My home is heated with resistive heating (heating elements in furnace + a few baseboard heaters).

It's not necessarily waste. My home is heated using an electric furnace. The heat given off by GPU mining offsets the furnace. It's essentially "free" electricity while mining during winter months.

That's just poor software by websites that hang when polling MtGox. Much better would be asynchronously grab MtGox's quote and cache the lastest value.

Here we go again, another "flying is a privilege" argument. Flying is a right: " A citizen of the United States has a public right of transit through the navigable airspace." From http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/49/40103 I choose t

"There are some exceptions: Amazon currently charges California residents sales tax" I hate this incorrect terminology. Amazon merely collects sales tax on behalf of the state. The state is the one charging the sales tax.

I can't pinch zoom this site from an iPad? Why do sites go out of their way to disable useful features?

The electricity needs to be factored in, it's not free.

They are saying it gets 261 miles for one gallon of gas plus some unstated electricity. They are counting the electricity as free. It's a completely bogus metric. I see a lot of Chevy Volt owners claim they get 400 MPG when they run on elec

I agree. They are treating the electricity like it's free (cost and environmental impact). I see a lot of Chevy Volt owners bragging about their "300 MPG" economy. If you have a dual fuel source vehicle (hybrid) and ignore one of the fuels,

Unrelated, but their mobile version of the page is utterly unusable on my iPad 1. Wished they just served up the non-mobile version.

Not true. When making a purchase using a credit card, you are not giving "arbitrary access to your bank", rather you are giving access to your line of credit. There's a difference. In the case of fraud, the credit card company still has to

The flight time requirement for a commercial pilot is only 250 hours. All flight instructors are commercial pilots. They are more common than you think.

And their mobile version of the page is utterly crap on a mobile device. I wished they just served up the normal version and ignor the user agent.

Off topic, buy I really wish that 9to5mac would just serve up the normal desktop version content, instead of the mobile version. On my first gen iPad their website is utterly unusable.

Unrelated but why can't I pinch zoom on bgr.com's site? They must be severing up a mobile version. I really wish these sites would just serve up the normal non-mobile version.

And why should one have to reinstall the OS on a brand new machine? I don't need mod or install new firmware on my new car. I don't need to swap parts on my new washer machine. No, a PC, car, washer machine should just work, as purchased. T
