Whether it's a pain or not depends on how you have the domains setup. If you use Digital Ocean and Dreamhost for your DNS, it won't be a problem at all, you just transfer and it copies the correct DNS with the transfer. If you are

I love the added incentive to move. With domains, it's so easy to just stick with the status quo since you only have to think about it at max once a year, and transferring is actually a bit of a PITA.

Whenever I read a story like this (there have been dozens lately), I simply don't have the background to determine how big of a problem this is going to be. Are these bugs antibiotic resistant just to current antibiotics? Is the only r

I'm a big fan of BufferBox, so I hope SwapBox brings even more to the table. I find it especially useful when ordering anything that ships via UPS/Fedex since they mostly try to deliver during the day and if you're not home t

Props to his co-anchor on this one. I think if I was doing the news with Ron Burgundy, I'd have a hard time not bursting out laughing...

Wow, that was really interesting. Such a simple idea in concept, but it took a while to find the perfect material with the right type of properties to actually be able to build "things" with. I wonder how long before bacteria will

No one is forcing them to apply though. Your point would be totally valid if they were tricking people into thinking it was going to be better than it is, but they are totally transparent. You could almost make the exact same argument about

Personally, that job is not for me, but I don't see the harm in "shooting for the moon" in a job description if they think they can get a candidate that matches the criteria. Why wouldn't you try to get someone overquali

Yeah, this issue actually drives me crazy. I liked using Google+ as sort of a blogging platform, and I constantly linked to a lot of videos from youtube. (I've never had a youtube account, never posted a comment). So, the other day, I

To be honest, your issue number one is basically how I think the site is supposed to work in the first place. It didn't take very long (even before the Digg influx) for the default subreddits to become just a sea of people where any di

Also, consider the advantage that AMC has in a dedicated sales team going hard after advertisers on the merits of buying a spot during the breaking bad finale. If youtube worked in a similar way, I bet you would get higher CPM by virtue of

They also offer pro accounts too for ~$25 a year, which I would imagine is fairly useful if you are a heavy user of their service. For example, since the pro account as no inactivity pruning, I bet you could setup a photography website that

That was actually a really interesting article. I think it really helps that they were able to come up with a really good set of ads that worked perfectly with the audience on the adult websites. That's always the goal, but execution i

This solution has 2 issues though that kind of drive me crazy. 1) It won't sync the truecrypt volume while it's open (cause the file is in use), so if you want to encrypt stuff you work on regularly, you have to close the truecryp

Less talk and more publishing. The longer they discuss just how great the additional documents are going to be, the more time the NSA/USA has time to try convince the guardian not to publish...

I've never bought a used game myself, or sold one, but there have been probably hundreds of times over the life of my Xbox 360 where I've visited with friends and family and brought a good game along with me. Especially, more soci

Only thing I can think of is pressure from publishers. Maybe the publishers offered them more exclusives in exchange for the DRM?

Agreed, that's easily 50% or more of what I used google talk for. It was a way of knowing when people were back at their desk and could be reached to discuss something. This new solution is more like SMS messaging, where you send off a mess

Yeah, perhaps something like a domain report card highlighting any problems their system has currently flagged for it and linking to solutions. Would be useful even on domains you've owned for a long time, just to help determine if there ar

I agree that he has to go, but I disagree that us being active will have little affect. Due directly to complaints, we killed off the first 2 versions of their copyright change bills and their attempt to implement warrant-less wire-tapping.

Wow, I can't believe they are still going forward with this. Hopefully Canadians continue to speak up on Copyright issues, and make sure unpopular bills remain so for a reason...
