidden.
In addition, it shows you comments that you have made on other peoples’ stories/statuses/pictures and will allow you to delete those too, all in one convenient place.

To get there, go to your Timeline, and click on Activity Log.

That will open the activity log, and then you can scroll down to where that story is (or use the date links at the bottom) to find the post/story you want to hide or unhide. Look at the icons in the far right to see which ones are hidden and which ones are visible.

You can then click on the little circle/crossed out circle to select if you want it hidden or not.

If you “Feature” a story, it will take the full width of your timeline, so as to draw attention to that item. Think of it like “this one is important”.

Winodws 7 includes many new keyboard accelerator keys that make it easier to work with menus and other commands.
Normally, the keyboard shortcuts to activate the command are listed along with command in the programs’ menus (typically a letter is underlined to indicate that it can be activated by pressing the combination of Alt key with the underlined key). Some are not listed and hidden though.

Here’s the full list of Windows 7 keyboard shortcuts or accelerator hotkeys available on the operating system level and also for several built-in application programs in Windows 7, as published by Microsoft. Read the rest of this entry »
