I used Winamp since the beginning but lately when i was browsing online on Google Chrome music was stuttering and computer so slow it felt like forever. Even mouse cursor was moving like i had 486 processor with Win8 and not the i7.
First I blamed Chrome, because Winamp was with me all the time. Then i blamed antivirus. In the end I even reinstalled audio drivers... then it came to my mind - how about trying to play the music in a different player?
Well... the result is so obvious that I feel ashamed it took me so long to find the culprit.
Because Winamp is now deader than dead (yeah "coming soon" like for several years already) I decided to switch to a different music player.
maybe will come back later with what I have chosen instead of Winamp.
UPDATE 26.5. I switched to MusicBee and have to say I am quite satisfied.

Locks & Other protections
I recently read a wonderful sentence about home security:
"All these locks and alarms you have installed at your doorstep are here to protect you from decent people. For the villains this is no obstacle at all."
In the Czech language we have a proverb: "Opportunity makes the thief."

Effectivity at work
Love working for multinational corporations...
Me to client on Tuesday: The DVDs will be delivered on Wednesday.
Client (on Thursday): Where are the DVDs? We have nothing here and I need them in half an hour!
Me to Design Studio: Hi, client calls me where are the dvds.
Design Studio to Printing house: Hey, the DVDs should be there yesterday, where is it?
Printing house to PPL: Hey, where are the DVDs?
PPL to printing House: We have delivered it on Wednesday on 12:39, the person was not available so we have left it at the company.
Printing house to Design studio: PPL says it is already there for a day?
Design studio to me: They had it delivered on time.
Me to client: So the DVDs are in your company since yesterday, PPL said they left it somewhere.
Client: Really great job, thank you for your effor I have nothing :o(
Me to client: Should I call to your reception and ask where they have put it?
15 minutes of silence
Client to me: Reception is not allowed to take over anything so they have left it at our storeroom.
Me to client: Great news, so you have finally your dvds! I am apologising for any troubles caused by the PPL but they could have not reached you.
Moral of this story? How about ask at the reception first, when it is like in YOUR building? :oD But lets keep the people work! Why make it simple when you have your agency, your design studio, your printing house, your parcel logistic and they can ask for you, right.
