Annoying! Google Chrome’s “Google Translate”

 FAIL!google-chrome-logo

 

Some of you already did notice it. Google has a nice extension called “Google Translate”.

Well…. they forgot to add an OFF  off-button  button to it.

 

Every time you get to a web page it will ask you if you want it translated. Every time!

 

Sure.. you can turn off translating for that page..  or for that language..  but a general OFF button doesn’t exists!

UNINSTALL it!   Right… the way Google works with extensions.. that is hard to do..

They don’t give each installed extension a normal name, but call it like “asdhtrwjfkgfsdfjdf” and more like that..

 

You should have the freedom to turn it off if you want..

or… should I use my freedom to change browser?

Google friend connect & WordPress

Google Friend Connect

Google Friend Connect is Google’s way for connecting blogs and visitors and using the Google Friend Connect integration plugin for WordPress you can add more social interaction to your blog.

 

BUT..

 

There always is a but..

The plugin will not work under WordPress, unless add the following:

 

<script>
window.JSON = {
parse: function(st){
   return st.evalJSON();
},
stringify: function(obj){
   return Object.toJSON(obj);
}
};
</script>

 

This is because a JavaScript error and Google Friend Connect should work after you add this code before the gadget code in WordPress.

Weird problem, need help: 2nd monitor goes dark after Windows session is unlocked

QuestionI have this weird problem.

 

I use a 2nd monitor to extend my desktop. When I walk away from my computer, I lock my Windows session. After I return and unlock my Windows session my 2nd monitor goes dark.

 

 

display settings

 

I tried to enable my 2nd monitor under display settings, but it goes dark again. Only a reboot will fix this, until next lock/unlock.

 

What is going on?

How to fix this?
