"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Ok, this problem is a little hard to explain, but basically I have a screen recorder that captures all desktop activity on my PC and then saves it as a video file.

It works great and captures everything on my desktop...everything except movies that are playing. If I'm recording my desktop and I have winmedia, VLC player and alike running a movie, that area shows up blank.

It's the same as if you try to capture a movie screen using the "prt scrn" key on your keyboard. The whole desktop is there, except the video footage.

I am working on some video tutorials on my PC where I need to capture a player running video footage on my desktop.

Is there any way I can get round this issue? Please!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Ah, I've managed to solve it now. I needed to turn off my hardware accelleration. No idea why, but it worked. :)
