cycling is a close second. i used to live close enough to walk daily (~ 18min walk). i did it every day, through the chicago winters. we moved slightly farther so it is closer to a ~ 30m walk, and now cycling is more efficient since it is c

my nearby Six Flags (in Gurnee, IL) does this via discounting. If you want to go on a less popular day (weekdays towards the end of August after school has started, for instance), you can get discounted tickets on their website. Still full

I wonder about the range of the remote. Right now I can keep my Apple TV in a media closet and use an IR extender with the remote. Will BT 4.0 work 40+ feet away through walls?

Depends. I like being able to schedule rides to the airport in advance, so I know exactly when I'm going to be picked up. And the rate will be pre-determined.

My mean pauses are a few hundred micros. Standard deviation is slightly more (300-500 micros), with a max of a millisecond or two.

To clarify, Azul's Zing does have pauses, but they optimized the crap out of them (the pauses are more time-to-safepoint rather than GC pauses). GC time wrt application stopped time is constant regardless of heap size. (I'm an A

I agree. I've long thought that a solution to the "gay marriage" "problem" would be for states to get out of the marriage business and just allow one adult to specify another adult as the legal party for all the thi

Or, if you're patient, just wait for them to show up on Netflix and watch there.

I would surmise that they have data based on plays from other streaming services that suggests that plays for new releases spike around when that release happens. Unless a hit is generated, plays might level off.

I had pre-ordered in March of 2013, and tested it upon receipt of the device that September. Glad to know support now exists, but the device was sent to a thrift shop many many months ago. No worries on a refund now, it was just frustrating
