Yes and no. My problem is I thought I loved what I was doing, but there were just little issues with it. Everything has little issues, sure. I never let myself realize until recently that these were problems that were actually harming my qu

The GameCube was the cheapest console in the last generation and still had comparable hardware. Although it didn't have a DVD player, I'm not seeing why the Wii sold as much as it did if you're going off price alone.

As a soon to be first time job hunter (beyond internships): how do I find jobs that aren't 50 hr+/wk death marches? Should I consider government? I say this because the internships I've already done I've been encouraged to work weekends.

Very true, but were I to wear a helmet or neck airbag helmet I probably wouldn't wear one that was objectively worse at protection than another. I figure if I'm going to look like a dork either way, might as well go with the safest option?

Saw a demo of this where the dummy fell off the front of a bike and the dummy fell right on its face. The helmet doesn't seem to protect the dummy's forehead, not getting all the way in front of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7Oud3iGX

Considering "music" is always one of the most common answers to this question, and undoubtedly something you've tried before, you might also want to consider "no music". Time and time again I've realized how much I get invested in whatever
