   There are two ways current hardware makers are beating piracy, increasing hardware complexity and value-added services. A lot of people are complaining about the Vita's proprietary memory cards, but I wouldn't be surprised if that move was

   I always question the use of Skype. It's great for video chat, but it requires somebody to call and somebody to host, and it gets real nasty when you need to get work done and just want to talk for like two minutes. I recommend getting up a

   I voted for "I don't have domains at GoDaddy" since I moved from GoDaddy years ago before all this mess.

   I definitely moved mine from them long before this incident and many others. Yet I am still outraged. "I once used them before!"

   The problem with Amazon is that you become very, very aware of the items not on Amazon. I recently got an Amazon gift card and realized that I can't get an iPhone.

   Grocery store giftcards aren't really for presents, they're more for situations like parents ensuring a college student is spending money on food.

   As an online store that sells T-Shirts, Google Checkout accounts for roughly 5% of all orders, but a very vocal minority that really, really hate Paypal and likes to click any option that guarantees they don't use Paypal.

   I wish the J.TV app was free. I would love to do wireless recording!

   This is a solution looking for a problem. I know my Google Analytics aren't 100% correct, but I don't think people are spoofing them. The differences lie more in people who click through faster than GA can load (which can be easily possible

    As someone who ships items daily with the postal service, the cube is not necessary. Yes, you have to pay extra for the "package rate" to get delivery confirmation, but you don't actually have to add extra items to make it a package. This i

    Maybe it would behoove them to use the "x.com" branding for login?

    I thought I was slowly going insane trying to find the "All Documents in My Company" feature of Google Docs. Glad to know I'm not the only one desperately missing it.

    I'm with BofA simply because they have branches everywhere. I was in a situation where I needed to deposit checks in six wildly separated cities.

    I think the classic will die when you can fit 256GB into an iPod Touch, either through flash memory or a thicker hard drive version. Otherwise the iPod Classic still sells to those that _HAVE_ to have 200+ GB of music with them at all times

    I saw your talk on Rails at RailsConf and how to lower the stack depth of the middleware by using a standard interface. How's the progress? From someone who hasn't helped out Rails before and would like to, what can I do?

    My Wii's disc drive is in the process of dying, and I doubt I will get a replacement after it kicks the bucket. I rip legitimate games that I own and use a USB hard drive addon to play them from. (Bonus: less loading time)

    Yes, but "bring your own" solves a lot of Apple's support problems related to sole exclusivity on old and insecure JVMs.

    I've had nothing but great experiences from the Justin.tv/Twitch.tv team regarding their tech. NASL and Dreamhack both just had fairly crappy streaming setups and equipment, in my opinion.

    Thanks! We use Square to handle credit card payments for conventions, but it's quite annoying to swap between an in-house iPad webapp that handles inventory, receipt printing, and sending the order data to a master database. Allowing simple

    Does anybody know how programmable their POS is? (ie. if there's a sale, is there a webhook that can be called?)

    Actually I wouldn't be surprised to find Norton on a Genius Bar Mac, mostly because an anti-virus is required for PCI compliance to handle credit cards.

    I think part of the reason why there is such a "user revolt" (opposed to a tech or developer only revolt) is the prospect of functionality of current apps such as Amazon Kindle or Netflix or Hulu will go away, and that Apple hasn't provid

    It's one thing if Apple provides a competing service to Netflix, Hulu, Rhapsody, et al. (And may be accused on monopolism.) The thing that boils my britches about this is that Apple DOESN'T have a competing service. When the services leav

    That was two years ago and it's not worth the effort. It's better just to explain the moral of my story when Paypal vs. Google Checkout debates occur: Paypal at least has a phone line.

    Except that Google's forums don't help when Google locked five figures from you on a spiky day, continues to accept money with no way to withdraw, provides no telephone support, and offers only an (apparently overloaded) email support. (Eve
