Yikes! Looks like that; I've tried logging in via a proxy and it worked. Never thought they would filter me out this way, saying it's "technical difficulties". Is there a way to contact them? They don't reply when I sent via Feedback form i

What's wrong with OKCupid's matching algorithm for me is that I can't get to use it at all! I just can't log in. I've been trying for the last 2 months, they just keep saying "Sorry, we're having technical difficulties right now. Check back

If you considered ThinkPad X1, why not X220? I wonder how they achieved that good battery life in Z series, given that they use standard-voltage CPU (as X1 and X220 do, too)

What does Windows update have to do with IE usage? Anyway, "no updates for pirated Windows" is a myth I hear repeated, but last time I checked Windows Update doesn't require passing Windows Genuine Advantage check.

Opera worked well on crappy dial-up connections. Then, you begin to appreciate its other features (e.g. first browser with tabbed browsing etc.) Then you use it by force of habit until it pisses you off in a major way, like not rendering th

Meanwhile in Russia: http://www.liveinternet.ru/stat/ru/browsers.html IE is around 20% I wonder why Russia leads the way moving off IE. My guess: in corporate sector pointy-haired bosses don't actually have control over which programs sys

No, there isn't. But it brought me so much joy to figure that the core of what I have learned about computers in the university can be conveyed in one small book, in such simple language and with so gentle learning curve! It starts off with

Z5xx series Atoms ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Atom_microprocess... ) had PowerVR GPUs (they call it GMA 500, but they have nothing in common with Intel's own GMA's!), the ones that are normally used with ARM CPUs. Sony Ma

How critical is the Adobe AIR technology to the functioning of this app? I'm not sure if it is a good thing to rely on since it seems to be laggy and Linux support was discontinued: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Integrated_Runtime#cit

What's the difference between X1 and X220, again? I really wish Lenovo would get its act together with its product lines, because it's nearly the only company besides Apple that makes hardware I can love, but it really takes time to unpack

The march of lithographic manufacturing looks fascinating, considering we are already so close to atomic scale: Van der Waals radius of the atom of silicon is 0.21 nm. So next year our transistors will be 100 atoms wide?

Chrome Stable gets 100/100 too, and has been for quite some time. However, the final page didn't look exactly like the reference rendering. Now it does.
