Minor typo -- "What category whould you like?" should be "What category would you like?" Also, I'd like to dig down further into the features. For example, with TVs, I want to search only for those that are 1080P&#

How do I know I can trust you and your site? If you are legit, then how can I trust you won't pull a Target or Home Depot on me? Assuming I use your service to buy something with an account I already have with one of your partners, how

I wonder -- does scratch removal software help in such cases? It seems to do wonders with certain cases of slide scans, so I wonder if it helps with these kinds of wet-mount scans as well.

On the iPad, what happens to the city names after the initial launch of the game? How do I know what I'm looking for?

Might be nice to check what browser someone is using before you do a lengthy init process, so that you don't waste their time and yours.

Doesn't work. That requires you to pull a door open with your feet, using the strongest muscles in your body but in a way in which they are weakest.

First off, Windows isn't the greatest client for trying to get good timesync. The way the OS usually handles interrupts isn't sufficiently precise and accurate. That said, it's not uncommon for real-hardware Windows clients

With appropriate configuration, you can get ntpd to settle down and consider itself to be fully synchronized in a matter of seconds after startup. You just have to configure an adequate number of upstream time servers, add judicious use of

Somewhat. Years ago, the answer was to run NTP on the host and use VMWare Tools to help ensure that good quality time was served to the clients. That's when the earlier versions of the page at < http://support.ntp.org&#x2

PTP is a good choice for synchronizing clocks on a per-segment basis, but it doesn't work across a WAN and there are lots and lots of devices out there that don't support it. NTP is good for doing time sync across the WAN, but to

Okay, fair enough. But what about the full subject?

Doesn't work on the web page at http://gigaom.com/2014/04/29/supreme-court-reverses-patent-j... The subject line gets cut much too short, and the URL gets trimmed to the root level of the domain.

Speaking as the former Sr. Internet Mail Administrator for AOL, there is none. When I was there, we actively worked very, very hard to make sure that we did everything we should do to keep our stupid AOL users from inappropriately hurting

I live in Austin, and I have had U-Verse for months. I've got ~40Mbps down, and that's pretty reliable and with low latency. I had AT&T sales reps come by the house a few weeks ago to try and sell me U-Verse, and I was able t

Speaking only for myself, I want a few different things out of a service like this. For one, I want an article fingerprinting technology. One that can tell that multiple different sites are talking about the same original post, and not rea
