Nice game. I remember playing it some time ago, and quitting because of boredom once getting in the high (30+) levels. I think it was one of the first "little" games using html5 instead of flash. I see that they've introduced

Those are mine: * Firefox Sync. As I use Firefox on my desktop, it's nice to keep them synched. * Addons. I know this might sound stupid on a phone, but having lastpass autofill your passwords on-the-go is awesome. * Interface. I reall

$349/$399 isn't the price before taxes? I'm not American so I'm not sure, but I think prices in America are always listed before taxes, while they're listed after taxes in Europe. This makes it still cheaper in the

Funny how your first and last negative points are my positive points about Firefox. 1) I really want to like Chrome, but I find the UI pretty bad. Yes, it's fine when you have 5/10 tabs open, but try to open more and you'll s

I'm using https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search It emulates the Fish behavior (which is just awesome). I'm not sure if it requires oh-my-zsh, but I think it doesn't.

I could say the save for the reverse. I don't get at all why people want phones with a small screen. Typing get hard, I have to zoom & pan to see a website, watching videos/photos on a small screen is not nice at all... It&#x2

I own a Nexus 7 (2012), which sadly doesn't have HDMI output, otherwise I would happily use it. I could use it to easily watch movies/shows on my TV, without having to resort to a computer (not everyone has an HTPC behind their TV

That's cool. I find the real-time typing quite annoying, mostly because if two or more people talk at the same time, messages that aren't completed yet get pushed to the bottom. I think it might get really messy if a lot of people

On your second link, that's a quite old (almost two years, if I'm not wrong) benchmark. Unigine is now supposed to run on the free drivers, see http://www.gearsongallium.com/?p=752

I "use" it, as a link aggregator. I find it's a nice way to discover new music, for example. The noise-to-signal ratio is just too high for making me want to contribute, or even read a lot of comments. There are good contribu

From what I've read online, SSD now should last the same, if not more than HDD. The nice thing about them is that you know how many writes they should handle, and get a new one before some disaster happen. Sure, you can get a faulty un
