RE: Lack of haptic feedback - There's an app for that - https://www.haptictouchbar.com/ It's not great (that the feedback is in the touchpad and not the touchbar is disconcerting), but it's better than no fee

Agreed - As someone who got rid of cable and even ditched the OTA antenna (in the US), I couldn't watch any live coverage. Since the news broadcasts (which are plentiful for cord-cutters) left the actual event-centric coverage to the N

Attend a local Maker Faire - There's such a broad amount of creative energy covering every interest, I'd think it sure to spark/fuel any passions. I'm a bit of an introvert myself, but I can't help but talk to folks

Knowing who to talk to about a given issue (for a large company). Since you say "new career", I assume you're starting a new job somewhere. I work for a fairly large organization that's heavily silo'd with regards t

If it's something to read - it goes to Pocket. If it's something to do, it goes to ToDoist. Sadly, both are overflowing with things to read and do that I'll likely never get around to.

Is that true when you factor in utilities? IE - Where does all the water come from? At least in the burbs, you can set up your own well.

An ID/Medical/Etc card scanning/viewing mobile app. Something that will nicely scan my wallet cards and allow me to easily bring the scans up and (if needed) email/print/photocopy the images of them on demand. Bonus

Arguments for/against the process aside, I could see this as a result of evolution. Tribes who's members remained social while sick would be more likely to spread disease and self-destruct?

And yet, have you seen the 4k content out there? Breaking Bad was awesome, but is that really better in 4k than, say BSG or Planet Earth? I bought a 4k TV to use as a monitor several months back and started researching content - Most of it

Yes, but is there any data about the ambient pressure inside a building VS outside? There's a whole lot of horsepower dedicated to HVAC units, do they really hit a zero equilibrium?

There's plenty of use cases for low-storage iPhones. Think enterprise customers, mobile point-of-sale devices, field researchers, reporters.

Something my team started recently that we rather like is to put together a Kanban-style board (Trello would be perfect for this - we used Taiga as the tool had to be in-house) with cards like "How do I do build X?" and "How

Others have chimed in on the ease of bulb installation VS ease of switch installation. One other point is that the most you can get from a remote switch-only installation is variance in brightness, no RGB control.

Per the parent though, (at least for NHL) if the game is on national TV, it's blacked out on NHL Gamecenter. Fortunately, NHL isn't all that popular, so there's only a few games on national networks each week (of the dozens o

The problem is, if Blizzard knows of an infringement and fails to attempt enforcement, anyone can come along and legally claim "Hey, they didn't hassle this (small time) guy, so they have no right to hassle us". So the well-m

Does this work with Plex for XBox One? If so, can you do a party chat while it's running? That'd be the awesome hacky answer to 360's great Netflix Party Mode.

And not on network TV. PQ is not nearly as good as regular TV, you can't easily time-shift or pause (spoiled by TiVo). I've always started my NHL season trying NHL Gamecenter and always ended up canceling it within a few weeks and

Also, 'reality tv' is ridiculously cheap to produce compared to normal broadcast fare. Minimal crew, minimal writing, low (if any) 'actor' compensation. Usually shot in cheap locations.

The issues with an external battery are: Phones tend to die when you're using them. This means you're either constantly plugging/unplugging, or you have a cable hanging out of your pocket all the time. My LG G3 can easily dra
