Tabs in the browser

hmm.

Why do we need tabs? I guess why not, but you can only look at 1 screen at a time anyway, so why have them?

..... you serious?MBirdy88

I just opened this nonsense thread in a tab.

Exactly that.  Much easier and quicker to just click between tabs, if you don't want to keep opening/closing web pages.

The topic is titled Tabs in the BROWSER. You can open your web browser and work on a word document. But there is only 1 page open for the music.fnevaeva

It's a test for adhd

i have 30 tabs open

I guess I failed

Because your web browser is a seperate application apart from Word used for other needs. Do you listen to multiple songs at the same time?fnevaeva

Sounds are seperate from a compilation of sounds which make a song. Your trying to twist my point. But it stands.fnevaeva

You get less accomplished multi-tasking because you don't focus on one thing and is slower=failfnevaeva

If you do too many things at once, it takes longer to complete all those projects. Similar to a cpu, if you have to many things running at the same time, those programs run slower and your cpu isn't as effective. If you want to read through your mail, you don't watch tv, do sit-ups, play your games, and work on your homework at the same time do you? No, you focus on one thing, get it done, and move on to the next thing. It's a simple concept that you guys don't seem to understand. Einstein said "Make things as simple as you can, but no simpler". fnevaeva

(I don't know if ur trolling or not.)

If not, I am wondering how the hell you don't get run over by a car when you cross the road.

So all your life you've only done one thing at a time?

How the hell do you maintain a job even?

- I'm at work doing stuff and thinking about what to cook tonight

- I can be listening to music while doing push-ups

- I can be writing RIGHT NOW on this forum while music is playing and I have a file downloading.

Your sentence of "If you do too many things at once, it takes longer to complete all those projects." might apply to YOU cause you can't multi-task, but not to other people who can do it effectively.

And the CPU analogy? OMFG..... CPUs are meant for doing lots of things at once...why do you think they are multicore?

Do the TIME TEST I gave before and come back here and admit you are wrong.

This is so dumb.  Seriously, why troll PC games. Go back to system wars or OT where trolling is expected

Are you dumb? Don't you even know what multitasking means?

.

It still renders the cpu and makes it less effective on cpu heavy programs. Even if you have a multi-core cpu, it still wares on it. And, ADHD is actually your lack of ability to focus, which means doing multiple things at once makes it even harder and slower to accomplish things. I actually have ADHD, but I do believe that if we focus on something, we tend to Hyperfocus on that one thing and venture into the depths of our mind in which people without adhd can't. Not saying that everyone without adhd isn't capable of doing this. But there tends to be more people who can hyperfocus who have ADHD (which recently they changed the medical term to only ADHD to stand for both ADD and ADHD instead of have both seperate)fnevaeva

Well, you might suffer from that but I personally don't. 

I can do one thing and accomplish that one thing at 100%, and I also can do 5 things at a time and accomplish them at 100%. (I'm in IT, I'm used to it).

Hopefully you can learn to do various things at once, it does wonders with deadlines.

This. Trolling should be limited so SW and OT.

This thread has nothing to do with games.O_o

is this the internets? where is tubes???

There's a point to what the OP said, that multitasking doesn't always lead to "more stuff done faster". We don't actually do two or more things at once, but we do shift our focus from one to another pretty fast that it almost seems we're doing both at the same time. But as others have said, you can use multiple tabs to stream music and read something or whatever. It also looks nicer than multiple browser windows and I think for me it's faster to switch tabs compared to windows.

TC is stupid
