It could be that you are coming to your coffee with preconceived notions as to its quality. I wonder what a blind tasting between Starbucks and your favorite coffee would tell us.

One of the reasons I enjoy iTunes is that I'm not big into organizing my music and playlists-- iTunes does it for me. Will VLC move my music into an organized directory and let me play an album, or shuffle through all songs from an artis

I'd call Apple products "hot-house orchids" except that orchids like it hot and humid. I once had to return a Nano that had water damage-- except that I hadn't gotten it wet. The support bob on the phone said it could be water damaged by k

We have heard all of this before. With cdroms, interactive television, and the World Wide Web supposedly supplanting books. Perhaps the sea change has come, but that change is too late for me. I prefer the immersive quality of hundreds

I'll grant you that. Of course there was a price to pay. The FAQ had to be maintained, sometimes meta-discussions about the FAQ ate up more time and bandwidth than just simply fnord answering the questions, and sometimes the FAQ was used

by KC8ZKF 17y ago
It is my recollection that FAQs were a product of Usenet, where there really were frequently asked questions. The salty dogs who ran the group would get sick of seeing the same questions over and over, so they would compile them all in an

I've been in parts of the world where I had to order bottled water, not for the taste, but because bottled water contains slightly fewer Escherichia coli than the local supply. Ice was out. Demonstrably pure ice sounds like a good idea.

As opposed to what? Thinking their batteries will last forever?

by KC8ZKF 17y ago
This makes complete sense, and I thought this is the way battery replacement for iPods and iPhones always worked. Note you do not get a new iPad. You get a refurbished iPad of the same model. Your iPad then is refurbished and sent to a

I don't have Garamond at all. Perhaps the author should have used a PDF/X-n.

When I view the PDF from the article, the LaTeX portion is broken. Every "ff" shows as a large "V", and there are no small caps.

The built-in Lisp mode for editing and the inferior-lisp mode REPL give you 80 percent of SLIME without the installation pain.
