I put this together over the summer, and have had it tracking prices for lots of different SSD models. Prices fluctuate quite a bit, so I added alerts so you can be automatically notified when prices fall below a set level.

No, because the automated online system erroneously rejects the activation.

This. This is exactly the point. It is a really safe bet that in a few years I'll be sitting at the telephone activation screen after paying for another version of Windows and upgrading a motherboard, cursing as I enter the sixth block of

OK. The primary application that I need Windows for is Quickbooks Enterprise. I also still use my Windows Photoshop license since it was expensive, and not transferrable to OS X. My primary operating system is already OS X, and I only us

I have Pixelmator, and I think it's a good 60% solution, but it's no Photoshop. For example, the other day I fired it up to make constrained rectangular marquee selections, and it can't do that. That doesn't sound like a big deal, but I w

OS X is actually my primary operating system. There is some software I still need Windows for though, like Photoshop and Quickbooks Enterprise. I guess I could upgrade that software, but I am not paying thousands for new features I won't

I'm talking specifically about Lortab, which contains Hydrocodone.

I think it would be worth at least that, probably more. But that time is not now.

It's not off limits. However, if one does it without at all acknowledging the massive problem that feminism has been addressing then it looks a lot like a tactic to prevent any serious discussion of male privilege. In the context of sexy

For it to be true, there'd have to be some evidence that women generally were forcing it on men. So in order for something to be privilege it must be forced on the other gender? So lets examine some items on the male privilege checklist

Note that you entirely ignore my actual point, which is that you have taken a discussion about sexism and male privilege and tried to make it about you and your concerns as a guy. And that your behavior is common enough that somebody took

Could you help me better understand the theory that circumcision results from female privilege? It doesn't result from female privilege, it is considered a non-issue and discounted because of female privilege. There is plenty of evidence

You say that I am blaming the victim, then in your link, the related story is as follows: First of all, the obvious point is that women's intuition, while not entirely the stuff of myth, is not so powerful that it can automatically separat

This argument is so common that it appears on the "Derailing for Dummies" guide: http://derailingfordummies.com/#butbut (Note that they include as an example your false equivalence between circumcision and female genital mutilation.) Th

And the majority of cases it's much worse than the male equivalent. FGM often results in all or part of the clitoris being removed. As a circumcised male, I generally believe that FGM is much worse than the male equivalent, even though it

Murder is an incredibly rare occurrence in most countries and social environments. On the other hand, women are a huge majority among rape victims, and this is not exceptional: 5 to 10% of all women are sexually abused at some point (depen

Wouldn't it be trivial to create a female privilege checklist? For example, while women may be asked to smile by random people (44), they are murdered by random people far less often than men, representing only 21% of victims. Or, while f

I find these articles boorish. When I was a little boy I distinctly recall every stranger I met telling me how handsome I was because it's a superficial complement that can be delivered without great insight. Aunt's used to tell me that I

In fairness to Stewart, his calculus book is actually pretty awesome. I had a class that used another book, written by one of the professors, and went out and bought another copy of Stewart's book because I could actually follow it. He do

They do that stuff because it doesn't really cost money, and because if they don't, they will always have empty tables. It's as simple as telling the existing staff to go do it. The good website you are describing probably costs at least $
