Meteors

I saw 4 Geminids last night. I stopped on the way back from the house to the garage for about 5 minutes, saw one almost immediately then nothing for 5 minutes.
This morning before work I watched for another 3 or 4 minutes, saw one about 20 seconds in an another a minute later.
I saw the 4th while driving to work, near the southern horizon and bright enough to attract my attention.
All were perfectly Gemini radiant.

The Curmudgeon's Windows

OK, I put up with it for a long time, but finally I gave up. There was simply no time that I ever actually wanted the Modern(/Metro) interface or apps - they're only there to irritate and obstruct me.

I installed Classic Shell on my Windows 8 box at work. It actually lets you pick classic, XP or 7/Vista look. It still doesn't get rid of the Fscking ribbon on Win8 explorer.

What I was ACTUALLY doing this morning was trying to figure out a way to treat every folder the same. Windows has long had this "feature" where if you go into a folder with music in it, for instance, it switches to a column set where it shows the MP3 tags as columns rather than size/date modified/etc. Attention Microsoft: Explorer is NOT iTunes or WinAMP. I'm browsing a filesystem, please give me filesystem information. If I want to browse the files as music, I will start a music browsing app.

I still haven't found how to make it do this. I know I could just go in and customize the column view for this file type but that would take a lot of time and I'd have to go through that process for every PC. I was hoping to find where it stores the file view types and just delete them all, forcing it to use the default view for everything.
