For the most part, I agree with the general sentiments in this thread (this is abuse of github), but the ability to change already distributed music is a great idea. It would be really cool to open your music software and be able to listen

I enjoy my Ratatat station on Pandora. It has very few vocals to distract me. They are just a torrent of noise without much I only play it when I'm working so my brain knows what time it is. If you listen to metal, I would recommend Machin

Very cool. I normally despise April Fool's, but this made today worth it.

In this video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DfHyGD7_pM&t=4m45s ), the narration is heard as they "worked it out" that the car would fully discharge at around 55 miles, but the visual portrayed is that of Clarkson actually being surp

A little out of my budget at the moment, but I can definitely see the potential market. My coffee was getting cold just as I was reading this.

I realize that "food grade" stainless steel can mean many things, but I'm sure that if you contacted them, they would have no issues with giving you specifics on it. As for the interior material, it shouldn't ever be an issue unless you ser

It's always good to see news like this when you first wake up. Not my country, but just knowing that some courts in the world can rule intelligently on these issues gives me hope.

I strongly agree. And while it would have been nice to update the standard prior to this change, in practice that would ensure that the change didn't happen for a long time, if ever. By having most of the major distros in on this we can be

Updates have always been automatic through Software Update. I have never manually downloaded an update for Xcode. I have been a staunch Apple supporter for years, but lately their anti-hacker stance has become more and more obvious. If you

That was definitely the one that stood out the most to me. It's always one of the first movies that comes to mind when I'm thinking about color in film.

I currently run a free amazon micro instance with FreeBSD and haven't received any surprise charges. As long as you respect the boundaries of the free instance, you should have no problems.

Apple could easily leverage this to their advantage by selling an optional external drive and marketing it appropriately. Or they could design the bay to accommodate an optional battery that would be factory installed.

I can totally vouch for this. My 5,3 MBP only got about 4 hours max when brand new as long as I was running OS X and had the power-saving video mode selected. Running Debian, I usually see around 2 hours if I'm lucky.

My only complaint with my MBP keyboard is the lack of a ctrl key on the right side. It's my only real complaint about the laptop in general. Everything else is just a quirk.

I tend to value my friends and my own moral code much more than I value the moral code of lawmakers. I won't say it's OK to break the law, but when there is a conflict, I will always recommend that you follow your own higher law. Of course,

Over the last year or so, I have significantly lessened my consumption of alcohol, and it has greatly increased my quality of sleep, but I was never one to oversleep because of drinking anyways. I will usually wake after only 4-5 hours afte

I believe the major issue right now is Red Hat. I can't find the emails detailing the issue right now, but apparently for applications like Django, they are worried about long term support in RHES for python 2.4 or 2.5 for at least another

I fail to see the misogyny in that line or anywhere in the op. "Banging on her" doesn't imply any sort of hatred towards women; it more brings to mind a time when you and your sexual partner collapse at the end of a session soaked in sweat

Obviously, the effects of caffeine are dose dependent like any other drug. At low doses (varies by person), you will often achieve lower anxiety, boosted confidence, and a positive overall effect on you mood. If you exceed a certain limit t

While my method isn't as secure as your most likely is, I prefer a simpler algorithm based upon the site name. I can perform my algorithm in my head and enter a password quickly and without having to refer to a terminal or another program.

ICANN is easily manipulated and/or a shill. As has been shown very recently with the domain confiscations, ICANN cannot be trusted. We need an organization that is similar to ICANN but totally transparent and directly accountable to the pub

While I agree with your general point, I disagree with the idea that there is currently any accountability in our government's regulatory bodies. Regulatory agencies (FDA, FCC, DMV, etc) are set up in theory to remove micromanaging burdens
