Hotmail is a complete and utter mess; short passwords, constant account breaches, spam, spam, spam - I wouldn't throw stones.

Ironic and sad having to do this has become so commonplace nobody even blinks even more so considering the subject. I refuse to use region specific links like that. Sure the two are separate channels but breaking up the world into specific

That was over my head but it did remind me of my sound system engineer career days (it lasted a week). All I remember is for some reason odd trans harmonic distortion sounds good but even trans harmonic distortion doesn't.

They look so clean did they get that way through lack of use or were they restored I wonder? I can't imagine the night janitorial crew giving a spritz and wiping down those workstations with all the buttons and switches.

The link is dead. By the way I've heard other slot techs (I'm a slot tech) say IGT asks new employees if they have any ideas and will buy their idea off them. IGT created SAS (slot accounting system) protocol which a lot of casinos use.

Thanks, I was just going to ask what is considered a line it sounds silly but I couldn't understand if a "line" was the full length of a screen at a certain resolution no matter if it was filled with characters. I know a space (spacebar) i

That's what I was thinking and if it does I bet it will start in London due to all the security cameras.

One big reason Android is it's easier to modify such as rooting it, Apple can be jailbroken but I'm not sure about Windows phone. People have suggested I try Big Launcher, Launcher 7, Simple Home which I may try to see if my dad likes one

The sad thing is he could have bought a $5 piece of junk at the pawn shop smashed it to bits then showed Paypal a picture of that.

I don't own one but what I have seen I like such as the application buttons instead of tiny icons that Apple an Android use. I bought my mom an ipod touch xmass 2010 and my dad an Android phone this xmass but both (in their late 60s) have t

As a Canadian I worry more about US media corporations influencing Canadian politicians which leads to laws being passed. Bev Oda being the the example of an MP that money can buy. It's bad enough to have DMCA, HDCP, copy protection up the

Even way back in the mid 90s debated getting a Pentium Pro (two CPU) because I couldn't see how a CPU could keep getting faster. But I think I needed Win NT which was too expensive and I was still new to Linux.

Yeah we use IE6 (on four year old laptops no less!) because there are applications that we Techs use that the company won't replace and the applications can only be used in IE6 apparently. Waiting for five or ten minutes for a failed Adobe

The HN website can do what they want but it seems anti-democratic to muzzle opinions and debate by making comment box text unreadable making the text colour lighter, just because some people (a few downvoters) find the words uncomfortable.

I read somewhere (never can remember) wearing sunglasses fools your thymus (?) into reacting as if it's dark outside so less melanin is produced making you more likely burn.
