Are you trying to say that debugging weird network problems with your PS3 is as fun as playing the game?

by modoc 17y ago
It's for people who think that setting it up themselves would take more than $129 worth of time and/or frustration. There's nothing wrong with that. I ran into a very odd networking issue with my XBox 360. A combination of it and my netwo

Honestly, this isn't that bad. IMHO this isn't different than an car dealer charging $100+ for an oil change. There are people who can't/don't want to do it themselves, so it makes sense to pay someone else to do it. (Don't even talk abo

I have a very healthy diet, I work out almost daily, and love my job, wife, and life. Still a night owl.

I'm a night owl. Even if I'm underslept and am tired during the day, I have the most energy and awake feeling at night. If I went to bed when I was tired, it would be 3-5 AM almost every night. Unfortunately I'm not yet able to sleep unt

I built 10MinuteMail as an exercise to learn the JBoss Seam framework. I'm very glad people like it and find it useful. There are a number of great temporarily mail services out there, each with different features, strengths, and weaknesse

Part of it is being my own boss, working on stuff I choose. But honestly a big part of it is the potential for profits to scale independently of, or at least at a very high ratio to, my effort/time. Working for someone else you'll never ma

I guess you and I have differing opinions on what "real problems" are. Personal finance, yup. Facebook feed, not so much. Out of people who use Mint and who use YouTube, I'd bet many would pick Mint over YouTube if they had to pick one. Ho

If I woke up tomorrow and one of those sites was down for good, Mint is the one I'd miss the most.

Measurably less than "less than 10kg"? Yes, I understand that air at 30psi weighs more. Let's assume that the tires hold 3 liters of air (standard for a mt. bike, the yike looks like it holds a lot less actually). The 30psi will add 3.75

"How heavy is a YikeBike? The YikeBike weighs less than 10kg with a full battery and air in the tyres" And how much does it weigh with a drained battery and flat tires? :)

Large SQL scripts, large images/video (I have one web app where the project is 1.3 GB), PSDs, PDFs, web apps that allow you download binaries (installers, software, etc...). All in all, I'd say that 70% of projects I've worked on have had f

I've found Claros InTouch to be better than (better interface than) Squirrelmail and (less buggy than) Roundcube.

I get along great with my family, and love them very much. However I moved out when I was 16 and have lived on my own since. I have an independent nature and it's important to me to support myself and provide for myself as much as I'm abl

Running a mail system for 10 people is a lot easier than running one for a few million.

The difference is that you can know what's wrong and fix it (assuming you're able). Also, over the past 2+ years, my mail server has had less downtime than GMail, and any outages were easy for me to diagnose and fix. I like feeling in con

It really depends on what they ascertained their needs as. Perhaps they don't feel they need the additional protection, or they have another backup scheme in mind. If their solution works for them (which is seems to) then indeed, for thei

The problem with increasing the price of gas is you hurt the poor most of all. Honestly, jacking up the price of gas isn't going to change my driving habits at all, but doubling the cost of gas (for example) will absolutely impact the budg

Perhaps you haven't really paid attention to how much endurance and power Lance Armstrong brings to the table, even late in a multi-stage race. In the history of biking there have been very few people with his abilities. Seems like a poor

Afghanistan is having massive food shortages and food prices are through the roof. Hunger is a VERY serious problem there. Growing corn for biodiesel would make very little sense.

Works out poorly for most women who then wouldn't get a chance at the podium in the majority of sports. I mean it's fine with me, I'm a male who's not too into sports, but...:)
