I still haven't tripped over my Magsafe cord, but I love being able to wave the cord in the general location of the port and see it snap into place.

Access to a photocopier was the holy grail for D&D kids in the 80s, even with all the non-repro blue maps TSR switched to.

Yes, almost as much as I hate iPhoto.

I still want something like a 11" or 24" e-ink panel in a photo frame for the wall. Show a nice dashboard at times or rotate artwork on it.

Yeah it's clearly sold with the razor / razor blades (or printer / ink) pricing but I see a lot of people buy them as wifi-only devices.

Yeah I've run IP Webcam on crappy Huawei Glory phones that were cleared out at $7.99. Works okay with Zoneminder too. You can use ScreenFilter to bring the screen brightness down to nearly zero.

Nope. There are plenty of those but phones like the LG Fuel run KitKat. Multiple "black friday" sales have those at $9.99, but they've also been on the same sale at different times outside of black friday.

It's pretty amazing to me that there are pretty regular sales of of crappy no-contract Android 4.X phones for under $10. Here's a current one: http://www.target.com/p/brightspot-zte-zinger-prepaid-cell-p...

It's questionable whether it's worth doing an iPhone version. Most iPad kid apps aren't but I think this one might be worth it, since it appeals to more adults as well. The ability to make ringtones adds a lot of phone appeal

As an indie kid-friendly app developer with iOS and Android apps - don't do Android. You'd be much better off financially doing another iOS app.

That's my thought too, especially since I lug 2 iPads with me for testing.

The Hyper-V requirement is kind of a pain - or rather, the requirements to run Hyper-V are a pain. On non-server versions of Windows, it's only available on Windows 8+ Pro / Enterprise. So anyone with Windows 7 or non-Pro Windows

If you think that having an Emmy, degree from Harvard, and a slot on the NYT best-seller list makes you any more qualified for a job at the Container Store than a 19 year old high school dropout with 2 years of McJob experience, you might b

Two to three weeks. That's all the company would give you if they laid you off. It's also not unheard of for companies to terminate someone immediately when they give notice.

Nope. You need to purchase new (late 2013 or newer) hardware to get it.

From my last experience with CrashPlan, it'd take me a year to upload my photos.

But you can get a low-spec Jelly Bean phone for $20, with charger, wifi, bluetooth, camera, and battery. I love my Raspberry Pi's (and PogoPlugs) but cheap Android phones are pretty attractive devices too, especially ones that can be r

I used to volunteer with the American Red Cross, mostly going out to help people that were displaced by fires in their home. It was an amazing contrast to see. Almost every time we had a fire in subsidised housing units, they would be decke

Yep. Even in my area I could go to 2-5 startup events a week but so much of it just feels so fake and full of hanger-ons that just want to be associated with startups. It is nice to get out once in a while, but I get a lot more out of virtu

If you have a local makerspace / hackerspace, check with them. We get quite a few decommissioned servers donated to ours but we generally don't have much use for them. Noise and heat we can sorta manage, but the power usage is a b

My high school had 12 terminals on a TRS-80 Model 16 running Xenix. It was mostly used for a COBOL class. 6-8 MHz 68000. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRS-80#Model_16.2C_Model_16B.2C...

ABS is a sturdier plastic that's more resistant to heat, light, water, etc. The Dremel can only do PLA. The major difference when printing is that ABS shrinks when it cools so you need to keep the base of the print hot to keep it from
