I don't know how people do it -- I mean, I can cook and sometimes it is delicious, but it's nothing worst than waisting 2 hours on something and then at the end to find out that I blew the dish for some reason. I also cannot eat the same f

It's likely they have been working on a fix "just in case" even before the ruling was delivered.

I don't mind the subversive TV advertisements - the can of coke in the bedroom, or the kid playing Xbox while their parents try to talk to them. What's really irritating is when the show comes to a complete halt for what amounts to a produ

Suggestion for FB (in case anyone's listening): The privacy setting for "Your status, photos, and posts" is overloaded, as it means two things: 1. The default privacy state for new content posted to your wall 2. The privacy state for acces

Probably the only way to really make ad-supported gameplay a reality would be to flip the model up-side down: Design the game around the ad itself. We've seen a few of these (the Burger King Xbox games come to mind). Some of them are actua

Check http://slickdeals.net . Occasionally someone will find a store with more stock. It's rumored that HP will have more in about a month, and/or we'll see these again around Black Friday (post-Thanksgiving sales in the U.S.).

Perhaps I was unfair - that's just my perspective of the current state of affairs. I've used some HP printers and some non-HP printers in the last few years, and the HP ones did nothing to stand out of the pack. I guess what I mean to say

What sort of stuff are they doing now? In the consumer's eye, they make mediocre printers and PCs. In my university days I happily used a HP calculator and scope, in addition to HPUX. Are those businesses still going strong?

Sorry for the morbid curiousity, but can you share any stories of "successes"?

I wonder how productive you could be if you ran linux with no window manager (just screen). Sure, you could use lynx, but it's a only-if-i-have-to sort of thing.

I'm surprised too. Anybody who thinks they should get MPE for free just because they bought MC is delusional. I have a hard time modifying my world view so that this is justifiable behaviour. How many people really thought along these l

After listening to TAL's "When Patents Attack" episode in the car this morning, I'm inclined to agree with your proposal.

You probably are even less interested in adding your credit card, but if you want, there's a "Payment Information" section if you click on the "Account" button dropdown by your apple id in iTunes. I just changed my password to one more uniq

I can sympathize with you. But even suspect credit fraud is also "purchase first" "warn later". Refusing to let a new device purchase anything without a thorough check is a ridiculous idea. They could always do something like what Steam d

This is exactly what I use Live Mesh for. I sync 10s of gigs of photos between remote PCs with it. The only thing I don't like about Live Mesh is that it's very difficult to tell what it's transferring and how long it's taking. It works,

Reminds me of when Homer takes a second job at the Kwik-E-Mart to pay for Lisa's pony. I'll work from midnight to eight, come home, sleep for five minutes, eat breakfast, sleep six more minutes, shower, then I have ten minutes to bask in L

FYI, this thing needs to talk to twitter, so if you have disconnect.me or something similar installed, you need to allow it to communicate with twitter before you see anything. Otherwise you get a nice off-white box in the middle of the scr

"When managers fail to communicate" would be a better way of framing the topic.

At our work we sometimes have unofficial rewards for reaching goals (e.g., as a team if we reach X number of bugs we get doughnuts). I joke with my co-workers that we should immediately stop finding bugs once we reach X, since anything furt

What problems have you run into? I recently switched over to 2-factor auth and while it's working fabulously I'd be interested to learn about any problems I could run into.

There could be places you could use it (think of the unit portraits in RTS games like Starcraft). Not to say it would be worth the effort, but there are niche use-cases.

Google Maps works correctly if you get directions to "Round Valley State Park". Bing Maps still shows the error if you use the name of the park. Mapquest, I couldn't get it to find the park at all (it kept trying to find locations near me).

Taking this even further, what if an ISP partnered with Google/Facebook/Twitter/whatever to expose their services on an "internal" box, and thusly provide an extreme "basic internet" ISP package that didn't allow you to leave the ISP's netw

This can be taken too far. Imagine clicking on a mailto: link in your browser and being taken to email - while you're there, you read a few emails and end up back at your inbox. You're done, and you're "at the top" of the app. You want t

But at it's root most serious games today are designed to exploit the mechanisms of addiction. I don't think this is entirely a bad thing, it may even be beneficial to a limited extent. But if you eventually want to make your own art and c
