   I actually don't see why this is so bad. There are only a handful of carriers and and I switch every 5 or 6 years at this rate. Right now I can enjoy a new phone, as I just did with a new blackberry, for free if I extend my contract, which

   Seriously, this. I'm very happy people wanted to give them some money so they can hack all summer with no financial worries, but this is just too much. This won't go anywhere, even most of the people in this tech community won't use it, let

   Don't base it off this one angry guy. This kind of thing happens extremely rarely, and their support team is top notch. Aside from that the ease in setup, scalability and supported add-ons make for a very pleasurable deployment

    Very glad to see a blackberry app coming out. Anyone know if it will have a built-in pdf reader? It really should, as BB doesn't natively open them, and other readers aren't great.

    It seems like there are a decent amount of misconceptions people have about sous vide cooking. Everyone should have a look at the sous vide primer here http://www.cookingissues.com/primers/

    Alright, first of all, not it isn't. The senate has a ton of horrible, nonsensical bills that are introduced, but they never see the light of day. This is just linkbait and a two paragraph explanation of some obscure McCain bill that nobody

    I don't see why that's worth a downvote but I agree, all I see it being useful for is having friends leave notes so that if I'm somewhere new, someone might have left a suggestion as to what I should do/eat/see there

    Now its strange, I can downvote some to -5, I didn't see any -5's to downvote further and some -4's are invisible. Do posts get wiped if they barrel to -4 fast enough?

    Try the test at an off-peak hour. Cable speeds go down as usage in the surrounding area picks up. My 30mbps is usually 12 or so in the evening and the full 30 at night.
