Almost always, IME. The bank may even charge a service fee (to their own customers) on top of whatever fee the guest ATM charges. This probably comes out to no more than a few dollars, but it does make the option to pay +4% at POS more com

Asus. I've had a rock solid WL-500Gp and 2 WL-520gU's. They're running DD-WRT, but the stock firmware would probably be ok since the hardware's been excellent. I'm considering the RT-N66U next[1] which is a little pricey but ranks well o

When I think "powered solely by gravity" I think of something like a hydro electric plant which can generate more energy than is required to operate it. At any rate, the phrase was written by Enpundit, not GravityLight. Their indiegogo pag

It depends on the type of LED. Back when I was playing with them, Luxeons had a 180 degrees beam pattern while Crees were 70 degrees and neither had a built in lens like the cheap ones do (they used some kind of gel cover). They really sho

A false positive on a facebook algorithm warrants an entire "my liberties are being trampled" article? All follow-up notifications are obviously automated dominoes falling from the initial warning; why the feigned surprise?

It's good to see sharp developers like Anders Hejlsberg spearheading this. I really hope this means we'll get LINQ sometime in the future; good to hear generics are on the way.

They need to avoid the trend of using that suffix to mean "enthusiasm"; the compound word does not conventionally mean what they intend. Yes, languages evolve, but the etymology doesn't remotely support it.
